MISOBTJIIANTT Til* Sabbail?. TIT Silt EDWARD BIU.WKK LYTTON. Fresh glide? tlie brooks, and blows the ? gale, I But yonder halts the quiet mill ! The whirling wheel, the rushing sail. How motionless and still ! Six dava of toil, poor child of Cai?, j Thy strength tho slave of want maybe;! The seventh thy limbs escape the chain--j A God bath made thee free ! Ah, tender was tho law that gave This holy respite to the breast, To breathe the gale, to watch the wave. And know the wheel may rest ! Bat where thu waves the gentlest glide. What image charms to fight thine eyes ? The spiro reflected on the tide Invites thee to tho skies. To teach to soul its noblest worth The rest from mortal toil is given ; Go snatch tho briof reprieve from earth And pass -a guest to Heaven. Thev tell thee in their dreaming school, of power from old dominion hurled. When rich or poor, with juster rule. Shall share the altered world. Alas, since time itself began, That fable hath but fooled the hour; Each ago that ripens power in man, BUG bttbjccts man to power. Yet everv day in seven, at least, One bright republic shall be known : Man's world awhile hath surely ceased. When God proclaims His own. Six davs may rank divide the poor, O Dives, from thy banquet hall. Thc seventh the Father opens his door, And holds his feast for all 1 Tile Influence of Christianity Upon Scientific IMscovery anti National Wealth. The grand revolution in European thought which resulted in giving to the world a purified religion and an unveiled universe at the same time, must have had its origin in the same great mond cause. To two great tuen it was indeed given to inaugu? rate the revolution, hut they were both evidently awakened to the ne? cessity and importance of the great revolution in thought and principle, upon which they entered by the same mysterious all-pervading influence. Luther was doubtless the prophet sent to awaken, purify and elevate the church; while Bacon was com? missioned of God to unfold to the world the true philosophy of investi? gation. But both of these great minds were only the exponents of that intellectual maturity and energy to which God had conducted the European mind, under the quicken? ing and enlightening influence of his word. "Wickliffe had already ap? peared as the moving star of the re? formation heralding the approach of a brighter day for the church, and Roger Bacon had arisen, as the pioneer of experimental science, and was both a promise and a prophecy of that great light, that was soon to flood with its glory the whole field of scien? tific discovery. The juxtaposition in time and place of the great minds that have done so much to give direction to human thought in both theology and science, will show us how that light was disseminated which no w shines upon us in noon-day effulgence, from an opened Bible and an unveiled uni? verse. Copernicus appeared in 1473, and gave publicity to his astronomical conclusions in 1543. Luther was born in 1343, and published his letter in 1517. Kepler lived between 1571 und 1030. Galileo from 15G4 to 1042; and Bacon's great work appear? ed in 1G20 '21. Tim.", we find co-ex? isting in about one century, the great leaders in the mighty two-fold move? ment of modern mind. Some of them breathed the same air, and looked upon tho same skies. Not a genera? tion intervenes between the first and the last. These facts indicate very clearly the influence of the Christian religion as the central fountain from which these two grand streams of thought gush? ed up and rolled forth to benefit and bless society with their pure and healthful waters. We see here almost the actual birth, as well as the un? paralleled growth of modern science, ni the quickening influence of the word of God upon European mind, j The influence of tho Christian reli? gion upon the rise and progress of modern science is also evident from the fact that the branch of the hu? man family, whose whole character has been most thoroughly permeated by the teaching and spirit of the Bible, lias been in advance of every other people in the successful deve? lopment of, every department of phy? sical science. - [n physiology, the two greatest dis? coveries ever made were by English philosophers. Harvey detected the circulation of the blood, and Sir Charles Bell distinguished between the nerves of sensation and those of motion. Sydenham laid the founda? tion of medical science, and John Hunter that of comparative anatomy, while Jenner invoked the wonderful secret of vaccination. In chemistry, also, the English have led. Dr. Black, of Edinburgh, discovered carbonic acid gas, and first announced the doctrine of latent heat. Dalton first explained the won? derfully adjusted law of chemical equivalents. Priestly discovered oxygen gas; Watts and Cavendish ascertained the composition of water; Davy founded agricultural chemistry and invented the safety lamp; and Newton disco? vered the ?aw of gravitation and the analysis of light. In America, uuder the influence of the Christian religion, we see men equally successful in the study of the physical sciences. Franklin disco vexed the identity of electricity and j lightning. Fulton applied steam to j navigation. Maury has fenced the highway of the sea and written finger? boards upon the atmosphere. Morse has harnessed the firey bird of heaven and made the lightning our post-boy. These facts show the influence of Christianity in producing the won? derful progress we have made in scientific discovery within the lust century. It is evident to every reflecting j mind, that the discoveries of science i and their practical application to the j productive arts have contributed very greatly to the development of our national resources, and the in? crease of our national wealth. What woi?d agriculture, mining, the nie ] chanical arts, manufacture and com? merce be, without the aid of science? And what would ho thc extent of our individual and national wealth, with? out the contributions of these pro? ductive arts of the country? The question is its own answer. To the same extent, then, that Christianity has contributed to scien? tific discovery, has it also contri J buted to our social progr?s?; ?nd the ' increase of our national wealth. ! i Confession and Death of an Army Chaplain. M. M. Pomeroy, the able editor of the La Crosse (Wisconsin) Democrat, gives tho following death-bed scene, which he was called to visit in his recent visit to Chicago: The Rev. Henry Clannard, an ex army chaplain, who left off expound? ing the Bible and recruiting for the the Saviour, and by endorsing the nigger and abolitionism became au army chaplain in one of the Wiscon? sin regiments, passed from life to a home beyond a blessed immortality, tlie other day, and thus shuffled off his mortal coil. A physician had called on him two or three times a day for a month, doctoring him for an ague brought on while stealing cotton in Arkansas while with General Curtis. On learn? ing that the ex-minister and ex-chap Iain would hardly Uve the night out, we called with the physician. In a little wooden-looking room, not over twelve feet square, in an ob? scure boarding-house in Chicago, we found the invalid. The room was bare of furniture, except a poor bed. a little, dirty wash-stand, two wood bottom chairs, an old trunk, a pine table, on which was spread a newspa? per, on which lay an old bible, a pair of old snuffers, some pill-boxes, and such stuff. The dying man -was propped up in bed, while a faithftd negro woman sat on the foot of the bed. As we entered, he rallied a little, aud asked the doctor who he had brought with him. Ou beiug told that it was "Brick" Pomeroy, he sank back, closed his eyes, rallied a little, and said, "Perhaps it is as well. He might as well know it as auy oue. " And he proceeded to make his dying statement, which was in these words, as we took them down in our memo? randum book, as the physician re? quested : "My name is Henry Clannard. I am forty-one years old. I was once happy aud contended, aud loved Christ, my Master, with all the zeal a Christian ever had. At last I grew cold in religion, selfish and envious of the good fortunes of others. 1 wanted to make money and to have some fun. I had no par? ticular education, so I thought I would be a Republican politician. 1 begau by preaching politics from the pulpit, and praying for the negro, lt paid me in money, but I lost influence at the Throne of Grace. But 1 did not care for that, if I could only have influence with tho Republican party. I forgot Christ and became interested in the negro. T had influence w ith ti few members of .my church, ami talked politics to them. 1 was paid by office-seekers to influence Chris tians. Sometimes 1 have made a? high as fifteen dollars at an election for my influence with Christians. ''Atlast, F found polities paid bet? ter than religion, and I worked foi the chaplaincy of a regiment, and gol ! it. Then I let religion go, and went I to war. There I wrote letters hom? I denouncing Democrats as copper heads. And I stole cotton, and silvei ware, and pictures, and books, an? dresses for my wife and sisters, am horses and mules for my brothers I a piano for the governor, who gave nu my commission, and a gold watch fo: mycaptaiu, and a lot of household fur nitnre to send to my colonel. And robbed the soldiers of jelly and sud stuff sent down to them to use whil in hospital, and I had my share o goods stolen from sanitary fairs, am made lots of money. Please give m a little piece of that pounded iee. The physician gave it to him, whei he continued : "But I was not happy. I dranl whiskey with the boys when awn, from home, and indulged in som excess not worth mentioning, an laid up quite a pile of money An I was taken sick while out stealin cotton from a plantation where, widow lady lived. I liad coaxed he niggers to run away, and they aro a dead now. When the war was endet I came home to Wisconsin, buteoul not stay there. So I came to Chicagt and I grew sick. And I have got t die. I have called on Christ-I ha\ j prayed to God, but somehow I cai j not get relief for my soul. The doc of mercy seems shut against me. forsook religion for politics, and no God has forsaken me. I pray to ni Saviour, but he don't hear me. talk to this faithful negro woman she says, 'Yes, massa!' and that is all I can get out of her. 1 know I can't live long. T feel that 1 am dying. I feel certain that I am going to hell. Please give mo a little piece more of iee before I go. 1 want these things written down, as a warning to others who forget Christ for polities. I feel that the negro can't save-that Christ won't save me. I Aas unfaith? ful to my religion and am forgotten. I was faithful to the negro, but, alus! the negro can't help me where I want help-he can't ease my guilty soul. J am going to hell, and I know it. I expect to meet many persons there i who forgot religion for politics. T do j not expect to see you again in this j world or the next, but I want this i confession printed. Please - give | me-a-small - small - piece- of -of j -ice!" And thus died the Rev. Henry Clan nardi Kashloiis for Muy.

DAILY, SEMI-WEEKLY ANO WEEKLY. TO THE PU HU c. THE NEW YORK NEWS has battled against despotism for four yearn of blood and terror, in assertion of the sanc? tity of the Constitution. A patriotism suf? ficiently broad to embrace both sections has been its only guide, and it refers now with honest pride to its record to show that it has not turned to the right or the left under all the violence of arbitrarv power. True to its principles as THE NEWS has been through the reign of ter? ror, it challenges public confidence in its honesty and independence for the future. The political transition of the present dav opens to THE NEWS a new and wider Held of usefulness. Standing now, as it always has, on the inviolability of the Constitution, according to the interpreta? tion of the strict constructionists, it pre? sents a rallying ground for all, in both sec? tions, who are friends of a generous con? servatism. As a true ami tried exponent of sectional amity, it occupies a position which makes it the titting mediator in holding up to tho party of order in both sections, interests and principles that gave breadth and vitality to their alliance. As an interseetional agent, devoted to free? dom of election, to trial by jury, to the sanctity of the habeas corpus, and opposed now, as for four years of terror it has been, to the centralization tiiat dares to trample on the rights of States, North or South, THE NEWS placen itself as a candidate for support before the great body of thin once fre?- people. The circumstances of the moment make the dissemination of the principles of THE NEWS a duty < f individual patriotism. Every man Who concurs in its doctrine must, it he entertain a true sense of free? dom, do so in no spirit of indifference, but rather with the earnestness of a high trust. Justified-nay, bound - in his love of liber? ty, to do so, the proprietor places the can? vass he makes here of the public generally in the hands of those men who give him the approval of their consciences as his in? dividual agents. Eveiy reader of THE NEWS cannot avoid the conviction of duty which is here pointed out as the ground of the request, that he urges its claims for a wider support upon all of his friends and neighbors who give their earnest sympa? thies to the cause of "strict construction." interseetional conciliation, and all the rights of the citizens under the system, set up by our fathers, of liberty regulated by law. The proprietor of THE NEWS calls, therefore, upon good and true con? servatives throughout the country to dis? charge to their convictions of political right at this great crisis in the country's fortunes, thc duty of giving to' the influ? ence of his paper daily, semi-weekly or weekly the wider power for good which it ?eeks here through the service of its indi? vidual supporters.
