Not only when the weary head Turns restlessly through all the night. And WHtebc. longitor. till the light Comes joyless to the suilei cr 's bed But when with even pulse tho blood Thrills through our veins unchecked aud free, Then, lest we fail in love lo tliee. Dear Lord, deliver thou urt good ! Not only when In poverty We sink beneath our load of care, And drng the cross we cannot bear, As did our Lord on Cuwilry But when the stores of wealth are poured Around us by thy liberal grace. Lest w hat thou gu est lode thy face, Oh ! then deliver us. good Lord ! Not only when, with ft.lterlii, tread. We totter down the .dope of age. And. we.,ry with our pilgrimage, Ebvy tho SiVeetly lunil" .:i:g deml But nhen we ri.ie the bal.le-song. In youtlrs glad hour ol hope and pride. Then, lest we leave our Captain's .-kie.

Under the influence of the recent federal reverses the secessionists of this place havtj ventured to make some significant remarks. They openly declare that ihe Union shull not be broken, but that if the North ia beaten, it shall be subjected to the rule of Jell'. Davis, w ho w ill be the next I'resident of the United Slates ; for the northern states will be held as stll-jtigatcd provinces. This lets the cat out of the bag rather prematurely, and it tloes not ut all suit the Canadiau now sympathizing with the South. They openly say that they want the Union to bu dissolved, and two or more confederacies to exist iu its place. The idea of a Union under southern riders is as repugnant to their notions as tin; old "Union lis it was."' Cci.i: rou a J iui.no TIw.m:. J R.
