the text at the MOravian Church on Sun
day evening last, Q8th inst.) and a
more stirring Sermon, with intent las
was eclared by the Preacher, Rev. II.
II. Henry of sounding a note OF solemn
warning to the persistent desecrators Of
The Loru's Day, has seldom been deliv-
cred from Pulpit.
| am writing as one of those who are
among the rImber Of totadly-indifferent
people, utterly regardless as to whether
or not we incur Almighty Gods displeas
ure; but | must confess, that was very
deeply touched--in fact felt--as the
u~nmistakeable, distinct and solemn proofs
were laid bare in my hearing, that we
who violate this law Of God, so reckless
ly as is done here, or any where else, are
actually standing on the brink of a
Divine vengeance, that may at any time,
by His will, Overtake and send US to
eternal perditi0n. We are Christian
people, we would feel deeply insulted. if
we were regarded otherwise; hut strang-
ers from other Christian lands, visiting
this, are shocked at our manner of OBJ
serving and keeping the Lords Day.
1t is useless for US to argue, that in
many lands, where the inhabitants are
just as protesting as we are in this, there
is felt complete immunity from Gods
visitation and that such people boast of
their happiness and prosperity, even
under conditions more horrible and sin
full, than that of Sabbath-desecration.
There is perhaps no denial to this, up to
now; but has there been any condition
allowed for, or any promise made by the
Most High, whereby because mGny err
in the same way, that therefore amy
part thereof will be forgiven? Should
we not rather say, and bear we'll in mind
too: that a just God who will by no
means clear any that are guilty, will in
His own time, visit and punish all to-
gether? |, for my part am solemnly
resolved, not longer to look with indif-
ference upon what should in all earnest
ness be considered as a voice from above;
remembering we'll, that the Preacher,
young man though he is, bade US take
notice, that he felt Divinely-inspired to
speak plainly and emphatically on the
subject of disregard in this land of this
Holy Law; and | shall endeavour as far
as possible to set a good example.
1t has been noticed for some months,
and in one or two cases very recently,
that hitherto-prominent traffickers on
Sunday Mornings, have made a cessation
of this. Messrs. Creque and A. c.. Bough
are among those. Would to God that
the remaining ones who still obstinately
persist in continuing, may be moved by
the Holy Spirit to do the same, so that

SO when the clock on the mantel had
ticked the last minute
About fifteen good grandmas found
out they Weren't "in it,"
Mrs. Jim Mcdonald was announced
the priZe-winner,
And homemade rag rug warmed
the gratitude in her.
Fiftyfiye was the number Of seed
she had Tinted.
And our congratulations were due
her, unstinted.
We beg leave to offer our best OF
good wishes:
May her feet ne'er grow cold, and
may all her dishes
Be upturned every time Fortune
chances to rain,
For Of this latest shower she has
naught to complain.
We next followed our hostess the
loom house to survey,
Where the old loom has stood for
many a day,
With its massive old beams. it's sleigh
and it's shuttle.
And the warp Of red thread through
which it must scuttle.
On the old loom bench one by one
took her seat
And what once seemed a hardship
now seemed rare treat;
For many life story in rapid sue
ceSsiOn,
LoOmcd up in each heart had she
made q confession.
For memories mournfully sad and
yet sweet
Came crowding each other the mo-
mcnt our feet
Touched the pedals of this time
honorcd frame, tall and
grand.
And We thought Of our mothers the
best in the land
How with dear. willing hands they
the shuttle did ply.
And with warm h6mespun clothes
did our fathers supply
While the Civil War waged Oh.
what heroines they,
To keep up the home fires, and help
In the fray!
And oh! may their daughters leave
traces OF worth.
When our bodies remingle with the
dust OF the earth.
Now, the rug being finished, with
deft fingers and thumbs
Twas removed from the loom, ieav-
ing long useful thrums;
A deep fringe was left, too, to finish
tho ends.

Citizcns OF Walhalla and other

not "bust" the treasury was that he
