TIE MISSING STEAMER PACIFIC.

"Mr. Collins received despatch yesterday afternoon
from in the America who familiar with the Col
Inns steamers stating that the Tuesday after leaving Lv

To strengthen the hope likely TO be derived from the
above make room for the following despatch which
received this afternoon from news agent at New

HOPE.
BY SCHILLER.

We speak with the lip and we dream in tho soul
Of some better and fairor day;
And our days the meanwhile, to that golden goal
Are gliding and sliding away.
Now tho world becomes old, and now again it is
young,
But " The Better forever the word on the
tongue.
AT the threshold Of life Hope leads us in
Hope plays around the mirthful boy
Though tAe best of its charms may with youth be-
gins,
Yet for age it reserves its toy.
When we sink at the grave, why the grave has
scope,
And over the coffin man p~lanteth-HoPE
And it is not q dream Of fancy proud.
With a fool for its dull begetter;
There's a voice at the bert that proelaims aloud,
I'VE are born for something better"
And that voice of the heart, oh We may believe,
Will never the hope of the soul deceive!

MORAL COURAGE.

Sydney Smith, in his work on moral philosophy,
speaks 10 this wise of what men lose for the want Of
a little moral courage, or independence Of mind 3
"a great deal of talent is lost to the world for
the want of a little courage. Every day sends to
their graves a number of obscure men who have
only remained in obscurity because their timidity
has prevented them from making effort and who,
if they could only have been induced to begin,
would in all probability have gone great lengths in
the career of fame. The fact is, that in order to dc
any thing in this world worth doing, we must not
stand back shivering, and thinking of the cold and
the danger, but jump in and scramble through as
we'll as we can. 1t will not do to he perpetually
calculating tasks, and adjusting nice chances il
did very well before the flood, when a man could
consult his friends upon an intended publication
for a hundred and fifty years, and then live to see
its success for six or seven centuries afterwards
but at present, a man waits and doubts and hest
tates and consults his brother, and his uncle, and
his first cousins, and his particular frier DIS, til, one
fne day he finds that he is sixty years of age-tha,
he has lost so much time in consulting his first
cousins and particular friends, that he has no more
time to follow their advice. There is such little
time for oversqueamishness at present, the oppor
tunity so easily slips aways, that the very period
Of his life at which a man chooses to venture. il
ever so confined, that it is a bad rule to preach mr.
the necessity in such instances of q little violence
done to the feelings, and efforts made in defiance
of strict and sober cultivation"

GERRIT SMITHS APPEAL TO A. BOY ON
TOBACCO.

MY DEAR GEORGE Il could have wept, the 9th.
.er day, when l saw you smoking a cigar. Only
fourteen years old, and already at work to poison
your body and poison your soul with tobacco
o, this is sad indeed? My dear boy, you see not
what is before you. If you did you would be
appalled, and you would fall on your knees,
and entreat your Heavenly Father to save you
from the w~asteful, filthy wicked practise of using
tobacco.
Do not excuse yourself by saying that some
great and good men use tobacco. The great and
good men who do so are in danger Of sinking into
very little and very wicked men, before they die.
Tobacco and Rum What twin brothers What
mighty agents of Satan !! What a large share of the
American people they are destroying l love my
children and because | love them, l had rather
bury them, than see them defle themselves with
rum or tobacco.
AS Paul said to Timothy, so say I to you
keep thyself pure" Be clean in your person,
and be clean in your heart. But, depend upou it,
you con be neither, if you use tobacco.
Your Friend,
GERRIT SMITH.

How swestly falls the mild and mellow ray
Upon the woods of gray,
And heralds unto them the opening year,
And also to the fields and meadows sere,
Saying. in tones subdued these words Of cheer,
THE sullen winter has fed quite away"
There is an under.meaning runs through all

Melts into golden rain the cloudy pail
And bids the frozen streams again to run;
And from the soul the shadows dark shall

The following song is extracted from n volume
of poems by Hartley Coleridge, published at Leeds
in 1888:
IT'S sweet to hear the merry lark,
That bids a blithc good morrow;
But sweeter to bark in the twinkling dark
To the soothing song of sorrow.
o, nightingale what doth thee all?
And is she sad or jollyi
For ne'cr on earth was sound of m,rth
So like to melancholy.
The merry lark, he scars on high,
No worldly thought o'ertakcs him:
He sings aloud to the clear blue sky
And the daylight that awakes him.
As sweet a lay, as loud, as gay,
The nightingale is triiling,
With feeling Bliss, no less than his,
Her little heart is thrilling.
Yet ever and anon a sigh
Peers through her lavish mirth
For the lark's bold song is Of the sky
And hers is of the earth.
And the night and day she tunes her lay
To drive away all sorrow;
For bliss, alas to night must pass,
And woe may come tomorrow
To this sweet song Hartley CUleridge has append
ed the following note:
Among the controversies Of the day not the Teas
