For the Presbyterian punier and Advocate
NiesEs. EDITOR/ :—You some time ago pub
lished an account of a very remarkable and ex
traordinary outpouring of the Spirit of God upon
the little church of Mount Pleasant, in Clearfield
County, Pa. Among the number of thoßk
brought into the °birch at that time, was J. R. C.
Not long afterwards he went to Kansas, to assist
in eetabliehing freedom in that territory. He
lately. sent to hie former pastor, the-following
verse,. They lump good, that lam constrained
to give them to the public. Mr. C. was baptised,
on his reception to the church, to which he makes
a beautiful allusion in the third stanza. That
dear little ohurob, above which
"A light seems hanging in the air,"
bas had her share of affliotions since then, but
has manifested a most devoted attachment .to
truth and`righteoasness, and has lately had a
refresbing from on high. Lenox.)
Pita by C , to his former Pastor
Alone, a wanderer, I prayed
A brother's lore to share ;
And when we met, you were to me
An answer to my prayer.
My weary heart, with hope and joy
Vertlowed like Summer showere,
And rested in your . wealth of love,
As on a bed of flowers.
And when, with selerien weßVfaux an
- _
Was pressed'upon my
0 how myapirit thrilled to feel
That Beal—l feel it now'.
Again, as in my dawn.of life,
But with a sweeter power,
Did heaven's approving brightness shine
Upon me at that hour.
'T rraslike - ajoyons Slimmer time,
With, sinking birds around,
When Voiotia front the spirit-land
Respond to elory sound;
When flowers and winds, imbued with life,
8o sweetiy, gently woo ;
And all theitaislook down, and smile,
As if they lovedme, ton.
Bit eines that time, dark clouds have rolled
Between me and the atm
Long, weary years have counted out
Their moments, one by one.
Yet still, where'er I turn myrsteim,
My heart is lingering there;
Above that little Agra, a light
Seems hanging in the air.
I 've wandered far, I've wandered long,
But And no place of rest;
0 brother, brother, let pie now
Repose beside thy breast;
For like a child returning batik,
No more from home to part,
From earth's remotest bounds I'd come
To nestle near thy heart.
Then be, when other friendships fail,
A brother warm and true•;
For, leaving faithlegs ones, my soul
Doth fondly turn to you.
Around you all her olaspings twine,
From other friendships riven,
And feel, still feel, that love is not
All lost this side of heaven.

Fairzcwar, or The San Jacinto in the Seas of India,

We have examined this book with considerable
care, and we are greatly pleased with the amount
of observation and solidity of judgment which
the author has displayed in it It presents an
honest Winters of the East, and the scenes des
cribed are portrayed with so much minuteness,
that ordinary readers who are not particularly
intimate with Indian and Chinese life, will rise
from its perusal with satisfactory views of the
condition of the people in these lands. We are
gratified to find that Dr. Wood does full justice to
the. missionary cause wherever he has occasion to
notice our brethren who have gone to the tot.
He possesses' the common' sense of a man who
has breadth of mind to know that in mastering
foreign' longtime& in translating the Bible, into
foreign tongues, in establishing schools, in dis.
playing Christian precepts and charm:ter, so as to
oxen:4lllY RhilsthinitY to the mass of an ignorant
heather:4oop%, there is great progress' made if
oven there were no converts made among the
adult populatian. Dr. Wood, however, is candid
enough to show that remarkable reardts of the
most gratifying character, are apparent in all the
Stations. One most remarkable fact which he'
states, we here notice, namely, that the present
King of Siam, who was formerly a Buddhist
Priast, has become acquainted'with the Christian
Scriptures; and' he has since rejected the Budd.=
,
hist Cosmogony, and retained the moral precepts,
of, the system alone,: thereby preparing his Imo,
ple for the admission of the erroneous character
of the 4 whole Buddhist system. This book will

The last three hundred years have been full of
events of the most stirring and thrilling interest.
They have been characterized by momentous
changes in the physical, political, intellectual,
and moral states 'of mankind. To condense the
great and. varied subjects extending over this ex

tive of all that is most interesting and vital in
its history, has been the object of this work.
And with great success has the intention been
accomplished. , Dates, names, battles, and sieges,
have not been forgotten, but special care and at

stowed on the ideas and men by whose it llaence
the great changes have been brought about. The

MESSRS. EDITORS :—L-We furnished you
an article last Spring on the above-named
fruit, giving an account of , its origin, char
acter2stics of: the, plant and fruit, the soil to
which it is adapted, its season of bearing,
and its extraordinary productiveness. • The
past season has done much to establish:the
reputation of this remarkable fruit. Wher.

heard, it has net only given entire satisfac

its favor. Many who at .first looked On it
with distrust, fearing it WBB another Morus.

and are going into its cultivation very ex.
tensively„ It has been satisfectorilY tested
in this neighborhood, and most triumphantly
sustained its high reputation. A great
number of persons visited our grounds last
Summer during the fruiting season, among
whom were not a few of those who were
avowed unbelieversin it, and, without a
single exception, they were amazed and de
lighted with the vigor. of the plants and
size, productiveness, lusoiousness and beauty
of the fruit, and affirmed that ; ; though so
much had been said in_ its praise, the half
had not been told.
As this fruit is not only very palatable
and wholesome—being generally
_regarded
as medicinal—hit can be devoted profitably
to so many different- purposes,.the market
will hardly ever be overstocked : A' writer
in the New. York Tribune, says, five,,lian
dred acres of plants are needed in 'the im
mediate neighborhood of that city to supply
the daily demand for berries. . •

judges of, fruits, thus speaks of it
"In company with some friends I visited ,
the farm of Mr. Knox, last Summer, for
_the
purpose of seeing the New Rochelle Black
berry in fruit, about which a great deal
had been said, and against whiCh I enter
tained a prejudice. It is but just to say
that this prejudice his been completely , re
moved. To the previous marvelous tales
told in reference to this fruit, I had listened
With stolid indifference. To be perfectly
frank, I did not believe a word of them.
-Bat,- to be equally honest now, that opinion
I had formed in , ignorance is entirely
changed: I found on Mr. Rndi's grounds
stieha display of fruit as I was not prepared
for - , and but express` the universal:opinion of
the company, that - to all lovers of, fruit this
is an immense stride:in the way , of improie
ment.
"All - who are 'familiar "with the' wonders
cultivation will work, will not - be at all sur
prised' at what may be effected by the intel
ligent labor of years; but here is a fruit
that has suddenly attained an excellence
that is truly Wonderful.
-
"The New Rochelle Blackberry -is not
only a most delieidus fruit, but a prodigious
bearer. I Oat off's branch about eighteen:.
inches long, on which I counted seventy-six
berries, all perfectly formed, and of extra-'
ordinary size and beauty.
"Those who had the Privilege of exam,
iningthiir fruit - on Mr. Knox's* grounds are
unanimous in their opinion that it has not
been overpraised, and that order to be
appreciated it must be seen hanging on the"
plants in its abundant, rich and beautiful
clusters."
Jacobus, D. D., , Professor in the
Western Theological Semmary, says :
" Last Summer I went to pee the °tie.
,orated New Roof - idle, or Lairton•BleolrbirrY;
in bearing. I found them altogether 'Sur
passing my expectation—the stalk tall and
hinging full of the largest beriies, in
all-the various
_stages of ripening ;,and;the
yield was truly' Wonderful. I learned from
a friend who had planted• a small plot in the
neighborhood, that they requiredvery:little

would supply, the table with,,a healthfil and

The,', editar:of the Pittsburgh Ohroiicle
gives the following notice of it: '
THE NEW ROCHELLE BLACKBERRY.-
Accompanied by some gentlemen from the
city, we paid a visit to the farm of tbe - Ilev.
Mr. - Knox, in Lower St._ Clair township;
and though ,we. had heard much of the sue
cess which, had attended° his 'culture of the
New Rochelle Bliteltheriy, and were conse
quently prepared: to see it in:a-high state of
perfection, we must" confess that it more
than met'our anticipations; and that in eize,'
yield,; and flavor, it fail - excelled anything we
had heard = or read of it. -
The New Rochelle Blackberry Wes that
lutrodnaea here by Mr. Knox. He put
down but a few plants at first, but their i m
!noise yield, and the superior quality of the
berry, convinced him that it was just the
thing for this district; and the following
year, at a very great outlay, he set several
acres of the plants. The result is easily
told. Coming up - to his warmest anticipa•
tions, he is now able to supply our market
with this very desirable and beautiful berry
in large quantities, and at a time, too, when
Strawberries are not to be had, and Rasp
berries are out of date. •
The Blackberries grown by Mr. Knox are
nearly as large as Plums, unsually sweet and
palatable, and hang in most bountiful pro
fusion on the bushes. On one sroall,vine
alone there were some six hundred berries
—some green, others red, more almost ripe,
and not a few. fit for gathering. They begin
to ripen early in July, and continue in sea
son six or seven weeks, thus furnishing us a
delicious substitute for the Strawberry and
the Raspberry;to either of.which they are
not a whit inferior. They are said to be
admirably adakted for preserves, and make
excellent wine—their juicy nature rendering
them in this latter particular unusually pro
ductive. •They,.have become a great favorite
in the inarket_;. And as. the ,plant is an ex
ceedinglylardy one and a heavy producer,
we do not see why every man - possessed of a
piene giniind should not have his "I'iew
Rochelle Blinkberry" patch . . It would
furnish him a delicious berry in the season
and tlie surplus t he might 'send to market,
where theywrill ever command a reinunera
'five , price;
Weliayeabiindance of. other testimony of
a like, ebaracter, and could say even more in
than we have; but let every One
who hatra piece of ground, if only large
enongh'for a single plant, try it for himself,
