AFTER ELECTION

The intense excitement, occasioned by
the Presidential election, is now passing
of

q And what remains

Is merely as the WORKING OF d sea,
Before a calm, that rocks itself to rest
While politicians are rejoicing or mourn
ing, that the result is as it is, the friends of
religion have occasion to rejoice that the
result has come; and that the storm has
spent its fury. AS the election fever has
been an obstacle to religious effort, it is
not improbable, that many have made it
an excuse from effort. to an extent greater
than the facts would warrant. We have
said perhaps, that is of no use to attempt
this or that duty or enterprise, while the
public mind was so deeply absorbed in
politics. -. s..-..
But that excuse for inaction is now re-
moved. Now it becomes US to. redeem
the time, that we have lost; and to let it be
seen that it was an opportunity to work
with effect, and not heart for effort, that
was wanted before. A disastrous impress
ion has been made on the public mind, so
far as its moral interests are concerned,
bv the recent. agitations And Ire church
has a great work before her, 10 regain
what she has iost. And there needs now
to be united and earnest effort fol re-
vival ofreiigion. We may well say with
I the prophet " Ye have plowed wicked
ness and reaped mighty" Sow to your
selves righteousness, reap in mercy
Break D p your faIIow ground for it is
time to seek the Lord till be come and rain
righteousness upon you.-Purltan.

CirCss passSn a sial Evidence,

The circumstances which l am about
TO relate are familiar to many living. In
some particulars have varied from the
truth but if in the relation of an event
which excited intense interest at the time
of its occurrence, shall succeed in i'm
pressing npon any one the dulusive cha
racter Of circumstan!ial evidence, my OBJ
iect will be attained. l---
Benea|l the magnificent sycamores
which bordered a lovely stream in the
southwest part Of Kentucky, company
of cmigrants had pitched their encamp-
mcnt for the night. The tents were set
up, the night-iirc threw its CLEANS upon
the water, the weary horses were feeding,
the evening repast was over, and prepa-
rations were made for repose. The par
ty consisted Of three brothers with their
families, who were vending their way TO
she new lands of the distant Missouri.
On their visages, where ague had left the
sallow traces OF its touch, few of the no.
bier traits Of the human character were
visible. Accustomed to reside upon the
outskirts Of society, little versed in its
forms, and as little accustomed to the re-
straints OF law, or the duties Of morality,
they were the iit pioneers Of civilization,
because their frames were prepared for
the utmost endurance of fatigue, and soci-
ETY. was purified by their removal. Theirs
were not the fearless independence and
frank dcmeanor which marks the homes,
backwOodsman Of our country but the
unframed license and wiley department oil
violent men, who loved not the saluiary
influence of the law, nor mingled Of choice
with the virtuous of their own species.
As they stirred the expiring fires, the
column Of light, mingled with the smoke
and cinder, that rose towards the clear
sky Of the mild May night, revealed two
: travellers Of different appearance, who
had cncampcd on the margin Of the same
stream. One was man Of thirty. Sc
veral years passed in the laborioui
practice Of medicine in a southern eli
mate, had destroyed his constitution, ant
he had come to breathe the bracing al
Of a higher latitude. The wing Of healll
had famed into new visor the waning
firstQf life. md y, was now returning !!

THE EYRE AND SWORD.

The frecman's glittering sword be blest-
Forever best the frecmun's Tyre
T,sal nag. upon the tyrant's crest,
This siirs the hcnrt like living fire;
Wei can he WELD the shining brand,
Who battles Tor his native land;
ora But when his fingers sweep the chords
aHi That summon heroes to the fray,
q, They gather at the feast of swords,

All ,tr,.l the wales and swelling hills,
Tan r.e. 'ly bloom on freedoms land,
A gisisg sra1it brcathc' and fills

Fer fhc bright coil th.,t gave him birth,
~Yke Aone Of all he loves on earth
Fox fais. trhen freedoms trumpet calls,

Forever strikes the freeman 'yrc!
Ais burning heart In may not lend
70 serve a doting despe,s sway
A sups4iant knee he will not aend,
Before those thugs Of brass and clay"
When wrong and min call TO war,
He knows the summons from sfar;
On high the glittcring sword he waves,
And myriads feel the freemsn's fire,
While he around their fathers graves.

Memorials Of the Dead.

One of the most simple, ye, beautiful
and affecting customs of antiquity, which
has descended to modern times, is the
decorating with flowers, the graves of
those we respected and loved. Accust-
omed, as moderns are. TO term the ages
and usages that arc passed, barbarous and
unclyillzed, we cannot but think, that the
little regard paid in our days 10 the me-
mory of the departed, is a sad proof tina,
advancement in literature and the sciences
is uniavorable 10 the cultivation and
growth of some Of the finest, sweetest,
and hottest emotions, OF which the heart
is susceptible. We have no desire TO be
ranked among the ultra sensitive: but
certainly with us, this is no theme for
Iunbecoming levity. There is q deep
toned voice in the care and respect Which
every age and nation of antiquity has
shown TO the memory of the dead there
is divinity that speaks in the lessons
from the grave, which cannot be msun.
derstood, and which finds response in
every soul, not utterly callous and insen
sible to its noble destinies. In tho unfa
ding green Of the cypress and ivy, the an
clients found an emblem Of The immorta
vigor Of the mind; and in the annual re
newal Of the rose, and the fresh blossoms
Of spring, proof, that man, too, after tn
winter Of death, and the grave be past
Lie Damned 10 1Qurish il renovated beaut,

Legislative Council for its concurrence
but this body rejected il. The House urge,
anew their accusations sgsins, Judge

art, the present Chief Justice, TO 60 tt
Engla 10 support these accusations, bu
did not provide the means for defrayine
the expenses OF this mission which conse.
quently did not take place.
The ALLEN Bill'' was again renewed
By the Legislative Council but the House
of Assembly had for the frs, lime, the
good sense no, to concur in this bill which
in this session found fate so much desir-
ed by oil the friends Of true liberty. The
Council, the open enemy Of the liberty Of
the press, passed bill to gag this " Palls-
dunn oi the peoples rights" but the House
soon put its veto 10 this monsirous pro-
ject. A Bill was passed by both branches
OF the Legislature bur reserved by the
Governor for His Majesty's sanction,
granting a salary of $4,000 year TO the
Speaker of each branch. This bill receiv-
ed the Royal sanction and became law.
The House took great trouble 10 investi-
gate the means Of spreading education
among the mass Of the population. and
came to the determination that the +" ROYAL
institutions" which had been provided BY
a Provincial bill passed in 1901, did no,
answer the purpose for which il was in
tended.
On the first Of March the House of As
sembly was officially informed through n
from Sir George Provost, that
peace had been concluded between Great
Britain and the United States.
The administration Of the Governor in
Chief, was suddenly brough. TO an end.
He was ordered immediately to return 10
England there 10 meet the accusations
which had been made against him for the
expedition TO PIat,sburgh in which he was
accused Of having acted in a manner dis
graceful to the British army. AS soon as
The House was apprised that Sir George
Provost was recalled to answer to serious
charges made asainss him, they passed re-
'olves expressing their regret at the de- |
,arture Of Governor f" whose administra-
ion had met the wishes OF the people"
Ind also voted a sum Of $4,000 sterling for
he purpose OF buying a service of SLIDER
'tafe, TO be presented to His Excellency as
testimony OF the high services he had
endered to the Province and of the debt of
felt by the Canadians towards
His Excellency. On the 25th Of March.
he Legislature was prorogued and among
he twenty two bills which received the
Governors assent we find ono to open a
anal between Lachine and Montreal.
which certainly was measure very much
eeded.
Onthe third Of April the Governor re.
eived addresses from the inhabitants of
he Cities OF Quebec and Montreal, ex.
ressing deep regret at his sudden depar.
ure from among them and bearing a high
nd fattering testimony to his whole con-
net since he had held the reins of the
colonial government. On the 9th he left
Quebec accompanied by his staff and some
I the prineipa! officers, crossed tho ice
pposite the city and took the route oil
