Who of our readers has not admired the
beautiful hymn besinning with this stanza?
ION { 20 SlCtRI q " I4AAD q "
From every cumbering care,


From every cumbering care,
And spend the hours of setting day.
In humble, grateful prayer"
The Religious Herald gives the following as
the circumstances under which it was written,
and We think the narration lends touching in
terest to the familiar hymn:
Its author, Mrs. Phoebe H. Brown, was an
intelligent, pious woman who labored industri-
ously to support a large family of children. She
was won't after the tolls Of the day were over,
at the quiet twilight hour, to ramble to neigh
boring grove, where, alone and unobserved, she
might spend an hour in meditation and pray
er.
A wealthy lady, who lived near Mrs. Brown,
seeing her go often TO this retreat, without
knowing her object, censured her severely, in
the presence of other persons, for her ''ramble,
and told her ''she had better stay at home with
her children Mortified at being charged with
negsctlng her family, and deeply wounded that
her retirement for communion with God had
excited evil surmises Mrs. Brown remained at
home that evening" and with her babe on her
knee, wrote her Apology for my Night Ram
bles." friend found this beautiful gem "a
mong her manuscripts and sent it to Dr. Nettle-
ton, who inserted it in a collection ofhymns he
was preparing. Mrs. Brown was doubtless sue
cessful in bringing up her children in the nurt.
ure and admonitlon Of the Lord, as one of them
was the first American missionary to Japan.

Taxation

''The Radials claim says the Richmond
of the poor man, but to pay an enormous inter-
est in gold to few wealthy bondholders, they
tax the laboring man more heavily than in any
other nation under the sun.
They tax the cradle in which he is laid at
birth, the swaddling clothes in which he is
wrapped, and the Doctor who offciates on that
important occasion. They tax the match which
lights the taxed oil in the taxed lamp, that his
mother may see when he has the collie, how to
give him his taxed paregoric from a taxed
head, the shoes on his feet, the clothes he
wears, the food he eats from taxed dishes, the
tea and coffee he drinks from a taxed cup, the
sugar which sweetens it, and the pot in which
it is cooked upon a taxed fire In taxed stove.
1t taxes the tools OF his farm and his trade,
and the labor Of the muscles that WELD them; !;
the pen writes with taxed ink upon taxed pa
per; the books and papers which he reads, the
chair he sits in, the bed he sleeps on, the blank
cts which he sleeps under, and every article of
furniture III MS taxed mouse. LII taxes Cnc Dccr
ale and spirits which he drinks, the tobacco
which fills his taxed pipe; when be is sick he
takes taxed medicine from taxed vial, and
when he dies is wrapped in taxed shroud and
buried in taxed coffin.
In comparison with such state of affairs
Sidney Smith S celebrated sketch of English
taxation is mere bagatelle, aad yet the party
which is doing all this, and which has in four
years of profound peace increased the national
debt, despite the lmmen-e revenues, hundreds
of millions II dollars, still has the effronery to
prate of economy and to profess to be the special
defender Of the noor man rights and interests.
Surely the force Of brazen impudence could go
no further.
In this connection we introduce the following
from the Petersburg Index:
Mr.. EDITOR: Having read in the National
Mteiiqencer week or two since, list of articles
taxed as spoken OF by working man of Staun-
ton, Virginia thought it might not be aniss
to add to the list aud throw the whole into

per. Respectfully, a.

In BRIEF.-We see in yesterdays Boise
City Statesman long communication signed
by one T. j. Sutton, who is, we believe, can
didate on the Sorehead ticket, charging us with
having been Know Nothing a member of the
San Francisco Vigilance Committee, bolter
and deserter. of the Democratic party in Ore
gon. We will here simply say that T. J Sut-
ton, or whoever else states that we ever had
affinity with, or supported, or belonged to
the Know Nothing party or to the San Fran
cisco or any other Vigilance Committee, is an
infamous liar; nor did we ever bolt or desert
the Democratic party in Oregon or elsewhere.
This is all, now, of this matter In next Sat

THE "RELIGIoN" OF RADICAL.-The
Rev. Francis S. Abbot, a shining light in the
Abolition religion of New England, in SER
mon recently published in the Liberal Chris
tian, says:
Religion has more to do with Jesus than il
has with Judas. 1t leaves the soul alone with God
1t acknowledges no leader is loyal to no master: i'm
itates no example; looks to no Redeemer; needs nc
Saviour knows no Christ
This, says the N. Y. Day Book, is certainly
the best statement of the religion of the God
and-mOrality party we have seen. The rascals
have at last reached the sublime pitch longed
for by Anson Burlngamc, now n Chinese but
formerly member of Congress from Massa-
chusetts when he declared: "We want an
anti-slavery Bible and an anti slavery God y
Now they have both-a negro Bible and ne

A MATTER OF DENIAL.-Mr. John German

and himself, for the payment to him Of $4,000
for his personal services in the canvas, in be-
half of the Peoples ticket" i'll the event that
John S. Gray shall be elected Sheriff of this
county at the ensuing election, was not copy
of any genuine agreement concerning him. Mr..
German declared to us that it was not true
that he had made any such agreement. We
cheerfully give him the benefit of his denial
Of course, we know nothing, personally, of the
matter in issue. The thing was shown to US.
and, as we should have done in any other SIM
liar case, we gave it for what it was worth.
Mr.. German positively declared to rs, yester-
day, It did him much injustice, and we willing
ly give him the benefit of his declaration.
