ANIMATION OF AMELIA,s "LAST SAL
INTERVIEW" WITH SOME OF TIL
PRINCIPAL IDEAS REVERSED.
Here in this bower, whose enchsntment first bound
me,
hail thee again by the moons pale ray,
bring thee no tears no sorrows to wound ,hee,
feel in my heart what words can't betray.
# is bliss 10 be near thee-yet not as brother.
All my fond thoughts to the world tho unknown
From thee could not, wish not, TO smother,
Thou canst give those smiles to another,
Love made my own
| know not but Fate, with some dread commission,
May seek to deprive me of each dream Of bliss,
She wields not power but by His permission,
Who guards faithful lovers in moments like this ::
And il not on EARTH IN claim thee in Heaven,
Where friends that we have shall greet US in love
When the Of life, like storms, all driven
The sunlight of peace to US shall be given,
In realms above
10 its deathless virtues, thy soul ever growing,
Some celestial guardian well may employ,
Asa gem whose lustre, all fadeless and glowing,
May deck pure world of beauty and joy.
But whilst lhon art here as some angel seeming,
Breathe forth thy spirit in songs sweet as theirs,
As In thine loves rad iance is beaming
Der the dark future bright visions cleaning,
Earth has cares
When Nature, all fresh in her dew-drops and roses
Shall battle thy fair cheeks in morn's balmy air,
Go when the young flower its crimson discloses
And wreath it for me if were there.
As in silence, like life, day is declining,
Deserted and lonely all things appear;
When objects most sacred about thee are twining,
Come to this bower when the first star is shining,
And leave tear.
In days to come, strange crowds gaze upon thee,
And when thy sweet tones their thoughts shall en-
trance,
Should be near, at first when won thee,
Give mo one look-one self-thrillng glance.
o do not forget the words we have spoken,
When others would tempt Thy mind from the pas,
| have pledged thee in truth, with many token,
heart where vows shall be unchanged-un
broken,

SECOND ADVENT EXCITEME EN-

SECOND ADVENT EXCITEM Emf.
We have been mortified aud BUNDLED in
view of the course pursued by the belev-
ers in the l0lh of the 18th month as the end
of time. We do not credit all statements
made, but too many evidences rush upon
us of the absurdily Of their proceedings.
Crops have been left standing in the fields
many have given up labor entirely-hus-
bands have abandoned their wives, and
wives their husbands, each contending that
all natural affection was, or should be, done
away-laymen have been baptizing all they
could persuade to submit to the ordinance
at their handsome have been into caves
determined TO stay until Christ came
others went on to the mountains on the
ed, so as to meet Christ there, and re-
manned all night. Many have become ra-
wing crazy, and some have had to be con-
fined to prevent their injuring their own
persons. We had no idea that many with
whom we have formerly been acquainted
could be led on to such results. We have
hoped that after this, the idea of setting
the time Tor Christ's appearing would be
forever abandoned But in this we are
disappointed The last Advent Herald
though IT does not set another day yet, has
already found out that Christ could not
have come the 22d-there must be time
for the lamps Of the foolish virgins to I" 90
out"
Why is this Just found out? Has the
parable Of tie ten virgins been changed /?
Does it not read just as it has for 1900
years Why was it not known that there
would be carrying time," before 1913
had passed, just as well as afterward p
The Bible was the same. Why all this
Ishuffilng ! Is it to keep up system of
time-setting which is doomed to fall, when
one thing fails to catch at another We
certainly tremble for such men, Either
their hearts or heads are wrong we hope
the latter
The mischief done by these attempts at
'setting the time" cannot be repaired in
an age. Thousands we doubt not will be
led to infdelity by it. Thousands more
will lose their christian inhuence-wil be
lost TO the church and The world, and thou
Suhuo lllolC sun VIII rum themselves us 10
property and means of support.
YE KNOW NOT WHEN THE TINE Is,"
was said by Him who cannot lie, and all
attempts at doing away this simple truth
will be met by utter confusion. We i'm
pugn no mans motives. Vast numbers,
we doubt not, have been honest in their
belief in setting the time. Such we now
expect will give it up, and return to the
" old paths" and walk therein. We ask
no one to disbelieve in the resurrection or
the second coming of Christ we discour-
age no one from getting ready. Nay, we
have no controversy with those who think
Christ near provided it does not lead them
to denounce every body who does not see
this point just as they do. 1t is this down
with the church, down with the ministry
this calling the church Babylon the moth
err of harlots,' this time setting and reset
ting, this splicing and lengthening out sys-
TEN, that we repudiate. We think its
