The selffOrgetting leader bold

Fold him in rest, oh, pitying elimel
Give back his wasted strength againi
SoO,ha with thy endless summer time,
His winter wearied heart and brazil
Sing soft and low thy tropic Bird
From out the fragrant fiowery tree
The ear that hears thee now, has heard
The ice break of the winter sea-
Through his long watch of awful night
He saw the bear in Northern skies;
Now. to the Southern Gross of light
He lifts his hope, his weary eyes.

When the dark North no answer gave,

A Rea din z Koom...The Christian Assoei-
afiou.

The writer of the article 10 yesterday Dis'
patch. relative to a Reading Room, in when aiio
sjo was made to the plan of the Christian Asso
citation for sncb an establishment, had not read the
paragraph in the local column OF Monday paper,
represen:iog the scheme of the Christian Associa"
tion a. going ahead and soon to be in operation
When the writer had last heard of the plan there
was no certainty that it would be undertaken
ADD be saw a list Of papers said to be intended
10 be filed That list not on sufficiently
embarrassing scale for the object We conclu
ded that the idea was to economist in the list
in order to come down to the economical price
of subscription This much by way of explars-
ton
We are now Informed and are grafihed to
learn that the Reading Room-i e, the CONNER
cial and news department of it's about to be-
come one of the most complete in any city" We
are further informed, that the Association has
.'adoptsd and ia now putting into immediate e1e-
cution, the plan recommended by the merchants
of the city who themselves selected all the pa
pers they deemed important for the establishment
of a good Commercial" Reading Room. This ia
every way gratifying. Of course, the list here
alluded to is different one from that we saw
when the scheme was first projected. There will
be an addition of some thirty papers to those
heretofore taken, including the semi-weekly edi-
ton of the London Times, and the principal Liver
pool paper" The Association has for some time
past had on lis files daily papers from the pIiGci-
pal cities, and plumber Of periodicals
The Association has, besides some 1900 volumes,
well seec: ed and will probably soon have 1000 -
Their Lib: airy and Reading Rooms are well light
ed ard warmed, and pleasant, airy and central
convenient to the Banks, new Custom House, al d
Post Office. Workmen are now engaged in ma
king the niece ssary enlargement and arrangements
for the purpose of The Reading Room.
As to the subscription price, we are informed
that the Association is enabled to put it down low,
because it has already its Library and Reading
Rooms, and other conveniences, which would cost
any competitor 500 or $500, and to that extent it
hasthe advantage, and with the liberal aid it has
received from the merchants (some Of them, to
their praise be it spoken, having subscribed $40
aud $50 to a ,sist in the beginning) 1t is enabled
TO reduce the subscription to an unprecedented
low rate.
With these statements, we commend the enter.
prize of the Association. 1t has been delayed IN
til now, owing to extreme caution of the Executive
Committee mot to undertake it until they fel.
assured Of its success and permanerce." Any one
interested in the subject is invited 10 call and exs
anime, and Judge for himself
