ANEsBURY, 7th, 9Th mo-, 1865.
TO the Editor Of the Friend: "
In late number of thy paper there Is a no.
tice Of a lecture by Henry Blanchard, of
Brooklyn, which doubtless unintentionally
gives a somewhat erroneous view OF my reli-
gious opinions. Painfully sensible of my own
moral infrmities and liabilities to error, L in
stinctively shrink from assuming the office of
teacher and guide OF others. Isimply wish to
say that my ground OF hope for myself and
for humanity Is in that Divine fitness OF love
which was manifested in the life, teachings
and self-sacrifice of Christ the Way, the
Truth and the Life. In the infinite mercy of
God SO revealed, and not in any work OF mer-
1t of our nature. reverently, ht1mbly, yet
very hopefully trust.
regard Christianity as life rather than a
creed; and in Judging of my fellow-men l can
use no other standard than that which our
Lord and Master has given us, "By their fruits
We shall know them" The only orthodoxy
that am specially interested in is that of life
and practice. On the awful and sublime
theme of human destiny, dare not dogmat-
ize; but wait the unfolding of the great mys-
terry in the firm faith that. whatever may be
our particular allotment, God will do the best
that is possible for all. Thy friend,

Poetry.
BY ALFRED rENNYsoN.


Nothing which the Laureate Of England
has written in his later days has surpassed, if
it has even equaled, in delicacy and beauty
some OF those crystal drops of song which we
find scattered among his early minor poems.
There is a haunting sweetness about some of
these which will not let the memory CO."
Take the following as an instance:
Flow down, cold rivulet, to the sea-
Thy tribute wave deliver;
No more by thee my steps shall be,
Forever and forever.
Flow, softly flow, by lawn and lea,
rivu.et, then q river;
Nowhere by thee my steps shallbe
Forever and forever.
But here will sigh thine ader-nee,
And here thine aspen shiveri
And here by thee will hum the bee
Forever and forever
A thousand suns will stream on thee,
A thousand moons will CULVER;
But not by thee my steps shall be
Forever anu forever.

THE OYSTER BUSINESS.

On the announcement OF the going into effect
of the Oyster tax law hereabouts, large num-
Der of Northern vessels, engaged i'll the bust
ness of carrying oysters away from our waters
to plant elsewhere, left for Maryland, it is said,
to obtain their supplies from the waters of that
Stats-the tax law here, they thought, being
rather too heavy for them. We now earn that
many of them have returned to our waters for
the purpose of getting a cargo; and, Of course,
paying their tax.
If this is really so, it is surely strong arsu-
ment in favor of the tax, and still stronger
argument in favor of employing large amount
of capital in the oyster packing business in this
city next season. There is 10 doubt it these
vessels could have obtained their oysters from
the Maryland waters on better terms, that they
would have done so and the fact that they
returned here after their milf was over, shows
that the Virginia oysters are what they want
and what their necessities will force them to
pay for-the oysters they get from this State
being better and cheaper, of course.
lgent enterprising capitalists attention to tie
splendid chances for investment in the oys-
ter packing business of this city. Leaving
our wharves every day, are some three or
four lines OF steamers for the North, forming
several daily lines between the waters Of Nir-
gnia and the great markets OF the North and
West, where oysters always bring a high price
and find ready SALE To Baltimore i'll II or
IA hours to New York in 20 or "a; and,
soon, to Philadelphia in Is or Is hours; and
from these points West in few hours more,
oysters Can be transported after being taken
fresh from the Virginia waters.
The oyster-packing business of Norfolk
no v has chance of employing from two to
three millions of dollars annually, with a fine
profit to the operators. And now is the time
to strike into it. Let those who design en-
barking, at once secure their painting beds,
and have the oysters gathered ready for them
against next season.
All along the Shores and up the creeks of
our noble Elizabeth, are planting beds
richer "placers" than the famous "placers OF
California or Eldorado-where oysters can at
once be caught from the rocks and planted
for the next season.
Most of these beds are but one or two miles
from the wharves OF our city, and many OF
them are not that far
We wish we had the statistics Of the oyster
packing business of Baltimore, Maryland, and
Fairhaven, Connecticut to exhibit to QUA
readers i'll this connection, to show them what
quantity of the oysters packed i'll those places
are obtained from the Virginia waters; and
what amount of wealth is yielded to those en-
gagged in the business there, that lcgitinattly
belongs to the people of our city, if t;.ey vii
only take hold of the business.
