Purilanism.---A Couple Of IlIustra.
tiODS.

Hon. Il. S. Cox, in a late speech
on the war, gives the following illus.
trations OF New England Puritanism
The first is in your midst. Every
Sabbath you have sermon from DR..
| Cheever, hisses] demonstrating that
our failures in battle are owing to the
ldispleasure of God, because of the
tsin of slavery. (Cries of +" Ohr')
He makes slavery the terrible crime
of the world in his own fancy, and
reduces Omnipo.ence to the task of
Furnishing US by war for its exist
ence. He conveniently forgets that
there is another side 10 the battle,
and when We fil, God sides by his
foolish logic, with Shareholders. -
Laughter.)
Parallel with ibis logic, turn back
to l776, when Randolph came to
New England from the parent
Government. to find out the cause
of the Indian war. The answer
OF the Government of Massachusetts,
furnishes the commentary 1T |
officially declared that "these are
the great and provoking evils for
which God hath given the barbarous
heathen commission to rise against |
them. For men wearing long hair
and periwigs made of women's hair. |
Laughter. For women wearing
borders Of hair, and for cutting, curl
ing and laying out their hair, and dis
guising themselves by following
strange fashions in their apparel
Laughter For profanensss in the
people in not frequentlng the meet
ngs, and others in going away before
he blessing is eSpounded. Laugh
.er. For suffering the Q1akers to
lweIl among them, and to set up their
thresholds by Gods thresholds con-
rary to their old laws and resolu.
ions, with many such reasons
Thus it will he seen that the orig.
nal defects in the Puritan pattern
AVE been copied 10 the present day.
like The Chinese artist, when told
o copy a fine piece of porcelain 10
which some accident had happened,
le followed bis instructions with such
kill aud labor that he copied the
rack which extended the whole
sngth Of the model. [Laughter.l

The RAG BAG The rag bag
should become an institution in c,e-

Nothing would tend more to increase
its quantity and caeapen its price,
than the general institution Of the

all wasted material Of which either

Thurlow Weed, in late letter to
the Albany IN. " Evening Jour

In tie first year of the war our

read not the lesson it teaches care.

carried into effect, "with the consent
of the governed Since the Con.

been political revolution in four of

There are causes for such reaction.

Revolutionary Items.

On the 9th of October, I775, a
resolution was passed recommending
to the several provincial assemblies,
aud COMMITTEES of public safety, to
arrest and secure any person in their
respective colonies whose going ut
large, might, in their opinion, endan-
ger the safety of the colony or the
liberty Of America.
Ga the llth of January, i776,
Congress ordered that persons refus-
ing to receive the Continen ntal bills
in payment, or wno should obstruct
or discourage the circulation thereof,
should, on conviction, be deemed,
published and treated as an enemy
of the country, and be precluded frcm
all trade or intercourse with the in
habitant5 of the colonies.

WHAT I LOVE-,
INSCRIBED TO MISS MATTE w***

l love the fragrance of Springs earliest flowers
! l love the music of the wild birds song,
I love tke memory of those sunny hours
! That beam with beauty as they float along
love the Summer with its balmy air,
love to watch the stars ar early even
As shining forth above this scene of care
They point our wayward thought alOft to
Heaven.
| love to wander in the forests shade,
| love the sadness of an autumn day
Where Summers roses in the tomb are laid,
And flowers Ike dreams of beauty pass away.
l love the Wiater too, tho clad in snow
love the roar of its stormy blast,
love to hear the night wind sighing low,
love it,--it reminds me of the past
I love the changing seasons one and all
A joyous scene is each return to me,
The Springs first .aocer, the Snoscarop's early
fall
Each bring happy memory of THEE.
Thy smileis sweeter than Springs earliest
flower,
And sweetest music to thy voice is given;
And like the strs at Summers twilight hour,
Thine eyes reflect the light Of love from
Heaven
Those lashes long give forth such softened light
As Summers smiles to AutunaDs shades i'm
part,
lby brow is fair as Winters robe of snow,
A fitting symbol of tdy peerless heart!
