THE ERRING.

BY JULIA A. FLETCHER.
Think gently ofthe erring!
Ye know not Of the power
With which the dark temptation came
In some unguarded hour.
Ye may not know how earnestly
They struggled, or how well.
Until the hour Of weakness came
And sadly thus they fell.
Think gently oflh errins!
Oh! do not thou forget,
However darkIy stained by sin,
He is thy brother yet.
Heir ofthe self same heritage!
Child Of the selcsame God!
lie hath but stumbled in the path,
Thou hast in weakness trod.
Speak gently 10 the erring!
For it is not enough
That innocence and peace are gone,
Without the censure rough !?
1t sure must be a weary lot
That sin crushed heart 10 bear,
And they who share a happier fate,
Their chidings well may spare.
Speak kindly to the erring!
Thou yet mayst lead them back.
With holy words, and tones oflove.
From misery's thorny track.
Forget not thou hast often sinned,
And sinful yet must be.
Deal gently with the erring one
As God hath dealt with thee !

AWAY WITH THE BOWL.

By P. p. r.
Remove the poisonous cup away,
Twill not taste again;
A double death lies in its depth.
And many hath it slain.
Away-I fear its magic blow,
Iwould not have it near
Away-it telleth tales Of wo.
OF no would not hear.
lis Joys are transient us the fash
That darts across the sky;
And prostrates as the mighty crash
Of whirlwinds rushing by
These joys repeated Ger and Ger,
Will soon debase the mind;
When conscious rec,i,ude is gone,
A wreck is left behind.
Dasl-dash it ont, and let the earth
Drink up its ruby hue
Cursed be the time that gave it birth,
That brought 1t into view.
Hencefor,h drink no more of thee
Thou deadliest foe of life
Henceforth must and will be free,
Thou votary of strife.
Thou worst Of human loes-away-
Go-ne'er return again
Despair thou bringest with thy stay,
And madness to the brain.
Go-go-tlou hast no charm for me.
Thou canst not soothe my wo;
Thou only bringess misery
Within thy ruby glow.
Oh, hence! it hath an adder's bite
Take-take it far away;
1t spreads around hellish blight;
And brings dreary day
Then ever hence, thou maddenins bowl,
And trouble me no more
Away destroyer Of the soul,
Thy deadly reign is DER.
