When lips Of love- and eyes of light,
Are shrouded in eternal night
Oh, tits the Christians lot alone,
To say at heart, g. Thy will be done,"
When link by link, the golden chain
OF earthly ties is rent in twain,
When the poor wounded bleeding heart,
Sees one by one its joys depart,
Who, who, can soothe Fathers grief.
Or give Mothers relief
If human sympathy could give
That Wondering dust, the power to live;
That precious band that missing four
Should bless their earthly home more.
But He, who is the Christians trust,
Shall raise them from that Wondering dust,
He will the quckenng spirit give,
And those sweet babes again shall live. NJ J. s.

81 For some weeks past, an unusual de-
gree of religious interest has been perceptible
in most Of the churches in Lawrence, Mass.
Religious meetings have been numerously at
tended, and quite a number of hopeful CONVEX
sions have occurred.
religious feeling has for some weeks pervaded
that community. A revival which COM
menced in the Methodist Church is still in
progress, and almost every denomination has
shared in its benefits. There probably never
was time when more solemn, deep-felt Sc
robustness rested upon the people. Upwards
of one hundred and fifty, we learn, have been
added to the Methodist Church, and there has
been considerable addition also to the Bap-
tists.''
The Congregational Society in Hailowell,
Rev. Mr.. Skeele's, have lately constructed a
new vestry nearly opposite the church. At
the dedication few weeks since, an oppro-
pirate sermon was preached by the pastor. A
large portion Of the money raised for the new
building was raised by the ladies. The In
terror is divided into two rooms, separated by
folding-doors,- of large size for usual YES
try meetings, and the other smaller, for church
meetings and small gatherings, Both rooms
are carpeted, contain cushioned settees and are
heated by furnace. Altogether, outside and
in, the new vestry is one of the neatest to be
found anywhere, forming striking contrast
to the damp underground receptacle heretofore
used, and rejecting much credit upon the So
ciety.
