FUTUnR LIFE.
VIZ. CULLEN BRYANT.


How shall know thee in the sphere which
kaaua
The diSsmbOdied spirits Of the dead,
When all Of thee that time could Wither sleeps
And perishss among the dust we treaot
For shall feel the sting of ceAseless PAIN
If there l meet thy gentle spirit not;
Nor hear the voice love, not read again
In thy sersnest eyes and tender thought
viii not thy own meek heart demand me
Ihere2
That heart whose fOndeSt throb to me was
giVsn2 ~
Ny name on earth was ever in thy prayer
And wilt thou never utter 1t in heAVenf
In meadows famed by heavens life breath
In the dependence of that glorious sphere,
And larger movements of the unfettered
mipd,
wilt thou forget the love that Joined MS
here2
The love that lived through all the stormy
And meekIy with my harsher nature bore,
Ald deeper grew the tenoereE 70 Ino
Shall it expire with life and be moreg
A happier lot than mine, and larger light
Await thee there, for thou hast bowed thy
will
In cheerful homage to the rule of right,
And lowest all and renderest good for i'll.
For me the sordid cares in which dwell,
Shrink and consume my heart as heat and
scroll,
And wrath had left its scar-that FIRE of hell
Has left its frightful scar upon my soul
Yet though thou wear'st the glory OF the sky,
Wilt thou not keep the same beloved name,
The same fair thoughtful brow, and gentle
eye,
LoVlier in heavens sweet climate, yet the
Shalt thou not teach me in that calmsr home,
The wisdom that learned so i'll in this
The wisdom which is love-till become
Thy fit companion in that land Of bliss?

The Rnntisr ChnrnI,.

The audience chamber of the remoddled
Baptist Church is now so far finished as to be
occupied for Divine service This build
ing is an ornament to Austin, situated in
commanding locality and overlooking the
business portion of the city. The building
itself is of stone, size Al by 7s feet. In the
front IS large marble slab on which is in
scribed, in bold letters, Baptist Church,
1856" From the entrance hall you ascend
to the sudiauce chamber by two flights OF
eighteen broad steps, one on each side. The
audience chamber is As feet ia width, 81 feet
long and ls feet in highth, and well lighted
by twelve large windows that come nearly to
the floor, rendering the room cool and pleas
ant. The gallery is not completely finished
owing to want of the necessary funds, and
is consequently closed temporarily. This is
to be regretted as it would add much to the
attractiveness of the church. There is a
large basement to the building, in which SER
vices have heretofore been held, but which
is not yet finished
Messrs. jackson l. Johnson had the con-
tract for the woodwork, and they have per-
formed their work with credit to themselves
and the society. The plsstering was done
by Mr.. Moody, but as the finishing coat is
not to go on at present, his work does not
show to as good advantage as it would had
be been permitted to complete it. The paint.
ing was done under the immediate superin-
tendency of Mr., Robert Smith, and is well
executed.
We trust immediate and strenuous efforts
will be made to com plete the building and
furnish it in an appropriate manner.

Love of the Beautiful.

Place young girl under the care
of a kind hearted, graceful woman,
and she, unconsciously to herself,
grows to a graceful lady. Place a
boy in the establishment of a thor
ougb>going, straightforward bust
ness man and he becomes self-re~
liant, practical business man. Chill
dren are susceptible creatures, and
circumstances, and scenes, and ac-
tons always impress, as you infu-
ence them, not by arbitrary rules,
nor by stern examples alone, but in
a thousand other ways that speak
through beautiful forms, pretty pic.
lures, etc., so they will grow.
Teach your children then to love
the beautiful. Give them a corner
in the garden for flowers; encourage
them to put it in the shape of hang
ing baskets; allow them to have their
faVorite trees; teach them to wan
der in the prettiest woodlands; show
them where they can best view the
sunset; rouse them in the morning,
not with stern slime to work." but
with the enthusiastic "see the beau
tiful SUNRISE" buy for them pretty
pictures; and encourage them to dec.
crate their rooms in his or her child
ish way; give them an inch, and they
will go mile; allow them a privilege
and they will make your home beau
tiful.

of the Waco Examiner. Mr.. Alex
ander is clear and forcible speak
er and is striking heavy blows at
Radical corruption, both through
his excellent paper and upon the
stump.
On the 18th inst. there were more
than one thousand people assembled
at White Rock Church, twelve miles
from Waco. DIR. Thos. Moore, John
c. West Esq, W. NJ. Flomnoy, and
Lem. c. Alexander, addressed the
meeting and the entire day was de-
voted in discussing the dangers of
the times. Giddings' stock is high,
and Clark seems to be nowhere with
the independent thinking people.

10 Tuesday g Journal, in the columns of the
local editor, is an article upon political ser
mons" presume the reference is to myself.
l regret to have to be called into the news
papers on such subject. For sometime
have had it under consideration to preach a
series of sermons upon the commandments.
On Sunday before last fused as text, "Thou
shalt not steal )" and 1 urged the duty OF
honesty as q universal obligation. Last Sab
bath my text was "Thou shalt not bear false
witness against thy neighbour" and the sin
of lying was denounced with zeal and ear
nestness-and truthfulness was urged as q
universal obligation.
1t did not occur to me that the members of
the Legislature elected by a majority of the
people had repealed these commandments
otherwise the sermons might not have been
preached lam not Of that class of minis
tiers who rms down the bridge that carries
them over safely, and l can assure you that
knowing Where my bread and butter comes
from, I will hereafter try to avoid such texts
as those referred to above and that so seri-
ously interfere with the party legislation and
habits Of the party in power. With many
regrets, am yours in gospel bonds,
HORACE HODGES.

Home. sweet Home

1t is a singular and noteworthy
fact that although the song Of
"HOme, Sweet Home" has attained
a worldwide popularity, and con-
tains, exclusive of the chorus, but
eight lines, it is rarely printed cor
rectly. In reading book for schools
published in the city of New York a
copy of this song, attached to a
brief sketch of its author, is marred
by no less than fourteen errors.
The, following is literal copy from
the authors own manuscript:
Mid pleasures and palaces though we may
roam,
Be it ever SO humble, there's no place like
Homel
A charm from tho sky seems 10 hallow us
there,
Which, seek through the world, is meier met
with elsewherel
Home, Homei sweet, sweet Homel
There's no place like Home!
There's no place like Home!
An exile from Home, splendor dazzles in
Vain!-
U, give me my loWly matched cottage ag ainI
The birds singing gayly that came at my
call
Give me them!-and the peace of miad dear
er than ALL
Home, Hemel sweet, sweet Home
There's no place like Home!
There's no place like Homei
To forget the wrongs you suffer, is
to remedy them.
The mailman thinks the rest of the
world crazy.
Any one can hold the helm when
the sea is calm.
Haste is a crime when the iudg
ment is celebrating.
When the world hates you see hat
i t have no good reason therefor
Gold is tried by fire, fOrtitude by
affection.
KNOXVILLE has an educated mon
key. She is lucky to have but one.

When you see fellow mortal
without fired and fearless views,
Hanging on the skirts of others,
Walking in their cast of shoes,
Bowling low to wealth or favor,
With ahject, uncovered head,
Ready 70 retraet or WaVer,
Willing to be drove or led; eEl
Walk yourself with firmer bearing,
Throw your moral shoulders back,
Show your spine has nerve and marrow
just the things which his must lack.
A stronger word
Was never heard
In sense and tone,
Than this, backbone.
When you see q theologian
Hugging close some ugly creed,
Fearing to reject or question
Dognas which his priest may read,
Holding back all noble feeling,
Choking down each manly view,
Caring more for forms and symbols
Than to know the good and true;
Walk yourself With frmsr bearing,
Throw your moral shoulders back,
Show your spine has nerve and marrow
just the thing which his must lack.
Is. iI A stronger word
Was never heard
In sense and tone,
Than this, backbone.
When you see politician
Crawling through contracted holes,
Begging for some fat position,
In the ring or at the polls,
With no sterling manhood in him,
Nothing stable, broad or sound,
Destitute of pluck or ballast,
Double sided all around;
Walk yourself with firmer bearing,
!. Throw your moral shoulders back,
Show your spine has nerve and marrow
Just the things which his must lack.
A stronger word
e. {. Was never heard
In sense and tone,
Than this, backbone.
A modest song and plainly told
The text is worth mine of gold
For many men most sadly lack
A noble stiffness in the back.
