THE EVENING HYMN.
BY THOMAS MILLER

Another day, with mute adieu,
 Has gone down yOn uBtrodden sky, And stiti it looks as clear and blue
 As when it first was hung on high: The sinking sun, the daFkening cloud,
 That drew the lightning in it's rear, The thunder. trumping deep and loud,
 Have left no foolmark there. The village bells, with silver chime,
 Come softened OCT the distant shore; Though have heHrd them many a time
 They never wrang so sweet before- A silence rests upon the hill.
 A listening awe pervades the air; The very flowers are shut and still,
 And bowed as if in prayer. And in this hushed and breathless close, Der earth. and air, and sky, and sea, A still low voice in silence goes,
 Which speaks alone, great God, of Thee The whisPeFing leaves, the far-off brook, The linnets warble fainter grown, The hive-bound bee, the homeward rock. All these their Maker own. The deepening woods, the fading trees.
 The grasshopper's last feeble sound. The flowers just awakened by the breeze, All leaves the stiffness more profound. The twilight takes deeper shade,
 The dusky pathways darker grow, And silence regns in glen and glade
 While all is mute below. And other eyes as sweet as this
 Will close upon as calm day; Then, sinking down tue deep abyss,
 Will, like the last, be swept away, Until eternity is gained
 The boundless sea without shore, That without time forever reigned,
 And will when times no moro. Now nature sinks into soft repose.
 A living semblaRce of the grave; The dew steals noiseless on the roe, The boughs have almost ceased to wave; The silent sky. the sleeping earth,
 Tree, mountain, stream, the humble sod All tell from whom they had their birth, And crY, Behold a God,,

Farewell.

We do not know how much we love
 Until we come to leave; An aged tree, a common flower
 Are things OCT which we gTieve; There is a pleasure in the pain That brings us back the past again. We finger while we turn away,
 We cling while we ddpart; And mNmories unmarked till then,
 Come crowding round the heart. Let what will lure our onward way, Fareweli's bitter word to say.

SLAVERY RESTRICTION IN THE SLAVE
