HOFE-The Anchor Ofhe Soul
Heb. vi. l9.
Hope springeth up in sorrows hour,
And lighten5 all its woes,
1t mitigates misiortune's power,
And better prospects shows.
Hope is the anchor of the soul''
Safe, steadfast, and secure;
It, beacon like, to us unfolds
The lurking ills that lure
Hope is helmet TO the brave;
The Christians polar star,
1t beams alike in hall or cave,
In mirth, in peace or war.
Hope bears the storm-tost seaman UP,
And paints his distant home;
IT'S the bright pearl in sorrows cup,
And tells of joy to come.
Hope cheers the wretched son of need,
With whisp'rings of comforts nigh,
When broken hearts no more shall bleed,
Nor babes for succor cry 4!
Hope dries Ihe weeping mourner's tear,
The oPhan's wall it quells
The imprison'd captive, lone and drear,
Hope comforts by its spells.
Hope, like ray from realms above,
Nerves and sustains the mind
1t Itspreads abroad its wings oflove,
And shelters all mankind.

ANECDOTE-CHURCH MUSIC.

In certain seaport town of Massachu-
sets, measures We're taken by the members
of the religious congregation, some thirty
years since, to introduce violincelo into the
choir, for the improvement of the music.
This was all innovation that savored too
much the theatre, to meet the appreciation of
the eldely members of the parish; ard it was
evidently opposed by their most influential
deacon. Insplte ofthe opposition, however,.
the Innovation was sanctioned by vote of
the majority; and the violincellO was intro
duced into the choir. The good deacon on
the first Sabbath of his appearance, took
his seat in his pew as usual, where he sat
with becoming gravity, and until the first
sound of the instrument was heard, when
he rose, advanced TO the outside of the pew,
and with all the gravity of French dam
cling master, danced a regular hornppe
down the broad aisle, and took leave of the
astonished congregation by dancing out Of
the hOuse.--ES8eG GAG.

The annexed beautiful lines from the Knicker
booker for April possess all the grace and delicac,
which are the characteristics of Buwer's mind.
COMPLAINT OF THE VIOLET.
By the silent foot of the shadowy hill,
We slept in our green retreats,
And the April showers were wont to frill
Our hearts with sweets;
And though we lay in lowly bower,
Yet all things loved as well,
And the waking bee left Its fairest flower,
With us to dwell.
But the warm May came in his pride to WOO
The wealth of our virgin store,
And our hearts just felt his breath, and knew
Their sweets no more.
And the summer reigns on the quiet spot
, Where we dwell; and its suns and showers
Bring balm to our sisters hearts, but not,
Oh not to ours

resentations made to him by Buck d Sherman
then left him CO. expecting that he would com.
| ply with his agreement went to your place
| and stated the facts to you and the Bank Com
| missioner. When returned, found the "Cau
ton" continued IN the paper, and no rccantation
| from Mr.. Coilinberry, had another interview
with Mr.. e. and he declined doing anything A.
bout it, stating that he co. had been threatened
by Is. a. >. with prosecution ifby means of his
(C's.) certificate, an incumbrance should be- fixed
on the Lockport property"
So it would seem that Mr. Cofiinbcrry had not
moral courage enough TO do what he acknowledge
cd to be justice towards me, but crouchcs under
the rod Messrs. Buck and Sherman hold over his
load, and permits his lbollous caution TO be pub
llshed week after week, notwithstanding no &C.
knowedges it TO have been procured by the
false representations of Messrs. Buck and Sher
man.
The obtaining a certificate from under the hand
of Register of Deeds, that certain piece of
land, recorded in his office is free from incum-
brance, when at the same time it is incumbered,
shows the Register to be either knave or fool,
and to obtain it fraudulentiy, as is set forth in
Mr.. Coffinberry's sCaution" shows the Register
to be ignorant of his own entries and files, and
crimnaly guilty of neglect of duty.
Mr.. Cofinberry alledgcs in his ''Caution" to
the public, "that said certificates were fraudu.
lcntly obtained" and yet Mr.. Coffnberry's letter
to Thomas Fitzgerald, Esq, Bank Commission.
err, of the 10th of May last, he does not charge
me with misrepresentation but says that she be-
lieved at the time of the transaction and still be-
lieves that Mr.. Brown was honest in his in
tcntions"
As appears from Mr., Edward Persons letter
to me Of the 2Sth of May last, Mr.. Coffinbcrry |
admitted that I did not misrcprescnt TO him. |
sand that no was satisfied with the statomonts I |
had made to him were truo and honest, and that |
he had been imposed on by false statements made |
to him by Buck and Sherman, and that he, Mr.. |
Coflinberry, had been threatened by Buck and |
Sherman with prosecution, if by means of his |
(C's) certificate, an incumbrance should be fired
on the Lockport property"
All of which goes to show that Mr.. Coffnbor |
ry his made false and libelous charges against me
which he has acknowledged to the Bank Com
missioner and Mr.. Edward Person, in letter to |
the former and verbally to the latter as appears
by the foregoing, since the date of his caution,
and admits that he made the charge in conse-
quence Of having been imposed on by Geo. Buck |
and Benjamin Sherman, SEQ Persons lettcr to
mel and that he burst not reednt them for fear of
a prosecution from said Buck and Sherman.
need only add that SO well satisfied is the |
Bank Commissioner Of the folly Of Mr.. Coffin
berry's "Caution," that he has received tho Sc
curity of the property referred to by Mr.. Colin
berry. JONATHAN BROWN.
