OUR PASTOR HAS LEFT US.
A pain has the air borne the sound,
nh.cli each child of earth must utter, bat
1 iv til which every heart i-linnUs back "I'ure
t'W.' N.t altme by one voice has it been
I rea'hed, nor fr-nn one hnuclnd 1 prup on!y
lia- its cchri been heard, but through a con
gregation of hundreds ha"! its saddening tones
been sent, for our Patnr ha leii us ; and we
sorrow that in the sacred desk we shall see
his fare no more."
Years since, we avc to him the parting
band, and a fervent "(u-d speid' a; he
went from lis. IJut nut as nou. Tlo n, vc
were cheered by ihe ihoulit thai he would re
turn to us aain ; aain he would mingle with
us in the social circle, a?ain we would enjoy
his holy iustrue.iit'n ; and whether he weie
Ib'atin; upon the deep blue ocean, wandering
amid the sands of the dusky iiudouins or
resting beneath the sacred .shade of Olivet,
still we could claim him as vur ivr, and
!el that his thoughts were ever turned to
ward us his people, and his prayers ever as
er ling to a throne ot grace in behalf of his
Jlrk.
Hut nd thus do we now separate. The tro
closely twinrd with pleading associations
which has received new strength with each
ft lied strand this tie is nut only drawn, but
riven. From earh accustomed walk shall we
miss the man of (Sod; from lite pulpit, and
lecture room, where his lips shall no more
!i'pene the words of truth. From ihe cham
ber of affliction, where chastened ones were
fainted to a land of pure delight," to a land
the inhabitants of which never say I am
sick," to that glorious habitation where 4(!od
i-hall wipe away all tears from their eyes ;
and there shall be no more death, neither sor
row, nor sighing." And we shall rnNs him,
too, from homes where the wm of the dark
me-sen:er is casting us chiliin? shadow into
anguished hearts. So more shall his words
f hope vrenthenthc dying fur the lastcontlict
and the living for the stern trial.
Vet we would not murmur, but rejoice that
'.uriii our pastor's faithful ministry, he was
ihe instrument ol bnnsinj; so lare a number
to receive the glorious truth, the word; of
eternal life. Shall net these, ia that day
when the grrat head of the church shall come
to mak! up his jewels, gem the crown of his
rpjoicini .v,i we njoice, too, that while in

lo say that rertnin f-inales who call lliein
selves lathes, and claim connection wiih the
'upper ten," have indulged in these practices
for some lime; thry are well known to the
wn:er, and will be dealt with according to

conduct, should be excluded from all good so

saketh them, shall have mercy." lint the .'c- '
testable and abominable vices, above alluded j
to, are not confined to females : certain would- !
be gentlemen have circulated the most vile and
slanderous reports about young men who are
their superiors in gentlemanly deportment,
and to whose faces they profess friendship, i
I can not conceive what object those male and .
female back-biters have in view, unless it be
a species of low-minded and narrow-hearled '
prejudice, which delights in destroying the ,
moral character of others. Any grown man
or woman who participates in such mean and
immoral conduct, should be branded on their
foreheads, ihat ihe world inighi know them,
and should be compelled to associate together .
as birds of one flock. Look on ihe damage ;
those practices have done to society, not on
by wasting the time and attention which
might be devoted to the acquirement of useful 1
knowledge, but the jealousies, bickerings, and .
disorders ihey have occasioned. How much i
better would it be, instead of trying to disor- !
ganize st.ciety, to speak well e.f all, and say j
things that arc calculated to hind all respec-
table people into one brotherhood ! But there I
is one class of latllers who act through igno-

Here is our family nee;
My mother's hinds this Uible clasped ;

Ah 1 well dn I remember those
Whose names ihese records bear;
Who 'round the hearih-stone used to close,
After the evening prayer.
And speak of what those pages said.
In tones my heart would thrill !
Thong'u they are with the silent dead
Ilre they are living still !
My father read ihis Holy Book
To sisters, brothers dear;
How calm was my poor mother's look
Who leaned (Sod's word lo hear!
Her angel face- I see il yel !
What thrilling memories come!
Again that liule group is met

A HOKE BEYOND THE TIDE.

Homeward bound we sweetly glide,
We are out on the ocean sailing,
To a home beyond the tide.
All the storms will soon be over.
Then we'll anchor in the harbor.
We are nut on ihe ocean sailing
To a home beyond Ihe tide.
Millions now are safely landed
I'pou the golden shore.
Millions more are on the journey,
Yel there's room for millions more.
Come on board, O ship for glory !
lie in haste, make up your mind !
For our vessel 's weighing anchor ;
You will soon be left behind.
You have kindred, over yonder.
On that bright and happy shore;
llv and by we'll join their number,
When the toils of life are o'er.
Spread your sails, w hile heavenly breezes
tiently wall our vessel on ;
All on board are sweetly singing,
r'ree salvation is the song.
When we all are safely anchored,
Then we'll shout, our trials o'er,
We will walk about the city.
And we'll sing for evermore !

his bitter and unrelenting abuse of liepubli-

those of one personally coucerned for ihe up -

Only last winter the public remember a
sharp correspondence between Douglas and
Slideil, concerning a report attributed lo
the latter that Senator Douglas' blaves were
badly used starved and maltreated. Douglas
was indignant, tu4 Ihat he was charged with
