THE CHRISTIAN MARINER.

Launch thy bark, Mariner!
Christian, God speed thee!
Let loose thy rudder-bands--
Good angels lead thee!
Set thy sails warily,
Tempests will come;
Steer thy course steadily,
Christian, steer home!
Look TO the wcather-bow,
Breakers are round thee,
Let fall the plummet now,
Shadows may ground thee.
Reef in the foresail, there!
Hold the helnf'fast!
So-let the vessel wear
There swept the blast.
"What of the night, watchman,
What of the night 2"
Cloudy-all quiet
No land yet-all's right"
BE wakeful, be vigilant-
Danger may be
at an hour when all seemeth
Securest to thee.
How! gains the leak so fast?
Clean out the hold
Hoist up thy merchandise,
Heave out thy gold!-
There-let the ingots 60
Now the ship rights;
Hurrah the harbor's near
Lo, the red lights!
Slackcn not sail yet
AT inlet or island;
Straight for the beacon steer,
Straight for the high land;
Crowd all thy canvas on,
Cut through the foam
Christian, cast anchor now
Heaven is thy home!
Mrs. Southey.

cords Of affection were tuned to other songs
than those of sorrow. None but strangers
stood around that bed of death, yet did tears
flow, fast and numerous from those who there,
as here, are good Samaritans, casting from them
business and turning aside to guard the sick and
needy and pour the balm of consolation where
there is suffering, freely and unstinted.
Nothing now remains but to deposit in its
long resting place this lfeless form, this tene-
ment void now of that which ever made it wor-
thy of affection. The morrow's sun saw the
hearse receive its burden. In that land Of Pill.
grim memory, it was thought strange indeed,
yes, proclamation almost, to place the dead away
without mourners, following on in sad attire, in
garments of bereavement. Who should follow
now the long and friendless wanderer to the
tomb? one alone was found, though in relation
ship far distant, to lead in slow and measured
tread the funeral procession, to the depositary
of the dead. saw him lowered down into his
narrow home, and there we will leave him with
his God. She stood beside the grave that only
mourner, reclining on the arm of Him who had
been her gurdian and protector. Leaning for
ward she gazed along that dismal cavern, and in
secret raised the prayer, that those which heav-
en- had given her to love, instruct and cherish,
might never fill drunkards grare. Her body
now lies near where then she stood. A spot
within that high walled cemetry, appropriately
embellished, marked with the offerings of hearts
bereaved, is her sepucher If prayer is made
in heaven for loved ones left along ife's thorny
road, her spirit may be yet making the same Pc
titon as face to face she pleads with Him who
hears and answers,for her posterity; and by them
may that prayer be needed, for aught know
all are now this side the grave and breathing
still her sacred memory.
Reader, my story is finished. In it there is
something worthy of reflection. Blow off the
dust, rake off the rubbish, Qor there is much
l know, and you will find gem, precious
jewel. 'Tis small yet large-'tis like the wild
ow's cruise, the loaves and fishes. Enough for
all and yet there is plenty. Each take por-
ton, it will do no harm; there may some good
result. Should appetite allure your feet from
virtues path, call to mind this tale receive it
as a warning.

Cons TRUTH.-In one of his sacred songs,
David speaks of truth rs herald going before
the face of God to proclaim his glory. psalm
lxxxix. l4,) "Justce and judgment are the hab-
itation," or establishment, " of thy throne; mer-
cy and truth shall go before thy face" Here
observe that Christ's throne is strong throne.
No rebellion of man or of angels can shake or
endanger his throne. The mutiny of countless
angels did not affect his throne, when Satan and
his legions rebelled, and were cast out of heav-
en-. They could no more shake Gods throne,
than an insect could overturn mountain
What makes Gods throne so sure? tits estab-
lished by justice and judgment, by mercy and
truth. What blessed, what durable throne
is Christ's! 1t rests on four foundations. If
one of these were removed, his throne could not
stand for one hour. But they never can be re-
moved. They are immutable as Gods being
They are eternal as Gods nature.

A RIGnTEoUs JUDGE AND MERITED REBUKE.
Some time ago man was tried at Cambridge
for robbery committed on an aged gentle wo-
man in her own house. The Judge was Baron
Smith, man of an amiable character for rcli-
gion. He asked the gentlewoman if the prison.
er at the bar was the person who robbed her.
"Truly my lord" said she, 81 cannot posi-
lively say it was he, for it was duskish when
was robbed, so dark that could hardly discern
the features of his face"
"Where were you when he robbed you? %
81 was in closet that joins to my bed cham
ber, and had got into my house while my serv-
ant had gone out on an errand."
"What day of the week was it,"
1t was the Lords day evening, my lord"
How had you been employed when he rob-
bed you?"
"AIy lord, am Protestant dissenter /; had
been at the meeting that day. and had retired in.
TO my closet in the evening for praying and
meditation on what had been hearing through
the day. She had no sooner uttered these
words, than the court, which was crowded with
some hundred of students, rang with peal of
loud laughter.
The Judge looked round the court as one as
tonished, and with decent solemnty laid his
hand upon the bench, as if he was going to rise,
and with no small emotion of spirit, spoke to
the following effect:
"Good God where am | Am in the place
of one of the universities of this kingdom, where
it is to be supposed that young gentlemen are
educated in the principles of religion rs we'll as
in all useful learning and for such to laugh in
so indecent manner, on hearing an aged Chris
tan tell that she had retired into her closet on
a Lords day evening for prayer and meditation !!
Blush and be ashamed all of you, if you are ca
pable of it, as well you may; and if any ofyour
tutors are here, let them blush also to see in
how rreligous manner their pupils and stu
dents behave" And then turning to the lady
he said, don't be discouraged madam, by this
piece of rude and unmannerly, as well as irrel-
gous usage: you have no reason to be asham-
ed of what you have, on this occasion, and in
this public manner, said; on the contrary you
may glory in it. 1t adds dignity to your charac-
ter, and shame belongs to them who would ex-
pose it to ridicue.

AVnLAGE PREss-Perhaps no one establish
ment is of more advantage to a community than
that of newspaper press. A newspaper in u
village, with its various notices and advertise
ments, advances the interests of all trades, pro-
fessions and callings-drawing to its vicinity
much business that would otherwise be divert
ed into other channels and by giving promin-
ence and notorety abroad to the business capa-
bilities and other advantages of such village
The press is as it were, the special counsellor of
the citizens of the town wherein it is located
pleading in many cases without fee or reward; !;
and in some instances conveying light and heat
to establishments which might otherwise drag
their slow length along" in utter obscurity. n

The ALPINE HoRN.-The Alpine Horn is an
instrument made of the bark of a cherry-tree,
and like speaking trumpet, is used to convey
sounds to great distance. When the last rays
of the sun gild the summit of the Alps, the shep-
herd who inhabts the highest peak of these
mountains takes his horn and cries with loud
voice" Praised be the Lord" AS soon as the
neighboring shepherds hear him, they leave their
huts and repeat these words. The sounds are
prolonged many minutes, while the echoes of
the mountain and grottos of the rocks repeat the
name of God. Imagination cannot picture any
thing more solemn or sublime than such scene.
During the silence that succeeds the shepherds
bend their knees and pray in the open air, and
then repair to their huts to rest. The sunlight
gliding the tops of those stupendous mountains
upon which the vault of heaven seems to rest,
magnificent scenery around, and the voice of the
shepherds sounding from rock to rock the praise
of the Almighty, must fill the mind of every
traveller with enthusiasm and awe.

COMMISSIONERS OF SELECTION.


Our readers have not failed to notice the
complexion ofthe Commissioners appointed by
the three, who were appointed BY our "high-
err law Governor Jos. johnson. If the
number Of the Commissioners at the several
precincts were fire, we should not complain
that majority Of Democrats were appointed
at each We should expect something like
fair play. As it is various causes may COM
bine to operate injustice to the party having
but one Commissioner at any Of the precincts
In Jefferson, we perceive, there was fairness
enough to appoint majority Of Wings at
the precincts where the Wing party has q
majority. We hear the question asked fire.
quently, what sort Of Democracy that is
which gives the Governor the power to appoint
any three individuals be may choose to select,
or who may be recommended by party in q
County, to lord it over its citizens without
responsibility-aspecies of Deputy Governors
or Plenipoteutiaries, who can rule as their
own Supreme will may dictate, in matter Of
the highest privilege and right--that Of suf-
frage.
