SNOW- BOUND.
The following is from Whittier's new
poem, "Snow-Bound," and doubtless refers
to Miss Elizabethr Whittier, who died last
year
As one who held herself a part
Of all she saw, and let her heart
Against the household bosom lean,
Upon the motley-braided mat
Our youngest and our dearest sat,
Liftingber large, sweet, asking eyes,
NpW.:
- bathed within the fadeless green
And holy peaceof Paradise.
0, looking from some heavenly hill,
Or from the shade of saintly palms,
Or silver reach of river calms
Do those large eyes behold me still?
With me one little year ago:
The chill weight of the winter snow
For months upon her grave has lain;
And now, when summer south-winds '
blow,
And brier and harebell bloom again,
I tread the pleasant paths we trod, _
I see the violet-Sprinkled sod. '- -
Whereon sheleaned, too frail andtmiak,
The hillside flowers she loved to seek,
Yet following me where'er I went.
With dark eyes full of love's.content.
The birds are glad; the brier-rose fills
The air with sweetness; all the hills
Stretch green to June's unclouded skyi.
But still Thvait with ear and eye
For something gone which should be nigh,
A loss in all familiar things,
In flower that blooms, and bird that sings.
And I
t dear heartr remenibering thee
Am not richer than ofold?
Safe in thy immortality,
What change can reach the wealth I
hold?•
What change can ma; "the - pearl and
gold
Thy love hath left in trust with .. ?
And while in life's late afternoo
Wheretcool Midlong tfie sh : owsgeow,
I walk to meet the night that soon
Shall shape and shadow overflow.
I cannbt feelthat thott art far; •
Since near at need'the ,
angels are; •
when'the'stineet gatesimbar,
Shall Diet see thee waiting stand,
And white fgaingthe evtaing . star,
The weleonie ofthy beckohing hand?
SCIE OF' THE-BIBLE.
BY ALFRED NEVIN, IL D.
From some men's.qp.astions more can be
learned than from other .men's answers.
From some-men's silence more instruction
can be,deri - Yed than from other men's speech.
Indeed, it has been become a proverb, that
it is evidence of Wisdom to hnow when to
keep quiet.
"Fools rush in where angels fear to tread."
The sciolist, whose pride is as great as his
ignorance, will express himself freely on
subjects on which the profound scholar pre
fers to be mute. The one knows, the other
does not, that an insufficient explanation of
a difficult thing is worse than none.
Many a man has lost a cause at the bar by
not submitting it without argument to the
good sense of the jury. Many a physician
has lost the confidence of the public by at
tempting too much, or by ,showing in his
talk a 7rurt of power of, diagnosis, which
reasonable taciturnity might have con
cealed. Many a man in entering a gallery
of paintings or sculpture, where art has
placed ita grandest achievements, has be
trayed his utter lack of esthetic cultivation
by a boisterons and pretentious manner—
the very opposite of that subdued frame
which such productions always generate in
those who have taste to appreciate them.
Many a man, by opening his month out of
due,time, has sadly changed the impression
Which his appearance:and mien had pre
viously made.
It was
semarked by a distin-
guished scholar, in speaking of the
Bible, that "there is such fullness
in' that book, that oftentimes it says much
, by saying nothing, and not only its expres
sions, but its silences are teaching, like a
dial in which the shadow, as well as the
light, infortfis us." Bsautifal and truthful
representation ! We are learning—ever
learning—not only in the roaring city, bat.
also in thenoiseless forest; not only in the
excitements of the day, but also in the calm
- midnight hour; hot only in the "quiet
night" of the beautiful - light, but in the
thick darkness that brings worlds to our
view, which, but for its gathered curtains,
would never have been visible at all; not
only in the raging of the storm, bat also in
the hush' which precedes it;-and . not onlf in
the brilliant saloon, with its cheerful crowd
ing throng, but also in the chamber of
death, where the corpse of a loved one is
lying with a fixedness that seemed. to mock
the agony that has been occasioned by its
removal.
Even so are we ever learning from the
pages of inspiration, not only when we gaze
upon the high hills on which revelation
has poured the effulgence of its beams, but
also when we stand and look upon the
valleys, and chasms, and blanks, which
have been left, and can find no other vehicle
for cur feelings than the words to which
an Apostle himself was driven, "Oh, the
depth,!"
The Bible's silence in regard to endorsing
the absurd notions of science, which pre
vailed in ancient, times is most significant.
In Greek and Latin philosophy, the heavens
were a solid vault over the earth. The sages.
of Egypt held, that the world, was formed
by the motion of air and the upward course
of flame : Plato, that it was an intelligent
being: Empedocles, held that there were two
suns; Leucippus,
.that the stars were kin
dled by their motions, and that they nour
ished the sun with their fires. All eastern
nations believed that the heavenly bodies
exercised a powerful influence over human
affairs, often of a disastrous kind. In the Hin
doo philosophy, the globe is represented as
fiat and triangular composed of seven stories,
the whole mass being sustained upon the
beads of elephants, who, 'when they shake
themselves,cause earthquakes. Mohammed
taught that the mountains were created to
prevent the earth from moving, and to hold
it as by anchors and chains. The "Pathan
of theThurch" themselves teach doctrines
scarcely less absurd. "The rotundity of the
earth is a theory." says Lactantius, "which
no one is ignorant enough to believe." How
instructive, that,while every ancient system
of religion may be overthrown by its false
physics, not one of the forty writers of the
Bible, most of whom lived in the vicinity of
One or other of the nations who held these
views, has written a single line that favors
them.
I like the assumption or silent recognition
of God's existence at the beginning of his
record. How wise was this, in comparison
with what a metaphysical proof would have
beep; of : a truth which none but a "fool"
can deny, and be only "in his heart," as
what he wishes, says Lord Bacon, rather
than what he believes I like to read that
the Prodigal, though he determined, when
be was in a far country, to say to his father,
"Make me as one of thy hired - servants,"
yet did not mention his refusal to expect a
child's portion and place when embraced by
his welcoming-parenL Why?, Because
from this apparently fortuitous omission,
"we may learn wherein the true growth iu
faith and in humility consists, how he that
has grown in these can endure to be fully
and freely blest, to accept all even when be
most strongly feels that he has forfeited all,
:that 'only pride and the'surviving workings
.of self righteousness and evil stand in the
way of reclaiming every blessing which the
fRE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN..: PHILA FT PH S A TUB AN MARCH 17
sinner has lost," but which God is willing
and waiting to restore." '
I like to sit at the feet of Paul, as he de
scends from the third heaven, and hear him
say, he heard unspeakable words, which
it is not lawful or possible for a man to
utter. Some might be disappointed that he
bad nothing to communicate, but I am not.
I like his silence far better than any de
scription that could be given. This is, in
tact, the most, animating description that
we could receive, just as we have the
grandest ionceptioh - of the "mountain's
toftinessi bebause it' hidden in the clouds.
I Wish to he defeated in every effort to
understand futurity. I wish, when I have
climbed to the highest pinnacle to which
thought can soar, to be compelled to con-
Ceis that I have not yet reached the base of
the eterlasting hills. There is something
surpassingly glorious in this baffling of the
imagination. That heaven is inconceiva
blells the most august, the most elevating
discovery. It tells me that I have not yet
the power for enjoying heaven, but this is
only to.tell , me that the beholding God
."face to face," the "being forever with the
Lord," requires the exaltation ()Cray na
ture, and I triumph in the assurance that
what is reserved for me pre-supposes my
vast advandement in the scale of creation
If I had been 'writing a book thatl wished
to be very popular, I should have been care
ful to,do two things,or one of them. Firstly,
I wofild have ministered to human curiosity
as much as was in my power. I would
have made myself acquainted with the nu
merous strange and speculative inquiries
which men are ever ready to propose, and
have answered them. Or, if this could not
have been done, I would not have touched
any subject that I could not thoroughly
handle - and elucidate. But I find no such
disposition on the part of God's amanuen
ses. If we come to them with profitless
questions, the oracle is dumb. Neither, on
the other :hand, d 9 they shun a ,subject,
though in preStlnting it clearly enough tote
seen, they are tdleave much of in shadow.
This independence is very, expressive. It
indicates conscious 'strength. It is'not, as
is' generally anti - posed, the man who talks
much that is independent, but the indi
iiduarwho talka little or none. The former
shows his felt weakness by reaching out of
hirriaelf by conversatinn to find some sup
port—the-latter -indicates; by putting forth
no such effort, that he is self-reliant.
The' holy men of ' old. who spoke and
wrote "as they were moved by the Holy
Ghost," were not afraid to broach a theme,
though aware that many things concerning
it could not be' stated. They were bold to
tell of Lazarus rising, without throwing in
sketches of his experience "out of the body."
'ln this view, if it be necessary for men like
ourselves to speak that we may know them;
it is also true that it was necessary for God's
prophets,"and evangelists, and apostles, to
be, in a great measure, silent, that we might
- know them.. Had they undertaken to tell
us everything, what a different impression
would they have made! And how much in
harmony with our minds have they acted,
by revealing to us all we need know about
duty and destiny, doubtless all they knew
themselves, and leaving, as we cannot but
feel they ought to have left—infinitely more
for the explorations, discoveries and delights
of the eternal future, in which the path of
the just shall shine more and more unto the
perfect day !
Ancient Music.
;The dlientombing of Assyrian sculp
ture and thes deciphering of Assyrian
and Egyptian inscriptions have opened
new fields of investigation in • almost
every department ofknowledge. Among
the branches of science, which have
shared in these discoveries,that of music
- has beenbenefitedlargely. The accounts
f
ancient musical instruments were
vague,and our ideas especially of Hebrew
music were confused, till recently sculp
tures and paintings have been brought
to light which delineate the ancient mu
sical instruments of the early Oriental
nations, and in some cases veritable spe
cimene have been disenton2bed. Such,
for example,is an Egyptian harp founu
in Thebes, with its strings yet perfect
enough to vibrate again after a silence of
3,000 years.
The most recent investigations prove
that the parent of all musical science
was Assyria. From the Assyrians, the
Hebrews and the Egyptians, and ifideld
all Eastern nations, derived their
knowledge of music. The unveiled
monuments show that in the time of
Sennacherib music was a highly cul
tured art,and must have existed through
generations. This polished nation used
a harp of twenty-one strings, which ac
companied minstrel songs or was borne
in the dance. The lyre of tortoise shell,
the double pipe, the trumpet drum, and
bell were common. Even of the bagpipe
representations have been discovered,
though none of stringed instruments,
like the violin, played with a bow.
In delineations of social or worship
ing assemblies, musical instruments
very like our modern ones have a pro
minent place. The Hebrew music at the
time of the Exodus was purely Egyp
tian; but it was much modified subse
quently by association with the Asiatic
nations. In the Temple of Jerusalem,
according to the Talmud, stood a
powerful organ, consisting of a wind
chest with ten,holes containing ten
pipes, each pipe apable of emitting ten
different sounds by. means of finger
holes, so that a hundred sounds could be
produced by it. It was provided with
two pairs of bellows, and ten keys, so
thatit could be played with the fingers.
According to the Rabbins, it could be
heard a great distance from the Temple.

The Great Panic in Sacramento.
Sacramento city was kept in a state of
alarm all the night of Sunday, January 21.
Some small leaks had bitti discovered in
the levee 'near Smith's Gardens, made by
gophers (animals about the size of large rats,
which are very troublesome to farmers),
and also by squirrels and rabbits. A. party
of men were engaged in
_repairing the mis
chief, who found it necessary to send CO the
centre of the townloi gunny sacks,at 11 r. M.
As the river was very high and there was
danger of the levee giving way, it was given
out at dark that should such au event take
place the alarm would be , given by`ringing
the fire bells. The arrival of the messenger
was the' signal for a most unparalleled
panic. The bells rang and lanterns were
soon seen flying about the streets, and ox
cited 'men and womeh were shouting and
screaming: "Turn out," "Save , your
eelves," 'The levee •is broken," 'The
water is in." All hands, house
keepers and merchants, flew to packing up
their goods and removing them to the
second stories as rapidly as possible. In
about an hour, no water making its appear
ance, the alarm subsided, but the bells soon
rang again and sounded' at intervals' until
morning. The river did not get into the
city, and fell in a day or two so that the
danger was past. The American river is on
the north of the city; and its - current a,t 'one
point is almost squarely against the north
ern levee. The Sacramento river, on the
west,'gives but little trouble. At times of
high water the people of that city are in
dread lest some bad characters shotild cut
the levee, hoping to obtain some plunder iu
the subsequent confusion, or lest it give
Way at the point from which the alarm was
given. Bancroft's California Directory
Speaks of the water having been some time
I high enough to have buried the levee and
city several feet deep.
The Ihillroad Englineee.
One of our railroad engineers, 4iorne
years since, was running an express
-train of ten well-filled cars. It, was in
the night and a very dark night too.
His train was behind time, and he, was
putting the engine to the utmost speed
of which it was capable, in order to
reach a certain point at the proper hour.
He was running on a straight and level
'track, and at this unusual velociv,when
a conviction struck him that he must
stop. "A soniething seemed to tell me,"
he said, "that to go ahead was danger-'
ous, and that I must stop if I would save
life. I looked back at my train and it
was all right. I strained my eyes and
`peered into the darkness, and could see
no signal--of danger, nor anYthiag be
tokening danger, and there in the clay
, time I could have, seen five miles. I
listened to the working of my engine,
tried the water, looked at the scales and
all was right. I tried to laugh myself
out of what I then considered a foolish
fear; but, like Banquo's ghost, it would
not down at any bidding, but grew
stronger in its hold upon me. I thought
of, the ridicule. I would have heaped
melt I did stop; but it Was - all of
no avail. The conviction—for by this
time it had ripened into a conviction—
, that I must stop, greiv stronger ; and I
resolved to stop. I shut off, blew the
whistle fer'brakes acccirdingly. - I came
to a dead halt, got off and went ahead a
little without saying anything to any
body what was the matter. I had a
'lamp in my hand, and had, gone about
sixty feet, when I saw what convinced
me that premonitions are sometimes pos
sible. I dropped the lantern from my
nerveless `grasp, and sat - down 6n the
track utterly unable to stand." He goes
on to tell us that there he found that
some one had drawn a spike which had
long fastened a switch rail, and opened
a switch which had always been kept
locked, which led on to a track—only
about one hundred and fifty feet long—
which terminated in a stone quarry !
"Here it was wide open, and had I not
obeyed my premonitory warning—call
it what you will—l should have run into
it and at the end of the track, only about
ten rods long, my heavy engine and
train, moving at the rate of forty-five
miles an hour,would have come into col
-lision with a solid wall of rock eighteen
feet high ! The consequences, had I
done so, can neither be imagined nor de
scribed, but they could by no possibility
have been otherwise than fatally horri
ble." No one can here doubt the fact of
a special interposition of God by which
from a calamity most terrific, hundreds
of lives were wonderfully spared.—Home
