In wonder, on the glorious child.
No sudden earthquake shook the ground,
Pealed on the Heaven no thunder roll:
But like silver trumpet's sound,
The Angels accents pierced the soul.

For thou art in the lions den;

Submissive TO the higs, command.
He led the Mother uni the Child
To Egypt's far and fiery strand.
But as they sent their farewell prayer
Where Judah's long loved hills arise,
They saw the midnight torches glare.
Heard atrons' yell. and murdcrers' cries
For there in slaughter ragged the sword.
There infant corpse on corpse was piled:
There. by the self.same arrow gored,
Died the pale mother and the child.

AT midnight came the Angel tone

COOP BUTTER.-The great point
in making good butter. and tina. which
will keep. is the freeing it from all
hu,'ermiIk; and if every thing else is
well done, if This point is overlooked,
good butter is impossible for any length
Of time. The mixture Of milk in any
degree with the butter is sure to pro.
ducs frowsiness or AL unpleasant taste
to the butter. There are many who
think washing butter with water in.
compatible with retaining the rich fla.
vor, bu, if the water is Geld and pure
it is scarcely possible any thing
should be washed away, the butter
milk wi.iri. ,esisUys the favor Of all
butter excepted. Besides. the bes,
butter in the world. and tina, in all
markets commands the best price, viz:
Dutch butter, is Invariably made in
this way; and where the example has
been followed by others, i. has rarely
failed of success. Ifany, however,
doubt the propriety of washing butter.
they may use any method they may
choose. provided the milk is separa.
led perfectly. Il should be free from
the substance that causes it to assume
the pu,rid frowsy taste OF bad butter.
it may be kept with almos. as much
ease as ,allow; soldi,y in packing.
clean. sweet vessels, and low tenn.
perature. will ensure its keeping for
any seasonable length Of time. Let
no one expec, good butter. however, so
long as coarse impure salt is used, or
a particle of the buttermilk is allowed
to remain in it.
