! The writings OF Mr.. Burnap have been much read
and exercised very considerable influence, but 1t
! has not happened 10 ourselves to peruse one OF his
volumes before this. In it we find reasons Tor that
/ Influenza great deal OF that sense that all men
have with force and direc,ncss in expressing 1t; a
great respect high culture in literature or science
and for strength in character; conservatism at the
bottom of all his thoughts, but with freedom and
liberal notions rs TO the means of maintaining It,
As specmen of the latter we insert the following
| extract from his preface
rt,nsv seem to some violation OF good taste TO min
Gle in the same volume things sacred and secular thus
! apparently putting them upon the same eve:
The author has been disposed to take oIerent view
Truth and he considers Tie highest oects oi the
present life Il is impossible to know what Is duty until
we know what is truth The things about WHICH there
is the greatest ignorance. are the commohest nnans VI
daily life the relations OF capital 10 labor the reiaons OF
trade TO production property TO money oil government
70 society. Without knowledge oil these thines win
the best intentions man liable TO commit lne
mistakes TO the man who is anxious 10 DO right a
knowledge of these things is second in Importance only
10 those higher relations which the soul susans 10 Goo
Indeed, allegiance to our Maker Is pest olspayeu o
a conscientious discharge OF the most common oosa-
lions those of the citizen and man OF business as well as
those of the husband. son, fnther and friend.
All duties centre in religion as the PoiSt rom wncn
they radiatc and which they converge And no part
of human duty be foreign TO the calling OF reheous
teacher.
4, is for these that the author has ever been
ready to lend his aid enterprises OF literary ana sclen
tfc culture and it Is for the reasons that he now
submits to the public work of character IKE the pre-
made up Tor the most part OF puonc ee

! In the Orationn the Professions and that on the
rise and principles Of the Society Of Friends will
be found good statements from the authors point OF
view. Our own is so different that 10 speak In de-
| tail Of what be says would be to utter often ra-
dical protest generally thorough revision as TO
the subject matter. But we are glad to have his
way Of thinking well and clearly stated, that all
minds NAV have fair means of judging just how
much it is worth, and whether we may not hope
by deeper blowing, to produce anobler harvest. X

FAREWELL TO THE FLOWERS.
BIZ MRS. L. II. sIcoURNEY.
Go 10 your peaceful rest,
Friends OF q brighter boar,
Jewels on youthful beauty breast.
Lights OF the hall and bower!
Wellhave We done your part
Fair children Of the sky,
Well keep your memory in our heart
When low in dust ye lie.
Your gladness in our JOY,
Your smile beside our way,
Your gentle service round the bad
Of sickness and decay;
Your rainbow on the clouds
Your sympathy in pain, v
Wen keep the memory Of your deeds
Until we meet again.
Res,-from the blush of love-
Restroom the blight of care,
From the sweet nursing of your buds,
And from the nipping air.
Restroom the fever thirst
I OF Summers noonude heat,
From coiliag worm and rifiing hand.
That vexed your lone retreat
Ife'er We thrilrd with pride
When the admircr knelt,
Or on the lowy look d with scorn.
Which man for man hath felt
If through your bosom pure
Hath aught like evil flowed.
(Since folly may with angels dwell
Rest from that painful load
But not with grief or fear
Bow down the dropping head.
Seem the chamber of your birth
Your dying couch is spread.
| Go strong in faith, We flowers,
J Strong In your sueless trust,
With the returning birds 10 rise
Above imprisoning dust.
Hear we whisper low
From whitening leaf and bell I
"Our life hath been dream OF love
In garden or in dell
Yet wintry sleep we hail.
And till the trump shall swell
That wakes US on the vernal morn.
Sweet friends a sweet farewell.
