THE CALL TO PRAYER,

Among the many beautiful allusions to the
solemn and soothing sound of the "cburch.
going hell,' rs it rings out on the clear
morning air of the Sabbath, commend us to
the following quaint, yet surprisingly effect.
i've homily, from the pen of the gifted Jcr-
rold, the well known author of est Giles
and st. James"
There is something beautiful in the church
bells. Beautiful and hopeful. They talk
to high and low, rich and poor, in the same
voice; there is a sound in them, that should
Stare pride and envy, and mcanncss of all
sorts from the heart of man: that should
make him look on the world with kind, for
giving eyes; that should make the earth
seem to him, at least for Il time, Il holy place.
Yes; there is whole sermon in the very
sound of the church bells, if we only have
the ears to understand it; there is Il preach
er in every bclI'ry that crics-''poor, weary,
struggling, fighting crcaturcs-poor human
things, take rest, be quiet. Forget your
vanitics, your lnllics, your weekday craft"
And you, ye human vessels, gilt and paint
cd, believe the iron tongue that tells yc, that
for all your gliding, all your colors, ye are
s;lme Adams earth, with the beggars in your
gates. Come away, come, cries the church
bell, and learn to be humble; learn that
however daubcd and stained about with jew
els, you are but grave clay! Come, Dives,
come, and be taught that all your glory, rs
you wear it, is not half SO beautiful in the
eye of Heaven, as the sores of tho uncom.
planning Lazarus; and ye, poor creatures,
livid and t;lint-stained and crushed ny tho
pride and hardships of tho world. Conlo,
come, cries the bell, with the voico of an
| angel, come and learn what is laid up for

AN EVENING SONG.

FATHER abovcl pray to Thee,
Before take my rest
seek Thee on my Bonded knee,
With warm and grateful breast.
First let me thank Thee for my share
OF sweet and blessed health;
1t is boon would not spare,
For worlds of shining wealth.
And next thank Thy bountcous hand,
That gives my daily bread
That filings the corn upon the land,
And keeps our table spread.
thank Thee for each peaceful night,
That brings me soft rcposc,
| thank Thee for the mornings light,
That bids my eyes unclose.
own Thy mercy when move
With limbs all sound and free,
That gally bear nc when rove,
Beside the moth and bee.
thank Thee for my kindred friends,
So loving and 50 kind;
Who tell me all that knowledge lends,
To aid my heart and mind.
All. let me value as ought,
The lessons good men teach,
To bear no malice in my thought,
No anger in my speech.
Father above. Oh. hear my prayer,
And let me ever be,
Worthy my earthly parents care,
And true in serving Thee.

As turning o'cr the fruitful soil

Made swceter by continuous toll.

So long as rank, unfruit!ul tarcs
Do not choke up his growing corn.

Within the burrows freshly made,
Or murmurs forth his simple song,
Unknown to those of lordly grade
His feet are bathed in morning dew,
For ere the sun his warm glow yields
In mornings first grey, misty hue,
He's plodding through the verdure fields
His face with health, and pleasure glows,
Far different from the lordly thrcng;
His checks are blooming like the rose,

His voice is open, bold and clear,
His step is steady while he walks,

Has but one simple wish or two;
And rs he labors on the plain,
His heart is light and merry too.
His song that floats upon the air,
And echoes in the wooded dell,
Breathes Of his love, his maiden fair,
Whose virtue he delights TO tell.
His bread is sweet, though brown it be,
His crystal liquid, pure and clear,
His heart is merry, light and free,
His maiden, as his, life is dear.
His rest at night is sweet and deep,
And with refreshments teens,
And while he rests his gentle sleep
Has for companions blssful dreams.
Plow ON thou hearty, fearless man,
Plow deeply in the fertile soil,
Thy ruddy check will ne'cr grow wane
From honest, constant steady toll.

Fen though encascd in robes more fine,
They'd give their pleasures fine robes too,
For hearts as light and as pure as thine.

Be READy.-Whcn you lie down at night
compose your spirit as il you were not to
awake till the heavens be no more. And
when you awake in the morning, consider
that new day as the last, and live according
ly. Surely that night comcth of which you
will never see the morning, or that morning
of which you will never see the night; but
which of your mornings or nights will be
such, you know not. Let the mantle Of
worldly enjoyments hang loose about you
that it may be easily dropped when death
comes to carry you into another world.
When the corn is iorsaking the ground it is
ready for the sickle; when the fruit is ripe,
it falls Of the tree easily. So when a Chris
'ian's heart is truly weancd from the world,
he is prepared for death, and it will be the
more easy for him. A heart disengagcd
from the world is a heavenly y one; and then
we are ready FORA heaven, when our heart
is therefore bssope- us.
