Lamp ofour feet whereby we trace
Our path when wont to stray;
Stream from the fount ofheavenly grace,
Brook by the travellers way!
Bread of our souls, wherein we feed,
True mamma from on high
Our Guide and chart wherein we read
Ofrealms beyond the sky!
Pillar of fire through watches dark;
Our radiant cloud by day;
When waves would 'whelm our tossing bark,
Our anchor and our stay
Pole-star of LIES tempestuous deep;
Beacon when doubts surround;
Compass by which our course we keep;
Our deep sea lead to sound
Riches in poverty--our aid
In every needtul hour;
Unshaken rock--the pilgrims shade
The soldiers fortress tower
Our shield and bucler in the fight;
Victory's triumphant calm!
Comfort in grief; in weakness might
In sickness, Gileads balml
Childhoods preceptor; manhood's trust;
Old ages firm ally;
Our hGpe---when we go down to dust
OF Immortality!
Pure oracle OF Truth Divine.
Unite each fable dream,
Give forth from Delphi's mystic shrine,
Or grove of Academic!
Word of the ever living God!
Will of his glorious Son!
Without thee, how could earth be trod,
Or Heaven itself be wont

Mr.. Webster on the Presidents Death.

The following is the beautiful exordum of the
noble speech delivered by Mr. Webster in the Sc
nate, on Wednesday last;
Mr.. President, it was my purpose, on Tuesday of
last week, to have followed the honorable member
from South Carolina, Mr.. Butler) who was addessng
the Senate on the morning OF that day, with what
then had and now have to say on the subject OF this
bill. But before the honorable member had
his remarks, it announced here that the late
Cief Magistrate of the United States danger
ously i'll that tie Senate was moved to adjourn, The
Senate adjourned and the solemn event Of the decease
OF the late Chief Magistrate announced the next
morning.
Sir, there are various reflections which cannot but
present themselves to the minds OF men growing out
of that occurrence. The Chief Magistrate Of a great
republic died suddenly. Recently elected to Of
flee by the spontaneous voice othe people, possessing
in high degree their confidence and regard, ere yet
be had had fair opportunity 10 develop the princi-
Piles ofhs civil administration, he fell by the stroke of
death. And yet, Sill, mixed with the sad thoughts that
this event suggested and tie melancholy feelings which
spread over the whole country the rea lovers and ad-
mirersof constitution and Government the midst
Of their grief and affection for this loss, found
thing gratifying to their reflections The executive
head Of great nation had fallen suddenly. No dis
turbanee arose no shock was felt in great and free
republic Credit public and private, in way
disturbed. Danger to the community or to individuals
was nowhere felt. The National Legislature was not
prorogued, there any further delay the exer
else oithe ordinary functions OF every branch OF the
Government than such as was necessary for the in-
dulgenee-the proper ndulgence--of the grief which
afflicted Government and People.
Sir, ter his country General Taylor did not live long
enough But there were circumstances attending his
death that fortunate. that for his fame and
character, and Tor the qualification of all to whom he
most dear, he may be said to have died fortunately
"Tha life is good which answers LIES great end"
Bred soldier accomplished in his profession, he had
achieved all that to be expected from him III that
character Placed at the head of the Government, as
have said by the free voice OF the people, he died in
the midst of domestic affection and domestic peace
He det in the full possession of the gratitude OF his
country He died in the consciousness of duty per-
formed He died in the midst OF the counsels OF his
country His country, through u.s. its organs, have
bestowed on him those marks of affection, grand and
imposing, such as the republic pours the most dis
tinguishd OF her sons He has run the race destined
for hiniby Providence. He sleeps with the blessings Of
his coplIymen.

ni6cent rivers, such as the world never be-
fore saw, course like veins upon its surface,
scattering fertility along their pathways,
and bearing upon their BOSOM the products
of Industrious millions to the great entrepots

surface like network, binding the whole
together in indissoluble union. S~eminaries

institutions. No people rejoice in such un-
fsttered liberty; none enjoy more complet
protection in person and property. Such is
the idea of union at home. Abroad our
country is the beacon ! ght Of the nations
who yearn for liberty. It is the cynosure of
hope to the millions struggling to be free.

terrors Of the shock it would in1ict upon the
moral world? No tempest, no earthquake,
no calamity yet experienced by man, could
be so terrific and awful. No judgement of
Providence could smite the heart Of the
world with such sickening horror, such
hopeless despair, as the destruction of this
great and glorious Union. Must it not, then,
be preserved? And what patriot could
contemplate its dissolution except with fear
