POEM, BY MILTON.
the following sublime and affecting production was
but lately disoovered among the remains of our great
*pia poet, and I. published In the recent Oxford edition
of Milton's works:
[N. B.—Mr. W. M. Thayer, of Boston, in his life of
Nitta, "From Poor-House to PlA!pit," gives a very diffe
rent author of this poem,-16 lad, of Philadelphia. He
says, page 169, "The following beautiful lines are ex
pressive of the content and peace of a blind old lady of
Philadelphia, whose name is Elisabeth Lloyd. They
bare often been ascribed to Milton; but it is now known
that this excellent woman is the author."]
I am old and blind!
Men point at me as smitten by God's frown;
Afflicted and deserted of my kind;
Yet I am not oast down.
nm weak, yet strong;
I murmur not: that I no longer see;
Poor, old, and helpless. I the more belong,
Father supreme! to thee.
0, merciful one: •
When men are farthest then thou art moat near;
When friends piss by me, and my weakness shun,
Thy chariot I hear.
Thy glorious face
Is leaning toward me; and its holy light
Shines in bpon - my lonely dwelling place—
And there is no more night.
• On my tended knee .
recegnise thy person clearly shown:
bly vision thou halt dimmed. that I may see
Thyself—thyself alone.
have naught to fear;
This darkness is the shadow of thy wing;
Beneath it I am almost sacred; here,
Can OM no evil thing.
0: I aetnn to stand
Trembling, where foot of mortal ne'er bath been,
Wrapp'd in the radianoe of thy' sinless land,
Whioh eye bath never seen.
Visions come and go:
t3hapes of resplendent beauty round , me throng;
From angel lips I seem to hear the How
Of soft and holy song.
Is it nothing now,
When heaven is opening on my sightless eyes?--
When airs from paradise refresh my brow
The earth in darkness lies.
In a purer (*lime
My being fills with rapture—waves of thought
Roll in upon my spirit—strains sublime
Break over me unsought.
Give me now my lyre!
I.feel the !stirrings of a gift
Within my, bosom glows unearthly fire
Lit by no skill of mine.
The following are the well known lines of Milton,
from Paradise Lost, Book 8, 41-55.
Thus with the year
Seasons return, but not to me returns
Day, nor the sweet approach of even or morn,
Or sight of vernal bloom, or summer's rose,
Or looks or herds, or human face divine,
But aloud instead and ever during dark
Surround me. From the dheerful ways of men
Cut off; and for the book of knowledge fair
Presented with a universal blank
Of Nature's work, to me expunged and razed,
And wisdom at one entrance, quite tiltut out.
So much the rather thou, Celestial Light,
Shine inward, and the mind through all her power,
Irradiate; there plant eyes, all mist from them
Purge and disperse, that I may see and tell
Of things invisible to mortal eight.
THE STORY OF A BIBLE
"How long you have had this Bible, Miss
Annie—ever since you were nine years old, and
now you're a grown-up lady. And how nice you
have kept it. I don't believe I could keep one
half so long," said little Ella; "why do you thilik
so much of this little Bible?"
" Because 1 have had itso long, and still wore, be
cause it was in , its small pages that I first learned
to love God's word. It bus been my daily guide
and comforter for many a long year.'
",Wholave it to you,llliss Annie ?" little Ella
asked presently.
Miss Annie replied that it was too longs story;
but little Ella said, " I do love long stories," and
her eyes sparkled with anticipation. So Miss.
Annie began :
When I was a little girl no older - than you,
Ella, we all lived in Washington city, and attend
ed Mr. Smith's church. All the congregation
loved their minister dearly; the children especially,
bArtuse he always had a pleasant word for even
the smallest, when he met them.
So one day he made a proposition to the Sab
bath-school, and, we were all quite willing to agree
to his wishes. He wished that all the children
who were old enough should commit to memory
the *hole, of the catechism used in the church,
and recite it in presence of the congregation. And
to each child who was able to pass the examina
tion a prize should be awarded according to the
degree of excellence in the recitation.
The children were very much interested in the
plan, and a good deal of excitement arose about
the probable way in which the prizes would be
allotted. I did not say much about it; but I was
ambitious, and made up my mind that I would
never rest until every word of the catechism was
imprinted on my memory.
Three months were allowed in which to study
our new task, and Christmas-eve was appointed
as the time for the examination.' The Sabbaths
no longer appeared tedious to me, for`after I bad
returned from church, and my library book was
read, 'I regularly took up the little blue-covered
Catechioni, and passed the hours till tea-time in
close study of its pages. My sister Mary, who was
older than I, and my brother Robert who was
younger, were equally industrious, and every Sab
lbath evening after tea, my father, who was an
elder in the church, used to call us around him,
and hear us recite what we had learned, aloud,
and talk it over and explain it to us, endeavoring
to impress its sacred teachings upon our minds
So, on the Sabbath' before the day 'of exami
nation we recited tihe whole of the littlehook,,ask
' big each other the questions, and none of us making
a single mistake; and when on Christmas-eve we
took our seats in the front seats of the school-room
and looked at Mr. Smith and several ministers
from other churches, who stood before us ready
to question us, our three little hearts throbbed
with excitement, not fear, for 'we knew our task
bad been faithfully performed.
A table stood in front of the superintendent's
desk loaded with beautiful books. Their bright
bindings of blue and gold and scarlet and green
sparkled io the lamplight, and we felt sure they,
must be full of the lovelleat stories. But we had
not much time to speculate about them, for the
congregation assembled early, and the examination •
began. Question after question was asked; some'
were answered promptly, others bungled through,
others had to bepassed on to the next; but there
was no failure with any of us; every answer was
familiar to us, and 'we had always been taught to'
speak in clear, distinct tones. I saw that Mr.
Smith was surprised and pleased, for we were
among the smallest children in school, and I was
content.
At length it waa all over; and every one sat in
breathless suspense until the prizes should be al
lotted according to the different degrees of merit.
I can see .my father's pleased look now when Mr.
Smith announced the names of us three little
c hild ren a s liaving all been perfect in our reeita
tions, and.tlins tnerited the highest prize, which
was 'a Bible. , But as "hghest prize"
anotherh l echOlar, a lad
had been promised, and as
much older than ourselves, had made no failure
likewise, the Bible was presented to him, and we
were to wait until an order could be sent on to
New York for three - more of similar style.
We did not like this very much; we had al
most rather have taken a lowor,pize than to have
gone home witheut coy ; and 1, who was as great
a d°vuurer of stories as you are now, 'Ella, was
thoughtless enough to say that I would rather
have a 'story-book anyhow.
Some delay occurred in procuring the books
from New York, and we grew very impatient as
day after day passed and our prizes did not arrive.
At last we noticed a brown paper parcel sticking
out of our father's coat pocket as we were coming
home from school one Sabbath afternoon, and we
mild scarcely restrain ear eagerness to have it
o cried nritil we should reach home. Father no
the package as soon as we got in the house,
and out dropped three of the prettiest little Bibles.
—a green, a purple, and a red one.
"I want the red one," I exclaimed, at once
snatching it up.
"No," said Robert, "I asked father coming
home if there was a red one if I might n't have
it."
"Yes," said my father, kindly, "I let him take
his choice because he was the youngest, and it
was the hardest work for him to earn it. You
may take yours next, because you are next young
est.'
So I selected the next brightest in color, which
was this purple one, you see how it is faded now;
and Mary, who was always the unselfish one among
us, was contented with the dark green. She has
been rewarded for her generosity, for hers has
kept in color far better than either of the others.
So the excitement was over, the prize vim and
delivered, and I, like a silly child, caring little fol.
the precious volume itself, only for the honor of
having gained it, put the Bible away in my drawer,
and scarcely opened it for more than a year. But
after that time troubles came to us. God took
from us a little sister whom we bad all made an
idol; then our mother, and at last our father,
were called to their rest. The orphan had none
but God to turn to for comfort, and in those dark
hours of affliction I learned the real value of my
prize, and how it pointed the *ay to attain a nobler
prize, even life everlasting.
My dear little girl, I hope you will never need
such bitter lessons to teach you to love your Bible,
and the God whose word it is.
Miss Annie's tone was very earliest and grave,
and little Ella put up her lips and kissed her be
fore ehe went out to play.
American Messenger.
A JtIST RVitOOF.
"Do let me give you a little French brandy;"
said Mrs. Lee to a young man, who, half reclining
on the sofa in her parlor, was complaining of in
disposition.
"1 believe not, cousin," he replied languidly,
"Terhaps I shall feel better presently."
" I am sure you will not, James, unless you
take some remedy. Our sand-bill water - always
affects you mountaineers disagreeably, and .I must
insist upon your taking something to relieve you."
" I think I shall start home this evening, for
fear I shall be worse. That will be better than
medicine."
44 You ELM WO unwell to start home," said Mrs.
Lee in a troubled voice, and if you won't receive
.my advice when I prescribe as a physician, I will
try your gallantry; you can't refuse the brandy if
I go and bring it to you and ask you for my sake
to take it."
So saying she threw down her knitting and was
hurrying to the pantry, when her young cousin
gently laying his hand on her shoulder stopped
her. lie was very bashful, and it required a great
effort for him to speak to a lady under any circum
stances, and the blood mounted to his temples as
he attempted to apologize for what he felt ap
peared rude in his conduct.
" Cousin," he said," please don't bring it. lam
nearly twenty-one, and as yet have never tasted
•any thing which could intoxicate. Ido not know
one kind of spirits from another even by the
color, and on my death-bed I want to be able to
say the same."
" This is just reproof,' James," exclaimed Mrs.
Lee, frankly. " I offered it thoughtlessly, but you
may trust me as long as there is a single remedy
which will answer the purpose at all, I never again
will even as a medicine put the cup of sorrow to
my neighbor's lips. "
As a witness to this little incident, I had time
for thought and time to wish such example might
be held up before other boys and young men, aid
also that Mrs. Lee's thoughtless act might be a si.
lent reproof to other female friends whose conduct
would have been the same under similar circum
stances. With sorrowing heart she had watched
"the downward course of - one she loved, until his
haggard face and shattered form were hid in a
drunkard's grave, and yet she could thoughtlessly
lead another friend into that same rough path of
misery and disgrace! Oh boys ! if you only knew
whet a pang of agony the first tainted breathe
sends to the mothers heart, when it is breathed
from lips she thought as innocent of such a vice
as they were when they said "Our Father" by
her knees, you would never, never have yielded
to the first temptation—you would never tamper
with what may bring the mother's head in sorrow
to the grave.
If you touch it once to show 'your manliness
among your companions—if from a fear of •ridi
cule—or for a medicine even, unless seriously ill,
you do not know where that first slip will lead
you. James' rule is the best, the only one. by
which you can be guided with safety. —North

A BRAVE BOY
For the information of some of our young read
ers, we would mention that Holland, or the 'King
dom of the Netherlands, is the most level part of
Europe, and much of its surface is lower than
the sea, which is prevented from overflowing the
land by vast dykes, or embankments.
There Was once a little Hollander, who, though
a very child in years, saved many of, his country
men from destruction. The legend, for history
has hardly stooped to chronicle the deed, informs
us that this lad, on his , return from school, passing
along a sequestered road and' looking, With child
like curiosity, at a great dike, saw, ' breaking
through, a small stream of water, which, as it
oozed, carried away some particles of the bank.
It was the small beginning of what might beta
frightful end—some such catastrophe as sweeps
away, before its relentless tide, our southern homes.
The hoy had simply present to his mind the, sense
of danger; before he could reach assistance it
might be too late, and he felt that the remedy was
with him, and must be promptly applied. Our
hero left the highway, and elaMbering to the spot,
planted himself in the very breach of danger, and
thrust his little hand into the increasing aperture;
to his icy he found - it closed the avenue, and all
I was right. A few hours, it Worst, .be deemed
would 'bring some passer-by to his , relief.; 'but
though he strained'eyeballs and hearing, no way
farer greeted his senses..,. The evening would sure
ly find same stray wanderer, or perchance they
might be passing on the opposite side and not per
ceive him. He tried his voice, but this soon failed
him, and night came on; to him, brave boy,
,
"The night came on alone."
As darkness closed around him; we can well
imagine tears found their way doWo his cheeks.
Doubtless, too, there came lefore'itu the image
of home—of the waiting brothers and sisters, the
anxious parents. With that thought would come
the recollection of the lesson of piety received
from a mother's lips; of the prayers she had taught
him on her knee; and to his cry for 'help and
strength would succeed a holy and abiding trust.
All unused to such exposure—wearied, hungered,
strained with the compulsion of . his attitude, his
little arm paining and swelling—all these in
creasing through the long watches of that night,
what else was his support? No mere animal en
durance could hare sustained this ; anguish for
half that time; and yet, till daylbreak 'and search
ing friends brought relief, this faithful sentinel
withstood it all ! When recovered from this and
the peril of succeeding sickness, he was asked if,
during that long night, he had felt .no fear? His
answer tells of true patriotism: "'No, no I I knew
God would preServe me for preserving others." •

THE ROMAN STATES•
Tin parrs GOVERNMENT UNIVERSALLY DE-
TESTED--GENERAL LAMORIOIERE-.-THE IRISH
BRIGADE.
The accounts recently brought home by the
numerous Englishmen who have wintered at
Rome are not a little remarkable. Generally
speaking, nothing . like unanimity can be expected
in suclitestimonies. But now, for once, all are
agreed as to what they have seen, and, whether
in grief, or in joy, or in surprise, furnish us with
a- singularly consistent story of the condition of
feeling in the imperial city.
They report that, with the exception of persons
immediately connected with the papal Court, and
of a small circle of religious devotees, the whole
population of Rome speak of the Pope's govern- ,
ment with a vehemence of detestation not to be
imagined out of Italy. There is now no mistake
about the extent of the disaffection, for it is
perfectly outspoken. Ever since the papal admi
nistration despatched every man at its - command •
into Umbria and the March of Ancona, the police
of Rome and of the territory on. the Mediterrane-"
~an is exclusively kept by the French; but, the
French, though they scruple not to. put down the
smallest disturbance, are too much committed to
the Italian cause to punish, the effervescence of
words, and indeed, for the Most part, appear to
sympathize heartily with the impudence which
they are themaelves curbing. Die' wretehedneas
of their condition compared with that of the
North Italians, the childishness mixed , with op
pressiveness of the pope's system, the cupidity of
the; superior grades of the priesthood, and the
antiquated foolishness of administration and Jaw, I
are themes descanted upon to the English travel
ler, not only by the, artists, lawyers, and men of
letters, who were never supposed particularly well
affected to their sacerdotal - rulers, but by the
'artisan who does a job in his apartments, by the
porter whn carries his luggage in the streets, by
the shopkeeper who bargains with him across the
counter, and sometimes—though only-when he is
thought to be a "Puseista," and therefore compa
ratively safe—by the priest who is making a mild
attempt at his conversion. The determination of
the democracy of the priesthood to side with Italy
rather than with the pope, is,. in fact, becoming
less disguised every day; and it is a curious
tribute to the inefficiency of the repressive system,
that, whereas in Piedmont Proper the majority
of the priests have always adhered to the Ultra
montane canse, the exact reverse is occurring in
those countries in which tyranny has• had its
longest lease, and the bulk of the Tuscan and
/Einilian priesthood .:a;e open Constitutionalists.
It is, too, exceedingly remarkable that with the
aspiration of the pope's subjects for freedom and
brotherhood with Italy, there .mingles no alloy of
selhsh fear for the imperial supremacy of Rome.
Rome has mu eh to lose by almost any pelitical
ehane* Which alters her existing relations to the
rest tif Italy. Those who have attempted to_re
concile her to her present subjugation have not
failed to remind her that, if the pope quits her or
ceases to be a sovereign, she will sink into a more
populous and accessible Palmyra, a city of ruins;
and it is certainly true that, besides the ordinary
complacency of a metropolitan - population, -the
Romans have a tolerably firm conviction that
their city is the queen and mistress of the world.
Strong, therefore, indeed must be the feeling
which,makes them perfectly ready to run all the
risks of a future which is almost certain to dinii-
Dish, the "brilliancy of their position, and' which
promises, for its immediate consequence, to post,
pone, them to the citizens of a - semi barbarous
Turin. Of their willingness to face 'all 'Chances
there is not a shadow of doubt. They limit their
present desires to the union'of Italy in.a : single
kingdom with. Victor Emmanuel as king. Not a
soul seems to desire anything• beyond one consti
tutional monarchy for the entire peninsula.
It is worth while to notice the state of Roman
opinion on one or twopoints, because the ignorant
enthusiasm of the. pope's partisans in various
parts of the World hue had a share in forming; the
impressions which even just minded and candid
men have received on the subject. Persons at a
distance from Italy have spoken with- somere
, spect of General Lamoriciere's proffer of his
services to the pope. It seems to have been
_generally considered that very highly wrought re
ligions devotion prmnpted an act of generous, if
ill-directed self-sacrifice. Cat chevaleresgue,
mail c'cst fon, is said to' have been the remark of
the emperor of the French. 'We have had no
means of ascertainiii,g - the correctness of thecon
struction put upon Latuorieiere's conduct at
Home, but it is assuredly there believed that he
accepted the command as -.a way of escape from
extreme' pecuniary embarrassment. --His appoint--
ment has not, therefore added particularly to'the
. respect feltfor the, .pope's .goyernment„por has it
succeeded in making it a whit the more feared.
The contempt for the pope's scitldiers' is deeper, 'if
possible, than ever; and the Romans are fully
sure to render the ultiniate oyerthrow of hiel;b
ternment a' matter of certainty, they took it in
encouraging the formation. of an- Irish brigade.
It is - difficult to find words- strong..enough -to ex
press"•the disgust and -disdain which have been
excited in the people of the .Romanestates by, the
sight of the Irish "recruits who have. hitherto, been
seen •in Italy. Any licitly acqaainted
,with the
Roinan character might have predicted ,this a
yriori. The Roman is, as we have said, never
otherwise than pretty Well'Satisfied Y With
'and is apt at all times to regard inidiguers'in rge
ateral is barbarians. This feeling has many diverse
sources, but one principal one is the belief that
foreign:-artists cannot find 'specimens of ;humanity
fit to be transferred to canvass unless .they come
to-Rome. Now, •though • O'Optinell had once the
assurance , to assert the contrary, the Irish peasant
is certainly, riot in ,general model of, physical

extremity of the Euxine, the measureless loathing

.:their own sake, and not for the sport or edification
of the Catholic world. That he, is perpetualy at
war, with this aspiration is the pope's, misfortune,
but the attempt to suppress it by an Irish brigade
is one of those acts of madness which heaven sends
before destruction. His Irishnien will doubtless
fight well enoueh for him if well drilled, well fed,
carefully kept from strong liquors, perpetually
preached' to, and occasionally flogged; but, for all
that, they are the dearest bargain he ever had on
his hands.

OUR NATIONAL QUICKSTEP.
We remember once to have been scoffed at by a
musical friend for asserting that, of all national
airs, Yankee Doodle was the most inspiriting, and
that as a composition it deserved to take rank
among the highest, of such melodies, having no-
thing ridiculous about, it except its unfortunate.)
name. It is some satisfaction to see how enthu
siastically this opinion is endorsed in a late volume i
of travels entitled "A Run through Europe," by
Mr. Benedict, 'A popular lawyer of New York,—
and by, the way, the author of one of the most
agreeable and instructive books of the kind that
has been issued this season. .
Mr. Benedict says : "I remember when it was
fashionable to laugh, at Yankee Doodle as a vulgar
air, written to make fun of our extempore soldiers
of the olden time. How it was written by Dr.'
Shackburg, and given to our soldiers, as a cele

ADVERTISEMENTS.
THE StrADATSCHOOL
/PHIS is a Weekly Religious Paper, published by the
Amitticatt SUNDAY-SCOOOLIama, at the very low
price of '
ONE DOLLAR .A YEAR.
It is designed for P/ouricrs, TEACHERS, and all who are
engaged or interested in the religious training of the
young., It is 11180 an excellent FAMILY PAP a:
A portion of the Sunday-Sehool Times is occupied with
NARRATIVES and other matter particularly interesting
••to young persons. Teachers will find in it much that
:they will like to read to their elasses,—intereating mat
ter prepared to their hands and such as they cannot find
elsewhere. For the'same reason, members of the Bible
classes,-and the older sdhOlars generally, will be greatly
benefited by the perusal of this paper.
The Sunday-School Times has, every week, a column
or more of the choicest matter selected from the
NOON PRAYER MEETINGS,
which are so interesting to all classes of Christians.
Besides a lirge amount of general religious intelh
gence, the Minday=School Times contains all the recent
Sunday-school news. It reports all'the important CON
VENTIONS of Sunday-school teachers. It discusses
the questions which Most interest and perplex teachers
•and parents, respecting the various methods of reli
gious training fgp the young, the means of gaining the
attention and thTaffectione of children, and especially
of sec.uring their conversion and bringing them to Christ.
The subject of MISSION-SCHOOLS for cities and of
Sunday-school missionary work for-the interior, is tho
roughly canvassed. Indeed, there is hardly a topic of
practical importance to any who are interested in the
subject of religious edu - eation, which is not here brought
-under. consideration from week to - week. No teacher,'
no parent, should be .wi thou t it.
The SiindaP-SehOol Times has been the direct means,
Without any other agenty, of establishing Sunday
schools in neighborhoods where , none existed before,
and of giving life to other schools which were languish
ing. it is the• testimony of hundreds of superintendents,
.that-they have found their schools reviaing from the time
that this paper began to circulate among Melt teachers and
tiethe families of their congregtztion.

RELIG C
lOUS OTROVERSY
4s . entirely eiseluded from this piper. The Sunday-School
Times does not. even reply to its own assailants. Its
only answer to attacks, is to labor more industriously
to make simper, which shall be Worthy of the patron
•age of ,warin-hearted, workinc Christians, and which
shall breathe throughout the spirit of meekness and love.
'l'lle"ConduCtors of thieliaper endeavor to remember,
!that thelrhat end of all Christian'effort is to bring men
to atrial. They aim,. accordingly, to, put into every
number of the paper soinething . which shall have for its
'direct object the conversion of souls. `Large-hearted
.Christians, who are seeking . , the means of doing good,
would, it is believed, do an important service, and per
haps be the Means of many conversions, by 'subscribing
for copies of this paper for younger persons of their
acguaintarice. Men largely engaged in manufactures
might thus confer a lasting benefit upon their anpren
.hces or workmen.
