For the Spirit of the Age.
ROSES.

Roses how beautiful they are. Fairest
and freshest of all earthly flowers. One of
heavens brightest gifts to the children of
earth. How delicate is their soft perfume as
II the angels above had stopped down and
breathed their ethereal breath upon them
And how it steals into our inmost souls when
they are weary with earth's cares, and soothes
the worn and tired chords, bringing in
thoughts of heaven and heavenly purity, I'M
til our WEAKNESS is charmed away and for
gotten. It's praises have been sung in sweet
and graceful strains by gifted poets, and ar
lists endeavored to portray its beauty, as it
bushes and glOws, every leaf quivering in
rosy light, but in vain. II is beyond human
power to express or paint its exquisite love-
illness.
We know not when they are most beauti-
ful, shining in the morning dew, or in celes-
tial fairness drinking in the pale beams of
the stars. : Roses precious roses! What
is the spell that fingers in your depths to
call the smile to the pale cheek of the maiden
as dropping with fatigue she leans over her
task How light beams into the feeble eyes
of the sick child, as he clutches the velvet
leaves with his white tiny fingers. There is
a SPELL of loneliness ever round ye! Woven
in the brown tresses of the maiden in the
halls of gayety, or lying softly breathing out
perfume upon the bosom of the silent corpse
Climbing in the window or nesting in the
green grass on the hillside-ever lovely
ever beautiful. ESTELLE.

PSALMS OF DAvID.-The following eloquent
extract is from a late letter by Henry Giles,
the Psalms of David:
''Great has been their power in the world.
They resounded amid the court of the taber-
nacle; they hoated through the lofty and
solemn space of the temple. They were sung
with glory in the Halls of Zion; they were
sung with sorrow by the streams of Babel
And when Israel had passed away, the harp
of David was still awakened in the Church
of Christ. In all the eras and ages of that
Church, from the hymn which it first whis-
period in an upper chamber until its anthems
filled the earth, the inspiration of the royal
prophet has enraptured its devotions and en-
nobled its rituals. Chorused by the winds
of heaven, they have swelled throughout
Gods own universe on the sky and stars; they
have rolled over the broad desert OF Asia, in the
mathis and vespers of ten thousand hermits
They have rung through the deep valleys o
the Alps, in the sobbing voices of the forlorr
Waldenses, through the deeps and caves o
the Scottish Highlands, in the rude chantin,
Of the Scottish Covenanters through tn
woods and wilds of primitive America, in tn
heroic hallelujahs of princely pilgrims"

'MY SISTER MARGARET" Il Temperance Sto-
ry, by Mrs. c. NJ. EDwARDs-four ~illustra-

This work we do most heartily commend
to every family circle in the land. Every
member of the family ought to read 1.-THE
father and mother, SO as to be admonished;
the daughter, so as to contrast the difference
between a true-hearted, courageous girl, and
one who bows submissively to baleful fashion
and custom and the son, so as to learn to
'beware" of the insidious cup that carries
desolation as a whirlwind into the family cir
Gle, destroying all hat is lovely and of good
report.
The book is a simple, beautifully written
history of a family-reaching from a venera-
ted grandfather down to sons and grandsons
and daughters-and of the doings of the wine
cup and brandy decanter in each successive
generation. OF the fearful lessons conveyed.
Nothing overdrawn, but Astounding with
