'Tis the realm Of Peace our Savior made -
Where the blight of death can meier invade,
Where the storms ssall meier shade the sky,
And those cherished ones shall never die.

To world OF grief and q life of pain!

From the land Of icye and the Sayior's breast.

HoMELEss Children WESTWARD Ho
The Western States continue to receive
and welcome the large increase to their jul
.veniIe population which issues from the
Children's Aid Society without intermis-
sion. 1t would be impossible to calculate
the large amount Of good achieved for the
community by this Society. since il com
menced operations eight years ago. Thou
sands Of poor children, who would other
wise be castaways on the corrupt stream Of
street life in this large city, homeless and
without resource, are now, through the ac-
tive labors Of this Institution, growing up
to be good men and women, in excellent
houses in the West, attending school, and
practicing the social and moral daties that
elevate nature. Mr. IL. Friedgef, who has
already located several hundred Of these
children in Indiana. left New York yester-
day afternoon, with a company Of over 40
boys and girls. 1t is becoming a remark
able feature of this migration that the news
boys from the lodging house, No. rs Full
ton street, form a large and interesting por-
ton Of it. The party Of yesterday had
several fine lads from this institution in its
vanguard. All were well dressed, in good
spirits, and anticirative Of the "good time
coming" in the prosperous West.--N X.

The subjoined extract from 1'hackeray
Lecture on George IL. Of England serves
to show that Wesley and i Wbtefield
were needed at that period of civil and
ecclesiastical decadence:
"As peep into George lis St. James
/ see crowds of cassocks rustling up the
back stairs of the ladies Of the Court; steal
thy olergy slipping purses into their laps
that goddess King yawning under bis eano-
|py in his chapel royal as tho chaplain be-
fore him is discoursing. Discoursing about
what? About righteousness and judgment.
While the chaplain is preaching the King
is chattering in German almost az loud a
the preacher; SO loud that the clergyman
lit may be one Dir. Young, he who wrote
Night Thoughts and discoursed on the
splendor Of the stars, the glories Of heaven,
and utter yanities of this world actually
burst out crying in his pulpit because the
defender of the faith and dispenser of bish-
oprics would not listen to him. No won
der that the clergy were corrupt and indif-
ferent amidst this Indifference and corrup-
ton. No wonder that skeptics multiplied
and morals degenerated. No wonder that
Whiteiield cried out in the wilderness, that
Wesley quilted the insulted temple to pray
on the hillside. ! look with reverence on
those men at that time. Which is the sub
Inner spectacle the good John Wesley, sur
rounded by his congregation Of miners at
the pits mouth, or the Queens chaplains
through their morning Office in
their anti-roonl, under the picture Of the
great Venus, with the door opened into
the adjoining chamber, where the Queen IS
dressing, talking scandal to Lord Heryey,
or uttering sneers at Lady Suffolk, who is
kneeling with the basin at her mistress's
side? | say | am scared as | look round
at this society, at this King, at these cour-
tiers, at these politicians, at these bishops,
at this Haunting vice and leyity. Where
abouts ia this Court is the honest man.
Where is the pnre person one may ike
The air STILES one with its sickly perfumes.
There are some oId-world follies and some
absurd ceremonials about our Court Of the
tday which laugh at; but as an
contrasting it with the past
shall | not acknowledge the change Of to-
day. As the mistress Of st. James passes
me now | salute the sovereign, wise, mod
crate, exemplary Of life; the good mother,
the good wife, the accomplished lad,, the
friend Of art, the tender SYM
pathizer in her peoples glories and sorrows."

CnAs. HApp, ESQ Dear Sir,-You
arc an entire stranger 10 me, and direct me
to no one from whom can learn your true
character, and responsibility. This if no
other difficulty existed, would seriously EN-
barrass me in making a favorable answer
to your proposition. You should have at
least given me one respectable Reference
The fact that you have not done so, With
other circumstances connected with your
letter, makes it quite doubtful whether
could honorably acceed to yourpiopo position.
You date from Auburn, and tell me TO d.
rect to you at Auburn, but you do not
name the street. Pardon me for regard
ing this as a suspicious Circumstance, You
may be an inmate Of the State Prlson--os
on your way there-a fact which YOU see
would interfere with the fulfilment of your
part Of the proposed bargain, even if cod
fulfill the part you assign me. You want
fifteen or twenty thousand dollars. This is
a common want, and you are not to blame
for using all honorable means to obtain it.
But candor requires me to state, that if
you were in every respect q suitable person
to be bought, for the purpose You name. /
have not the amount required TO buy you.
| have no objection to your complexion,
but there are certain little faults of gram
mar and spelling, as well as other points,
in your letter, which compel me to regard
you as person, ~ education, manners and
morals, as wholly unfit to associate with my
daughter in any capacity whatever. You
evidently think your whites skin Of great val
ue. | don't dispute it; il is probably the
best thing about you. Yet not even that
quality can commend yoL sufficient
" to induce even so black a negro as my
self to accept you MS his son-in-law.
Respectfully,
