'Tis holy, when the morning peeps Softly through the shadowy night. When nature gems of beauty weeps. And the bright world so gently sleeps Hushed in its pomp and might. 'Tis holy. in that hour of eve, When twilight's robe is spread, When thought mnay solemn visions weave, And care and pain and sorrow leave, Till all but peace hath fled. 'Tis holy, when the glistening rays Jt many a silent star Gleams on that sad and yeatning gaze, That up to Heaven its prayer would raise, And send its dream afar. 'Tis holy. whet the choral song.

'Tis holy, when loud thunders roar, Atid lightiting flashes round, When ocean breaks npon the shore, And heavy clouds the Heaven's rush b'er, And winds send forth deep sound. Bot holier e'en than these, the shrine, Where low the loved is lying; Where glimmering of a love divine, Through pain and sorrow softly shine, The chamber of the dying.

Poverty is, except where there is an actual want of food and rairmetnt, a thing miteh more imtagainary thani real. The shame of poverty--the shame of being thouught poor--it is a great and falal weak ness, though arising in ithis country from the fashion of the tim-s themseves.-Cob beUt. A traveller w bo spent some tme in Tur key, relates a beautiful parable which was told him by a dervis, atid which seems even more beautiful than Sterne's cele braied figure of the accusing spirit and .re cording anugel. Every mnan..said he, has -two aug-els, one on his right shotilder and one on his left. When he does anything good. the angel on his right shouldjer writes it down, and seals ii; hecause what is once well done, is done foreyer. When he does evil, the angel upon his left shoulder writes it down, liut does not seal it. He wait, till midnight. If before that time the man bo'vs downi his head and e.xclaims, -'bra clous Allah' I have sinned-forgive mes." the angel rubs i out; but if not, at tnid night he seals iW ud the angel upon the righr shoulder weeps. -A Good One-it is presumned to be a -generally lknown fact, (at least among married men):tbla a species of grasia cloth has he.n worn the .past summer, wvhen manufactured: -io 'ladies' shirts-which gave the p~erson wearing it quite an in creased totulndity. ofi form.

From the Auguia -rashinglonman. The extract from Mr. Pierponf deserves th; seriotb considerqtion of every mani who really desires th'e prosperity of Augusta. In vain will we manufaeture, and econo mise in otner respects, wlil our children and servants are taught to wasti the fruits of our toil and care in i lie and ruinous dissipatiti. TII vain nIa we hope ror prospOrity- while nursih'i bur iosofI, a tire that coosumnes all the elements of pros perity. In vain we expect the blessing of heaven, while this patronized sink of pol. lution shows that we do not deserve it. Sin is a disgrace to any nation?-open and legalized intemperance will prove ihe ruin of any community! Besides the contitded waste of the pro fits of lahbr resulting f'rotn groo selling and buying, the enconragemelt given to itin erant play-actors and circus riders, tends greatly to drain our resources, and also to demoralize our people.-Ntht after night money is thrown away, and Physical and mental eneigy expended; in atendauce upon the vitiating exhibitions of men, ioo lazy to work. ar.d too ignorant to instruct. Ought it to surprise us that the times are hard?-Can men work in the day who spend the night in dissipation? 'Can they relish realities, who depend upon fictions for excitement? Can the money given to vagrants, remain to bless the city? Hard times! They are indeed hard. but they will lie much worse, unless the virtuous arise in tlOo m;tjesty of virtue, and say to the vicious. "Titese things shall no 1,nger he." lut it may be asked, how can the virtu ens arrest the progress of vice? We an swer-by eforcing the laws agai aut all vagrantts and grog sellers. Let them only resolve and act togeiher. and the work is done. If existing laws are inefficient, let the city authorities make thetm stronger. The tales for shows may be so increased as to drive from amonig us*he traffickers in such degrading wares. The penaltibs for selling poison to the unsuspecting citizens may be miade more exemplary.. Th~fere is one cheering ray of light break ing ain upon us through the dark clouds of commercial adversity-it is, that hard n ecessity will insure the reformation pro posed, even if our pleadings fail. ,Cash alone will command sensual gratificationis and as this article will he wanting,our grog buyers anid night revellers, will be comt pelledJ to call a halt. It would be miuch mare noble to do it from choice, but good will come of it, let the cause be what it may. When this is done, the germ of prosperity will be founditi Augusta--until theti no change can do more than enlarge the meatns of those. who waste them on unworthy objects, and spend more at nigh: than all the industrious make during the day. How they get it we know not. but we know the city looses it! The city has its debit and credit accounts, and its bal ance sheet mtust always ezjihii the amount of its ext ravagjance. TIlE KENNEL OF DOQS. By Rev. John Pierpont. Suppose a man should ,come intoi your heautiful village-and here in front ofltbe State House Yard, should build himself a pen for the purpose ofoeeping a pack of mad dogs. And suppose that this man every day as your children bould pass by his kennel on their way to school should let out one or two of his mad dogs to bite your little children-.andi every day your little ones shoud be dying here in Concord, with the hydrophobia ! How long would it take to wake up an interest here to abol jsh that mnd dog knnnel ?

It's a. miserable piece of business, said Neddy Brown: -living's a miserable piece of busiess-and nainkind is a miserable dog. I've threatened to reforni any time these ten years, because, - though I love liqir, I hate intoxication, and. vet here -1 sm1 the same olditwo and. ixpence. I was last night, and every night in the year, which I reinemher, I'm pretly tol-rol for dn- old man every night about 'twelve :'clock. O.Now iomorrowy morning I'll be for passing the reform bill, for the ben it of 'my'constitution ; but at night the. re 1'rm bill will be laid under the table. S'posing I'vwas.to join the temperance so liety, by way of a slant, and taper off' with a quart or two of cider? - But what's the use when I can taper off without join ing? I won't be ruled. by others, when I can go straight.by myself, it I've a &ind to do!' observed Brown, when he brought Wimself up against the wall 'Temper ance! filddle sticks! I must have a little now'and then; - only I can't ever hit the. right quanity. I've 'a graat mind to go and get gaiged! But if'them tempe'rafice rolks will go the entire duimaisihe whole itickler, the complete cat-fish, I'm t he boy to join 'em. Quit the cities and go into he woods. and* dine upon acorns. Veto pig tail, long nines, and ma.caboy. But they won't. They arj.rstlike my. dad. who used to bafiir me foi lying in bed, when I was a boy, and it was only be :ause his coppers were so hot that he could ron sleep. that made him get up. himself. Hot coppers is an earlier riser than n :hicken, and the way to get up early is to take a treble allowance. Bless my heart" said Brown, -if I aint getting the where lo-go in my head. 'What's the matter, neighbor ?' said a man with a badge. 'I'm dizzy-got the where-to-go iii my head instead of my feet.' 'Shall I assist you ?' 'Sir, yon are too polite. You are as insinuating as a corkscrew. I'll not bother you.' 'No bother, not by any menas. It's my 11uty.' 'Here's a philanthropist I His duty to assist peeplo in distress! Why. you're a bird-a perfect ton tit Chesterfield.' 'Don't run your rigs upon me. harky, or I'll give you another guess sort where-to go. I've a sort of impression that you're 3prung. You've had too much tea, and too little water.' 'You hurt my feelings,. and brush the blue of' the delicate plum of my Oharac ter by your insinuations. After to-morrow, I won't touch a toddy, if it should cry for me to kiss it.' 'Well, you shan't be tuek up on suspi cion. Can you you walk a crack, feet to foot. twlstified fashion ?' 'If it wasn't- that I'm troubled in my miud, I'm sure 1 cou!ld. I know I can to morrow, if you'll step in after dinner, take off your thitngs, bring~your work, and stop to tea, as the gals say?' 'That will never do. Walk a crack or you must walk your chalk before the .Mavar.' '"Well. I will. You mus'nt laugh the' you'll put me out.' -Fire away. Flanagan. -I'll be as gravel ats a jackas..,or a justice of the peace when he wautts his dionet.' 'Stand aside !' roared Brown. 'Here goes!' HeI made a desperate . rqas.td es cape, but his accommodaling friend put out his foot, and Neddy Brown typified the decline and fall of the Roman Empire. "I'm down, and it's all up.' sighed lie, 'It's IF for figs, I for jigs; N for konckle bones, and I S for Jack Stones, with me. My knees are stuv' in, and I can't tell whether I've got hands or not. If I'd passed the reform bill,.this wouldn't have ha ppened. I'm a prey to tire law, though i've prayed not to be, many a time. I'll knock og'and come out cat bird for the future. It will be a great saving of fips and clothes, too, for my panuts are torn tan ztniount to the slack of fifty cents ; old Cauvass'ock will charge full that for sew ing a pancake to each knee.'. *Why did'nt you behave nice, and do credit to them as fetch you up, instead of trying to break jail with no more man ners than a hess.' 'How often upon your deed, and deed and double deed, and cross your breath, have you promised that.' 'Don't ask me, fhr I can't tell. I havn't got my cyphering hook.
