The matin bell is tolling,
The lnatin bell is tolIing.

The matln bell Is tolhng.
II THE CHURCH BELL of DR.. Springs brick
church makes me pious, religious, heavenl minded
and almost downright saint Every Sunday morn
yesterday more especally-it came upon
me like voice from heaven saying" What are you
doing, friend b.? Are you married yet, my boy How
is your soul getting on Are you spending your time
in vanity like the rest of the loaers Do you ever
weigh, in the balance the joys of the heaven and the
pains of the hell?'
heard DR.. Spring once, at the tail of long SER
mon, but must say that the solemn, pathetic tones
of his fine bell me the most eloquent and pow
erful sermon that ever heard proceed from that
quarter. Perhaps my want of appreciation Of the
Doctors very natural preaching may have arisen
from another and powerful cause. number OF
beautiful young ladies always attend DR. Springs
church. They are tastefully not gorgeousy dressed.
Now when l come within the verge of womans
charmed circle never can-do what may-attend
to sermons. Verify, believe if the holy apostles.
st. Peter from Pmgatoyy. or ST. Paul, from his Sc
venth heaven were to preach in such church,
could scarcely remember what portion Of the Holy
Scriptures they took their text from. Such negi-
gence know is very sinful, but to be sinner in COM
pany with lovely woman is something so enchanting
that have great doubts whether in the long run, ii
is sin at all.
trust the corporation has not concluded TO take
the Brick church yet. To silence that pathetic, So
norous, heavenly toned bcl calling the saints to
vice on the Sabbath morn, would be to cut up two
thirds of pure religious services, and large slice Of
the pious eoquence Of that venerable house.
BoorH's LIVERY SrABLEs-A GENIus.-Do you
want to hire good horse and gig to take drive
out to Nowlan'si or safe horse and wagont 60
to Rockaway? or a capital saddle horse to ride
to Harlem or any thing in that line to make the
blood play and the spirit lively2 Then try Booths
Livery Stables, l56 Crosby street. Booth is genius
IN hsline He has invented species of "extra straps
securing the whippletree to the axle in such way
to render accidents impossible. Pythagoras had q
genius for philosophy-Homer for heroic poetry
Newton for astronomy Shakspeare for the drama
Scott for the novel-Bennett for the editonal-Cook
and Davenport for electro magnetism Booth l56

BALANCE OF TRApE-MARRylNe.-The marriages
of Forces, and Rice both to English ladies' only fair
far as goes for the many husbands this country
Kemble-she picked up one of our amiable semi
milonaires in Philadelphia was Miss Watson
she did ditto-there several others whose names
we do not recolect at this particular moment. But
take them all in all, England was undoubtedly in
dsbted TO America until Nat Willis, Ned Forrest and
Tom Rice, took each an English wife, and restored
the matrimonial exchanges to par or thereabouts
Specie is now considered stationary, or if any thing it
will flow towards this country. Jim Crow exported
valuable cargo rice, the returns of which will be
made in gold and silver, the balance in matrimeny-
Metamora exported a considerable "forest," the re-
turns in ditto. Thus all parties are satisfied.
JT"A Native of Bamffshire," anonymous too, is a
