SPEAK GENTLY.

Speak gently 1T is better far
To rule by love than fear
Speak gently-let no harsh word mar
The good We might do here
Speak gently. Love doth whisper low
The VOWS that true hearts bind:
And genial friendships accent flow;
Affections voice is kind.
Speak gently to the little child
Its love be sure to gain
Teach it in accents soft and mild -
1t may not long remain.
Speak gently to the young, for they
viii have enough to bear
Pass through life as best they may,
'Tis full of anxious care.
Speak gently to the aged one,
Grievc not the care-worn heart,
The sands of life are nearly run,
Let such in peace depart.
Speak gently, kindly, to the poor,
Let no harsh term be heard,
They have enough they must endure,
Without IN uul:ind word!
Speak gently to the crring-know
They may have toiled in vain;
Pcrchance unkindness made them so;
Oh, win them back again.
Speak gently! He who gave his life
To bend mans stubborn will,
When clements were fierce with strife,
Said to them, "Peacc, be still"
Speak gcntly.-'tis little thing
Dropped in the hearts deep well;
The good, the joy which it may bring
Eternity shall tell.

SPRING..

Spring is coming Spring is coming!
With her sInshine and her shower;
Heaven is ringing with the singing
OF the birds in brake and bower;
Buds are filing, leaves are swelling,
Flowers on field and bloom on tree;
Ger the earth, and air and ocean,
Nature holds her jubilee.
Soft then stealing comes feeling
Ger my bosom tcnderly;
Sweetly Iponder as wonder,
For my musings are of thee.
Spring is coming-Spring is coming
With her mornings fresh and light;
With her noon of chequered glory,
Sky of blue and clouds of white.
. Calm grey nightfalls, when the light falls
From the stars bespangled sky,
While the splendor, pale and tender,
OF the young moon CLEANS OH high.
Dtlll dl at uOOtl, AT cNclp
Spring is full of joy for me.
For ponder as l wonder,
And my musings are Of thee.
Still on thee my thoughts are dwelling,
Whatso'er thy name may be;
Beautiful, beyond words telling,
Is thy presence unto me.
Mornings breaking finds thee waking
Wandering in the breezc's flight;
Noontide's glory mantles Ger thee
In q shower of sunny light;
Daylight dying leaves thee lying
In the silvery twilight ray;
Stars look brightly on thee nightly
Till the coming of the day.
Everywhere and every minute
Feel near thee, lovely one;
In the lark and in the linnet
l can hear thy joyous tone.
Bud and blooming mark the coming
Of thy feet o 'er vale and hill;
And thy presence, with life's essence,
Makes the t>rest's heart to fill.
Low before thee, l adore thee,
Love creative, thee sing;
Now meet thee, and greet thee
By the holy name of Spring

A WRATHFUL ECCLESIASTIC.

We had occasion, q shor, time since, to comment OF
an extraordinary letter from Louis Koseuth, wherein hi
Senate Of the United States was severely a~rraigned for re
iecting the nomination of George Sanders as Consul L
London. Another eminent foreigner, of very different cha
racter, has undertaken 10 avsnge q personal grievance BY
snesrinsIa, the government Of this country. During his So
journ 10 the United States, M~onsiRuor Bedini, the Papa
Nunclo, was subjected to some slight indiguity by over. yea.

express great Indignation at the rudeness of the Baltimore
mob. The representative of the Pope, having no ambition
tor tho crown of m%artyrdom, sought some security aeains,
personal outrage At the Department of State. No doubt
Governor Marcy felt a secret contempt for the fright Of the
timid priest, but he gave him the only protection in his
p~ower-the security of a safe conduct.
Monoiguor Bedini left this country by stealth, and a..
saped to London. With an ocean rolling between him and
MS pagan persecutors, bis valor rises to an heroic pitch.

that is another question. That country is 10 n critical state,
and may give US all a great deal of trouble. And now l will
take my leave OF you; which his Majesty proceeded to do
BY shaking hands with me very graciously.
II instantly occurred TO me that the conversation was 10.
complete, and might never be renewed; and, us The Emperor
still held my hand, l said: Sir, with your gracious permits.
sion, l would desire TO take a eroat liberty. Certainly, his
Majesty replied, "What Is i'll Let me hear"

charge me with general assurances as TO the identity Of
views between the TWO Cabinets, which %assuredly have Civ.
On me tho greatest pleasure, and will be received with equal
satisfaction in Eogland. But ! should be particularly glad
lhut your,M slesty should add a few words which may tend
to calm the anxiety with regard to the affairs OF Turkey,
which passing events are 30 calculated to excite on The part OF
her MaJesty's government. Perhaps you will be pleased to
charge me with some additional assurances Of this kind.
The Emperors words and manner, although still very kind,
showed ina, his NlsJesty had no intention Of speaking TO me
of the demonstration which he is about 10 make in the south.
he said, however, at first with q little hesitation, but, as he
proceeded 10 an open and unhesitating name, "The affairs
OF Turkey are In a very disorganized condition the country
Itself seems TO be falling 10 pieces; The fall will be a great
misfortune, and 1t Is very important that England and Rus.
sa should come TO a perfectly good understanding upon these
which the other is not apprised."

imperial Majesty held this language that this was certainly

are TO be treated. ~

not the time to speak to you on that matter"
IL was clear that the Emperor did not intend to p,olono
the conversation. l therefore said Your Majesty is SO
gracious that you will allow ma TO make one further obser.
vation. Your Majesty says tho man is sick. II is very true:
your Majesty will deign TO excuse me il l remark, that

The Emperor then took leave of me In a manner which
etWuse5ed the Impression OF my having at least no, given Of.
