The blazing Crate.

We used tohave a blazing crate,
And | would sit and sew.
and when the window pane would shake.
How would the baby crow;
But mother said the whistling wind,
Would make our hearts more dear.
And then | laid my needle down,
The roaring blast to hear.
We used to set the table on,,
And joyous was the meal,
the vapory wreath from silver urn,
Would 10 the ceiling steal;
And while the rudy ire-light danced,
We balhed US in its glow.
While every bosom warned afresh,
And love had overflow.
We gather round tie embers now,
Our silver urn is gone,
Our iather's face has rugged lines,
And mothers cheek is van;
Thc polished walnut piece 81 piece,
Has been exchanged for bread,
And the dear babe who used to crow,
mas gone 70 join the dead.
now s'eIn resssses chill the heart?
We scarcely smile in Wee.
And they who Gght for daiiy hread
Have lost Hopes ardent eiou
God be the friend Of those Who tn,
By adverse fate depressed,
mid this cold earth some warmth i. v.;n.a
By leaning on His breast.

TO DELINQUENTS.

-
In seasons when our funds are low,
Subscribers are provoking slow,
And new supplies keep up the flow
OF dimes, departing rapidly.
But we shall see a sadder sight
When duns pour in from morn till night;
Commanding every sixpence bright
To be forked over speedily.
Our bonds and due bills are arrayed-
Each seal and signatures displayed
The holders vow they must be paid,
With threats Of Law and Chancery.n
Then to despair we're almost driven
There's precious little use of Twin,
When our last copper is rudeley riven
From hands that held it lovingly.
But larger yet those dimes shall grow,
When interests added on below;
L%ength'ning our chin a foot or SO,
While gazing at them hopelessly.
IT'S so, that scarce have we begun
To plead for time upon a dun,
Before there 70 another one,
Demanding pay ferociously.
The prospect darkens. On, We brave,
Who would our very bacon save!
Waive, Patrons! all your pretexts waive!
And pay the Printer cheeriully.
All! it would yield us pleasure sweet,
a lew deiinquenis now TO meet,
ski OF us a clear rareinf
For papers taken regularly.

FORGIVENESS

Man hath two attendant angels
Ever waiting at his side.
With him whereso'er he wanders,
Whereso' er his feet abide;
One TO warn HIM when he walke;h,
And rebuke him if he stray;
One TO leave him to his nature,
And so let him 60 his way.
Two recording splits, reading
All his iite's minutest part.
Looking in his soul. and listening
To the beatings OF his heart;
Each, with pen of iie electric,
Writes the good or evil wrought
Writes with truth, that add not. errs not,
Observation-Disclosures thought.
One, the Teacher and Reproyer,
Marks each misunderstanding deed;
Graves it with the lishtning's yigor,
Seals it with the lightning's speed;
For the good that man achieveth-
Good beyond an angels doubt
Such remains for aye and ever,
And cannot be blotted out.
One tsevere and silent WatcherD
Notetu every cIitue dno Sui.e,
Writes it with a holy duty,
Seals it not, but waits awhile;
If the evil doer cry not
Sod forgive mel" ere he sleeps,
The sad, stern spirit seals it,
And the gentler spirit weeps.
To the sinner, if Repentance
Cometh soon, with healing wings,
Then the dark account is cancelled,
And each joyful angel sings;
Whilst the erring one perceiveth-
Now his troublous hour is DER
Music, fragrance waited to him
From a yet untrodden shore!
Mild and mighty is Forgiveness,
Meekly worn, if meekly won;
Let our hearts go forth 10 seek it
Ere the setting of the sun!
Angels wait and long TO hear us
Ask it ere the time be flown;
Let US give it and receive it,
Ere the midnight cometh down!
