meek and unassuming man, whose
happiness seemed to consist in acts Of
benevolence to the human race
There were deep traces o. sorrow in
his countenance, though none knew
why he grieved, for he lived in prac-
tice Of every virtue, and was loved
by all the wise and good.
BY and by it was rumored that the
stranger worked miracles, that the
blind saw, the dumb spoke, and the
dead leaped to life at his touch; that
when he commanded, the ocean
moderated its chatting tide, and the
very thunders a%rticulated, SHE is the
Son of God"
Envy assailed him with the charge
of socery, and the voice of impious
judges condemned him unto death.

ed the hill of Calvary. A heavy
cross bent him to the earth; but Faith

1t was atthis period that two forms
Of ETHEREAL mould lowered above the

some embassy of love.
The n was OF majestic stature,
and in the welcomed limbs which
her snowy drapery scarcely conceal

eve, were exhibited the highest de-
gree of strength and confidence
Her right arm was extended in an
impressive gesture upward, where
night appeared to have placed her
darkest pavilion, while on her left
reclined her delicate companion, in
form and countenance the contrast
of the other, for she was dropping
like the flower when unmoistened by
refreshing dews, and her bright but
troubled eye scanned the air with ar,

Suddenly a light like the sun flash

Why should the good go there?
IT'S a cold and dark abode,
For the holy men of praise and prayer,
Who have dweit so long IN the pleasant air,
And sunshine OF their God.
Why 60 the learned and wise
To a house so close and dampl
They can gaze not there at the mystic skies,
Nor watch the stars as they fall and rise.
Nor read by the midnight lamp.
Why 60 the rich and gay
To a hut so mean and small?
No chance is there for a proud display,
There is scarcely room in the walls OF clay.
For the busy worms 10 crawl!
But for him who is struggling on,
In wild ambitions race,
Who feels that the goal cannot be won
That his spirits droop and his strength is gone
IT'S a quiet resting pluce.
And for him who has weary grown
or a world that loved him not,
Whose Joys have vanished and hopes have flown
Whose only wish is to be alone,
Indeed, It's an OWED spot.

Curious HIsroRIcAL FAcr.-During
the troubles of the reign of Charles ],
a country girl came to London, in
search of a place as servant maid, but
no, succeeding. she hired herself to
carry out beer from a brew house, and
was one of those called tub women.
The brewer observed a good looking
girl in this low occupation, took her
into bis family as a servant, and alter
a short time married her, but he died
while she was yet a young woman,
and left her the bulk OF his fortune.
The business of the brewery was
dropped, and Mr.. Hyde was recon-
mended to the young woman, as a
skilful lawyer to arrange her hus'
bands affairs. Hyde. afterwards the
Earl Of Clarendon, finding the wild
ow's fortune very considerable, mar
ried her. or this marriage there was
no other issue than a daughter, who
was afterwards the wife Of James liz.
and mother of Mary and Anne.
Queens Of England.

Ofthe hopes that nee were mine,
Or the rich incense I sought to pour
Al the feet of boauty's shrine.
I will weep--I will weep no more.
For the soul ofjoy is dead;
Mirth is but pain, where the heart is sore,
Or the burning tear is shed.
