His hopes were not of earth, and sought no end
This side of Immortality He rests:
Mourn not for limits true we low d him
And he trustworthy all our love, true too
We had not locke for this, when side by side
We roam d with him the banks of yon blue stream
Together read, and thought, and talk d. and wrote
And plannd the schemes Of future life,
It was not in our hearts to think that such fate
Sbould end them ALL Twas wrong; for what IS Lille
But mockery? And should we mourn because

Shall make US greve the space that parts us yet
And weep no more for thee, "but for ourselves.

THE COURAGE OF RELIGION.
1t was the deep seated feeling of piety, which
in the earlier ages, when cruelty and bigotry
spread dark mantle over every land, sustained
in the hour of persecution and DEATH the glori-
Gus martyrs in the cause of Christianity. They
worshipped the truth, and believed it to be their
duty to promuIgate it in every land. They
were not deferred by brides, ridicuIe, SCOTS, re-
proaches menace, imprisonment, or death in
lingering torments, from pursuing the straight
path which duty pointed ont They acted while
on earth, according to the dictate OF their con-
sciences, and in obedience TO what they believ-
ed to be the mandates of the Almighty-and we
cannot doubt but that they have received glo-
rious reward.
And in the present age, what feeling is it that
prompts individuals of both sexes, to leave their
homes, where they were surrounded by all the
blessings of fletcher kindred, to whom they
are attached by the ties of friendship, and graf
itude-the happy soil where they first drew
breath and which is endeared to themb by thou
