Nay, the more dark the sky may be,
And the more loud the storm may roar,
The closer will cling to tha.,
And loye theodore thee more and more.

THE YOUNG BRIDE.

Observe that slow and solemn tread,
when the young bride takes her we'd
ded one by the arm, and with downcast
looks, and heavy heart turns her face
from ssswcet home,' and all its associa-
tons, which have for years been grow
ing, and frightening, and entwining SO
I.closely around the purest and tenderest
feelings Of the heart. How reluctant
that step, as she moves towards the carr
riage; how eloquent those tears, which
rush unbiddcn from their fountain!
She has bid adieu to her h0ne! she
has given the parting hand-the part
ing kiss! With deep and struggling
emotions she has pronounced the fare
weM and oh how fond, and yet morn
full spell this word breathes! and per-
haps, It's the last farewell to father,
mother, brother, sister!
Childhood and youth, the sweet
morning Of life, with its "charms Of
earliest brids, = and estassociations,
have now passed. Now commences a
new--a momentious period ofexistence!
Of this she is we'll aware. She reads
in living haracter--uncertainty-
assuming that where all was peace
where all was happiness-where home,
sweet home, was all in all unto her..
But these ties, thesa associations, these
endearments, she has yielded, one by
one, and now she has broken them all
assunder! She has turned her face
from them all, and witness how she
clings to the arm of him, for whom all
these have been exchanged.

rof it by the banks. It is the duty Of
7 Congress TO guard against evils from,
athis source, and it is gratifying to per-
eceive that the President ofthe United

I tention to the subject, and suggested
aimportaat changes inthc existing mode
Iof collecting, keeping, and disbursting

lquestion, that it is both right, and the du-
fties Of the General Government, to COL
Meet the public dues in the legal curren-
acy OF its equivalent. and so to keep its
.funds that they will be safe while they
dremain with the government, and be
{ at its command whenever wanted for
disbursement. Fully concurring in
!. the necessity of attaining the results,
am confident that the measures neces-
sary reproduce them, be of such char
acler as will not affect in;uriouslv the
abuslness concerns orthc banking nsti-
a'tuilons of the country. One of these
measures, and the most desirable among
tthem, is the discontinuance Of the use
tot the banks as the fiscal agents Of the
General. Government, or such modi-
+ ilcallon OF their agency as will ef1ectnaI-
ny prevent them from using, for any
purpose whatsoever, the public mo-
,,neys that may be committed to them
for safe-keeping. This discontinuancc
'or essential modification Of their agen-
,cy will, ! have no doubt, prove mutu-
'a'Iy beneficial to all parties and to all
interests. The subject is now before
.Congress, and if acted on by that body
I'm the same conciliatory spirit with
(which it has been presented to them
.by the President, and with the same
sincere desire he has evinced TO arrive
"a. right conclusion, have scarcely a
doubt they will speedily dispose Of It
lin such manner rs will be safe for the
Government, satisfactory to the great

Thc Western Girls.

Oh tell me no, OF peerless girls
Who breath the air Of Grccinn Isles,
. Where brows are swept by raven curls,
And looks tell love 10 answering smiles!
But give ma those whose cheeks are famed
BY the winds he, III the west,
Whose thoughts sublime III accents bland
Revive ones visions Of the besl.
Oar western girls most surely nrc
The comeliest creatures other sex,
And skilfnl too, beyond compare,
liz arts that please you OF perplsx
With brows as raaiant as the mora,
And eyes thai glance like stars at even,
Ono look can Strike yolr hopes forlorn,
Or fill your heart with dreams of heaven.
Their lips are sweet as luto ofloYe,
When minstrel wakons up its own,
And every @o:d the soul cas move
With feelings which its bliss TO own.
In form they're delicate and 1.-THE,
And easy as the swayng reed;
And in each action chastc, aud blithe,
And graceful as the lawn at speed.
Talk not to me Of dreamy eyes,
& OF looks with lazy languor fraught,
And words which, like the south winds signs
Break not the wavclcss calm ofthought,
Our western girls have hsagis a I'd minds,
Deep feeling and strong eloquehce,
And power 10 forge the chain that binds
In dcathless bondage soul and sense.
The ladies here have many way
Peculiar to their own bright cline,
. To keep the cares of life at bay,
And rouse the soul to pleasures chime,
They can admire each splendid thought
Which, lark like, leaps towards the skies
And every strain with genius traughts,
Woos Oh and wins their sympathies.
You've seen the eagle on his wing,
High up in heaven pursue his way,
And heard the blue bird in the spring
Four to his mate his ,ardcr lay!
Well, like that eagle, soaring high,
The Vests fair daughters are in mind
And like that blue BIRDS melody,
Their accents float upon, the wind.
Night-bouhd and rayless is the heart
That can resist their witching ways
Which at such shrincs would not impair,
Its sense of beauty and lis praise.
Such heart could hear tho dreamy sigh
Of Autumn winds without chime,
And watch the glories Of the sky,
Without one thrill Of the sublime.
Let poets hymn ideal grace
And sing Of smiles beyond all price;
And vow in every form they trace
A vision fresh from paradise;
NE need 10 spirits iron, the deep,
10 ill our mind and make us blest--
For our own girls nave charms which keep
Our fancies home, here in the west,

tor, dated, January 10, 1888:
There is that intelligence and benefit
to be derived from reading a religious
periodical, which none but those who
avail themselves of lis advantages can
prize. To the man who wishes to know
what there is doing in the Christian world,
! would say, secure to yourselves the
periodical visits Of some religious publica-
ton. have, in my family, of late, ex.
perienced happy results, proceeding, in
part, from the influence of the Telegraph
viz: the hopeful conversion of several Of
my children. Experience has laugh me
that money expended for newspapers con-
tributes ien-fold more to improvement in
intelligence and good morals in a family
than if it were spent for the knick-knack'
Of fashion.

Of omnipotence for protection.

ri perceive that Congress have again put

The measure Of their folly is not yet full
Let this tyrannical act Tor rather repetition
Of previous one) nerve the arm of free,
dom to double exertion in the holy cause Of
emancipation. Let the mail, and the tables
Of Congress, groan under the weight O

now willing to; quench the last spark of

CANADIAN ArrAIRs.--It IS known, Q

CANADIAN AFFAIRs.--It is known, OF
course, to the readers Of the Telegraph,
that my principles, moral and religious,
forbid my taking any part on either side Of
the Canadian controy ersy. My object, in
any thing publish on the subject, is simply
to get the truth before the readers of the
Telegraph. twill be distinctly understood,
then, that, in any extracts taken from
whatever source to convey intelligence, for
whatever sentiments may be found blended
with the intelligence given-if such senti-
ments do not comport with the principle
that all rOar is sinful-those who utter the
sentiments must be responsible for them.
At the same time would rebuke sin on
both sides, would withhold no sympathy
from suffering humanity on either side
While my soul abhors the wickedness, il
pities the folly, and delssion, and madness
of human beings who go forth to imbrue
their hands in each others blood.
