BEAUTIFUL SENTIMENT.

Our life is dying with the dying years.
Such is the inevitable course of nature. But
wisdom, truth and love, and above all, the
heavenly grace from whence they spring,
can, under another law, save life-save the
whole of life-its buds, IFS blossoms, its
fruits, and treasure them up forever Our
true life is not in the ordinary measures of
time-in setting suns, and beating hearts
but in our thoughts, our sentiments, our
principles, our deeds. Juslas we consecrate
ourselves to wisdom, truth and love, just as
God and Christ reign in us, just so far we
live deathess life, and nothing is lost to
us. Our progressive life now becomes an
accumulation of life. Every year, instead
of taking away, adds to our store. The good
old man who has always walked with God,
carries all his years with him into immortal
ity.-N. Y EudngciSt

Dissolve the Union Never !
Br THE REV. EDWARD C. JONES, A. N.


Dissolve the Union! never:
q 'Twere cen madman's part,
The golden chain to seuer,
Which girdles Freed heart
What Faction rear her Altar,
And discord wave her brand,
And hearts from duty falter,
At Party's base demand2
Look up--'tis Freedoms temple
W. You long to overthrow; ts.
And if your arms uplitted,
A demon prompts the blo,c.
Think every radiant column,
Has cost Patriots blood,
And would you have them shattered,
Where long in pride they stood
That fag-that honorcd pennon,
Mirrored in every sea;
What, would you quench one beaming star,
Nor sink in infamy?
Rend it-and e'en its speechless fold,
So mereilessly riven,
Like narfyred AbePs blood wo,ld cry,
For vengeanee to the Heaven.
Dissolve the Union! never
You may not, if you would,
Go, Traitor, go for ever NJ
And hide you where you should:
For he who breathes dissension,
To shake a peoples trust,
Should cover back to nothingness,
Or crumble into dust.
