Alas ! I tried in vain.

I Ioj^' have felt too low to sneak,
Oh! I have ho'iirhttoo inuchoflate?

UNiON?A FABLE.
A wolf, m o had hem preveling about a
long ti ne id ques' mod. a: length was
nearly funis:.- d. S- tmgdown, he; bethought
himself wL.tr a had :hing i; was for animals
to slum each o'h?*r so much, and especially
that the sheep must needs keep so close to
the fold. Just then, a hungry lbx came
along, to whom no wolf communicated
his grief. Ti.o fox said he was rejoiced at
his very heart 'o sympathize with his good
friend, die wolf. I le had always looked apou
the distance re wis among animals,
and osp ci.dly me enclosures which some
ol them had, as very wicked things. Why,'
said he, 41 have just been out to call on
neighbor chanticleer; bat I found him so
puiKrd up with j ride, he would not even
com^ down for a friendly chat with me.'
Thereupon they had quite an affecting time:
they bo h shed a tear or two, and agreed it
was very in.olerablo, and they would
get up a better spirit among the other aniinals.
They though! the best way'would
be to cull a great meeting, and have a good
many speeches, mid so persuade all to foll.mshin
one another without anv reserve.
TVv were confident brothers leopard, bruin.
and ca>amountaiii would co-operate efficiently.
Upon this their stomachs felt a
good deal comforted.
Now, the sheep and poultry lived in the
same neighborhood, and close by were the'
rabbits and hares, while a little farther oil
dwelt the roe. They never had any ruarrels
among themselves, (though the wolf
would sometimes put on sheep's clothing to
get among them and make a difficulty:)
ami when the missives came inviting them
to a union convention, they could not see
the necessity of it, and concluded not to go.
JJut it was rumored about that they were
enemies of pe; cc, and the cause of all the
noise and trouble i:i the neighborhood, (because
* i'\v did sometimes speak out when
bitten :) ami so a few of the more :itriid and
fickle thought it better to attend. In this

lueir fellows.
The animals all met. The lion seated
himself oil the highest mound as niodera or.
The wild cat and panther looked out
for advantageous seats in a large oak overhead,
and drew in their claws as much as
possible. The tiger, wild boar, and other
animals were round about the hushes.?
The wolf, who occupied the top of a rock,
felt it incumbent upon him to open the meeting.
Said he?" Long, long have we suffered
fro) 11 the horrors of disunion. 1 >istrast
of our friendly intentions has sprung
up in certain quarters, and produced the
most distressing inconveniences. Notwithstanding
our manifold and unequivocal
professions of friendship?notwithstanding
we have demonstrated in every possible
manner our strong desire for an intimate
and harmonious intercourse with our disaffected
brethen, they have invariably
exhibited a determined hostili y. Hut the
sight of this auditory cheers me. Although
O

suffered most excruciatingly from tin's
cause, siiii in the survey of such an assem.
bly, 1 feel amply repaid for all my perils
among false brethren. I am prepared to
welcome a//"?said he, grinning most expressively
at the sheep, who returned the
compliment with an excellent good grace.
Reynard, (who is a very polished speaker)
next addressed the meeting. I cannot

PHILOSOPHY or RELIGION*. K
While protracted meetings, which this ar | at
Licit' recommends, may have been blessed , h;
in many ins furvs to the conversion of the qi
sinner, I thin:: that their influence upon ike > ol
general stale of religion, through the length 1 th
and breadth of the land, has not been sola- i ai
tarn, end that tin' Church won hi havc been II
in (i letter condition without them. It np- tu
: pears to me that ministers and churches < b<
; iiave been leaning to their own understand- | g(
ing, and so occupied in pevisino ways s:i
and means to convert and save sinn ees. ik
and do up the work at once, that they have ! le
had hut little time to study the religion of re
the Bible, or to inquire what tbe Lord would w
: have them to do. Tiic Lord will he fa
. known and acknowledged as God ; as the . sc
author of all holy, efficient influences, by u{
wiiicli his peculiar work is revived. A d<
j course has been pursued which to me lias J sn
i trie appearance of shu ting God out of the j' <
1 Church; of excluding the operations of die 1 G
; Divine Spirit in converting sinners; a course vr
! which has set human wisdom above *h-* sv
j wisdom of God, and exalted human iastiu- ki
I mental.tv vei v much to liie exclusion of the 44
IIolv Ghost from his peculiar province of th
gracious opera-;on. Go:! has be* n robbed j or
of li s glory. 1 would specify some eases , i>3

I many have depended upon protracted meet, j sp
j ings, of ten, twenty, or even lor y da\s, o ' re
j revive religion ; if they wished for a revival ] w?
of religion, multitudes have supposed run: ar
they must have a protraced live mg ; that 1 pi
they could not rationally ex;?< ct ;i revival I ;?l
without it, and felt almost assured of witnes-1 ti!
sing t.ho conversion of many s.nwrs as th<- js'i
result of such a meeting; t!>e measure was ; sp
relied on as next to Omnipot< n\ ()no jcc' ! "
j minister said to me, in relercncc to pro. a;
tmctod meetings, "strange we never before 1 Ji
j discovered how to produc e revivals !'' Oil- ; pi
| Iv have protracted mee-mgs nougi', and J ei
j revivals would be perpetual. The priiiei- t vi
i pa! dependence for .sustaining and eni e g.ng j
j :he Church by Iresti coiiversons, was evu j
I dcutlv placed by many good people upon I
1 these meetings. Ilut very little account was si
j made of common Sabbath day preaching, a
' and sonic other express institutions of God. \ w
Again, oilier ministers, and portions of | w
tho Church have depended more upon indi- 1 sc
: vidua I persons, as revival preachers. They j la
have ihonglit a pro racted moi tmg a good s'
thing, but stii!, comparatively of htde use j th
without some " revival man" to take the w
i management of the wliole concern. And j to
when Mr. B.. or Mr. F., or Mr. 1\ or some ; ><
j other man verses J in cc?nv< rting sinners ::i
i came upon the ground, t!iey expected no- j .11
, thing short of a grout revival. M my have j
looked on these men as he groat power;m
of God. Their dependence was upon 'he j's
! men. If a revival ensued, i; was ascribed : w
| to them. This is glorying in man. j lii

TIIIl DYING 13110 OF A MOTIIiili.
Of all the relations on carta none are
lore sacred than that of the mother. Ii J
ay person tins side of heaven has claims j
) superior attention, it is an afiec ion ate, pi- j
us, aged, helpless, sutiering, dying mod:- j
r. Sixteen days my mother had been suf- j
ring keen distress of body. Wi h the ex-1
option of one interview, 1 had been absent; ;
ut was now called to gaze upon her dying
tatures. I had ever thought that I could comland
my feelings on any emergency whatvc:\
but their gushing tide now ovi rwhelm1
inc. Others told me that she was trimnhantly
waiting for the chariot to take:
or home ; but I wished to hear the sweet j
stimony iiom her own dear lips. Azain j
ad again I went to iier bed-side, took her |
mil in mine, with a lull resolution to 111- j
lire concerning her faith and hope, but as ;
lien did the swelling lide stop my utterance, j
le scenes of infancy all came up in review, j
id iiiev. seemed as it were but yesterday. |
;er sprig'.tly step, her once blooming lea- |
res, her sootiiing voice seemed presented j
do re me, renewed in youthfulness and vi- \

ady half-clos 'J, tiie lips tiiat firs .old me I
ho made m?\ and taught me ;o say, ' Our \
tlier who art in heaven,' were about io be j
ait d forever in death : these impressions j
>on my feelings, I shall no? attempt to i
scribe. Once more I stood by her b<-title,
and with a flut oriug voice enquired,
Mother, have you still unshaken faith in
oJ/' r>u: the thrilling name of mother j
brated no longer upon her ear: she anrered
no more by words or signs." Alas, 1 |
sse.l the clay colJ hand, and exclaimed, j
Farewell, mother, my much beloved mo- i
er." I. was no less affecting to see a venab'.e
old man, whose hairs were lit-ached
the iios's of seventy winters, af er he had
>nc till that love could suggest,weeping over !
s dying partner, with whom lie had lived (
