HOPE ON.

BY MISS E. JENNEss.
Has thy plume been scIed, and clouded thine eye
While the glancng arrows around thee f1y2
And thy footsteps faint in the strife and fray,
Though he fight is yet in the noon Of day2
Warrior, awake and arouse once more;
Hope on, hope on, until life is DER.
Is thy heart bowed down with q bitter woe,
Thine anchors lost in tn depths below.
No friend by thy side, and no voice Of cheer
10 give the strength IN the hour Of fear?
Mariner, faint not, star is on high;
Hope on, hope on, for thy God is nigh
Are thy nerves unshea,hed. o Poet, and worn,
As on thou art urged 10 a far distance bourne ?
Thou has, worlds Of glory unseen within,
Though the shadow around are marked with sin
AMI the kingdom of love beyond thee lies,
Hope on, for thy songs are sung for the skies

Mr.. EpIToR--Thc illuminated Periodical
Bible" from the press of the barpcr, New York,
has been submitted us for our opinion Of It's char
acer, and claims to popular favor" and as minis.
eres of the Gospel do no, feel a, liberty to with
hold the expression of the opinion, however 1t
may conflict with the commentator passed upon
by the press or seem to initiate with tho interest
Of the proprietors
In the first place, we are decidedly opposed 10
the growing disposition to accompany the Sacred
Scriptures with pictorial illustrations While IN
some few cases these may afford clear views of
ancient rites, or give more perfect knowledge of
the arts of the age, they can seldom if ever aid ut
all in giving clearer perceptions of truth, or infor
cling its sacred claims Their tendencies 10 evil
are too numerous to mention in this place, obvious
ly holding natural and immediate affinity to the
sickenng usages Of superstition, and image woy-
ship.
In the second place, we arc strongly opposed
TO the present work on account of,he character
of many of its pictures and as Christian Minis
tiers we feel bound 10 record our most decided
objections to it, whatever may be its claims to
excellent mechanical execution Many of those
pictures are reroltingiy obscene and coming MS
they do in immediate Connection with the Word
of God we feel bound 10 enter our solemn protest a
gains, its circulation.
Still more Of those pictures, if not ALL that have
as yet appeared, afford not the slightest aid toa
more correct understanding of the Scriptures, and
we have not been able 10 discover either their
great excellence as specimens of art, or the pro-
prety of affixing them to passages Of inspired
truth where they are found
In our view, the plea Of increasing the circula-
ton oftho scriptures, can afford no excuse for
such violation ofdelicacy and good taste and oh.
iec,ing, us we always have done, to the exhibition
of paintings similar to the cuts in question, we are
confident that those equal, if not more gross rep
reservations lying before our children, and asso
cated so intimately with the word Of God, mus
be inconsistent ilh their safety and hence who'll!

SOUND ADVICE.

Settle all your accounts, collect what is due
you, and pay what you owe. "Short settle
ments make long friends" Examine your farm
statistics and see what have been the results Of
your experiments with the different kinds Of man.
ures, seeds mode of tilIa ge, &c, &c, and note
them well for future use. No farmer ought to be
without such book, in which all experiments
should carefully be recorded at the time, and the
results carried into separate book for his own
use hereafter; and If new and valuable discover
les are obtained communicate them 10 some agri-
cultural periodical for the benef, of the world
Recolect, you have the experience of thousands 10
guide their operations, and, by contributing TO the
general stock whatever may be useful, you are
but returning to mankind, part of the benefits
you have derived from them. Give all the cir
cumstances material to the subjects in the brefest
painest and simples, language possible Above
all things, send in your subscription TO one or more
valuable agricultural papers, and get as many OF
your neighbors to subscribe as possible and con-
si1er in so doing, yon are bcnefiting yourselfby
it ten times as much as you are the publishers-
Summer is peculiarly the time FOR making obser-
va,ons and experiments, and winter the time for
communicating them. Remember the poor, not
only in this month, but every month through the
year, especially during the inclemency Of winter.
| You need not give so much TO them outright, but
endeavor to pun them in a way Of making them
selves comfortable by afDrding them employment
/ by which you maybe benefited while dong them

sistence, teaching them to help themselves, and a.

A PICTURE OF SLAVERY. Norfolk
Herald of Wednesday has letter from a
friend in Charlotte, Va, of the 9th inst.
which the editors introduce to their readers
as "very interestingly" it relates to the con-
dition of the planters in consequence of three
successive "bad years." The letter says:
"The sales Of negroes continue at every
Court day, and it is TO be feared will continue
for some time. AS many as seventy were sold
at the last Charlotte court and learn that a
large number will b sold at Buckingham Court
on Monday next. The public roads give evil
dence of numerous sales, and large gangs are
vending their way to the South. met gang
OF seventy slaves on Thursday last, another OF
thirty the day after. and on Sunday a third of
twenty or thirty. A hundred in a single gang
passed Charlotte court house two or three weeks
since, bound to the South. ] speak Of what has

bv us, or the great powers OF Europe, have
every reason to believe that the stream of emf
grafton would flow in that direction as full as
Gen. Waddv Thompson, in his first letter to the
to the National lnelligcnccr, predicted would
be the case. Another series of three success
sive bad years would deprive Virginia of one.
third, perhaps one half of her slaves. 1t would
be well worth knowing how many slaves have
left the state during the last two years. The
number would almost exceed belief.
