NIGHT

By WILLIAM HAHINnroS, 1906 1854.
When survey the bright
Celestial sphere:
So rich with jewels hung, that Night
Doth like an Ethiop bride appear
My Soul her wings doth spread,
And heaven-ward flies,
The Almighty's mysteries 10 read
In the large volumes of the skies.
For the bright armament
Shoots forth no fame
So silent, but is eloquent
In speaking the Creators name.
No unregarded star
Contracts its light
Into so small character,
Remov'd far from our human sight:
But if We steadiast lool;
We shall discern
In it, as in some holy book,
How man may heavenly knowledge learn
Il tells The conqneror
That far stretclt power,
Which his proud dangers traffic Tor,
Is but the triumph Of an hour.
That from the farthes, North,
Some nation may
Yet undiscovered issue forth,
And DER his new got conquest sway.
Some nation We, shut in
With hills Office
May be let out 10 scourge his sin.
Till they shall equal him in vice
And they likewise shall
Their ruin have;
For as yourselves your empires fall
And every kingdom hath grave.
There those celestial fires,
Though seeming mute,
The iallacy of ourdesires
And all the pride OF life COMPUTE.
For they have watcht since first
The world had birth
Aud found sin in itself accurst,
And nothing permanent on earth.

NEWSPAPER SrpscRlproNs.-The new Post
master General has prepared instructions 10 de-
putty postmasters, under the new post-office law
which goes into operation on the Isl OF July next
The limitation Of the ranking privilege of post
masters has cut off The usual mode OF transmitting
subscriptions to papers. The following method
is therefore substituted, BY the Postmaster-Gene-
raj, as a provision for the Transmission OF money,
much preferable 10 that now in use. We extract
it from the synopsis which the N. y. Herald
gives OF the letter OF instruction:
Money for newspaper subscriptions not ex-
ceedng $40 in each case, may be paid TO a post
master for The purpose OF being paid 10 The pub
Usher Of newspaper al any other ofiice The
postmaster is, in such case, 10 give TO the person
paying The money, receipt therefor, and to al,
wise forthwith The postmaster. who is TO pay SAID
amount Of such deposit. Upon presentation OF
this receipt, The amount is 10 be paid over. The
postmaster receiving the amount is 10 debit HIM
self Herewith in his account, and The postmaster
paving that amount, is to credit hmselitherewilh
in his account Of contingent expenses"

Like the rainbow's CLEAN on the leapins stream

He aimeth his dar, at n maidens heart,
He loves the beautiful best;
And the brightest gem OF his diadem,

He is plucking now from an infants brow,
The bud that is bursting fair;
In the dismal tomb will he hide its bloom;
No flowers can blossom there.
In Youths sunny hour, with a witching power
Hope lendeh merry round.
