THE MYSTERY OF LIFE.
BY REV. JOHN oAMBoLD.

BY REV. JOHN GAMBoLD.
So many years We seen the sun,
And call'd these eyes and hands my own /;
A thousand little acts We done,
And childhood have, and manhood known
o what is life and this dull round
To tread, why was a spirit bound
So many airy draughts and Ines
And warm excursions Of the mind,
Have filled my soul with great designs,
While practice grovelled far behind
o what is thought? and where withdraw
The glories which my fancy saw
So many tender joys and woes
Have on my quivering soul had power;
Plain life with heightenng passions rose,
The boast or burden of their hour:
o what is all we feel? why fed
These pains and pleasures DER my head
So many human souls divine,
Some at one interview displayed,
So Oft and freely mixed with mine,
In lasting bonds my heart have laid.
o what is friendship? why impressed
On my weak, wrctchod, dying breast?
So many wondrous CLEANS of light,
And gentle ardors Fl ON above,
Have made me sit, like seraph bright,
Some moments on throne Of love:
o what is virtue why had I,
Who am SO low, u taste SO high ?
Ere long, when sovereign Wisdom Wills,
My soul an unknown path shall tread,
And strangely leave, who strangely fills
This frame, and wait me 10 the dead:
o what is death It's life's last shore,
Where vanities are vain no more;
Where all pursuits their goal obtain,
And life is all re-touched again;
Where in their bright result shall rise,
Thoughts, virtues, friendships, griefs, and Joy

MEssRs. WALToNs-ln an extract from
letter from Avian Stewart, in your paper
Of Sd ult. it seems to be assumed as an UNI
denable position, tina. the power given to
Congress, by the Federal Constitution, "to
regulate the commerce among the several
States" unquestionably includes the power
to " abolish the internal and Internal Amer
lean slave trade" and thus 10 give the
death Lluw to American slavery ITSELF Up
on this position, too, in introducing the ex-
tracts 10 the notice Of your readers, there
seems 10 be placed something like an edito.
rial endorsement. And the position has
been eagerly, and with undoubting conf
dence, laid hold OF, by your respected cor
respondent, " an aged Minister" who, hav-
ing quoted the provision in the Constitu-
ton, unhesiralingly ultirnis that, "In the
exercise or this power Congress have a
perfect right to interdct the internal slave
trade, and to declare, that all, who are en-
gagged in this traJe, shall be considered and
trea ted a pirates" He says, moreover,
Every one must see at once, that il Con-
gress will exercise their constitutional pow
ar, and place the home slave traffic on the
same footing with the foreign, death
blow will be given to slavery" This, too
he says Congress will do, "whenever the
people Ia the free STATES wish them 10 dc
it," He adds, in conclusion, Eere, them
we come 10 point, and are constrained to
say, that if slavery is mol scounded to death
it is because the people in the free States
will not do their duty. The sin lielh al
their door"
Now, Mcssrs. Editors, all this really
looks somewhat plausible, and quite impos-
ing. II the position thus confidently as
sumed is certainly correct, il is not seen
that the conclusion can be otherwise than
anevitable. Being certainly correct, TOO
the position must be one, the importance Vi
which, IN the present STATE Of things in OuI
country, cannot be easily overrated. Up.
on il may hang suspended the dearest tenn
p3ral interests, if not even the eternal in
tercsls, of millions Of our fellow men. Ii
is surely 10 wonder, then, that wherever
Mr.. Stewart can carry conviction of its
entire correctness, he should find nothing
like it TO convince doubling minds OF thG
praclicablity Of anil-savely measures =
or that an aged Minister" fully convin
ICED, as no doubt he is, OF its entire correct
ness, should seize il, with so much avidity

turn the horrid system Of slavery that dis
graces our land" Hence, too, the qdes

The scene ofdeaih is closed the mournlul strains
Dissolve in dying languor OH the ear;
Yet Pity wecps, yet sympathy complains,
And dumb Suspense awaits oerwhelm'd with fea
Ye lost companions Of distress, adieu!
Your tolls, and pains, and dangers are no more
The tc mpcst now shall howl unheard by you,
While Ocean smltes in vain the trembling shore.
On YOU the blast surcharged with rain and snow,
In winters dismal nights more shall beat;
Unfcli by you the vertic sun may glow,
And scorch the painting earth with baneiui heat.
No more on yon wide watery waste you stray,
While hunger and disease your life consume,
While parching thirst, that burns without allay,
Forbids the blasted rose Of health TO bloom.
What though no funeral pomp nor borrowed tear
Your hour Of death to gazing crowds shall tell
Nor weeping friends attend your sable bier,
Who sadly listen 10 the passing bell?
The tutor'd sigh, the vain parade Of woe,
No real anguish TO the soul impart;
And off, alas the tear that friends bestow,
Bellies the latent feelings Of the heart.
Yet shall Remembrance from Oblivion's veil
Relieve your scene, and sigh with grief sincere
And soft Compassion at your tragic tale
In silent tribute pay the kindred tear.

The WFLL-SrENT SABBATH.-The Sab
bath, pre-emnenlly above every other dav,
demands an individual attention to works
Of piety and love, il we would maintain a
spirit of prayer. Its stated and frequent
recurrence is evidently designed to main
tain habit Of devotion in the soul; and
would men but avail themselves of the spir-
itual privileges, and feed upon the spirilu-
al food, when SabbalS provide, Sin the
strength OF that meat" they would be ena-
bled 10 encounter the privations aud dis
fractions Of the intervening days Of secular
life, and TO raise their spiritual course 10
the Mount OF God, with patience, safety,
and comfort. As regards the Christian
world, the PROCLAMATION or observance of the
Sabbath is, respectively, one Of the surest
marks OF a corrupt or q reformed church,
As regards Christian experience, many
pious individual has testified, wlhSir Mat
thew Hale, that The co:alort of the week
was intimately connected with the strict
and spiritual observance of the Sabbath.
The Sabbath opens, as it were, vista
into The kingdom of Heaven, of which it is
reflected copy, though faint indeed and
imperfect; and therefore our relish Tor the
one, tests, not uncertainty, the degree of
our preparedness Tor the other BIZ! Sab
bath sanctitcation is not the heartless per-
lormance OF any duties, however excellent:
it is drinking into the Sabbath spirit, and
a joyful acquiescence in the permitted priv
ilege Of serving the Lord without DIS
traction. The Sabbath permits US, I'M
shockled, not only by worldly duties, but
by worldly cares and worldly thoughts, to
worship in spirit spiritual God. We
should study 10 maintain, On this sacred
day, holy serenity, sanctifed cheerful
ness, unmarried by any allowed intrusion OF
The distracting business or anxious cares Of
ordinary life. Every occupation, word and
thought, should be stamped, Holiness to
the Lord" Let US but do our part, God
being our helper let us hut study 10 pre-
serve the temple undefIed, and prepared 10
receive the heavenly vIsiiani, and the spir-
it of prayer, peace, and JOY will enlt. in
and dwell there. Let Us turn away our
foot from the Sabbath, from doing our pleas
ure OH Gods holy day; and honor him, not
doing our own ways, Tor finding our own
pleasure. nor speaking our own words ; and
then siull we delight ourselves IN the Lord ::

UKAsE, Moscow, Oct. 9Th, 1917.
During my late travels through the prov
inces, was obliged, to my no small regret,
TO listen 10 speeches pronounced by certain
Of the clergy in different parts, which con-
tanned unbecoming pra ises Of me--praises
which can only be ascrbed unto God. And
as am convinced, in the depth OF my heart
of the christian truth, that every blessing
tloweth unto us through our Lord and
Saviour Jesus Christ alone, and that every
man, be he who he may, without Christ is
full only of evil, therefore, 10 aScribe unto
me the glory of deeds in which The lrand ol
God had been evidently manifested before
the whole world, is to give unto men that
glory which belongeth unto Almighty God
alone. account it my duty, therefore, 10
forbid all such un6ecOming expressions OF
praise, and recommend 10 the holy synod,
10 give instructions to all the diocesan bish-
ops, that they themselves, and Ike clergy
under them, may. on similar occasions in
future, refrain from all such expressions of
praise, so dlsagreeahle 10 my ears; and that
they may render unto the Lord OF Hosts
alone thanksgiving for the blessings he
slowed upon us, and pray for .he outpour-
ing OF His grace upon all ofus; conforming
themselves in this matter 10 the words of
sacred writ, which requires us 10 render 10
the King Eternal, Immortal, Invisible, the
only wise God, honor and glory Tor ever
and ever. ALEXANDER,
