THE SABBATH BELL.


The Sabbath bell how s~ Getty breathes
Ger bin an, dale that baliowed sound.
When spring her FIRST bright ehsplet wreathes
The cotter's humble porch around -
And gli-,tning meads of vernal green
TIE blossnrnsd bough the spiral corn,-
Smile Ger the brook that flows between,
As shadowing forth taifer morn.
The Sabbath bell !--'t,s stiffness all,
Save where The lambs unconscious bleat,
Or the lone wood doves piaintive call.
Are mingiiug with its cadence sweet;
Save where the lark 81 soaring wing
At heavens gate pours he's matit song;
Oh! thus shall fpsthered warblers sing,
Nor man the grateful STRAIN prolong.
The Sabbath bell !-how soothing flow
Thos- greetings to the peasants breast!
Who know not labor ns'rr know
The blessed calm that sweetens rest
The day spring OF bis pilgrimage,
Who, freed awhile from earthly care,
Turns meekIy to a heavrn taught page,
And reads his hope recorded there.
The Sabbath bell!--yes, not 10 vain,
That bidding on tie gale IS borne;
Glad respite trom the echping vain,
The sounding axe. the clamurous horn:
Far other thoughts those notes inspire,
Where youth lorgets hts frolic pace,
And maid and matro1. sou and sire,
Their church way path together trace.
The Sabbath bell ERE yet the peal
In iessening murmurs melt away.
lis sweet with reverentiai step to steal
Where rests around each kindred clay!

was OF course terribly alarmed, the dog
sti barking at him BIS he lay helpless al
his feet. But The instan, the dog prrceiv
90 that the child was hurt, he returned
coward his masters house aud by his vol e
and actions convinced the family tn Il
SOM thing was wrong Finally, after
having tried ~ van to quiet the cog, they
followed HIM al t'ey found the child cry
ing f,r help, but at such distance from
any mouse that he could never have made
himself heard. Had it not been for the
kindness OF the dog, his enemy the boy
would have tainted there, or would have
Attempted TO crawl away, in which case

The remarkable feature IN tins case IS,
thai the disposition Of the dog was so sud-

making similar efforts TO save the lives al
their masters or children to whom they
