DAILY. EVENING STAR.
"a THE DAY OF REST,
q flss yassifc from eraAamsi, g,

a ins passage from eraAer.s', sa55asa., "a. :
Hsw sin the morning Of the haIlow,d dayI
Mute y the voice OF rural laoor, bush'd Tt-.--
Inc PioughDoy's whistle and the mikmaids song.
TIE scythe lies gittering in the dewy wreath
Ot tedded grass, mingled with faded flowers
nat ye>tefmoFn bloom'd waving in the breeze.
Sound the most faint attract the ear:-the hmm
tf eariY-h:e. The uiekiing Of the dew, - .--.-.
The distant Heating, midway up the hill.
CalInness SITS ulroaed on yon uninoviDg cloud.
To him vim wandssse'er the upland leas
The bidckbirds note comes InelIower from the dale
And sweeier from the sky the gieesome lark
MARBLES ms heaven tuned song the iulJinp brook
MuTmurs more gently down the deep worn glen :
Mhhr rom yon lowly root, whole curling smoke
Oennonnfs the mist, ia heard at intervals --=
The voice of psalms, the simple song Of praise.a
With dove-iisr wings peace Ger you village broods;
The dIxtysag MAJ wheel rests the anviis diR y -
Hath ce<sefs al all around is quietness.
Less fearful ca this day, the iimping hare
stops, and looks back and stops, and looks on man.
Her dead'est fne~ The toil-worn horse, set free,
tnhecdtul of the pasture, roams az large;
And as his stiff uRweidly bulk he rolls, -.s-s
HIS iron nd hoofs gieam in the morning raw.
But chisny.Ksn the day Of rest enjoys. 90.
Hail, sabbath, thee hail, the poor mans dayi
On other days tha n,aR Of toll Is doom'd .
To eat his jOylrss bread lonely; the ground
both seat and board, screen'd from the winters
And summers heat by neighborine hedge or tree.
But on this day, embOsomd in his home,
lie shares the frugal meal with those he loves:
With those he Loves be shares his heart felt ioy
of giving thanks to Ged,-not thanks of form.
A word and grimace, but reverently,
Win Gogsl'd,face and upward earnest eye.
Hail, Sabbath thee hail, the poor mans day;
The pale mechanic now has leave to breathe
Inc morning air, pure from the city's smoke
hiie, wandering slowly up the riverside, -.-=
tie meditates on Him whose power he marks
In each green tree that proudly spreads the bouph
As IN The tiny dew bent flowers that bloom
Around lis root: and while he thus surveys
WIN elevated Joy, each rural charm,
ne hobes yet fears presumption in the hope
That heaven may be one Sabbath without end.

come out of this, and, therefore, went to

to our waters being for the purpose Of
obtaining stores, their supplies having

pear to be under the best possible disci-

~
Expulsion of the American Minister.
From the frequent insults to the Amer
ican Flag and to our citizens who have a
right to claim its protection, we must i'm
fer that its shadow is gradually growing
less. that Americans when abroad conduct
themselves with insuferable arrogance, or
that other nations, aware of the long-suf.
fering of ours, offer to our flag insults
which to petty sovereignty would be a
cause of war.
The arrest of the American Minister,
Mr.. Soule, at Calais, while ON bis way
from London to Madrid, was an act worthy
of an Emperor of a nation in which kings
and nobility hold their heads by an uncer-
tain tenure; worthy of monarch, who
may well hold himself in readiness to spring
from his throne at the cry of viva la Re-
publique!" and muffled in PEASANTS
dress, seek asylum from his own subjects
in neighboring realm.
Such an empire isno place for the Soule
family, whose proclivities for the duello
manned noble Marquis, and whose gal
lantry set in commotion.a royal household.
1t is probable that Napoleon took this
way to be revenged on, and humiiate
personal enemy, trusting to chance and
skilful diplomatists to heal the breach such
an act might make between the French
and American nations, well knowing that
Mr.. Soule's erratic course has been the
object of censure both at home and abroad.
Certain it is that the Emperor is not
insane enough to break up the friendly re-
iations with the United States, and array
on the side of his enemies the very nation.
he has most reason to dread. 1t must
therefore be hostility to the man, and not
the Ambassador, that has prompted this
bold act, for though while in France he
was buta plain American citizen, he was
entitled to courtesy as such. however OBJ
noxious he may have before been to that
government-particularly when it was
known that he was on his way to resume
his official duties.
MIR. Soule is the last man who should
have been sent Minister to Spain, with his
fllibustering and hot-headed republican
principles. His conduct while there has
given him worldwide notoriety, and his
indiscretions have no doubt occasioned
this difficulty for cooler heads to settle;
and though there need be little apprehen-.
sion of war resulting therefrom, still, like
the Dillon difficulty, it will separate wider,
the two nations that unitedly fought for
the liberty we are enjoying. Perhaps if
Mr.. Soule were recalled and another less
distinguished were sent to fill his place at
the Court of Madrid, his troubles would
be at an end.
