And bristly hair the children risei
These must be dress'd and dos'd with rue,
And fed-and all because you.

And stole off grumbling to his bed;
And only said as on she run,

When Darby thus-"rll end the strife,

Old Darby rose and seiz'd the broom,
And Whirld the dirt about the room;

When turning round, in sad amaze,
He saw his cottage in blaze
For as he chanc'd to brush the room
In careless haste he fred the broom.
The fire at last subdu'd, he swore
Ths broom and he should meet no more,
Pressd by misfortune and perpleNd,
Darby prepared for breakfast next;
But what TO get he scarcely knew
The bread was spent, the butter too,
His hands bedaubd with paste anu flour,
Old Darby labor'd full an hour;
But. luckless wight thou couldst not make

Tho slipp'ry cream betrayed his feet;
He caught the bread trough in his fall
And down came Darby, trough and all.

METHODISTS IN THE FIELD.

The Methedists citizens Of the
State of New York held q Convcn-
ton, last week, at Syracuse. 1t en-
braced ministers and laymen, was
powerful in numbers, and in the
moral worth and personal influence
of the members. DIR. Peck, Of All
bany, was President. He also in
troduced from the Business Com
mittee the propositions which were
discussed and adopted, as the prin-
ciples set up and published as the
grand objects for which they will
labor.
We see in this action and posi-
ton of the Methodist citizens the
demonstration we kaye long de-
sired to see made by the whole
Christian community. The RO-
man Catholics were organized by
Bishop Hughes into a political par
ty. He said to his followers, sub
stantialIy, such words as these;
"Your first and most sacred OBJ
legation and duty is to advance the
isterests of your Church your du-
ty to the State is secondary. AS
citizens of the country you possess
the right Of sufrage, and by your
numbers, holding the balance Of
power between the contending po-
litical parties, you are bound by
your most sacred relations to ex
ert the power and influence which
that position gives to you, in such
manner as will best and most ef-
fectually advance the interest of
your Church. That you can do
by giving your votes to whatever
political party will do the most for
you"
We do not wish to see Protest
ant Christians taking sucR posi-
ton as Bishop Hughes made his
followers take, and as they hold
now. But we wish to see all good
men arrayed on the side Of NOR
ais in politics, morals in legisla-
tion, morals in administration OF
Justice, and against all sectarian
legislation, and drunkenness, all
Sabbath desecration. We would
have the combinations of Roman
sm and Infdelity met by the com
omed action of all good men. And
his Methodist movement is in the
light direction. 1t is the begin
hing of a peaceful revolution, and (
We advise all politicians who are (
,ounting on the votes of Roman {
to pay for their support !
n the Legislature, to heed the warn +
ng that comes from Syracuse in t
be following paper: |
Under the heading of "Our Po-
ition,7 the feportholds as follows t
First-We propose to speak and $

american citizens, Is
Second-We ask no peculiar 0
