BT EDWARD C. J02f153, A. it.
It is possible that the r.iinbow ia t.ho Heavens
suggested the incipient idea of the arch io
building. \
Arch of the Heavens! who'se blended tints
Strike beauteous on the g.izsr’s eye,
We love, "when past the sudden shower,
•v Those gorgeous colors to descry.
Have seraph finders woven th:?e
Within their halls of love and light?
Then hung thy matchless drapery,
To gleam upon onr mortal sight 1
II:
Arch of the Heavens! do cherub feet
That sweetest causeway love to pressl
And pass £rom-point to point in space,
Upon the bow of loveliness ?
Or sits some favored being there,
Unviewed by us of grosser mould,
Whose form of thjice supernaj grace
The garments of the blest enfold 1
Arch of the L Heavens! are such Hire thee
The bright supporters of tlmthrone 1
Where reigns and rules, above",
He, the Ineffable—Unknown ?
But see, tbon art too sweet to last,
Faded and gone thy radiant dye
Like loved ones, who before us past,
Through yonder portals, to the sky.

BT THE BEV. EDWARD 0. JONES, A. H.
PAUL JPKEACHING ON THE HILL OP
MARS—A BIBLE SKETCH.
When Paul was awaiting ftt Athens the
arrival of his two, companions, Silas and
Timotheus, he rambled through the classic
city of Athens, denominated so beautifully
“the eye of Greece.” With a taste re
fined by ment'al .culture, every object must
have charmed him, which exhibited the
skill of the artificer. Temples, whose ar
chitectural proportions were the most per
fect, captivated his visipn; statuary and
painting,the most ideal,attracted his ardent
gaze and music, whose harmony in
upon his senses, made him fancy that he
was indeed a denizen in an enchantpd
region. : But to contemplate a country
with a classical, is far different from re
garding it with a Christian eye. A region*
which is redolent of natural and artistic
beauty, may be sadly deficient in high
moral excellence—its atmosphere may be
pure in one sense, but laden with pestilent
miasma, in another aspect: and so it was in
the present instance. The city was not
partially idolatrous, -but wholly given to
idolatry. And as Paul contemplated its
marblp glories, his spirit' was stirred within
him to 1 witness its alienation, its entire and
unequivocal alienation from God and truth.
And when he stood upon the Hill of Marsj
in the : full audience of the most learned
assemblage ever convened in a <nven
time and place, he took occasion
to preach to them of the Unknown
uodj of whose glorious attributes they
were so lamentably ignorant. He told
them that’the great . Deity, emanations of
whose mind they were, was not to be
depicted by the handicraft of the artisan in
golden or silver figures,the mere designings
of piously enthusiastic men. He assured
th Tu th , at ., m ® od they lived, and moved,
and had their being, and that it was a
prostitution .of their sonship thus to grovel
m animal delights, forgetful of their noble
destination, and regardless of the stringent
claims of one who merited their love. What
a lofty appeal thus went out from that Hill
of Mars ! What a glowing vindication of
-truth m the very face of those who in skep
-I{’™ indifference denominated him the
babbler, and turning loatliingly away from
the banquet he had spread for their famished
souls. When Jesus and the resurrection
were announced by the Apostle, esteeming
him a setter forth’ of strange gods, they
heaped obloquy on his head, and sought
their homes. But rarely does the Almighty
fcaje Itself without a witness,. whin a
faithful sermon is delivered by a sincere
servant of his Son. One amid that band of
hoaiy sages was arrested in his high-toned
skepticism, and mduced to abandon cold
phdosophy for the warm and enlivening
e w ~C ?HV an ethics ‘ ‘ The cr °ss upon
ihe Hill of Mars won to itself a noble
trophy. Dionysius—the isage—the philo
„!ri be Ar , eo P° ait e— was convicted,
on verted, saved. And a lowly woman
who gathered amid the throng, and perhaps
was overlooked in the imperious conclave—
a humble female kept close by the side of
Paul, and owned the mastery of his appeal,
and gave her heart to God. Within sight
p, e . of Minerva, and the statue
they both repudiated a system
“terwoveq with their being,
and took up the cross to bear it through
evil and through good report. Woman’
