THE 13UUIAL. “And where is he ?—not by her side, “ Wiiose evtry want he lov’d to tend.” The morning had bocti cold and wet, but as the meridian approached, the cloiuis began to disperse and the sun gra dually breaking through the heavy u raithsof overshadowinggiooin, sprink- iOi' T thousand glories amid the (Jripj)ing gr.iss blades, an«l spread a sj)Iendid rain- bo^v above the drhUng seuds that lilled lh»‘ western skies;, as 1 ascended the ^1' eu hill b} a path that led to the late dwelling of De \V’altcr.

A few fi’icnds or.ly acconjnanied the moiu’ning family l):ick to the Mansion of the hill ; .iiid hiiviw': loitered a few moments by th(* giave, I lollmved them. In crossing the t'arni, now that'th(‘ concourse of people itad disappeared, 1 beheld the tokens of that surldcn calami ty, which had overwhfInietl its inhahi- tanls, in (?very dii-ection. A plough lay overluined in the fun*i)w ; an axe was rusting by a ,}»ile of wood ; and a W'agon half unloaded stood in the lane. In the general panic, every thing had been left in the situation it haj>pened to be at that moment. These had been perhaps unnoticed that day by any other; but to me, each little incident spoke in a voice that reached the heart. It is sad; it is melancholy; it is touching, the spectacle of grief’s pale messenger, as it is -displayed even in the minutest traces of its footste’ss or its efl'ects.

'I'he opening sermon was preacli- by the liev. John Witherspoon, from Is' XX. “Take heed therefore, beautiful airs with vviuch tlit-y were ac- companicd. Taking advantage of the public fe«-ling, he luul engaged the fir.^t musical composers to aid by the poivor of melody tlie spread of his opinion. At first this was not ^ii^covercd, and Catholics as well as Hugonots were sol acing themselves on all occasions with this new music. JUit w^hen Calvin ap- jminlfd thckie Psalms to be sung at his meetings, and Marot’s formed an ap pendix to the Catechisinof Geneva, this )>ut an end to all Psalm singing for the |)()or Catholics! IMarot himself W’as forced to fly to Geneva from the fulmi- nnLions of the Sorboime, and Psalm singing became an open declaration of what the French termed ‘‘.Luthenin- ism.” In our Island, its hi.story is soon told. —Sternhold, an entliusiast for the Re formation, undertook to be our Marot— without his genius. His Psalms were practised by the puritans in the reign of Elizabeth, and more particularly during the protectorate of Cromwell, and on the same ])lan of accommodating them to j)opul.lr tunes and jigs, which one of them said were “too good for the devil. ” Psalms were now sung at Lord Mayor's Dinners and City Feasts ; soldiers sang them on tJieirmarch, and at parade; and few houses which had windows fronting the street but had their evening Psalm. M(tg. followed—the croud gathered round without, and at last the bright polished mahogany coffin w’as brought out and laid carefully, and softly down upon the bier. A deep solemnity rested upon the cir cling crowd for a moment—every eye was turned pensively and sadly towards that spectacle, and the language of ma ny a heart S(*cmed this—“ He is, what I shall be !” The gulj>h seemed so rian ow, that divided etcrnitv '^roni time, lli.'it I almost Ihouglit, I could sec be- yoi d it—Death stood before me, a re ality—snd roniimled me of that great ciiansre which is hastening to pass upon all men.

OmC’.lN OF rSALM SINGING. There is in “ D’luracli’s Curiosities of Litera ture” an amusing- account of the origin of Psaim Sing-injf. It appears that the flrstbook of Psalms in verse w^as written by IMarot, a Frenchman, the favored bard of Francis the Firat—that “ Prince of Poets, anti that Poet of Princes,” at' he was quaint ly but expressively designated by his cotemr orai-ies. Jt was published at Pa ris, aiul contained 52 psalms, written in a A'ariety of measures, wil.h “the .same style he liad done his ballads and ron deaux.” I'his “ holy song-book” w'lis dedicateil to the king of France,; and beinija gay novelty, no book was ever inore eagerly roceiA’ed by ail classes than Marot's I^salms ; they '‘old f;tster than the ])i-inters c«)!ild take them oiT t!i( ir j)res>es, l)ut as ihey were under,>.tood to fi(' son"^, and were accompanied by mu sic, ev ery one s^ i Lheni to i'.ivorii»‘tunes, t'onimonly tiiiise of po[)uIar ballads.— The ffillow ing iiiies, whieh conclude thi- dedicji'ion, will descriiie the feeling.^and enlhusiiism of tlii'ir autlior : Ttiri.’e iiapj*}' tlicy, wTio may bchokl, Auil lii-U II in fliMt ag’! of },''old An I'V tlu' plough tlie lal)oivi' stravH, Ami raniieii 'mid llie public wa\s, And tnuU sman in his shop sitall bWtll 'J lu ll- \oice in r.^.ilni or Cantirlc, Sing'in^' to solace toil; a,n'al:i l-'i’oiii woods sh.ill come :i sv.i '.'tt r strain; Slu piu ril ,iiid sill ptu nic.ss .shall \ ic In luany atiiKk'' psalmody, And tin iiaiiU' jirolon^r, And riifk and stri am ivnirn tluir soiijj'.

I •'. rnOM THE NATIONAL 1 .NTF.LlIfJ E VCSn. PUBLIC FAKCUTI»\S. Most people take ex(piisite delight in sQiiiw^othcrpeople han,i'C(i; in all coun tries, curious and eager multituiles gath er and press around the gallows to be hold a fellow creature pei'ish for his sins. The following incident, which hajipen- ed in I77S, in the New-Hampshire Grants, now Vermont, illustrates our remark : One David Redding was convicted of treasonable practices, and sentenced to be executed on the 4th of .lune of that year. The curiosity, which, not much to the honor of human nature, has ever been manifested on such occasions, was on this greatly heightened by the fact, that a public execution had never been witnessed in Vermont. To this curios- ty was added the strong feeling of indig nation which such a crime was calcula ted to excite at that period. Under th.c influence of these feelings, a vart multi tude collected to witness the execution. In the meantime, however, the learned counsel had discovered an important de fect in the proceedings. Redding had been tried by a jury of six only ; aud it was very unforturK\tely discovered that this was contrary to the common law of Great Britain, which recptired the ver dict of twelve. Application was imme diately made to the Governor and Coun cil for a reprieve until a new trial could be had.—The reprieve was granted at the moment the anxious throng w'cre collecting to w'ltness the execution. W’’ith such a multitude, and on such an occasion, it was in vain to reason^ or talk of the rights of Englishmen. 7hey had ])ronounced the culprit guilty, and were not in a condition to learn upon what principle the verdict of the whole comniitnity coulil be set aside with j^o little ceremony. While they were agi tated with mingled emotions of disnp- poiiitineiit and indignation, JvniAX Ar,- LKN, suddenly pressing through the crowd, asceniled a .siump, and, waving hishat,exclaiming, (lUentian {hcivhole! proceed(!(l to rnnoune.'; the rtasons which produc(‘»l the reprieve, advi.'sed the mul titude to depart peaceaidy to tluir halji- lations, an:l return on th'c day fixed for the ex'-fiition, in the act of the Govern or and ('onncil, adding, witii an oath, “ Von ‘^ha'l se(‘ sonieltody huiiti;, at al! event 1 will be hung nn sell’! TJ[)on thisas-airauce the Uj^roar ceased, and tiie niultituile disper.s('d. Jiedding was again tried on the 0th of .June, and exi*cut(;d ( n the lltli, 'I'he l'()r('i>;i»ingaiiec!olc h:is been often related by tiiose who w»'i e eye-w it nesses of th(! sc(Mie, and aceoids too well witii th(' spirit of tlie tinu'S, and tlu; well known char.jcte?- of Kthan Allen, to leave a (loul)t of i's autlicnticily. ye ed Acts - - unto yourselves, and to all the flock ov^'r which the Holy (ihost hath made you overseers, to ieed the church oi God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.” The Rev. Colin lM‘Ivcr was thoseii Moderator; and the Rev. Mes.srs. John B. Davis and Robert II. Morrison, were appointed Clerks. The Members of the Synod who attended this meeting, amounted to forty-one ; twenty-nine ministers, and twelve ru ling elders ; a larger number, by seven ministers, and three ruling elders, than have attended any of the preceding mee tings of this synod, since it was consti tuted in October, 1813. On Friday af ternoon, the Synod entered into a free conversation on the state of Religion, the result of which will be seen at the close of this suowwrry. /jii»^have passed a resolution, highly pproying of Sabbath Schools, and ear nestly recomii^ending all their churchesn served, cither in a public or privatt ♦rk if\ fUtc ciiKInnf • nn/l fn TTu^nnor. flip nnniinl Prnv’pr mo/iflr,/. . to pay attention to this subject; and to adopt some systematic plan of sabbath school instruction. They have also recommended that the first Thursday in December next, be ob served as a day of faftting., UumUia- liony ancLprayer. The following, is tlu: Synodical act, conUiining this re commendation. “'i'he Synod of North-Carolina, re cognizing in the dispensations of Divine Providence to their people during the last year, the peculiar claims of Almigh ty God, would devoutly call the atten tion of all their churches to the obliga tions which detnand the following ac- knov\ lodgements. “Thankfulness for tho mean.s of grace and their increasing success ; for the ble.ssings of peace and civil liberty ; for the health of many sections of our coun try ; for the prospect of a plenty within a portion of our bounds ; and for tue countless and tender manifestations of the divine regard, continually made to all our people. “2. Humiliation, under a deep and feeling sense of our ingratitude and guilt shewn in the neglect of the gospel and its ordinances, in the lukewarmness of our churches, in the coldness of our Ministry, and in the few and feeble ex ertions made for the advancement of the kingdom of Christ.

More deeply to impress these truths upon the hearts of our people, the Synod recommend, that the fibst thuusday OF DKCEMBKR NEXT, be obseived as a day of FASTING, humii.litiox, and PKAVEn. The following minute contains the re- .sult of the free conversation on the state of religion. “ From the conversatioii held on the stale of religion within our bounds, it appears, that no particular efl'usion of the Holy Spirit ha.s been experienced iiy our churches diu-ing the past year : a general state of alarming eoldness seems to prevail, which lontlly calls for mourning, fasting, humiliation and jiray- er. It ougiit ev»‘r to be borne in mind by the .Ministers of the Gospel, that, wJien the Griiat Head of the Church lias a c(mtroverhy with his people, his re|>roofs and warnings, are addres.sed to tlie»7//or minister of every particu- hr church. It, is, tiiert fore, in a gi-eat niea.sure. to the tvanl (d’faithriiliie.ss and acii\ ity in the Ministe>s of Chrisl, that file liinguishing stale (d'religion witliin our bounds, is to be ascribed.

Knough, inj^^; lias been done, by our gracious, covl^ nant-kecping God, to convince us, tl,^ he is ever rtady to bless our exertloii, and answer our prayers.

The daughters of Zion, who, in some of our churches, meet weekly, to ofler upon the altar of benevolence and |)iety, the fruit of their own labors, df- serve the commemlation and good wish es of all the friends of God. To such, we bid God speed. Many. do\i':h tcrs have done virtuously; but exccl them ally “ Favor is decci/fui, Ond beauty is vain : but a womtin ihit fearcth the Lord, she shall he praised!' In one instance., a dwelling house fcr their Pastor has been erected by a younj congi'cgation. This is an exanipk worthy of imitation.' “We rejoice to state, that, in mary of our churches, there arc societies, aiis- iliary to the American Society for amfr liorating the condition of the Jews. We Gentiles, are great debtors to tht children of Abraham; whatever we lioll by means of the Jews : Our Lord wasi Jew : the prophets and apostks and pri' mitivc dlscljdes, were Jews : the booivi of tho Old and New Testaments were written by Jews : and since, tliroiirii the fall of the Jews, salvation has coinf to us, Gentiles, the intention of the great King of Zion is, that, through ou; tiioy also may obtain mercy. The Colonization Society has not be^v rorg(.tt>'n ; and we trust, will never bel torgdtten, by our churches, until ii» God-like design shall be fully accom' plished.
