TuE POWER OF KINDNESS.


No man hnh measured it-for it Is boundless; no
man hath seen its denh-for il is eternal. In NIL
ages of the world IN every cline among every kind,
it hath shone out,a bright s. beautiful star, beaming
glory.
Look at the case of Saul and David Bitter and
blaslRg jealousy filled the heart of Saul-nnd he
"Sough 10 take the young mans life" With hell
ish hate he hunted him, even TO the dens and
Of the earth. But David conquered his enemy
even the proud spirit of naughty Saul, he BUNDLED
And how! Not with spear and sword-not with
harsh words and contumely for these did never
touch the heart with gentle influence. MOI but with
a wenpon-smple us the shepherds sling. yet sure
as tho arrow of death. 'Twus kindness, This killed
rankin hatred, and left Saul to live. And when it
had done its work, Saul said to David, "rhou art
more righteous than l. for thou hast rewarded thee
evil" Was not here vctory-more glorious more
godkc, than n Weingt on ever knew
See Joseph-in the hands ofhs wicked brethren.
For few pieces ofpaltry silver, they sold him into
Egypt Providence, in kindness, broke the bands
which held him in slavery, and made him a ruler
there. Famine spread over the land her dark man
tle-and the cruel brethren of Joseph hungered.-
They went to Egypt for corn. And how now acted
Joseph' More than once he filled their sacks, and
returned them their money-and then he made him
self known 81 am Joseph, your brother, whom
you sold into EgyPtH' Here was kindness-forgive-
ness And it crushed to death the spirit OF jealousy,
that had once nude him slave. He had conquered
Come farther down in the worlds hstory-and tell
me what word of all those spoken by the Meek and
lowly Jesus;" the ''Prnce Of Peace the Savior of
the word'-was best calculated 10 soften and sub
due the hard hearts of his prosecutors /? Are weIno
pointed to the Cross on Calvary' Are we not asked
TO listen to the sof sweet tones Of that voice p
"Father forgive them" o here kindness !
Look extended country, at the present
day. What has changed those miserable novels of
other days, where misery and Indebtedness had
dwet, into the neat and beautiful abodcs of plenty
and peace What has kndled anew the fame Of
love and affection in hearts long estranged and freez
ing with GOODNESS What has made happy the
homes Of thousands of wives, and tens of thousands
of children? What-in short-hns been the great
propellnnt of the late temperance reformation, which
carried joy and gladness all over our land , What,
but kindness
Reader have you an enemy, whom you would
make friend-a neighbor who needs repentance-a
fallen brother whom you would restore to sobriety and
virtues Forget not the power Of KINDNESS

INDIVIDUAL INFLUENCE.

We do not sufficiently appreciate individual nfu-
ence. We live and act for the present. for the mo-
ment, without realizing that each act is an enema
ton of the mind as indestructble the mind itself
Each act goes fonh and drops pebble in the
ocean of life, where circle succeeds another,
each enlargng its sphere, until beyond the power of
our vision.
We arc wont to look upon individual influence ms
small matter in the general balance; and how iIm
table in the total computation !
We are formed for society; by nature are created
social kind. We associate, and the sympathy
which connects mind with mind produces assima-
ton. Or rather the acts upon the other like frc
ton upon material matter-the Impressions which
we give or receive, mould the other to its own
likeness. In continuation, these again act upon 9TH
ers, and thus on through the whole vista of time.
To limit the boundaries of individual influence
were impossible. Every human being is link IN
the great chain Of life, the ends whereof upheld
by the Great Creator. lie alone and knows its
extent. is not in power TO it, separate
ourselves from the connection; and every individual

The influence from towards fellow beings,
is for their happiness misery; and the consequent
ces remain with u.s. No one is so humble that he
belongs to his species; and connection is such
one with another, and all united in the grand princi
pies of life and desire for happiness, thathe nlu-
Of our actions and characters remain with
ourselves. They go from like seed from the herb,
to flourish for others as warning or example; as an
excitement to good or to evil.
Neither do our influences die with They live

spoken, and our memory hath departed from earth.-
They live ever in time; and who knoweth that they

WINGS ye bear glorious name
Your sires and grnndsires bore the same
When the victory was won
At Concord and at Lexington
Spread your banner, wide and free,
Sign of law and liberty
Putnam fought, and Warren fell,
In the name ye love so well.
Again, our enemies combine
See their long aud lowering line -
Side by side, once more they stand,
Tory and British band.
No manly sword-no bnyonet brave
No patriot flag they proudly wave
sFree Trade" upon their front is seen,
But slapery is all they mean.
With hypocrlc art they bear
"DEMocRAcYr aoll in air
While "Polk and Texas" is their cry,
And gives their bastard flag the lie,
Oh ye TO whom this name is dear
viii ye profane ii thus and here?
Shall Democrats, of despots be
The tools and talk Of liberty
Shall democrats unite in hordes,
With British looms and Southern lords,
To bind the slave, and with the chain,
Unseen, their own right arm restrain
Shall democrats the drudges be
OF the slave master and shall We,
Who breathe the air of freedom, yield
Your birhright and be savery's shield
WHIGs-ye bear the star and stripe
Your country's hope-far freedoms type:
And shall that glorious banner be,
IIenceiorth the sign ofsavery?
Shall its folds DER Texas wave,
TO forge new letters for the slave
And to the scofing world proclaim
Our country's perlidy and shame'
WHIGs OF THE NORTH your fathers bled-
Was it for this their blood wus shed
WHIGs OF THE SOUTH did Marion fight,
And Sumpter bleed, for freedoms blight
AMERICANS, FAR EAST AND WEsT-
List to your county's high hehest--
Justice your cause-your leader CLAY
On to the field and win the day
Shall freedoms doom in shame be sealed /?
Shall Bunker's height and Cumden's field,
a harvest but of letters see?
Patrios-it must not be
BY the fame of Lexington
BY the name at Moutrie won
Let us strike Tor liberty,
Let our country still be free.
