THE SABBATH. u But blessings aud ten thou
sand blessings be upon that day, aud let my
riads OF thanks stream no 10 the throne OF God
for this divine and regeneraling gift TO man.
As have sat in some fowery dale, with the
sweetness Of May around me on q week day,
| have thought of The millions Of immortal
creatures toilng for their daily life in factories
aed shops, amid the whiri Of machinery and
the greedy craving Of mercantile gain, and
suddenly that golden interval of time has lain
before me, in all it's brightness; time, and
perpetual recurring time, in which the earthly
tyranny is loosed. and Peace, Faith, and
Freedom, the snges Of God, come down and
walk once more among men. Ten thousand
| blessings on this day-Vhe friend Of man and
beastl The bigol would rob il Of its healthful
| freedom on the one hand, and coop man up in
bis workday dungeons, and cause him 10 walk
| with downcast eyes and demure steps; and the
| liberline would deseOrate all its sober decorUm
on the other. God, and the sound heart and
sterling sense Of honest men, preserve it from
both these evils.
Letus s,ill avoid puritan rigidhy and for
eign dissipation. Let our children, and osr
servants, and those who toll for US in vaults,
and shops, and factories, between the inter-
walls Of solemn worship, have freedom to
4 walk in the face of heaven and the beauty Of
earth, for in the great temple Of nature stand
together health and pie,y. For myself, speak
| from experience; il has always been my de-
light to 20 out on Sunday and, like Isaac
! mediate in The fields; and especially in the
! sweetlranquilily, and amid the gathering sha-
dows Of evening; and never in temple or in
closet did more hallowed influence fall upon
any heart With the twilight and the
hush Of earth, tenderness has stolen upon
qme--a iloye for. every creature on which God
has stamped The wonder Of his handwork--
but especially for every child Of humanity;
and then have been made to feel that there is
no orAion like that which has heaven itself its
.-froof, and no teaching like the teaching Of lbe
! Spirit which created. and still oyershadcwa
