The Government of England will
shortly be asked to grant a charter
to u large and influential company of
Englishmen, empowering them to
hold, occupy, and use vast tracts of
land on the west coast of Africa
The movement will be modeledupon
the old East India Company, and the
arguments for its necessity are sup
ported by the fact that the present
system of trading in that region
means very little more than selling
rum and tobacco to the natives and
encouraging them to keep up the
present disjointod system of rule in
in West Africa, can not reach and
correct the evils complained of by
civilized nations, But agreat organ
lied company, it is claimed, like that
which ruled India, could and would
do what the home government il
powerloss to do.

A Terrible apprehension.

An infdel said, "There is only one
thing that mars all the pleasure of
my whole life"
Indeed" replied his friend, what
is that?"
He answered, a am afraid the BIZ
Bile is true"
fl could only know for certain
that death is an eternal sleep, | could
be happy. My joy would be COM
plctel But here is the thorn that
stings me, this is the sword that
pierces my soul-if the Bible is true
| am lost, and lost forever
That is indeed well grounded
apprehension. The Bible is true
tremendously true, and, however
boastful infdelity may be, however
brazen its countenance, there is an
inward trembling which disturbs the
minds quiet, and mars all the pleas
ures of life. Into whatever excuses
of riot the devotee of black infdelity
may turn, the tormenting thought
will follow him. But what is tor
ment to the believer? The thought
that the Bible is true, the revealings
of past ages attest, and the present
furnishes the grandcst demonstra-
tions.

A SONG OF THE COUNTRY.

Away from the roar and the rattle,
The dust and the din Of the town,
Where 10 live is 10 brawl and bnttle,
Till the strong treads the weak mandown,
Away to the bonnie green hills
Where the sunhine sleeps on the brae,
And the heart Of the greenwood thrills
To the hymn Of the bird on the spray.
Away from the smoke and the smother
The veil Of the dun and the brown,
The push, and the plash, and the pOther,
The wear and the waste OF the town;
Away where the sky shines clear,
And the light breeze wanders ut will,
And the dark pine wood mods near
To the light plumed birch on the hill,
Away from the whirlng and wheeling,
And steaming above and below,
Where the heart has no leisure for feeling,
And the thought has no quiet to grow;
Away where the clear brook purls,
And the hyacinth droops in the shade,
And the plume Of the fern uncurls
Its grace in the depth OF the glade.
Away 10 the cottage so sweetly
Embowered meath the fringe OF the wood,
Where the wife OF my bosom shall meet me
With thoughts ever kindly and good;
More dear than the wealth Of the world,
Fond mother with bairnies three,
And the plunp-armed babethat has curled
Its lips sweetly pouting for me.
Then away from the roar and the rattle,
The dust and the din OF the10wni
Where to live is to brawl and 10 battle
Tillthe strong treadsthe weak man down.
Away where the green twigs nod
In the fragrant breath oil the May,
And the sweet growth spreads on the sod,
And the blithe birds sing on the spray.

Some of the leading Radical lead
ers, who have told Unexpectedly that
the Hayes and Wheeler ticket had
solidly united the whole Republican
party, should take that sterling Rad
ical organ, the Sacramento Record
Onion, in hand and crush its indie
pendent mode of thinking so unusu-
al in Radical circles. Says the Rec
ord Union of the result of the Cincin-
natl Convention: "rhe struggle at
Cincinnati has terminated contrary
to all expectations. The jealousy
and selfshness of his rivals finally
decided them to combine against
Blaine, and by casting all their
strength together they succeeded in
nominating Hayes, of Ohio. The
result is that the strongest candidate,
and the one who would have reused
the greatest enthusiasm, has been
sacrificed to the petty antagonism of
a parcel of small-soulcd wirc-pullers,
and the success of the Republican
party has been seriously imperiled
for the sake of gratifying an envy
which is nothing if not contempt
be"

A Debt to Mother.

Mothers live for their children,
make self-sacrifces for them, and
manifest their tenderness and love
so freely that the name, mother, is
the sweetest in the human language.
And yet sons, youthful and aged,
know but little of the anxiety, the
nights of sleepless and painful soli-
tude which their mothers have spent
over their thoughtless waywardness.
These longing hearts go down to
their graves with those hours of ago
ny untold. AS the mother watches
by night, or prays in the. privacy
of her closet, she weighs well the
words which she will address to her
son in order to lead him to a man
hood of honor and usefulness. She
will not tell him all the griefs and
deadly fears which beset her SOUL
She warns him with trembling, lest
she say overmuch. She tries to charm
with CHEEKY love while her heart is
bleeding. No worthy or successful
man ever yetSknew the breath. and
depth of'thergrdpt obligation which
he is under to the mother who guild
ed his helpless steps at time when
his character for virtue and purity
was so narrowly balanced against a
course of vice and ignominy.
