ANTHEM.
" Earth with her ten thousand voice. praises God"
IoLEaiDoE
To all above, beneath, around.
A language God has given:
The spreading earth with verdure crowned,
The stars that gem the Heaven,
The how'r-crowned hill, the sparkling rll,
The leaf, the spreading tree,
The tangled brake, the placid lake,
And ever rolling sea.
Praise is natures holy voice,
Through all this world of ours
Its notes of JOY to Heaven ascend
Like incense from the flowers.
The birds amid the forest boughs
Pour forth choral song,
And answering hills with beauty crowned,
The joyful strain prolong.
The bceilng rock that bounds the strand,
The emerald robe that clothes the noun
tain,
The myriad grains Of sparkling sand,
The creeping vine, the gushing fountain
All, all proclaim his holy name,
Who spake them into birth,
Who archd the temple of the sky,
And spread the rolling earth.

THE Bitter BITTEN.-A young merchant OF New
York city, married man, but quite one OF the gay
men about town" has recently been swindled out
of some $500 by New Hampshire girl of modest
appearance, but not with character to match,
who under the tutelage of her elder sister, woman
of the town, inveigled him into promise of mar
riage, and subsequently instituted criminal suit
against him, under the new law against seduction.
To avoid exposure, he bled freely, and when the
time fixed for the examination of the accused ar
lived, the young lady of outraged virtue and her
witnesses were non est. The victim is man Of
fortune, and can spare the money. It's to be hoped
he will profit by the experience he has so Gberaly
paid for.

SHOCKS OF EARTHQUAKE AT THE NoRTH.-The
New York papers of the 9Th, give accounts of two
shocks of earthquake felt at Brooklyn Heights, at
As minutes past 10 O'Clock on Friday evening-the
atmosphere was serene and tranquil at the time.
The wire fell 50 having previously risen 10. The
South thermometer was equilbriated for four con-
secutiye hours The Commercial says the sound
was peculiar-a loud, heavy rumbling-lasting pro-
badly fifty seconds, and adds:
sit was very sensibly felt at Hackensack, N. j.,
and at other places in that neighborhOod. Its
course throughout appears to have been from South
west to Northeast.
''The first shock is described as having lasted
full minute; the second, ten seconds. The major
ity of the accounts fix the time of It's occurrence at
twenty minutes before ii O'Clock. We have heard
also from as far up the river as YOnkers and learn
that the shock felt there and IN some parts OF
Connecticut
"The shock was felt also on Staten Island, Sc
verey; and at White Plains. at the camp meeting,
and in the upper part of this city"
A Geographic dispatch from Philadelphia says
that this earthquake was also felt there.
