Despise Not the Jews.

DeSpiSe Not the Jews
Roll back the broad waves of oblivion and stand,
As Of old, on the bosom Of Judeas land,
Where the jew conversed with their God
And behold, for the Gentle and stranger is there
And blasphemy floats upon the perfumed air.
For the curse of Jehovah is still resting there
While they scattered abroad.
Think ye the Almighty will His prophecies forget,
Whose with the dews of Heaven he has wet
And make all their prophecies lie9
All, no! for they are kneeng for eer in His sight,
And truth is shedding the faint rays of its light
Up through the dark vstas of long ages and night
Like a star from the depth of the sky.
Tho the unbelievers curse still clings to their race
Jacobs God will yet give them home and place,
Where they all may in peacefuness dwell;
For, the land they have left shall be everm6re theirs
And the stranger must leave them the wealth that he
bears,
And sweet flowers shall bloom where now blossoms
but tares,
And, Hosannas sLall fl oat Oh the swell.
The ships of Tarshish shall be ladened with fir,
With gold and fine linen, frankinsence and myrrh,
With diamonds, and the bright onyx-stone;
For the Temple of God shall be builded again,
And the earth bring forth fruit of flowers and gran
And the curse pass away a bright summer rain,
When Christ the Redeemer they shall own.
Both the harp and the mbrel shall join with the crowd
And the incense of praise ascend as a cloud,
And the sacrifice stand by the pyre;
While the earth shall be robed in the garbage of spring
For the king they refused shall come as King,
And the land of reproach with rejoicings shall ring
For the Lord will forgive them, his ire.
Then Jerusaem's walls shall be builded anew,
And the land be refreshed with rain and with dew,
Until it blooms did Aaron's rod
And thus, shall people were wont to despise,
Once more as a nation in their grandeur arise,
And the Cross geam brightly mid the blue of the Skies
Upon the stainless banner OF God.
In the minds of the people there shall be doubt
And the Courts will be ceansed within and without
And the Heather defle them no more;
And then for their sins, shall atonement be made
lamb without bleInsh the Altar be laid,
And peace-offerngs shall of the harvests be paid,
AS they were, to the Levites Of yore

THE NEEDFUL CoURAGE.-Whatever
you may be in rank, fortune, or abilities,
be not coward. Courage is the armor
of the heart, and the safeguard of all that
is good in this world. Not the valor that
faces the cannon, or braves the perils of
the wilderness and wave. That is a use
full quality, and much to be respected,
yet, only after its kind, as thing which
man may share with his dog. But
courage to speak the truth, though it be
out of favor and fashion; to stand by the
right when it is not on the winning side !;
to give the wrong its true names no mat
ter what johnson thinks, or Mrs. Stubs
will say-that is the bravery most want
ed in these days of profession and little
practice.
San Andreas independent., 1858-09-11

n@- 1t is vain to stick your finger In
the water, aud, pulling it out, look for a
hole; it is equally vain to suppose that
however large a space you occupy, the
world will miss you when you die.

Written for the San Andreas Independent
She Is Dead.
She went down to her rest, the soft star of love-
Gides down the western sky,
And the songs she lovd best the of the dove
And the winds meodious sigh;
And often there at night when the starets bright
Will music float round her tomb,
And the roses so white in their own virgin light
Shed DER her sweetest perfume.
Not flower e'er grew the sunny hillside
Fair as the we have laid,
Amid morns pearly dew, in its beauty and pride,
To sleep, meath the old elm's shade;
And often when on high DER the blue vauted sky,
The svery coudlets sweep,
And the breezes float by with song and sigh,
Bright spirits come there to weep.
Yet her image will cling round my heart till the thread
Of life is broken in twain,
Or memory can bring the bright dream that has fed,
From the land of shadows again;
And OH often L weep in my dream-broken sleep,
While my tears fall fast and warm,
For before will keep like star on the deep,
That fair beautiful form.

And none Of my bonnets suit my face
