EARLY PlETY.
| saw a lovely boy
Kneel down beside chair,
Then place his head upon his hands,
And sweelly lisp a prayer.
A loveler sight was ne'ar beheId;
No mockery was his part;
That infant form thus bent in prayer,
Might shame an older heart.
And there he kneeled, nor moved he then,
Nor turned his little head,
Till all his prayer was finished.
The last--last word was said,
| gazed enlranced upon the child,
So artiess, young. and pure,
Aud fondly wished his little form,
Might long with US endure.
But yet methought that infant mind,
Mild as the breath of even, A
Enriched with many mental gems,
Seemed ripening fast for heaven.
Oh, may that power who governs all, 81 "
Forever watch and guide him,
And spare him here, for many year,
And evil ne'er betide him.

THE MARRIAGE OF ISAAC.
A TRUE STORY.
BY MOSES. f
{ Written more than 5000 gears aqo.y

Abraham was old, and we'll stricken in
age: and the Lord had blessed him in all
things. And Abraham said unto his eldest
servant of his house, that ruled over all
that he had, will make thee swear by the
Lord, the God of Heaven, and the God
Of the earth, that thou shall not take a
wife unto my son of the daughters of the
Canaanites, among whom dwell, but thou
shalt 60 unto my country, and to my
kindred, and take wife unto nv son
Isaac. And the servant said unto him,
Peradventure the woman will not be will
ing to follow me unto this land: must
needs bring thy son again unto the land
from whence thou camest Abraham said
unto him, Beware that thou bring not my
son thlther again. The Lord God of Hea-
uen. which took me from my fathers
house, and from the land Of my kindred,
and which spake unto me, and that swear
unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will
give this land; he shall send his angel
before thee, and thou shall take wife
unto my son from thence. And if the
woman will not be willing TO follow thee,
then thou shalt be clear from this my oath
only bring not my son thlther again. and
the servant swear to him concerning that
matter.
And the servant took ten camels of the
camels of his master, and departed for
all the goods of his master were in his
handi and he arose and went to Mesopo-
lamia, unto the city of Major. And he
made his camels to kneel down without
the city by well Of water at the time
of the evening, even the time that women
90 out 10 draw water. And he said, O
Lord God of my master Abraham, pray
thee send me good speed this day, and
show kindness unto my master abraham.
Behold, | stand here by the well of wa
ter; and the daughters of the men of the
city come out 10 draw water: aud let it
come to pass, that the damsel to whom
shall say, Let down thy pitcher pray thee
that may drink; and she shall say, Drink,
and | will give thy camels drink also !;
let the same be she that thou hast ap-
pointed for thy servant Isaac; and thereby
shall know that thou hast shown kind
ness unto my master,
And it came TO pass before he had done
speaking, that, behold, Rebekah came out,
who was born TO Belhuel, son of Micah,
the wife Of Major, .Abraham's brother.

the damSeI was very fair to look upon, and
she went down 10 the well and filed he,

a little water of thy pitcher. And sh,
said, Drink my lord : and she FASTENED

STANZAS.
And thou art in the dreary grave;
Thy spirits passed away,
Thy dark locks lost their winning wave,
Thine eye lis matchless ray,
Thy heart that lhrobbed with pure impulse
10 music's magic pour
Hope meier shall thrill, nor woe convulse,
Its youthful heavings more.
The rose that once so sweely blushed
Upon thy cheek is dead
Thy VOICES mellow tone is hushed-
Its thrilling power hath fed
But dwelling on each hallowed word
That from thy fair lips fell,
They seem like distant warblings heard
In visionary spell.
Before me lie, traced by thy hand,
The lines though gavest when
Departing for the stranger land,
10 ne'er return again.
They breathe as then they fondly breahed
The same soul-springng thought:
But ah the mind that warmly wrea,hed
The priceless pearls is naughl.
The star that we on parting vowed
TO watch at evenings hour
Sull sparkles thro' its ether shroud
With beam Of dimless power;
There fancy tells thy spirit dwells,
Mid scenes of endless light,
Where every sense 10 JOY impes,
And hopes receive no blight.
But Q !! it looks 10 me dream,
strive in vain to fly
My trusting heart did never deem
1t was thy lot to die
For gazing on thy features play
In beauty's brightes, bloom,
They seemed to glow with heavenly ray
Too joyous for the tomb. C. M.

We are sorry that our limited space pre-
cludes the possibility of publishing al length
Bro. Whites oration; we give, however,
that portion in which he so ably treats on
the objections used by some against the or
der as secret order, and recommend all
such 10 a careful perusal of his powerful
and conclusive remarks:
"There are many conscientious Chris.
tians who object TO voluntary associations,
of all kinds, and particularly to the Sons of
Temperance, because the church is believed
by them, TO De abundantly sufficient for all
purposes Of reformation. Is it not strange
that such men cannot perceive that the de-
NAL of the right and propriety of such afili-
ations would apply with equal force to any
man becoming member of the church p
Can they not see that this parity Of rea-
soning leads TO direct opposition TO the
laws and government under which they
live have often wondered Why such OBJ
jectors did not come out boldly for a theo-
cracy. The gist Of their reasoning certain
ly has that extent. But the objections to
the Sons Of Temperance are perhaps more
plausible. will therefore notice some Of
those most commonly urged. And am the
more inclined TO do SO, since they come
from one or two grave Presbyteries in the
form of maniiestos or public declarations.
The first will notice, because il is the
principal one, is the alleged SECRECY of the
Order. 1t has been said by many that our
institution is not secret Order. This, in
the qualified sense intended, is true. 1t is
not secret society in the Objectionable
sense in which the term is used.
Secrecy is defined to be, and properly is,
state of separation. The secrecy IN this
sense, the Order pleads guilty, and hopes
ever TO remain separate from the drinking
usages Of society. But these formidable
bulls attribute to it a savoring of criminali
ty. As might have been expected from
such aquarter, they commence by torturine
the sacred volume into support of thei
pious anathemas. Out Of the vast store
