THE BONDMAN'S APPEAL.

Am not man and brother,
And Is ours not kindred blood
Should we not then love each other,
seek each Others greatest good
God who fixed all true relations,
Gave TO time and nature birth,
OF one blood made all the nations,
Peopiing thus the teenling Garth.
Earth appears--one common mother
Clothed in robes of living green;
As kind providing father,
God in all Is clearly seen.
Us as children nought should sever,
While we tread this earthly clod
All should live in peace-none ever
kaise oppression's cruel rod.
Did not God create my spirit,
Form my body with His hand,
Nav not at length inherit
With the good, better land,
And did not the worlds Redeemer
Leave His blissful, high abode,
Labor, suffer, life surrender,
Pay my ransom price with blood,
Why, then, on my feet these fetters,
Why this sorrow in my soul,
Equa' claiming to be betters,
Every wish and act control7
Do you find my native covering.
Guilty Of sable stain,
God, as pleased Him, gave the coloriny.
Man has forged the CALLING chain
is il right to bind brother,
If he wear a darker hue
Then If whittier still, another
fastens fast the chain on YOU,
Unrequited toll demanding,
Do you claim because Of might
Then TO stronger ones commanding
Masters all are slaves by right,
Il IN hfe's bright morn, when bameless,
was from home and kindred torn;
And to tasks and tortures nameless
Ger the bounding billows borne.
Long I've suffered untold anguish.
fain would consolation find;
But Ia hopeless bondage languish
Midnight darkness on my mind.
Morn awakes in me no gladness,
Doomed to toll the liye-lonR ,iay:
And at eve in grief and sadness,
Weep the lonely hours away.
When 70 tasks by tyrants driven,
on nv back the lash has torn;
And with heart by torture riven,
l have taunts and insults borne.
Dearest kindred from me parted,
We're away by monsters borne;
Lonely, sad, I'm broken hearted
Scorned, unpitied and forlorn.
Beats my heart, with fond affection.
For those dear as life TO me;
But wall in deep detection,
Them no more on earth see.
Did not God create all nature?
Make all beings free as air!
May not man the noblest creature.
With all others freedom sharel
Must ] groan in hopeless thraldom,
While draw this vital breath
Give me Heavens boon Of Freedom,
Give me liberty or death.
Cries of blood 10 Heaven ascending.
From our fair, our boasted land.
Call for vengeance, loud demanding,
Justice at Jehovah's hand
Long divine compassion waiteth,
For repentance giving room;
But when judgement justly falleth,
Fearful, final is the DOOM
Truths we find so clear, they never
Can be themes of doubtful strife
Claims to happiness for ever,
Rights TO liberty and life:
These are from the God Of nations,
Ruling with unbounded sway;
Human codes and constitutions.
Cannot take those rights away.
Then throughout the wide creation,
Wake the final Jubilee;
From all cruel legislation.
Set the suff ring bondman free.
Let sires, sons--let mothers, daughters,
Loud the joyful sound proclaim;
Lift one voice, like mighty waters,
In one long and loud acclaim!

LORDS PRAYER.-The following para.
phrase of the Lords Prayer has been sci
to music in England, and is having great
run. 1t is the best we have ever seen in
any language-there is nothing wanting
and nothing redundant -
Our Heavenly Father, hear prayer;
Thy name be haowed every where
Thy kingdom come Thy perfect will
In earth, Heaven let us fulfill;
Give this days bread that may live
Forgive our sins as we forgive;
Help us temptation to Withstand,
From evil shield us by Thy iiand
Now and forever unto Thee,
The kingdom, power and glory be-
Amen

THRILLING INCIDENT.

4 In a lecture recently delivered by
"Grace Greenwood at Boston, on "He.
roism,p she referred to an incident that
took place OF the burning Of steamer on
one of the Western lakes: @s5r5
q Among the few passengers whose
courage and presence Of mind rose supe-
rior TO the perils aud horrors Of the night
was a mother who succeeded in saving
her two children by means of a floating
settec.: While they were in the water,
themother saw n man swimming toward
the Settee, and as lie was about to grasp
10 she cried - g Don't take II away from
my poor little childrenl' He made no
answer, yet the npptal struck home; for,
by the light Of the flaming vessel, she
could see that his face was conrulsei by
the struggle between the mighty primal
instinct or nature and something better
and holieT. II was but for q moment.
He threw up his hands with a groan Of
PRONUNCIATION, dpu9 himself over backward,
and went down. ..jsss5:
