Where he has had one true woTshipper, in this
respect, Msmmon can boast his many millions
OF devotees, who have rendered him undivided
homage. though still protesting the Christian
name. Bot We do not interfere with any mode
Of worship any farther than it infringes upon
the equal rights Of all. as in the case Of the suf.
frage in this State, based upon the anti Chris
tian, anti-demoeratic principles Of Mam,non. 10

ted by the God Of truth and right. We would
not by any means infringe upon the rights Of
Mammon. We would have him hold what is
his own. bnt no more but We protest, aod We
will war as we have ever done. against his usur.
paions and monopoIiss, which nuIlify true
Christian and democratic principles.
"S PSoP'c W WIS oidies w iHsH sovereign
capacity, should forthwith cal! a convention.
and frame for themselves a democratic govern
ment. to take the place OF the present, which is
based upon the usurpations Of Mammon, in de.
fance Of democratic principles and Christianity
Yes Mammon. Of that mighty host OF spirits
damned and expelled from Hesven.-he, as
Milton shows, the lowest minded and the bases,
Of them all, has full long controlled the right ol
suffrage in Rhode Island, TO the disgrace of ils
people. 1t is shameful to US all that we lon
ger permit this east off God whose thoughts
we're always downward bent. to be the sovereign
ty Of our state. What a,sls it that We swung
from our moorings that bound US to the mon.
archy Of England. If the most grovelling spiri,
damned from Heaven is to continue TO be en-
throned among US, TO trample under foot our
birthrights and to be the dispenser Of injustice
and wrong. That we should so long bow our.
selves down, body and soul, to this most filthy
God, should cover Us with shame and confu-
sion Of face. Our failure to use our rights has
not alienated them. Ths, We have not used
them. has been our fault, If not our crime a.
gainst our own and our childrens liberties and

On the following morning, being Christmas
day, our fortunate shop-keeper equipped him.
, self in his best apparel. and, before breakfast,
Istepped across the rond, and found Mr.. Titus
Twist rubbing his eyes in bis own ga,eway.-
/ Mutual saiuts,ions, and compliments Of the
season." were exchanged in good neighborly
style. and then mine host exclaimed. There's
box here for you, Master Wsg, left by that
queer little old gentleman. I'm sure he's
cracked In he comes here yesterday. just
after dark. posting in his own carriage. Well.
he orders up any thing as we happened TO have
ready, and sets him down 10 as good dinner
as ever any gentlemen need sit down 10. though
] say il, because why, you see, our larder's
pretty well stocked at this season. So down
he sits, rubbing bis hands, and seeming as
pleased as Punch, and orders a bottle Of wine
but. before he'd been ten minutes at liable. up
he jumps, claps on his cloak and hat. and runs
smack ont o. the house, and never comes back
again ill past eleven At night, when he pays
his bill, and orders horses for six o'clock this
morning"
Ia he gone. then = exclaimed Jeremiah.
'Of, sure enough replied Titus: but he's
leh great box for you, which was just going
to send over. So, suppose you and he have !
some dealings together.
Yes said Mr.. Wsge, j shall have cause

Well, God bless him. wherever he's gone
tlark ye, neighbor-you have often heard me
speak Of having a fnend-well that's hun.
don't know why. but he's taken fancy to me
and my wifi and family. and has done for us
more than you'd believe, if was TO tell you.
However we can chat that over another day, as
| can't stop now, as Mrs. Wsg and children are
waiting breakfast. But where's the boxl III
take il with me, if You please
IL TWO the strongest fellows in my yard can
take it over its as much as they can replied
Titus. However, they shall try and hope
that you'll come over this afternoon and crack
a bottle Of my bes, TO drink this little queer old
sentlemen's health But, mind me- he's crack
I'd 10 certainty, and you'll End it ou, some Of

The box was accordingly delivered, and. on
being opened, was found TO contain dozen sep

whose store OF worldly goods exceeds their req
necessities. Those who are truly thankful fo
the blessings they enjoy will rejoice that the
have the power to dispense comfor, aroun
them, by relieving the wants Of the afflicted an
the destitute.
REMEMBER TIE POOR
The season Of gloom has arrived,
And winter is hard q, the door.
lie whispers to all, my power is revived
And tells ms remember The poor
The rich who with plenty are crown'd,
Who have an abundance in store,
With liberal hands should be found
Dispensing relief TO the poor.
O, think OF the widow in need.
Whose heart is ref to the core,
And destined in sorrow to bleed,
o think and remember the poor
Go visit the sick man in bed.
Or look at the couch on the floor.
His wife and his children no bread
And then yeu'll remember the poor
And whco so,,;p, rourJ a good fire.
