A MINERAL SERMON.

The next day was Sunday, and the
Major went to meeting as every gen.
tleman should do. No class Of men
perhaps in the world, more need the
restraint of the gospel, than the mi
ners. The greater part of them are
young men, removed from the .influ-
ence OF parents, and untamed by the
magic charm of female society. The
miner is frequently found . man OF
great daring, of much generosity and
wonderful force of character; but
generally improvident, and too often
with dash of ferocity in him that
rides rough-shod over the requisite
restraint of law or order. Here, If
any where, the pulpit should be sup.
piled with eloquent and learned aye,
learned divines /; devout men, whose
morals will endorse their doctrines,
and whose dress and address will
correspond to the dignity of their
profession.
The Major glanced around to see
it he could discover amongst the wor.
shippers, her whose eye beaming with
love had so often sent through him q
sudden thrill of ecstacy. There was
q galaxy Of bright eyes, flashing and
twinkling around him /; but those
bright particular stars that ruled his
destiny, were invisible. Where is
she : Perhaps at some other place
Of worship; for he that would see

lage, must look two ways of a SUM-
day, or perhaps-but truce TO con-

When these organs were excited,
the subject stood up, and at the same
instant, as if moved by the same i'm

arose, to the establishment of every
body. The subject then proceeded
to utter, with the most fervid and i'm.

stanzas. Meanwhile the lady stood

Beyond control

When she drew nigh;
We crimsoned at each Others glance,
Yet dared not sigh
For she was not my own

We glowed with burning rapture; yet

For she was not my own

two men whose cool courage and professional
