A COMMENTARY UPON ABoL1r1oNIsN.-
Bishop Capers, of South Carolina, says the
Richmond Dispatch, is gentleman Of great
piety, was the owner Of a large plantation
and one hundred slaves. A few years ago
he was seized with the emancipation fever,
and resolved to set them all free. He gave
up to their use for three years, the plan
tation and all that was upon it; horses,
cattle, farming utensils, and all, telling
them that if they succeeded well, at the
end Of that time, they should have their
freedom and all they had made. When the
time had expired, he found that they had
made nothing, that the stock was all killed
for their use, that all the farming imple-
ments were destroyed, that the horses had
died and not been replaced, that there was
no corn in the corn-houses, or cotton at the
gin, and that they were on the point Of
starvation. He became satisfied that they
were incapable of shifting for themselves,
and very wisely took them once more under
his own charge.

The LAW MATRIMoNIAL.-We are in
debted for the following to the Editor
Table of the last KmickerbOcker
"Pray, may l ask, " said an English
bibliopole of distinction, at an agreeable
party where we had the pleasure to meet
him the other evening, May l ask wheth-
er in America the law matrimonial entities
a man to marry the cousin of his widow -
/" Oh, yes, answered legal gentleman of
eminence present, that is admissible; but
there has been some doubt in our courts as
to the propriety Of mans marrying the
sister of his deceased aoJfe. " "Oh, ay, )"
replied the querist, " in England it is some
what different. There it has been, and is
still held, that no man can marry the cousin
Of his widow; because, before he has a
widow, he must die himself. "

MILTON ON HIS LOSS OF SIGHT.

I am old and blind!
Men point at smittin by Gods frown;
Afflicted and deserted of my kind,
Yet am not cast down
am weak, yet strong;
! murmar not, that | no longer see;
Poor, cid, and helpless, the more belong,
Father Supreme! to Thee.
@ merciful One!
When men are furthest then Thou art most near
When friends pass by, my weaknesses to shun,
Thy chariot hear.
Thy glorious face
Is leaning toward me, and its holy light
Shines in upon my lonely dwelling place
And there is more night.
On my bended knee,
/ recognise Thy purpose clearly shown;
NV vision Thou hast dimmed, that may see
Thyself, Thysel alone.
| have nought to fear;
This darkness is the shadow of thy wing;
Beneath it am almost sacred-here
Can come no evil thing.
Oh! | seem to stand
Trembling, where foot of mortal ne'er hath been,
Wrapped in the radiance from thy sinless land,
Which eye hath never
Visions come and go;
Shapes of resplendent beauty round me throng.
From angel lips seem to hear the flow
OF soft and holy song.
It is nothing now,
When Heaven is opening on my sightess eyes
When airs from Paradise refresh my brow;
The earth in darkness lies.
In purer cline,
My being fills with rapture-waves of thought
Roll in upon my spirit-strains sublime
Break over me unsOught.
Give me my Tyre!
I feel the STRINGS of gift divine,
Within nay bosom glows unearthly fire,
Lit by no skill of mine.
