The Doomed One.

There is time, we know not when,
A point we know not where,
That marks the destiny of men,
To glory or despair
There is time by us unseen,
That crosses every path;
The hidden boundary between
Gods patience aud his wrath.
To pass that limit is to die,
To die as if by stealth;
1t does not quench the beamng eye,
Nor pale the glow of health.
The conscience may be still at ease,
The spirit light and gay;
That which is pleasing still may please,
And care be thrust away.
But on that forehead God has set
lndalibly mark,
Unseen by man, for man as yet
Is blind and in the dark.
And yet the doomed ones path below,
Like Eden may have bloomed,
He did not, does not, will not, know
Or feel that he is doomed.
He knows, he feels that all Is well,
And every fear is Gained;
lie lives, he dies, and wakes in hell,
Not only "doomed" but Slammed"
Owhere is this mysterious bourne,
BY which our path is crossed;
i ~
That he who goes is lost2
How long may we go on in sin?
How long will God forbear?
Where does hope END, and where begin
The confines Of despair
An answer from the skies is sent
Ye that from God depart
While it is called to- day, repent
And harden not your heart

pliciy of the Evangelists! The never speak
injurlousy of the enemies of Jesus Christ, of
his executioners, nor his judges They report
the facts without adding single reflection
They remark neither their Masters mildness
when he was smitten, nor his consistency in his
suffering, which they thus describe, -"And they
cruciied Jesus. "-Racine.

depart from him, saith the Lord" than are found in

BILIOUS DISORDERS.
This class Of diseases is the Great

is willing TO work hard and endure every

little while he is seized with some form
of bilious disease. His strength now 4
weakness. Acloud comes over his pros
poets aud he exclaims, "would that there
were some medicine to prevent this
dreadful evil, and to cure it when Il does
selze upon its victim" From the mo-
ment of the landing of the Pilgrims at
plymouth to the present hour. bilious
diseases have sent sorrow and desola-
ton throughout the land. Letthe raves
OF the loved and the lost tell the story!
A momentons question here comes up.
Does the Supreme Ruler intend thatthe

to bear the heat and burden Of the day.

calamity. 1t is not ~irreverent to saw

there is no class of diseases that can be
