| OPENING PRAYER AT THE LONDON ExHI-
BiTioN.-Ihe following is the admirable
prayer OF the Archbishop of Canterbury, at
| the opening OF the Great Exhibition in Lon
don. 1t Will be read with interest by many
of our subscribers:
almighty and everlasting God, who dost
govern all things both in heaven and in earth
without whom nothing is strong, nothing is
holy, accept, ave beseech Thee, the sacrifice
ofpraise and thanksgiving, and receive these
our prayers which we offer up unto Thee this
day on behalf of the kingdom and people of
this land. We acknowledge, o Lord, that
thou hast multiplied on us blessings which
Thou mighiest most justly have Withheld
We acknowledge that it is not because of
works of righteousness which we have done,
but OF Thy great mercy, that we are permit
ted to. come before Thee with the voice of
thanksgiving, and that instead of humbling
us for our offences Thou hast given us cause
tO-thank Thee for thine abundant goodness.
And now. o Lord, we beseech Thee to bless
the work which Thou hast enabled US to be-
gin. and to regard with Thy favor our pur-
pose of knitting together in the bonds of
peace and concord the different nations of
the earth; for with Thee, o Lord, is the pre-
paration of the heart in man. OF Thee it
cometh that violence is not heard in our land,
wasting nor destruction within its borders
1t Is of Thee, o Lord, that nations do not lift
up the sword against each other nor learn
war any more; it is of Thee that peace is
within our walls and righteousness within our
palaces; it is of Thee that knowledge is in
creased throughout the world, for the spirit
of man is from Thee, and the inspiration Of
the Almighty giveih him understanding
Therefore, o Lord, not unto us, not unto US,
but Unto Thy name be all the praise. While
we survey the works of art aud industry
which surround us, let not our hearts be lift
ted up that we forget the Lord our God as If
our own power and the nigh: of our hands
had gotten us this wealth. Teach us ever to
remember that all this store which we have
prepared cometh OF Thine hand and is all
Thine own. Both riches and honor come of
Thee, and Thou reignest over all. In thine
hand It is to make great and to give strength
unto all. Now, therefore, 0 God, we thank
Thee; we praise Thee and intreat Thee so to
overrule this assembly of many nations that
it may tend to the advancement of Thy glory,
to the diffusion Of Thy holy word, to the in
crease of general prosperity, by promoting
peace and good will among the different ra-
ces of mankind. Let the many mercies
which we receive from Thee dispose our
hearts to serve Thee more faithfully, who
art the anthor and giver of them ALL And,
finally, 0 Lord, teach us so to use those
earthly blessings which thou givest us richly
to enjoy, that they may not withdraw our af
fections from those heavenly things which
Thou hast prepared for those that love and
serve Thee, through the merits and media
ton of Thy son Jesus Christ our Lord to
whom, with Thee and the Holy Ghost, be all
honor and glory.

disposition in men ofoPposite minds to despise
each other. A grave man cannot conceive
what is the use Of wit in society; person
who takes a strong common sense view ofthe
subject, is for pushing out by the head and
shoulders, an ingenious theoriSt, who catches
at the slightest and faintest analogies; and
another man, who scents the ridiculous from
alar, will hold no commerce with him who
tests exquisiely the finer feelings ofthe heart,
and is alive to nothing else! whereas, talent
is talent, and mind is mind, in all its branches.
Wit gives to life one ofits best favors; com
mon sense leads to immediate action, and
gives society its daily motion; large and COM
prehcusive views of its annual rotation; ridi-
cue chastises folly and impudence, and
keeps men in their proper sphere ;subtlety sci
yes hold of the fire threads Of truth; analogy
darts away to the most sublime discoveries; ;
feeling pants all the exquisite passions OF
mans soul, and rewards him by a thousand
inward yisitations for SORROWS that come from
without. God made it all! it is good. We
must despise no sort of talent; they all have
their separate duties and uses, all the happi-
ness Of man for their object, they all i'm

NIGHT,
ny HENRY W. LoNGrELLow.


The cay Is done, AMI the darkness
Falls from the WINS Of night,
AS feather Is waited downward
From an eagle in his flight.
I see the lights of the village
Clam through the rain and the mist,
AM Feeling Of 81 IN rs comes GERM,
That my soul cannot resist.
A feeling ~ sadness and longing,
That Is not akin TO pain,
And resembles sorrow only
As the mist resembles the rain,
Come read to me some poem,
Som. simple AMI hear'f.ltI,v,
That shall soo'he this restless feeling,
And Danish the thoughts of day,
Not from The grand oil masters,
Not from IN harris sublima,
Whose distant footsteps echo
Through the corridors Of time.
For. like IN, strains OF martial music,
Their mighty thoughts suggest
Ii'c's endl .sS toll and eIdeayor!
And Tonight long for rest.
Read from some humble poet,
Whose songs cash from his heart,
As showers from the clouds of summer,
Oh tears from the eyelids start.
Who, through long days of labor,
And nights devoid OF ease,
Sill, heard in his soul the music
Or wonderful melodies.
Some SONGS have power TO quiet
The restless pulse of care,
AM comes like the beneliction
That follows after prayer.
Then read from the treasured volume
The poem of thy choice,
And lend TO I've rhyme Of the poet
The beaUy vi tiny voice.
And the night shall be filled with music,
And the cares that infeSt the day
Shall fold mp their tents. like the Arabs,
And as silently steal away.
