From many distant shore,
Freedom in days Of yore
Sought here home
And still from every strand.
Freemen Of every land

They hither come.
And bark the Ffeeman's song.
T'piftod loud and strong.
Swcls DER the wave.
And man IN all the might
And majesty of Right
Stands forth in Freedoms light,
Erect and brave.
First in the noble race
France takes her lofty place
sefrulcd and free
Walked by her thrilling strains,
Ger Europes hills and plains.
Nations cast OF their chains
And tyrant7 fee.
Welcome thrice glorious morn
On which 70 Freedom born,
Our sires stood Orth,
Pledged 70 be free die,
And reared 20 Liberty
temple broad and high,
For all the earth.
Thrice welcome this glad hour.
That sees dcspotc power
Tremblc and fall
That hears mid crumbling thrones
And Slsverys dying groans,

In Scotland the old ecclesiasiic parties
have greatly changed their position. Bur
ghers, Antiburghers, Relief-men, are now
absorbed in the Church Of Scotland or in
the Free Church. The Independents or Con-
gregationaliSts are divided into Morrisonians
or Congregationalists-ihe former having
embraced a more liberia theory Of the gospel
than their old s~ectarian brethren. Indeed, in
some particulars they make the nearest APP
proach to our views of any party in Scotland.
The Scotch and English Baptist commune
ties, with our brethren, make the remainder.
The Morrisonitcs and Infidels constitute,
however, a fearful aggregate compared with
any Of these denominations indeed, with
all of them, so far as vital piety is to be re-
garded as the fruits of discipleship.
The Morrisonians are of recent origin
From a conversation which ] had the plea
sure of enjoying with one of their most res
pectable ministers, | learn that their views
Of Bible truth in several points are much in
advance of most of their contemporaries
They have already in the field some seventy
preachers, and have some thirty on the way
They suffer much, however, under a sort o
religious h~ydrophobia, being exceedingl.
fearful of immersion.
