BY HARRY HAZELwO0D.

But there are some hearts for whom
the charms of Nature have no plea
sure; some for whom her voice has no
cadences of joy--her beauty no power
to hasten the tagging pulses. How can
this glorious season speak rejoicingly
30 those over whose degraded brows
the free gales seem to breathe revilings
instead of peacefulness and high
thoughts, and for whose ears the gush
of melody seems only to syllable one
reproachful name : Gladness and beau
ty are not for the sympathies of the
wretched, and far better than the
brightness Of the vernal sunshine does
the drcariness of winter harmonize
with the desolate spirit Of the slave.
Oh, that the warm breathngs of
universal love might drive out from the
bosoms of men the cold, unfeeling win
ter of indifference, with which they
have SO long regarded the sufferings cf
their oppressed brethren that the
beautiful blossoms of Christian COM
passion and holy benevoience spring.
ing up in their hearts, might shed over
them the fragrance of the memory Of
good deeds Then should the bene-
diction of those that were ready to per-
ish, come upon them like "the early
and the latter rain," and the grateful!
tears OF the foglorn ones rest upon them
as fertiIizing dew, clothing them with
happiness like thick mantle OF sum
mer verdure.
