LINES TO A FRIEND.
With a love all kind and tender,
Seeking still thy true enjoyment,
I would tell thee something pleasant,
Something that would teach thy spirit
To be cheerful, loving, happy, -Something
sweet to be remembered,
Something pleasant to be pondered,
"What may make you all forgetful
Of this present world so changing,
; And to visions full ol glory
Ope the golden gates of heaven,
Opea to yon, gazing upward,
Where our ever happy home is
"What I tell you, what I whisper
In your ear, so softly, sweetly,
To your soul so dearly anxious,
Is (I breathe the word in silence,)
Is (I to repeat it tremble
' "With a thrilling, joyous rapture,)
"God is love !" Our Father loves us.
God is love" O, sing the story
- He is true, and he Is faithful,
He is pitiful, forgiving.
Slow to anger, full of mercy,
-With long sullering compassion ;
Listen to it. Hear it, hear it !
' How it thrills the saints in glory ;
Angels sing it full of rapture.
"God is love !" How sweet the music.
How it swells in sweetest concord,
Till all heaven is one vibration
Of the ever swelling anthem,
Swelling, swelling, louder, louder,
Till each harp has joined the chorus.
"God is love," is still that chorus.
God is love." (), let the echo
Still reverberate through heaven,
Ever rising higher, higher,
Till immensity is filled
With the joy forever spreading,
Till eternity is weary
With the jubilant thanksgiving. Logan.
Answer to Enigma of last week D. Eigh
iten hundred and Sixty.
Honorable Conoitioss. Many years ago,
III what is now a flourishing city in this State,
lived a stalwart blacksmith, fond of his pipe
and of his joke. He was also fond of his
blooming daughter, whose many graces and
charms had ensnared the affections of a suscep
tible young printer. The couple, after a sea
son of mutual lulling and cooing, "engaged"
themselves, and nothing but the consent of
the young lady's "parient" prevented their
union. To obtain this, an interview was ar
ranged, and Typo prepared a little speech to
astonish and convince the oi l gentleman, who
sat enjoying his pipe in perfect content. Ty
po dilated upon the fact of their long friend
ship, their mutual attachment, their hopes for
the future, and like topics, and taking the
daughter by the hand, said: "I now, sir, ask
your permission to transplant this lovely flow
er from its parent bed'" but his "pheelinks"
overcame him, he forgot the remainder of his
rhetorical flourish, blushed, stammered and
finally wound up with "from its parent bed,
into my own.'' The father keenly relished the
discomfiture of the suitor, and after removing
his pipe and blowing a cloud, replied : "Weil
young man, I don't know as I have any objec
tions, provided you will marry the gal first."
