PRIVILEGES OF THE SABBATH.

The Sabbath is the day when YOU NAV
sit down to the Bible without fear of dis
turbance. 1t is the day when, with our
snless progenltors, you may take the
tour Of Paradise, and listen to the anthems
of newly created world; it is the dav
when, alongside Of Encch, you NAV feed
the flame of devotion, and try TO divine
the wonder, and imbibe the ardor of
walk with God. 1t is the day when, ac-
cording to your various moods, you NAV
mourn with abraham at Machpela, or
mediate with Isaac in the fields efMamre,
or go down into Egypt to view Jacob in
all his glory. 1t is the day when you
may bid Jacobs star twinkle anew, and
Lachariah's fountain flow amain. 1t is
the day when you may fill your car with
draughts Of melody from David's sound
ing Tyre, or let your spirit ride aloft on
Ezekiel's flying wheels. 1t is the day
when you may take pleasant walk TO
Batheny or EmmauS, or as fourth diSci-
pie ascend Tabor with Peter, James and
John. 1t is the day when, with Mary.
you may clasp that cross which quivers
no longer, and look up 10 those pale and
painless lips, which need never rereat,
q 1t is finished" and gaze on that coun-
tenance, in death so divine, and beneath
its thorny crown so blissful and SO be-
nign, till it says 20 you, g. BE of good
cheer, thy sins are forgiven" 1t is the
day when, in the upper chamber, you
may listen 20 the sermon of Paul, or a
pilgrim to Patmos along with the beloved
disciple, Jesus again.
And it is the day for prayer-the Sab
bath itself one closet, and your quiet
chamber another-a closet within closet
where you may surely shut ont the world,
and get very near to God-the dav for
looking back for confession, for eyeing the
Lamb that was slain-the day for looking
forward for self dedication, for holy reso-
lutions, for obedience begun anew. And
it is the day for public worship, when the
glad bells say, :" Go We TO the house of
the Lord" and willing worShipper an
swers, . Thy face. Lcrd, Will | SEEK
And it is the day for Christian converse,
when, coming from the house of God in
company, pious friends take counsel one
with another and when, under the quiet
roof, they read, or 90 over the sermon, or
commune together. And it is the day
for family instruction, when the hymns
are sung and the chapters read, and the
truth in Jesus expounded; and when the
father affec,ionately strives TO leave the
lessons cf heavenly wisdom beddcd in
filial love. 1t is the day for the Sabbath
school, and the prayer-meetng, and the
visit of mercy. 1t is the day when, so
that you do not exhaust yourself or over
task others. you may give every moment
to the one thing needful {; the day which
is best employed when the soul gets all,
and heaven gets all, and God gets all

FOREIGN AND AMERICAN mus.a

MEsSRs. EDITORS: NV attention. b.s
just been called to an article in the Sen,,.
mel of the 18th inst, in which appears .
lengthy communication on " American
Music. Its novelty has much amused
me, and induces me to hazard a reply.
|, too, would ask, Have we National
Music g If so, let it be made known
and encouraged; but where is it! or does
1t only consist in the few good old tunes
mot excepting Yankee Doodle) which
T. ID. h. enumerates? | ask. then. where
Is our National Music! Where are our
National Schools in which it has been
taught and foStereI And where does
1T exist in our social circles And since
when has 1t formed part Of the educa-
ton of our youth {. ID. Z. could cer-
talnly not have made II part of his, or
else he could not have written about
Foreign music" as he has done. And
now let me ask, what is this foreign mu-
sic which he disclaimse Does he not
know it to be the fruit of that noble art
which is SO much neglected amongst us 2
Does he not know the time, study and
patronage which has been bestowed upon
it in Europe, as the most enchanting of
the arts; and how can he possibly ex.
pect that we, untutored and unlearned,
should be sufficiently able to comprehend
it, still less to compete with it. Instead,
therefore. of discouraging the public
taste for the works of our great masters
of old, it strikes me, as a true friend of
music, every means should be reSorted
to for the more extended diffusion of these
great works amongst us, as it is only by
hearing and studying them that we may
learn to initiate, and hereafter hone to
excel. How can we attempt to read
without first learning to srell; and is it
not SO with every art We might as
well ridicule all the old writers, authors,
poets, and painters. as c. ID. E. does
& Foreign music, when unread and un-
studied, we are unable to understand or
appreciate them. Furthermore, c. ID. Z.
could hardly have practised singing in
the English, French, German and Italian
languages, without feeling that the former
was the most trying and most unharmo-
NOUS of all, and not suitable for the mu-
slcal compositions adapted to the more
soft and expressive Italian.
However, | say, let US, By all means,
have * American Music" Let it be made
a part of the private and public educa-
ton of our rising generation, as it would
tend more than anything to improve the
condition of our social circles, both Of
young and old.
If you agree with me, dear sirs, you
will oblige me by permitting these re-
marks to appear in your columns.
L remain very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
AMATEUR.

The JEWS IN AUsTRIA.-The Austrian
government has signalised itself by a
backward step in civilization. 1t has
restored disabilities which the barbarism
of the middle ages imposed upon the
Jews, and which were only removed by
the revolution of l84S. The Austrian
government seems determined that no
benefit shall accrue to any class of its
subjects from that revolution. Hereafter,
the Jews in Austria are forbidden to hold
real estate in their own name, but all
property of the description to which they
lay claim, must be registered in the name
of Christians.

TIE EMPEROR NICHOLAS The Wash
ington correspondent of the North inner
lca,s learns that there is considerable rea-
son to believe the European rumor that
the Emperor of Russia is about to abdi-
cate in favor of his son. Nesselrode.
and others of the Ministry, earnestly
favor the retiring of the Russian troops
from the Principalities, and will not sec
ond the Cars desire for war. 1t is un-
derstood that they now admit that the
hereditary insanity of the Romanotfs has
fallen upon him. He has threatened to
abdicate in the Cabinet, and his family
presist in opposition. Well informed
parties believe abdication will be forced
upon him in order to get Russia out of
the scrape.
1t is said the Car is one of the vain
est men in the world, and drinks cham
paigne before breakfast. Heis very tall =,
and, a recent work says, lis very proud
of it; too proud, perhaps, as he has ac-
quired the habit of certain airs, which
often give him strong resemblance to
a peacock when about to spread his tail.
1t is a fact well known in St. Petersburg,
that every well grown man newly re.
cruited for the guard is called into the
Emperor presence, who measures heights
with him. His air is serious, his glance
wild, even a little savage; his entire
physiognomy has something hard and
stern iii it; his gestures are abrupt, and
he cuts his words in pronouncing them.
The Emperor never shows himself but in
the military costume, the stiffness of
which is in perfect keeping with his tastes.
and which makes his great height still
more conspicuous. Meanwhile there is
want of ease in his movements: since a
fall from his horse, he drags one leg after
him, in diSagreeably inelegant manner. a"
