The human heart, the human hearti
How strange the songit sings. f'f 3
Asbusy unseen fingers sweep fl|
y Across the trembling strings. #
What pleasant music Memory makes.
- In cadence soft and low,
As o'er the many strings she plays
The songs oflong ago. '3
And when loves fingers touch the chord.
And sweet the song it sings:
Oil to the faint and weary heart
What melody she brings.
Bnt ali; when grief's cold fingers sweep
So sadly softly DER,
1t seems that happiness can dwell ..
Within that heart no more.
Then hope comes gently lowering Ger.
And pointing to the sky,
She whispers through the trembling strings
You'll meet again on high
But ifthose trembling chords ara broke,
How sad the bell it to Is;
Its funeral notes 60 surging through
The chambers of the soul.
And through the silent hours Of night
Grim phantoms come and 60;
And chant with low and solemn notes
Their messages of woe.
Bnt o.! when faiths soft fingers glide
Across its many strings, ...,
1t teaches it the beauteous song
The song an angel sings.
And peace, whose form is ever near,
Catches the joyful strain;
And with her sweet, melodious voice.
Echoes it DER again.

,oNlPN PRAYEE MEEriNG-NY Washington Hall
Was again filed yesterday evening by persons
OF all denominations, as well as persons of no
denominations. There was perceptible ill.,
crease of interest manifested, and judging from
the prospect, we should say that the awaken
ing IN this city is taking the SAME enthusiastic
hue which has characterized it in other Cities
The exercises Of the meeting were lead by Rev.
Messrs. Dodge, Perkins and others-clergy and
layman-and were listened to with marked at
tention.
After an hour spent in the usual variety of
devotional exercises, Rev. Mr.. Dodge read the
rules which had been agreed upon for the gov
eminent of these meetings.
They are as follows:
LIST. The Prayer Meeting shall be managed
by committee of Laymen, composed Of one
member from each of the CITY churches con.
senting with and uniting in the movement.
End. The meeting will be conducted by a
leader, selected from among the clergy, luity
by the committee of arrangement, and new
leader will be chosen for each evening.
3td. The exercises recommended, are mainly
devotional singing and prayer. The leader,
however, is expected to invite and permit eXhor-
tations and remarks from senior persons, when
in his Judgment it will add to the interest and
profit of the meeting.
4th. 1t is recommended that the prayers and
remarks, be concise and pointed and that not
more than two OF three verses of hymn be
sung each time.
9th. 1t is further recommended, that the con-
gregation stand during the singing of the first
hymn and doXOlogy, and that the others hymns
be sung the congregation keeping their seats:
the attitude in prayer to be as conscience may
dictate.
