Reasons Why Women are Angels.

Men call Women Angels, but all do not know
The very best reasons why women are so;
IT'S not on account of the form or the face,
Tho glowing with beauty and fashioned with
grace
The sheen of the ringlets, or witchcrafts that
lie
Ambush'd in the lip, or the cheek, or the eye:
The form may be fauitless-the face may be
fair,
And yet not speck of the Angel be there,
Some women are angels, know very well;
List, Maiden! the why and the wherefore I'll
tell:
She has bright gem in the casket confined,
A gentle, pure, sober, intelligent mind;
A treasure nor beauty nor wealth can impart,
A tender, confding, and womanly heart;
Tho outward attractions the woman may spare;
With the gem in the casket, the Angel is there.
She stands at the altar her lover to plight,
Her heart is as pure as her ralment Is white.
Il promise to cherish thee-love thee-obey.
Is she not an angel! Ask him, he shall say;
She bends Ger the bed where her baby doth
sleep,
The watch and the ward of an angel to keep.
Her lap IS his altar, he prays on her knee
Which is most like an angel, the baby or she!
She waits by the sad couch of sickness and
pain,
Prays, watches and weeps, but doth never CON-
plain;
If weary and care-worn, harassed or oppressed,
He finds in her bosom sabbath of rest;
Deserted by fortune-deserted by friends,
Her love and fidelity make him amends;
She is more than an angel, that wife, aver,
No angel could nurse or console him like her.
Know then. Angel-Woman, thy mission below,
Not TO fascinate, charm and bewitch-no, no,
no.
To cherish The good, and the i'll to repress,
The helpless TO succor, the wretehed to bless
Thou doth sweeten our joys-thou enriehest
the store;
Much does earth owe thee, and Heaven much
more,
Thou bright thing Of tenderness, beauty and
love,
First an angel on earth, then an angel above.
Rev. Mr.. Barlow, of Chicago.

Nothing is lost. The drop that mingles with

iion of a whole neighborhood; it may spread like
wild-fre to produce disasterous effects. As no
word is lost be careful how you speak--speak
rioht. speak kindly. The influence you may exert

THE POETRY OF THE BIBLE.--We wonder not
at the simple faith Of the old Pagan Pantheists,
who saw their god in the glorious sun, heaai
him in the winds whispering through the forest
groves, and felt him in the silent beauty of earth
and sky. To this the Greeks added the classical
mythology which sprang from the cultivated
brain OF that highly civilized people; and the He
brews. whose religious ideas were far in advance
of the Greeks and all other ancient nations, add
ed the sublime conception Of God himself, as
the active ruler and governor Of nature, riding
upon :he wings o. the wind, shaking the earth
and making the pillars thereof tremble, quieting
it by the south wind. and making the morning
stars sing together for joy, wrapping himself
about with thick darkness, and employing the
lightning and the thunders as the ministers of
his Judgment. Thus, in all the aspect OF nature
did the Hebrew recognise his God; and alike in
the sunshine, the rain, the fire and the tempest.
did he hear 'the voice of the Lord" Hence the
sublime grandeur of the inspired Israelitish poets
stands out with startling brightness from the
material Pantheiam of remote times and their
great thoughts have descended through the cir
cling ages Of the world, TO beacon the way Of
truth and life to all men, Eliza Cooks Jour

THE CAliFukNIA FHtNoMENON.-'Fne Uld
World is very slow TO comprehend California.
Ii is as amazed and stupiied at the spectacle as
man who has seen wild beast, or a meteor,
or an exceedingly impertinent stranger Every
step in the progress o. this dashing new State
seems TO take us BY surprise; and by the time
we have opened our ewes wide enough to take
in one wonder, another is announced. While
our geologists were talking about aurifprous
streams, and granite and quartz, there were as
sembled on the bays and rivers Of California
community of a hundred thousand men-now,
perhaps. Of double that number. While our
humorsts were indnlging n grim jokes at the
vicissitndes and perils of california existence,
conventions had been held. council had been
elected, order had triumphed, and the laws were
oheged. Bb the time ready made house had
been sea out from The Thames, a city had been
built halt-deStroyed bg fire, and rebuilt Of more
durable materials, and on a grander scale At
last our people did begin to move, and they COM
mitied all sorts OF bunders. We have now news
from San Francisco 10 the lst OF last month, and

date, informs US of all sorts oil gducherieS COM
mitted by our merchants, usually sharp enough,
but fairly dstanced by California. Their ships.
it appears, have arrived in the dead OF winter,
when the roads were impossible, and when the
! port was already choked with goods, which there
were no means OF conveying to the interior.
Thev sent ont all sorts of rubbish, thinking that
any thing would do for the rough subjects with
| whom our fancy had peopled that fabulous re-
gion. They were dressing the gold-hunteT
with slops from the Minories, and buying his
dust with gaudy furniture and other refuse Of
our shops. These cargoes they sent out with
as little precanton as they would an investment
of red cloth and glass beads to newly discov-
cred island in the Pacific. and :hey now find out
to their cost that they ought to have despatched
a skiIlfn and cautious supercargo, or consigned
their goods TO some respectable house at Sar
Francisco; that they ought to be prepared tc
