Do Idespair2-can Icomplain,
That Jesus now from me is fled2
Will not my Saviour come again,
Or must dwell among the deaH
Each gentle breeze. which fans the grove
Tells me of better joys than these;
And bids me look to heaven above
My fears to quell, my God toplease.
Can forget the silent shade,
Where off in sadness retire,
And lift my eyes to heaven for aid,
To taste the sweets of sacred fire?
NY soul, in SORROW Oft find,
And then raise broken prayer
TO heaven, that this my troubled mind
May find relief and enter there.
Sweet Comforter Of Life, draw near,
And help my faiuting, mourning soul;
Guard me alike from every fear
That Ger my guilty conscience rolls.
Sometimes Tread the sacred page,
And think that fate, and arm decree,
Hath bound in chains the hannah age,
And planned all from eternity.
And then / search and End Il plain
That we are free, and act with ease;
That We can sit, and rise again,
And guide our actions as we please.
o, once my hope was bright and clear,
And then knew not sorrows pain,
But now stand with trembling fear
Overwhelmed, fast bound in Satan's chair
now am but stranger here
On earth, since heaven from me is hed,
The prize, the hope, once held 80 dear,
And all,that once did live is dead.

To ask their God, in fervent prayer,

HEALTH AND LONGEVITY.

We are not ignorant that the question
has been agitated, whether the morning
air, is, after all, more heahhful than that Of
the evening". The full day of sunshine, it
is saidby some, has destroyed the vapors,
and the poisonous efluvia; and why
should not the air of the evening, ere the
long night has allowed more vapors to &C
cumulate. be healthier than that of the
morning2
But II should be remembered that every
individual Is somewhat weakened at eve
ming, whether he pereeires II or not This
IS proved by the fact, that-the contapion of
disease more readily affects a person al
this hour than at any other since if is
we'll known that our systems are accessi-
bic. in this respect in proportion to our
want OF health or yigor. Ii is also farther
proved BY the more obvious fact that the
