THE MUSES. BOWER.
MADELINE.

FROM KEATS EVE OF ST, AGNES
A easement high and triple arched there was,
All garlanded with carved imageres
OF fruits and flowers and punches of knot-grass,
And diamonded with panes of quaint device,
Innumerable of stains and splendid dyes,
As are the tiger-moth's deep-damosked wings;
And in the midst, 'mong thousand heraldries,
And twilight saints and dim emblazonings,
A shielded escutcheon blushed with blood of queen
and kings,
Full on this easement sbone the wintry moon
And threw warm gules on Madelines fair breast,
AS down she knelt for heavens grace and boon;
Rose-bloom fell on her hands, togetherpr prest,
And on her silver cross soft amethyst,
And on her hair glory like saint:
She seemed a splendid angel, newly drost
Save wings, for heaven.

The End.

The cnd--ihe end-always have the end in
view, if you take cigar, drink glass of spirits,
violate the creed of virtue, speak an untruth, or
lift copper from your masters drawer, think of
the consequences-the end of your course
Will il be pleasant 10 reflect upon at night? Will
il add 10 your rcspoctabilily and reputation? If
the young men would always have the end in
view, the number of transgressors would be very
small

Here Jael may represent the rumseller; the

POWER OF RELIGION.

Christianity is a divine, not human insti,
tuition Had il have been, il would long since
have come TO nought. Like every thing else
of mans deyising, il would have been subiec
TO change and improvement. Mutability i.
written on all earthly things groaning under ths
curse Of Adams once offended God. The fly,
ing cloud--lhe falling rain-lhe whitening
flower the melting snow-the approach o
summer, and the departure Of winter--all seen
to be embematica Of the change through
which we must pass. Is there any thing
which can prepare man for this final and ma
terinl change? Religion, that which, like lis
author. possesses neither "variableness MOI
shadow Of turning can perform this stupen-
dous work.
The strongest walls must be subverted the
nobest'piece of architecture, with its apparent
ly firm foundation, with its supporting columns
with its upreared ofvieing with the clouds
above it, must crumble to earth.
In this world, the warmest antcipauons may
be blasted; the dearest hopes, and sweetest,
affection may be embittered and made to with
er by acts Of negligence and indifference; the
frozen heap Of the miser may be made to dis
solve by single touch from the hand Of pro.
digality; the wreath Of fame may be torn from
the the brow Of the military chieftian, and the
throne Of regal authority may be demolished
by some opposing power; but the throne of
religion will remain unmoved. Her spiritual
building "not made with hands, shall never
1otter or fall, although the "gates Of He'll may
try to prevail against it.o
Religion alone can add permanent beauty
to the things Of earth 1t sheds a halo OF bright
ness around the humble cot, as we'll as the de-
coratei palace. Its trophies are heralded by
men on earth. its praises are hymned by saints
and angels in heaven. Its triumphs are writ
ten down by the recording angel Religion il
self will never change.
When hope and despair. love and hatred,
sincerity and hypocrisy, generosity and selfish
ness shall all be sepulchred together; then shall
religion smile over the havoc which sin has
made; raise its possessor far above the scenes
Of earth, and bear it away into that region Of
blissful immortality, far beyond the blue vault
Of Heaven.

ton that they will be found a safe and sovereign
'emedy for Dyspepsia. They have been trum-

most other Bters, Of not proving injurious by con-
tinued use. They contain not single deleterious
