Elijah the Tishbite.

There is no character on divine record
which more fully illustrates the many trials
and difficulties in the life of a pious man,
and the peculiar care and protection Of a
experimenting Providence, than that of
Elijah, the Tishbite. Behold him among
the long list of spiritual heroes, and there
you viii find him standing forth in his own
peculiar garniture of prophetic influence al
most at the head of his mighty band. in
power, majesty, and glory presenting him
self with peculiar efulgence to the eve, and
as one who fought valiantly for the advance
ment of the glory ofthe kingdom flour bless
ed Redeemer. He was a man of spiritual
valor, powerful in word and deed, and pos-
sessed that miraculous gift which the great
AN did not see fit to delegate to all his
holy prophets. Wrapt in the mantle Of
prophecy, he broke forth like fire, and his
words burned like a torch. He was so EN-.
inently distinguished by the grace of the
Divine Being, that when the Lord of glory
himself made his appearance upon earth.

10 my Mother.

TO my Mother.
Hail, mother dear whose venerable head,
With hoary hairs and unique cap o'erspread,
Proclaims that since thy youth first brought me
forth,
Old age has much increased thy worth;
When that loved face the cold grave doth con-
tain,
Its mem'ry still shall ever prove,
While fortunes flag, or sorrows move,
Or cares, the balm for these and every other pain.
Since comes the day, or soon or late,
When thou must leave me, as designed by fate,
This hour the happiest Of thy fading years,
With thee / will forget my cares;
And to thy health cold Dater shall go round,
(Since its like thee, but ripe to-day,
And longer age will bring decay,l
Till every chaste desire be quenched and gloom
be drowned.
Ali who the mothers secret power hath tried
For her, "upon his shield the Spartan died
Note Caius' march his country's cities fall
One after one they yield the embattled WALL
On woman's siren voice the die IS hung
Whether proud Rome shall sink a prey
Nor brides nor prayers could vengeance
stay,
Save one alone the thuDders of a mothers tongue
In vain the brook leaps Town the mountain side
Or chestnut copse spread high its leafy PRIDE
The garden plot transcends the heather bloom
These simple joys, believe me, are unknown
To wanderers over earth and main,
Who spurn low roof and bounded plaiT
And seek out queens from the mothers jewell
throne.
Cold are the distant hills hives not for me,
Are boarded there by the laborious bee;
Then no Preside brings comfort and soothes pal
No moral %counsels grace the desert plain,
Yet melancholy would invade my door,
Had l but ampler. means to love
Than thy swift hand and mine can Civ
For pride and avarice of love are ever poor.
