The heavens, thy wondrous works deolan, That thou, great Architect, art there; And, still, with all my watchfulness, I never once have seen thy face. Among the stars thy hand bath wrought, And worlds into existence brought; With skill oonenmmate all things planned, Anti, still, I never eaw thy hand. With fingers soft, a plant I touch, Thy fingers first. have made it such— As I heheld it, frail and fair, And, still, thy fingers are not there. At thy command the oceans roll Their wild waves round from pole to pole, Submissive, too, unbroken keep Thy pathway o'er the stormy deep. rve stood upon the ooenn's shore. Yellen 411 was storm and wild uproar, ltut tempests wild, or oalw, serene, Thy footsteps there I've never seen. When gazing on the midnight cloud, its thunders belching long and load— Thy yoke hath me most deeply stirred, And still thy !aloe I never beard. At tithes I've seen the flashing light Turn back to day, the ,darkeet night; And thought it then, thy glancing eye, Across the pathway or the sky. Does not thy truthful word deelere, The eyes of God run everywhere Throughout the world, to all—to met And, still, thy eyes I never see. Mysterious! Lord, thou art to me, I see thee not, and still I see Thee everywhere, in everything; A wondrous God, a glorious King. Well, let the mystery than remain, Thy glory still thou wilt maintain, if much or little be revealed Of all the mighty mysteries sealed. To everything I still shall see Thy hand, thy heart, great Deity. And hear thy voice, and Mow where Thy footsteps echo in the air. THE CHILDREN ON THE PLAINS. The Messrs. Carters have published a little book with this title, which we are quite sure will prove a great favorite with American Children, and those of other countries perhaps too. It is the story of a brother and sister who started off with their mother to cross the great plains in the western part of our eonntry on the way to Califor nia to look after- their father who had gone to that country some time previous. On the *ay the mother died of cholera, and the Emigrant party greatly discouraged turned back; but the two children anxious to see their father and to bear him the mother's dying message persisted in the journey and executed it, amid many instructive and interesting incidents, which are said to be, 'in the main, true. Below we give one of the chapters, beaded. SUNDAY. Curtis was waked the next morning by hearing Ruth singing, "'Welcome, sweet day of rest," in her own cheerful way. "Why it is Sunday, I declare !" said Curtis to himself. The thought was not a pleasant one to him,' for he had made up .hie mind to go on, whether .Juhn was able to bear the harness or not. "Ruth," was Curtis's morning salutation, "I think we had better go on to-day. We took one day of rest yesterday. It really makes very little difference whether we sit here under the trees, or sit in the wagon; we can be as Sundayish when ,we are moving as when we are at rest.' " I am sure you are not in earnest," said Ruth, anxiously. " You know what mother thought "about keeping boly . the Sabbath day." " I really don't see any difference. You can read to me if you like, along the road; and we can't go to church any way, so where's the odds 7" "We are commanded to let dm cattle rest on the Sabbath day," said Ruth. "It would not be resting for the poor mules to'be dragging along to day, just as usual." "The poor -mules, indeed :" Look at them, now," said Curtis, laughing. The mules were evidently enjoying themselves to their heart's content. Even Old Joe was roll ing away on the grass, then indulging himself in some bounds that must have reminded, him of the days of his youth. John looked on enviously, but did not seem in a mood to join his companions in their merry making. "John, at least, needs another day's rest," urged Ruth. " Pshaw I" was. Curtis's reply. "Brother," said Ruth, decidedly, "you-are older and stronger than I am, and wiser in many wile. In most things I think it right, to yield to you, but now I muse have my way. I should not dare to be here, in the midst of so many dangers, if I did not trust in the God who watches over all who love him and try to serve him.— How could I expect him to watch over me, if I were breaking one of his commandments 7 Brother, I will not go on to-day. I am sure you will not go and leave me alone. Of course not 1" said Curtis, crossly. ° This was not a pleasant beginniug for Sabbath morning. This was a sad contrast with the joint prayer of the evening beforo, which had sent Ruth's heart. Curtis had little to say to Ruth through the morning. He wandered about picking strawberries, or mating envious eyes at the trains of travellers which passed along the distant road. • Ruth, meanwhile, had her own Sabbath joy. She. knew that she had done her duty, and she felt mire that the loving eye of God was upon her. Iter simple hymns she was sure would be as welcome to the, heavenly King as if she wen joining in the singing of . the ‘ 4 great congrega tion. _ Ruth's Bible was fall of comfort to her that day, add' ai she read of the •New Jerusalem, she fancied she coed' feel Seine of the joy of the glad home, where tears shall be forever wiped away, Ruth was too happy to mind Curtis's sullen looks when he , came at ,mid day to share the simple repast made for him. "Row pleasant it is that the sun is under a cloud just now, " said Ruth, cheeril* A cloud th at's likely to give us a wetting," said Curtis, looking anxiously about him. "We must take shelter in the wagon." The storm rose very fast. Tlin black clouds rolled up the sky, like smoke before the breeze. The distant thunder muttered, then came nearer and nearer, while the incessant lightning glared fearfully over the landscape. The wind broke saddeely - on the stillness. A fierce, wild hurl.- cana it proved, sweeping all before it. Tall trees bent, bowed and were cracked asunder. The rain pared ih turrets _ " , vet y ursel f up, Ruthy ; you will be wet thro , , , 1 s 'd Curtis, kindly. Ile gave his sister k ha. his blankets, d then be peered out from the front of the wagda. Curtis bad never before known what it is to suffer agonizing fear, Now he fieeeped.te himself to stand is , the presence of an offended God.— What would become of his soul if it were suddenly ce ll e d into the presence+ of its Maker ! This thought filled him with terror. Even as he asked himself this question the lightning streamed down from the skies, and filled site Wholc air with iidectrio , light. The thunder roared with.deafen i lg r P a ea d l s. f ro i e t h e wagon, was Under that Arco the splittetlellt:fre:m° Il t i o f p -7 'to * root. affrighted mules bad taken refuge. One of thcm dropped dead upon the spot. Yes, immovable forever stiff in death he lay, while the torrents of rain poured down upon him. Curtis was awe-struck. Such might have been his fate, but for the mercy of God. Curtis had been softened, touched, moved to better things at his mother's grave, but death had not even then seemed so near to him as it did in the midst of that fearful storm. Ruth was lying in the wagon, very quiet, in the midst of the wild uproar. She felt herself safe hi the hands of Him who " ruletli the heavens," and "taketh up the isles as a very little thing." " Rath," said Curtis—" Ruth, are you fright ened?" "God is with us. If we trust in him, we can not be harmed," replied Ruth, solemnly. " But we may be killed. That last flash'struck down 'poor old Joe It might have been one of us," said Curtis, quickly. " Death cannot harm us, if we trust in Christ," was Ruth's reply. Curtis was silent. Ah ! how he felt his need of Christ at that moment ! How was he, a poor sinful boy, to stand before God, unless forgiven for Christ's sake ? He felt the full meaning of a Saviour, a Reedemer, then ! To that Saviour he fled for refuge, as-to 'h'is only hope. The storm was passing by, even while the earnest prayer to God for fiogiveness .and an homble, penitent spirit, was rising from the heart of the conscience-stricken boy. Swiftly as the clouds had gathered, they sped away, and, the snoshine again made gladthe 'landscape. Curtis and Ruth -were thoroughly drenched in spite of the precautions they had taken. "It is well we are not on the prairie, where we could get no wood," said Curtis, as he with diffi culty kindled a fire with some fallen timber and broken branches. A great roaring fire was at length made, and near it, and in the pleasant sunshine, Ruth and Curtis hung up their valuables to dry. "I shall never forget this Sabbath," said Curtis, very soberly, when they were .once more comfortable, and the sun was setting clear in the west." " I shall never forget this Sabbath. I shall never ask you to break the Lord's Day again, Ruth." " Won't you?" said Roth, with one of her sweetest smiles. "Shall we sing, now, ' Softly now the light of day ?' " Ruth ,had not dared to ask Curtis to sing with `her before—he had never seemed to like to slim hymns; but now his voice joined with hers, and both hearts were glad, as they sang,— "Softly now the light of day Fades upon my sight away; Free from care, from labor free, Lord, I would commune with thee "Thou, whose all-pervading eye " Naught escapes, without, within, Pardon ";each infirmity,. Open fault and secret sin. ti Soon from me the light of day *hall forever pass away ; Then, from, sin and sorrow free, Take me, Lord, to dwell with thee." HOME CONVERSATION. Children hunger perpetually for new ideas, and the most pleasant way of reception is by the voice and the ear,not the eye and the printed page. The one mode is natural, the other artificial. Who would not rather listen than read ? We not unfrequently pass by in the papers a frill report of a lecture, and then go and pay our money to hear the self-same words uttered. An audience will listen closely from the beginning to the end of an address which not one in twenty of those present would read with the same attention. This is emphatically true of children. They will learn with pleasure from the lips of parent's what they deem it drudgery to study in the books; and even if they have the misfortune to be deprived of the educational advantages which they desire, they cannot fail to grow up intelligent if they enjoy in childhood and youth the privilege of listening daily to the conversa tion of intelligent people. Let parents, then, talk much and talk well at home. A father who is habitually silent in his own house may begin many respects, a wise man; but he is not wise in his silence. We sometimes see parents who are the life of every company which they enter, dull, silent, uninteresting at home among their children. if they have not mental activity and mental stores sufficient for both, let them first provide for their own household. Ireland exports beef and wheat and ,lites on potatoes; and they fare as poorly who reserve their social charms for companies abroad, and keep their dulness for home consumption. It is better to instruct children and make them happy at borne, than it is to charm strangers or amuse frienda. A silent house is a dull place for young people, a place from which they will escape if they can. They will talk or think of being "shut tip" there; and the youth who does not love home is in danger. Make home, then, a cheerful and pleasant spot. Light it up with cheerful, in structive conversation. Father, mother, talk your best at home. THE ITOST INTERESTING SIGHT. Mr. George 11. Stuart, recently returned from a visit to the revifal scenes of Great Britain, narrated the following as the most interesting of the many things he saw in his visit. We quote from the report of the Sunday-school Times. I have been often asked, what was the most interesting thing you have seen on 'the other side of the water? Truly, I have seen a good deal that is 9f interest to the Christian. These public meetings, accounts of which you have no doubt received, were indeed remarkable. Sometimes 3,000, 4,000, and 10,000 were present at one time. In, the gardens of Belfast, On one occassion there could net have been less, by the tickets taken at the door, than 50,000 people assembled; 30,000 around the main platform; and twenty other platforms scattered through the gardens, at which the worship of God, singing, prayer, and exhortation, were constantly going on, at such a distance from each other .as not to cause confu sion or interruption. But these vast gatherings were not the moat instructive scenes I witnessed while away. The _most delightful scene, one which most deeply impressed my: heart, I .wit nessed in the church of the Rev. Dr. Snowell, at the dose of a blessed prayer meeting. hundreds were scattered all over the church after the electing, at the invitation of the leader, engaged in earnest religious conversation with the uneon verted. Just as Drs.,Leyburn and 'Murray, and Myself, were about to retire after the public exercises were over and when my ministerial brethren who preceded me bad nearly reached the vestibule door, my attention was attracted to two little girls, sitting at the head of one of the pews, engaged in the deepest conversation. The, younger was, about thirteen years old, the eldor appeared to be fourteen or fifteen years of age.— At the head of the pew next sat the elder girl, while the younger sat on the inside. As I was passing in the aisle by the pew, I overheard a solemn word of exhortation from the lips of the younger girl, who as I found, had given her heart to Christ about six weeks before, while the other had not yet become a Christian. The words heard arrested my attention at once. I paused and my brethren came back. The little girl had bowed her head down solow that,she did not observe us, and we stood for nearly ten minutes listening to that young disciple preaching Jesus. It was truly a rich scene to our hearts. Drs. Leyburn and Murray said to me that they had never heard -such an exhortation, even from the lips of the ministers of Christ, as that little girl was pouring into the ears of her little neighbor at her side.— She was obeying the injunction of the minister, that all in- the house who. felt the love;of Christ burn - ink in their own bosons, shoild turn around 24intriratt rceolltferiat and tr, titegitt (6rattotli,ot. and speak to their unconverted friends or neigh bors. She spoke of Christ's love to her, of his' preciousness to her soul, and of the way. of salva tion. " Why," said she, "I a poor little girl, who have been a sinner for thirteen years only just came to him a few weeks ago, and the burden of my sins was removed, and now I am happy in the love of Christ." The elder' girl replied, " But I am a great sinner; I cannot go to Christ." "0, just come as you are now, give up your sins, and Christ will forgive you, and wash them all away." With great earnestness of manner did this little one plead with her friend to "come to Christ now, justas you are." We could not help when she had done conversing, spending a few moments with her. We each spoke words of kindness and love, and learned her history. It is most interesting indeed. We found in her hand a bundle of tracts. I asked her for one; and I brought it home with me as a memento merely of one of the most touching scenes I witnessed in my travels in Europe. THE LATE SCENES IN SYRIA Rev. H. H. Jessup, one .of the most able and useful of the missionaries in Syria has sent us the following very interesting portion of his diary, re lative to the late tragic) events,:—N. Y. World. This morning we received news from Damascus that Fuad Pasha had commanded the Moslem population to deliver up their,arrns and they had refused. It is supposed by manythat be will de ,_stroy the Moslem 4narter if they persist. To-day :we received four thousand pounds of sea bleak from the admiral of the English flect.,,ancd,,distri buted about one thousand pounds .to the hungry multitude. The rush of men, women, and chil dren. was fearful. We had their names written in lists, and as fast as they were called they crowded up to the paling behind which we were standing with the huge sack of biscuit, and we dealt it out by measure to each person. As they had no bags or baskets in which to carry the food, they pulled off their caps, girdles, and ragged coats, which answered every purpose. The sight of such Mul titudes .of poor wretches, clamoring for bread is . enough to melt one to tears, but somehow we be came so accustomed to the spectacle from day to day, that it produces but little .impression. Nor will it do for us, in this intensely hot weather, to give way to such feelings. So much depends upon our keeping well and strong, and able to help the suffering, that we are obliged to leave out of mind the more painful aspects of these shocking scenes. Just as we finished the distri bution this morning, about 3,000 people arrived from Damascus. Those who were Protestants came to us and the rest went to the quarantine premises, where the government is providing them with shelter and food. It is reported that Fuad Pasha intends to send all the remaining g Christians . out of Damascus in'order to take the Most decisive measures against the Itloslims. If thiS be true, we shall have an addition of not less than 13,000 to the already crowded population of Beirut, and their will be great danger of pestilence as well as famine. This morning I preached in Arabic, on Rege neration. The Arabic congregation was . large. We have men in . the audience frnin almostevery part of our mission field; and; notwithstanding the circumstances Which' have brought then here, :we can but thank, the Lord that, being here, we have the privilege of preaching to them. Mr. Ford preached in English, and. Dr: Thomson. in Arabic, at the afternoon service. Major ,Frazier, English political commissioner, was at the English service, as were several Scotch engineers from the Turkish men-ot-war. Nearly all the engineers in the Turkish navy are Seotelnen. This afternoon I met the assistant engineer (Mr. - Jones) from the admiral's ship Marlborough. The chief engineer (Mr. Yealland) was with him, and they came to inquire whether we have any prayer meetings on shore:...They_ are :praying rtreif,landliave , a, Bible class with the chaplain on board the - Marlborough; but, .out of..a company. numbering:l,2o.o told, they cannotget more than ten or twelve to attend -a-prayer !meeting.- - Thercan not attend 'cur English preaching at 11 A. M. on Sunday, as there is service on board at the same hour, Nut will gladly attend the Wednesday afternoon prayer meeting. I told them of the prayermeetings on board the North Carolina; in Brooklyn navyyard, and of the number of sailors' converted in the re cent revivals. It is refreshing in these , days, when we hear so nmeli of war, and see so much of naval armaments, to, find true-lioarted pray ing men. Some of the chaplains in the Ettgliah fleet are interesting Yesterday a Dutch frigate and two English -frigates arrived, and to-day a Sardinian "frigate is in. There is news from Damascus that Fuad Pa sha summoned the city council; or medjiis and, without inviting them to sit down, gave .diem: severe rebuke. He told them they had violated the Mahommedan religion, the Turkish law, and had placed the sultan in a position from which it would be difficult for him to extricate hititaelf. He then ordered them to go home, make out lists of the guilty parties'in the outbreak, stating that those who failed to do so, would be accounted guilty. He then -called the mufti and- kadi of the. city, and asked them what should be done with him who commits murder? One of them an swered, "He should be put to death;" the other answered, "A. hying man is bitter than a dead one." He then ordered their beards to be shaved off, and they to be cast into prison. Three hun dred others were also arrested. We hear that the - Christian population, still remaining in- the vi 'cinity of liasheiya, are in grad danger. Two of our Protestant native helpers are still in that re gion, uot being, able to, escape. The French com missariat officers, who arrived last week) are build ing ovens . for the use of the French troops, who arc expected pre many days. The Moslems are getting very much frightened,`and the Druzes in Lebanon are talking seriously of makings general stanibede - to region called -flei'ran,. Oast •of the Jordan, killing all the Christians as they go: This afternoon, instead of giving' bread to the hungry, we , gave money, allewmf,, each person,,,great and small, ;wo cents. More than two thousand re ; ceiVed money. We are saving the sea biscuit against time of need:' An Austrian frigate arrived to-day. There have been rumors afloat to-day that the French troops are not coming. We regard the storyus only a ruse, published by the French themselves in, order to keep the people here ciiiiet nod their arm actually. here. We hear from - Damascus that 1,000 perionlhaiehoen arrested: The gates are shut, and ''no one can go in or 'thit ivithout per mission. Sorne'of the plunder has`been recovered -from the Moslem houses. Mr. Crawford, the American missionary of the Associate Reformed , Church, who has been all this time in great peril at Gebrud, N. 11. of Damascus, has arrived in 'Damascus with an Algerine guard, and is to be 'in Beirut this week. -A. Moslem, in Damascus attempted to poison a number of Christi:main the castle, in order to get rid of the widow of one of his Christian creditors was was .killed in , the massacre. He sent her poisoned sweetmeats, and she am and died, as did seven others. The wretch has been arrested and will be punished: We dis tributed money to the usual number te-day. A Russian frigate arrived to-day. It is said that the French troopi were to leave Toulon on the 22d inst., in miderh i ttise they may be here by the 12th. There are now.vessels in port from eight ,nations--England, France, Russia, Sardi nia, Austria, Reiland, Groom, and Turlirey;-and Spain has ordered tiro vessels here; as seven Spa nish monks were killed in 'ThimaiMits. We have no. intimation of the coming - of any American ships of war, and just at this time, when they are needed more than ever, nothing can be heard of any coming. It is singularly policy our naval department seem to .have, of calling home the Mediterranean squadron before a new one is ready to supply its place. We have now one vessel in the Mediterranean, the Iroquois, which is at Na ples. This evening, after the usual daily distri bution of money at, the press;,the Eng,lish'prayer meeting: was-Iteld. Dr.' Bar'clay's. 'Engineer Jones was *tient, and After the meeting came up Bellew'', Saturday, Aug . . 4 Sunday, Aug. 5. Monday, Aug. 6 Tubstliy, Aug. 7 Wenesday; Aug. 8 and took tea with us. He says that ,the admiral has proposed to him to fit a large iron tank, with the capacity of 100 gallons, and send it on shore for us to use as a soup boiler for the sick and fee ble among these suffering people. The English people seem much interested in providing for the poor here, and jr. Byerly, who has come here as correspondent,t6 , the London . Times, will write to that paper `altirmending the cause of the poor here to all the English public. Mr. B. is unwell to-day, probably from over exertion in this in tensely hot weather. Multitudes of the people are falling sick, especially the children. Mary Bliss, daughter of Mr. Bliss, who lives next door, has a severe attack of ophthahnia, and little Sarah Ford is just recovering from the same disease. Another Austrian frigate is in. Several Turk ish vessels have arrived, bringing two new. Turk lab commissioners, to-co-operate with Feud Pasha. The English consul called upon them, and told them that if they do not take immediate measures for the protection of the Christians in the interior, he would lay the matter before the admiral, and use English troops to do it. They asked for two days, Baying that after that time the admiral could do as he wished, if they did not act to his satis faction. The alarmis increasing in Lebanon' again, and the Christians who remain among the Druses are fearing` another slaughter. Two chil dren of Protestint widows died to - day.:: Poor wo 7 men, their husbandsands , were killed in Hasheiya, and new their children are taken away. This evening, after sunset, I 'went down to the cemetery to be present ,at the - funeral of a British marine, who tifecto'n2beard cferie.of the - English - frigates. The chaplain 'eoried..the.esereises, and. the marines fired three voll43 4 over the grave of their comrade. It was an irepreasive secpe in the darkness, the light, of the , tlantern dimly .burning" shining upon the shadowy forms of the cypress trees, the bright uniform r and arms of the soldiers, and the faces of theLebinon refugees, who crowded around. and then j the sudden report of musketry as they fired their ' if. irewell shot ," and retired. .The weather is no ,growitig, oppretsively. warm. It is the first time hat any of us have spent the summer on the plain, 4n we naturally feel the heat, though less thari.l ex'. eted. .We are still .in' great un certainty with, egard -to the future of this land. A few weeks ; ;. ore of patient, waiting may reveal something of , hat-is. to occur, and where we are to be during t ! • coming winter, but now we know nothing about . , • Friday, Aug. ie.

This has, some show of truth, but adrrench army would be a foe such as the Druse.s liaN43. never yet dreamed of, and I doubt whether hey could stand a day. We have t e positive intelli nee to-day that the French are comino. soon ' 2 006 in number , with the assent t 4 I I 3 , ._, r , of the great wers in Europe. M e have often in times past dreaded the thought of having Syria in the heeds of - the French; biit-now•things have p,(j reached such a ass that.it will he a mercy to have any foreign power take hold of the/Cge reins; and curb .these ;fanatical people, wild with unre strained license, and intoxicated, with blood. Ge neral Trochu is binning with 12,600 men in a fei days, and then :2,000 more soon after. The Eng- HA are to furnish only' a naval' force. It is'said that the English officers in the harbor feel rather :chagrined at ,Ming ordered to land marines, of whom they have only a few hundred, when the French are, coming with 25,000 -of, their regular army. There spews to be a fear among many of the English ,that, when the French have once landed in Syriapthey will not soon leave it. In my opinion, they ought not to leave it. Turkish rule is so utterly rotten, that these Wild popula tions of Syria will never, and can never, be con trolled by it.

News frcimiDataasens that Faad Pasha had exe ,ctited the ,Mosletji who poisoned the people in the castle, and thebtosletunin' turn had killed another Christian. Mr, Cyril Graham,_ the Oriental tra *eller, has gone from Dainascus to Hasbeyia with 20,000 piastres, from Fund Pasha, to relieve and plObably bring aay the feNireMaining Christians there. A large number of the guilty Moslems in Damascus have "been condemned' to death, and many others haVu fled to other cities in Syria. The Mohammedans in Damascus threaten to kill a Christian for every. Moslem who shall be executed by. Find I'asha.., llattem look more ,serious in that direction. It is doubted even by many whe ther Flied Pasha can trait Turkish soldiers to pe nish Moslems. luseems as though it were ordered in 'Providence thatuffairs in Damascus should con inue unsettled until the foreign troops are actual ly here, in order that their action may be the more decisive when it is, taken.
