Gods Works.

Ths contemplation of Coils work, az
fords an unfailing source of pleasure. The
more we investigate this field, the more
we see to admire. God is seen in his
works everywhere in the flower, the forest,
the stream, the fountain, and the varicga
ted landscape. He is seen in the breeze, in
the shower, in the varieties of the seasons,

The Dark Lantern.

The Secretary of the Kentucky Amer
lean Council, BLANToS DUNCAN, has ad-
dressed very pathetical appeal to the
Know Nothings of the country. He fears
that the Grand National Convention at
Louisville on the I'd Of June is destined to
be failure, and he believes 'that failure
in the present crisis would be disastrous in
the extreme" What the present crisis il
about, Mr.. DrScAN does not explain, but

bright redeeming oasis of Americanism,
amidst the arid wastes of Black Republi-
canism and foreign Democracy" and in

bloody ground and receive the hospitaIities

Convention in the city where the hatici

ly eliminated in rioting and murder; but
it exhibits singular moral condition in
Secretary DCNcAS, to boast of such cx.
ploits and glorify Louisville as an oasis of
Americanism.
