TWILIGHT DREAMS.
/distress Edith, in the twilight,
From her orimeon-onshioned chair
in the oriel window gazette
With a pensive, listless air,
Over lawn and over terrace,
With the tints of sunset dyed—
Over park and over meadow,
All her own those acres wide.
_Dame Rebecca, staid duenna,
Knits and mks, and nods and knits
Master Arnold, patient limner,
At his easel thoughtful sits,
Altering here, and there retouching
Mistress Edith's pictured face--
Heedless, in his deep abstraction,
Dow night draweth on apace.
NoW he sighs and drops the palette—
Art indeed can do no more;
Now farewell this sweetest labor !
Master Arnold's task is o'er.
Sighs he then again so deeply,
Mistress Edith looks around,
Dame Rebecca knits no longer,
Sunk in slumber too profound.
"All a-dreaming !" qnoth the lady,
" Let me break the sleepy spell;
Master Arnold, be tby Visions
Sad or joyful, prithee tell ?"
"Dreamer i, indeed!" he sayeth,
As in wizard's magio glass,
O'er this canvas dimly floating,
Changeful moods have seemed to pass
"Hazel eyes, there glancing softly,
Mocking, wondering looks have worn;
Rosy lips there smiling kindly,
Curl'd in angry, haughty scorn;
And the head, so regal ever,
With a geituro sternly cold,
Seem'd to warm the humble limner
He presumptuous grew and bold.
"Then the dream, a moment changing,
In the brightness of its smile,
As Inunn'd me, honor's promptings
Were forgotten for awhile;
Till a gnome his withered fingers
Rudely o'er the canvas spread—
Wealth his name—and at his presence
All my hopes and wishes fled."
Once again the toiling artist—
This wild dream shall come no more,
And the portrait of my lady
Wears the look it wore before.
Madam, see, my work is ended—"
sinks his voice, his face grows pale,
Twilight deepens into darkness
While he falters through his tale.
Mistress Edith—turning towards him
Cheeks where smiles and blushes blend—
Whiep'reth, "I, too, have been dreaming,
Dreaming I had won'a—friend !
And that, while the gold disdaining
That has cast o'er lover's eyes,
Mammon's glamor, one approach'd me
Who believed my heart a prize.
One—who, worldly motives spurning,
• By affection's holy light,
And his own unselfish wishes,
Readeth mine—and readeth right.
Is this but an idle fancy ?
Ah, indeed, I cannot tell
Waken, dame! for Master Arnold
Waits to bid us both farewell."
Dame Rebecoa yawns and wakens,
Seising Mistress Edith's hand—
" Must I go?" asks Master Arnold,
4, I obey thy least command!"
Dame Itebeaos calls for tapers,
But they come a moment late—
One long kiss by twilight stolen
Sealeth Mistress Edith's fate.
A BIBLE VIEW OF SLAVERY
BY HON. AMOS KENDALL.
We take the following from the Nat ion
al Intelligencer, in which paper it appear
ed as one of a series of .Letters to the
President.'
To .dbrahani Lincoln, President of the
United Sta es
RESPEOTED SIR :-My object in these
letters, be it distinctly understood, is not
to commend slavery as a desirable insti
tution, nor to mitigate in the least the
crime or the penalty of the Southern re
bellion i but it is, by the light of truth,
to disarm, in some degree, a set of North-
ern fanaties, whose insane hatred of slav
ery make them equally hostile to our
glorious Constitution. It is to show the
honest people of the free States that, as a
political question, they are not responsible
for it, and have no rightful control over it,
and that, as a moral question, there is
nothing in it which justifies their inter
ference by virtue of any higher law'
than the Constitution of their country.—
Rebel masters may be divested of their
right to the labor of their slaves as a
punishment for their treason, just as far
as they may be divested of other analagous
rights, and no farther ; but for the United
States to abolish the institution because
individual slaveholders head the rebellion,
would be as gross an usurpation as a
sweeping act to divorce all wives from
their husbands and free all children from
their parents in all the slaveholding States
for the same reason.
Not from any other motive than to
bring home more vividly to the minds of
the reader the Bible truths developed in
my last letter, 1 address myself to a Rev
erend representative of a class.
I say to him, do you, in common with
all or most Christian teachers recognize
Noah as a prophet of God who spoke by
inspiration ? If so, it was God • himself
who doomed the descendants of Ham to
perpetual servitude. If, therefore, slav
ery be a sin, God in this ease is responsi
ble for it ; and when you attempt on that
ground to rescue the African from slavery,
you assume to be more wise and just than
God ! Is it not so
Abraham bought servants with This
money, and had hundreds born in his
house.' He was a special favorite with
God, who not only heaped blessings upon
him, but chose him to be the father of his
peculiar people, and the progenitor of the
Saviour of mankind.
Yon denounce the buying of men and
women with money as sinful, and its toler
ation in our country as a great national
sin,' which has brought down upon us the
judgment of Heaven. Abraham did the
same thing, and Heaven showered bless
ings upon him. Our fathers and brothers
did the same thing, and were blessed as
Abraham was, until the reformers of God's
moral law, by their impious assumptions,
disturbed the peace of the country, and
aided in bringing down upon it the calam
ities under which it now mourns.
You denounce slavery as a sin. God
says, (Exodus, 21, 2.) If thou buy a
Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve.'
That is slavery, or involuntary servitude,
by the command of God. Who- knows
best what is sin, you or God

man cannot alienate his liberty. If so,
this voluntary slave, after he has become
so voluntarily, may change hiOnind and

But if he accepts 'his freedom at the
end of six years, his sons and daughters,
if born of a wife given him by his master,
(doubtless herself a slave,) shall be her
master's;' and he shall go out by himself.
In other words, they shall not be free on
the seventh year, but shall remain slaves
forever. This is God's order. Is it a sin,
Reverend Sir
Yon say there cannot be ownership in
man. God says the woman and sons and
daughters in this case 'shall be her 'mas
ters !'
In the 21st chapter of Exodus, after
directing that if a master beat his slave to
death be shall be punished, God says,
verse 21: Notwithstanding, if he con -
tinues a day or two he (the master,) shall
not be punished, for he (the slave,) is his
money.' Is not a man's money his pro
perty You, Reverend Sir, say that a
man's slave is not his property. God says
he is ; which shall a Christian believe ?
I would like to hear you preach a sermon
from these words of scripture, For he is
his money.'
Thus saith the Lord, in Leviticus 25,
44, Both thy bondmen and thy bondmaids
which thou shalt have shall be of the
heathen that aro round about you ; of
them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmai
dens.' Give us a sermon on this text also,
and show us how acts which God expressly
authorizes can be sinful.
Thus saith the Lord,' in the next verse,
Moreover of the children of the strangers
that do sojourn among you, of them shall
ye buy and of their families that are with
you, which they begot in your land, and
shall be your possession.'
Another good text, Reverend sir, from
which 1' should like to bear you deduce the
conclusion not only that buying these chil
dren was a sin, but that' possession' here
does not mean 'property.'

and described its leaders. After having
emphatically directed Timothy to teach
servants to honor and serve their masters,
I.Timothy, 6-12, he adds, in verses 3,4,
5, the following picture of anti-slavery
teachers, viz : If any man teach other
wise, and consent not to wholesome words,
even to the words of our Lord Jesus Christ,
and to the doctrine which is according to
godliness, - he is proud, knowing nothing,
but doting about questions anu strifes of
words, whereof cometh envy, strife, rail
ings, evil surmisings, perverse disputings '
of men of corrupt mends and destitute of
the truth, supposing that gain is godli-'
ness : from such withdraw thyself.'
This passage, be it remembered, follows
directly after aul's injunction to Timothy
to servants to honor and serve their mas
ters, that the name of God and his doe
trine be not blasphemed ;' these things
teach and exhort," says he, and then pro
ceeds to say, if any man teach otherwise,'
&c., he is proud, knowing nothing,' &e.
Hence it appears that this description of
character was designed for just such anti
slavery teachers as yourself and your as
sociates of the present day. And - how true
the picture ! \% hat strife,' what a envy,'
what railings,' what evil surmisings,'
what ( perverse disputings' have your '
teaching of other doctrines produced ! Nay
more ; what hatred among Christians, what
divisions of churches ; what sectional an•
tipathies ; what excitement and commo-
Lions ; and, finally, what desolation, blood
shed and mourning have your unchristian
teachings aided in bringing upon our lately
powerful, prosperous and happy land!
And, not content with the aid you have
given traitors in involving your country in
a devastating civil war, you are now mov
ing earth and hell to prolong it, to render
it more bloody, and perhaps insure the
success of the traitors—certainly to afford
them the only chance of success—by con
verting the war for the Constitution into a
war against slavery. You are as hostile
to the Constitution as the rebels them
selves, and you prefer their success to the
preservation of the Government transmitted
to us by our fathers, simply because that
Government recognizes an institution
which God has sanctioned, and the rights
of masters and the duties of servants, as
prescribed by the apostles of Christ. In
short, you are not willing to live under a
Government which protects slaveholders

the venerable President, still frowning and
indignant.
Porter, whose sang froid has never for
a moment forsaken him, deploys all the re
source of his art.
Presently a superhuman flip, with an
aromatic form creaming over the edge of
the goblet, is the result of this effort. He
hands it respectfully, and with some anx
iety, to the President, on whose face ju
dicial thunder-clouds have been gathering.
The President tastes it gloomily. He

have not yet flashed forth any lightnings.
Porter, resigned, awaits the outburst.—
The President gazes wonderingly at his
glass. A general emollient expression
seems to glide o'er his fade, and smooths
the frowning brow.
The lips relax, and a smile seems about
to draw. He lifts the glass one more to
his lips, heaves a sigh, and puts it down.
The glass is empty !

The Woodcutter's Warning.
We hold much in common with other
professing christians ; our habits are gene
rally plain, in many respects resembling
the Friends, particularly as regards dress;
opposed to all superfluity in everything,
yet we are not always successful in our op
position. Our people are generally indus
trious, and frugal as a consequence, wealth
accumulates, pride follows almost as a
necessary consequence. Then is verified
the danger of riches, as the Saviour declar
ed. History assigned our origin in
Schwartzenau, Germany, to the year 1808.
Our first minister's name, the same author
ity says, was Alexaa - der Mack. The word
Tnnker,' or Dunker,' by which we are
known in history, we assume by way of con
venience ; yet we call ourselves ' German
Baptists,' or Brethren.'
How many persons, like the one spoken
of in the 4ollowing fable, rely upon their
neighbors and friends to do their work
whilst they themselves loaf around the
town,' in the shops of their more industri
ous neighbors, on the street corners and
various other places, discussing the char
acter of this man and that woman, whilst
their business at home is suffering for want
of attention. Finally, because no one else
will do the work for them, business dwin
dles away, and customers seek other places
of trade, and before the owner thinks of
saying I'll do it myself,' he is without
customers, and consequently without
means to replenish his stock in trade—
hopelessly ruined :
An old lark, who had a nest of young
ones in a field of corn, which was almost
ripe, was not a little afraid the reapers
would be set to work before her lovely
brood were fledged enough to be able to
remove from the place.
One morning, therefore, before she took
her flight to seek for something to feed
them with, my dear little creatures,' said
she, be sure, that in my absence you
take the strictest notice of every word you
hear, and do not fail to tell me as soon as
I come home.'
Some time afterE%fe . was gone, in came
the owner of the field, and his son. Well
George,' said he, this corn, I think, is
ripe enough to be cut down ; so, to-morrow
morning, go as soon as you can see, and
desire our friends and neighbors to come
and help us ; and tell them we will do as
much for them the first time they want us.'
When the old lark came back to her
nest, the young ones began to nestle and
chirp about her ; begging her, after what
they had heard, to remove them as soon as
she could.
what a
Hush,' said she, hold your silly
tongues, if the farmer depends upon his
friends and neighbors, you may take my
word for it that this corn will not be reap
ed to-morrow.' The next morning, there
fore she went out again, and left the same
order as before.
The owner of the field came soon after,
to wait for those he had sent for ; but the
un grew hot, and not a single man came
to help him. Why, then,' said he to his
son, 4 I'll tell you what, my boy, those
friends of ours have forgot us ; you must,
therefore, run to your uncles and cousins,
and tell them that I shall expect to see
them to-morrow early, to help us to reap.'
Well, this also the young ones told their
mother, as soon as she came home, and in
a sad fright they were. Never mind it,
children,' said the old one,.' for if that be
all, you may take my word for it that his
brethren and kinsmen will nut be so for
ward to assist him as he seems willing to
believe. But mark,' said she, ' what yon
hear the next time, and let me know with
out fail.'
The old lark went abroad the next day
as usual ; but when the poor farmer saw
that his kinsmen were as backward as his
neighbors why, then,' said he, since
your uncles and cousins so neglect us, do
you get a couple of good sickles against to
morrow morning, and we will reap the corn
ourselves, my boy.'
When, the young ones told their mother
this,'Now, my little dears,' said she, ' we
must be gone, indeed ; for when a man re
solves to do his work himself, you may de
pend upon it it will be done.'

Sethi:tie, by
•A. J. GLOSSBRENHER & CO.
A. J. GLOSSBRENNER.
FRANCIS J. MIND.
WILLIAM H. WELSH.
"Tee Ana" will advocate the principles and policy of
the Democratic party, and will, therefore, necessarily favor
the restoration of the Union as it was, and defend the
Constitution of the United States, and that of this Com
monwealth.
It will freely and fairly discuss all legitimate subjects of
newspaper comment, including, of course, and preeemi
neatly at this time, all questions connected with the
existing unhappy condition of our country.
It will fearlessly criticise the public acts of public ser.
oasts, and defend the legal and constitutional rights of in.
divldual citizens of sovereign States, against assaults from
any quarter.
It will seek to awaken the minds of the people to a
proper sense of the actual condition of the Republicto
present to them, truthfully, the fearful perils in which, we
stand as a nation—to exhibit the rusgnitude of the task
that is before them, if they would check our downward
progress—and to inspire them with patriotic determination
to apply 5111 ItIMEDT for our national ills.
; In brief, it will, in all things, aim to be the faithful ex
ponent of Democratic principles and to render itself
worthy to be an organ of the Democratic party, under
whose auspices our country prospered so long and so well.
The restoration of that party—the party of the Constitu
tion and the Union—to power, in the legislative and execu
tive governmental branches of the States and of the Union,
we believe to be necessary to avert anarchy, and the utter
ruin of the Republic. To contribute to that restoration
will be oar highest aim.
The News, Literary, Commercial, and other departments,
will receive due attention, and will be so conducted as to
make "Tao AGO" worthy of the support of the general
reader.
44 - The many difficulties now surrounding an enter-
prise of the magnitude of that in which the undersigned
are engaged, require them to appeal to the public for a
generous support, and ask for "Tex Ann" a liberal patron•
ate and extended circulation
. _ . .
Tho present state of the preparatory arrangements war
rants the expectation, that the first number of the Daily
will appear before the close of the coming montb,. (Febru.
ary, 1863.) The Weekly will be issued soon thereafter.

OBEY'S LADY'S BOOK FOR 1883.
G
, GREAT LITERARY AND PICTORIAL YEAR.
The publisher of Godey's Lady's Hook, thankful to that
public which has enabled him to publish a magsaine for
the last thirty-three years of a larger circulation than any
in America, has made an arrangement with themost popu
lar authoress in this country—
MA JON IZARLAND,
Authoresa of ‘. /done," "Bidden. Path," "Moss Bide,"
"Nemesia," and g'
who will flindsh a-story for every number of the Lady's
Book for IBM This alone will place the ledy's Book in a
literary point of Tien far ahead of any other magazine.
Marion Harland writes for no other publication. Our other
favorite writers will all continue to furnish articles
throughout the year.
THE BEST LADI'S MAGAZINE IN THE WOELD, AND
is of that kind that can be recd aloud in the flimily
and the clergy in immense limbers are trobearibers for the
Book.

PAS AHEAD OP ANY FASHIONS IN EIIBAPH OR
Godey's is the only wcritin.the. world that gives' these
immense plates, and they are such as to have excited the
wonder of publishers and the public. The publication of
these plates cost
810,000 . M0R8., - -
than fashion,plates of the old style, and nothing but our
wonderfully large circulation enables us to give them.
Other magazines cannot afford It. We never spare money
when the public can be benefited.
These fashions may be relied on. Dresses may be made
after them, and the wearer will not subject herself to ridin
cubs, as would be the case if she visited the large • cities
dressed after the style of the plates given in some of our
so-called magazines.
OUR WOOD ENGRAVINGS,
of which we give twice orthree times as many as any other
magazine, are often mistaken for steel. They are so far
superior to any others.
- - -
Beware of them. Remember that the Lady's Book is the
original publication and the cheapest. If you take Godey,
you want no other magazine.
Everytblog that Is useful or ornamental In a home can
be found in Godey.

PETERSON'S MAGAZINE
THE BEST AND CHEAPEST IN THE WORLD FOR lADIE4I
This popular monthly Magazine contalue .nearly 1000
pages; from 25 to 30 steel plates; and about 800 Wood

published anywhere. The editors are Mrs. Ann S. Stephens,
author of ".Mary Derwont," "Fashion and Famine;" and
Charles J. Peterson, author of " Kate Aylesford," " The
Valley Farm," etc., etc., and they are assisted by Mrs.
Denison, Frank Lee Benedict, by the author of "'Busy Ile
Diary" by T. S. Arthur, E: L. Chandler Moulton, Mehita
ble Holyoke, Virginia F. Townsend, Carry Stanley, Caro
line E. Fairfield, Ellen Ashton, F. L. Mace, E. Dewees, A.
'L. Otis. and all the most popular female writers of America.
In addition to the usual number of stories, there, will 'be
given in 1882, Four Original and Copy-righted Novelets,
viz:
THE JACOBITE'S DAUGHTER; a_Tale of the '45,
By Mrs. Ann S. Stephens.
ANN INTHROP'S ENGAGEMENT; a Tale of today,
By Carry Stanley.
THE MURRAYS OF MURRAY HOUSE; aTale °MO,
