And eall the brethren forth from want and vto;

Which guides the nations, groping on their way,
Btumbling and falling in disastrous night,

Yee! thou art, still the Life; thou art the Way
The holiest ictiow—Light, Life, and Way of heaven I
And they who dearest hope, and deepest pray,
Toil by the light, life, way, which thou bast given.
GRATITUDE FOR HOME.
Sweet are the homely joys of love,
Beyond the bliss that wealth can prove,
The safe abode, the frugal fare,
My palace make—if love be there:
O'er land or sea let others roam,
Father, I thank thee for my home.
The board with healthful bounties spread,
The sheltering roof, the lowly bed,
The winter's fire" the summer's shade,
Are gifts that annot be repaid :
O'er lipid or ses let others roam,
Father, I thank thee kir ruy home..
My'iit and nsvlnOther there
rtibrace us in Nett. faiihtul . care;
Brothers and sisters nestle round,
W any a smile and joyous sound i
O'er land.or sea let others roam,
Father„l thank thee for my home.
While, over all, the of pea*
Affords protection and increbey.
The opened Word, the daily prey
Proclaim aloud that God is thire:
O'er land or sea let otherti
Father, I thank thee.for my home.
;THE . LIGHTHOUSE ,
DAUGHTER.
A TRUE STOW
A lighthouse is a high tower, or building, the
tipper part of which is called " the lantern," wheal
lamps are lit at night. The light of these lamps
shines all night, to guide ships on their way, and
to show *hero danger lies. TO : lighthouse meats
to Bay, "Take care, sailors, fai.. - xocks and Bands
are here. Beep a good look-iuOind miud how
you sail, or you will be lost."
Two or three persons live in the3ighthouse to
attend to the lamps. We will iiiit , lsaßinto one
of these buildlnger on the coast of . ooosll.
Littl cry was in the lightlioe: The
night was ming on, and a storm WltErtilaz,on
the sea. Sh beard the waves dash egatiat f alo
rooks, and the WI moan round the 'tower. "Ft'
Mary's father ha 'mined the lamps, and they
were ready for lighting hcp the evening came
on. But as he wanted to - boy_ some food, he
crossed tho "causey," which leaarto_the land.
This causey was a pathway over the reeks and
rands, which could only be passed for two or three
hours in the day; at other times the waters rose
and covered it.. The father intended to hasten
home before it was dark, and before the tide
flowed over this path to the shore.
But where was Mary's mother? She had been
dead for two or three years. She was
. a pious
woman, and often sat in the lonely lighthouse
with her little girl, teaching het: to read from a
large old Then she used to tell her of
Jesus, the Lord of life and glory, and how he
came into the world, and . died - on the cross to save
sinners, and how he invites the young to come to
„ e' 11 . '

afraid, for that he would soon return. ;But there
were some rough-looking men behind a rock; who
were watching Mary's father, and seemed glad as
they saw him go to the land. Who were they?
These men were wreckers. They waited about
the coast, and if a vessel was driven by a storm
on the rocks, they rushed down—not to help the
poor sailors—but to rob and ill-treat them, and to
plunder the ship.
The wicked men knew that there was only a
little girl left in the lighthouse; and they had a
plan to keep her father on the shore all the night.
Some ships, filled with 'rich goods, were expected
to pass before the morning; and they thought
that, should the lamps in the lighthouse not be
- lit, those vessels would run upon the rocks and be
wrecked, and then the goods would be their
spoil.
How cruel and wicked these men must have
been to seek the ruin and death of the poor sail
ors! But we see how true is what the Bible
says: "The heart is deceitful above-all things,
and desperately wicked; who can knowit?"
Mary's father had filled -his basket with bread
and other, things, and had prepared to return;
for it would soon be time to light the lamps. As
he drew nigh to the road leading to the mosey,
the wreckers rushed from their biding-place, and
threw him ontbe ground. They quickly bound
his hands and feet with ropes, and carried him
into a shed, there to lie till the morning. It was
in vain that ho cried to them to be set free; they
only mocked hie distress. They then left him to
the charge of two men, while they ran back.to the
shore.
"Oh, my sweet little Mary What will Ytfou .
cried the father, as he lay in the shed; "there
will be no one to light the lamps: many ships
may be wrecked, and hundreds of sailors may be'
lost."
Mary looked from a narrow window in the
lighthouse towards the shore, thinking it was time
for her father to come back. The clock in the
little room had just struck six;- and she knew
that the waters would soon rise up to the causey.
An hour
• passed; the clock struck seven and
Mary still looked towards the beach ; but. no
father was to be eeen. By the time it was eight,
the tide was nearly over the pathway; only bits
of rook here and there were above the waters, and
they too were *soon covered over. "Oh, father,
make
_haste,* died Mary aloud, as though her
father,could beak, her: "have you. forgotten ; your
little girl?" But the only answer was the noise
of the waters at they rose .hi and higher, and
the roar of the wind as it notice of the
coming storm, ...
Now Mary sat &it and w - Surely there
would be DO I . lote, that night,'s any a vessel
Would be cast ashore. \ .'r ,

4 ; mienrose in' the tifY, blaok•-storoi-clouds soon
edvered her' from sight, and 'then not a star was
seen. The, wreakers walked along -the shore,
looking for some ship to strike on the coast. These
men hoped that the sailors, not seeing the lights,
would think that they were not near the coast,
and would be dashed on the rocks.
Just at this moment the thought •came into'
Mary's mind that she would try to light the lamps.
But what could a' little girl do? The lamps,
were far above her reach. She, hoWever, got a
few matches, and made• a light. The neat thing
waste carry a set of steps to the spot, and attempt
to reach the lamps. But after moth, lattorothe,
found they were Ain above her head. A small
table was salt brought from below,, and Mary.put

hope and joy, N now she was almost Ore,that

All that stormy night the lamps 6st-their rays
over the fawning sea; and when the morning

The storm now became quite fearful. The sail
ors looked along the coast for the lights. Where
could they be? had they' brought their ships in
a wrong direction? They were at a loss to tell,
and knew not which way to steer.
All this time Mary's father was praying in the
shed, that God would take care of his child in the
dark and lonely lighthouse.
Poor Mary was about to sit down ag ain, and
weep, when she thought of the large old Bible in
the room below. But how could she tread on that
book ? It was God's holy word, which her mother
loved so much to read. "Yet it is to save life,"
said she; "and if mother wore here, would she
not allow me to take it?" Mary did not scorn
her mother's Bible; its very covers were precious
in her sight.
In a minute the large book was. brought and
placed under the steps, and up she got - again.
Yes; she Wa3 just high enough : then ihe touched

And for the speedy cure of the subjoined varieties of Disease:
Scrofula and Scrofulous Ageotions, such as Tumors, Vi
care, Bores, Eraptions,..rimples, Pustules', Blotches,
Boils, Blains, and all Skin Diseases.
Scrofula, or King's Evil, Is a constitutional disease, a correction
of the blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated, weak, and poor.
being in the circulation, it pervades tho whole body; and may burst
outtn dilease on any part of , it. -No organ is free from its attacks,
nor is there one which it may not destroy. The scrofulous taint is
'vartbusly caused byfrieretiried disease, low living, disordered or un
healthy food, impure air, dual and filthy habits, the depressing vices,
and, abole all, by the yenereal infection. Whatever be its origin,
it is hereditary in the constitution, deacending "from parents to
children unto the third and fourth generation;" Indeed. It seems
to be the rod of Him who says,—"l will visit the lnigeditto of the
fathers upon their children?, •
' Its effects commence by deptedtlon from the blood of corruptor'
ulcerous matter; which, in the lunge, liver, and internal organs,
is termed tuberciee; in, tbe glands, swellings; and, on the sartate,
eruptions or sores. This foul corruption; which getodeirs "hi the
blood, depresses the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitutions
net only suffer from scroftilouti eemplaiute, but they have far less
power - to withstand the attacks of other diseases;' consequently,
vast nuMbers perish by disorders, which, although not scrofulous
'4n their, nature, are still rendered fatal by this taint In the al /stem.
Most,pf. the consumption which decimates the human family, has
its or4in diretstly 7n this ecrotolous contamination; and many-de
struee ditieresce of the liver, kidneys, brain, and, indeed, of.alt the
°igen!, arise from or are aggravated by,the same cause. • •
One quarter'orall our people are scrofulous; their persons are In
vaded by this linking infection, and thblr health le undermined by
it. To cleanse lkfrom the system; we most renovate the blood. by
an:alterative medicine, and invigorateit , , , healthy flood and exer

frOM you nearly five years ago, from the rains of our
building,'Ho..7l6‘Chestnut street, which was entirely
:destroyed by fire on the morning of the 17th inst.
So .rapid was the progress of the flames, before we
could reach the store, 'the whole interior was one mass
of fire. The Safe being in the back part' of the', store,
and surrounded the .most combustible materiels t yras
exposed 'to great heat. It fell with the walls of that
part of the building into the cellar, and remained Im
bedded in the ruins-for more than thirty boars.
The. Safe was opened this-morning in the presence of
ber of gentlemen, and, the contents, comprising
bills, receivable money; intl. a large amount
Iszapers, are all safe; not a-thing was touched
