Eye and Bye.
II V U A V I I BATH.
There i.s an aiiirel ever near,
When toil and trouble vex and try,
That bid our fainting hearts take cheer.
And whif-pers to us " live and Bye."
Wo hear it at our mother's knee ;
With tender smile and love-lit eye
She grants Nome bon on childish plea.
In these soft accents " Jiye and liye."
What visions crowd the youthful breast
What holy aspirations high
Nerve that young heart to do its best,
And wait the promise "liye and Bye."
The maiden, sitting sad and lone,
Her thoughts half uttered with a sigh,
Nurses the grief she will not own,
And dreams bright dreams of " Bye aud
Bje."
The pale young wife dries up her toarg,
And stills her restless infant's cry,
To eattdi the coining step, but hears,
How sully whispered " Hj'e and Bye."
And manhood, with his strength and will,
To breast life's ills and fate defy,
Though fame and fortune he his, still
Has plans thatilie in " Bye and Bye."
The destitute, whose scanty fare
The weary task can searce supply,
Cheat the grim v:sagt of Ir:spair
With hope's fair promise "Bye and Bye."
i
The millions whom oppression wrongs
Send up to heaven their wailing cry,
And. writhing in the tyrant's thongs,
Still hope for freedom ' Bye and Bye."
Thus qver o'er life's ruggc l way,
This angel, bending from the sky,
Beguiles our sorrows, day by day,
With her sweet whispering- " Bye and
Bye."

promiscuous assembly. In Christian
progression, and the development of a
higher and a richer experience m the
deep things of God, it it manifestly im
proper to introduce the irreligious ;
such a course would be cashing " pearls
before swine." Besides, no one, who
is not divinely inspired, can suit his in
structions to the diversified conditions
and complicated wants of the children
of God, without questioning them and
entering into free conversation with
them. Jesus, who knows the heart,
had no need of asking the early disei
nles the state of their mind, but pro
ceeded to instruct them as their cases
required; albeit, sometimes he ques.
jtioned them. Rut we must catechise'

no marvel if he should be over-!
He iK-els the encouragement;
and prayers ot his brethren to enable ;
him to overcome the adversary and "en-;
dure hardness as a good soldier of the
cross." Jesus " ofttimes resorted" to j
this select teaching, and private devo-j
tion with his disciples. May we imi-
tate this example.
Consonant with this example of the
a r .1 p il I I P
.uasier, as u,t; us;tge ui ui.; uiuiui di-
iter the ascension. Paul exhorts '"And
jlet us consider one another, to provoke
j unto love and good works: mtforsak-j
jing the assembling of ourselves togeth-
j er, as the manner of wioe is; but ex- j
i horting one another," &c. From this;
text we may infer that the primitive ';
; Christians met often together to prompt j
I one another to love and rood works bv j
religious conversation, and instruction,
an.f exhortation. Lay influence whs i
j recognized as of great importance in the '
i early days of Christianity, and by this j
I means the life and power of religion ;
j were more fully developed. Do we see
ja want of "love and good works" in j
the church ? The cause lies, in a great i
j degree, in this delinquency in neglect- j
jing to meet together, and " of exhort- j
; ing one another." Too many of the!
! members of the church are neglectful J
I of this, and, while they are lean in their j
own enjoyment, they do nothing to ad-j
j vance piety in others. Ao marvel it
; the church is wanting in efficiency when
the members only assemble on the Sab
bath, when they have nothing else to
do, and at the 'hour of public worship
when it is fashionable to attend church.
The household of faith must get nearer
than this in their communion. Thev
must strengthen one another's hearts
and hands by mutual exhortation and
encouragement. ""Would God, that
all the Lord's people were prophets,
and that the Lord would put his spirit
upon them." W. G.

Mrs. II-
after receiving a severe
reprimand from her friend Miss T ,
for laiurhinjr in Church, " but it was as
I told you, I misunderstood Bro. R

" I don't think your mind was in a
very devotional frame, or such a mistake
would have given you pain rather than
pleasure," returned Miss T .
" Well, I don't know don't you ev

" No, never !"
" Did you never ?"
" No yes, once only once."
" Do tell us the cause !" exclaimed
we all in one breath. j

mined looking little fellow, evidently l -ays : ;
accustomed to carrying things at home
with a high hand, and kicking all the
little negroes about right and left.
He began his dinner with a dish of
almolds, which happened to be stand
ing before him, and at which he made
asulden "rah the moment he was in
his chair. No souirrel ever nut nut
into his mouth faster than he did, for a j
couple of minutes, and at the end of
which he began filling his pockets.
At length the waiter asked him what
he would have for dinner.
"Give rue chicken," said he, sharp

" Give me icily.
The current jelly also was brought.
But, verv soon, something going

mother, however, appeased him; and! j
stopping his noise, he called, in a mud
tone of voice, for some milk.
" Give me milk."
This furnished, he did not withdraw
his nose from the cup till it had touch
ed the bottom ; and when he did, there
was still a drop pendent at its tip.
This, however, fell oif, as throwing his
head back against the chair, he drew
a loud, long breath, as if his dinner
were done, and he himself completely
exhausted.
But a few moments' rest revived him,
when he "returned to his muttons."
Yet, nothing within sight suiting him,
he sat, for the next five minutes, grum-
bling and whining, and in a humor de
cidedlv unfavorable to the digestion of
his almonds, chicken, jolly and milk.
But, at length, having made himself
and his parents sufficiently uncomforta

out boldly.
" Give me 'lasses."

"You don't want molasses at

Ca.lh.Dtm ani DemostheL.es.
In the volume of Mr. Benton's " Thir
ty Years View," not ret given to the
public, there occurs the following pas-
relative to the great debate be-
between Mr. Calnounand Mr. Clar, in
t--
. "He hl reply, ana at nis own gooa
time, which was at the end of twentv
days ; and in a way to show that he
had " smelt the lamp,',' U;jt of Demades,

It was profoundly meditated and elabo
rately composed ; the matter solid and
condensed ; the style, chaste, terse and
vigorous ; the narrative clear ; the log-
ie close ; the sarcasm cutting ; and eve
ry word bearing upon the object in view.
It was a masterly oration, and, like Mr.
Clay's speech, divided into two parte,
but the second part only seemed to oc
cupy his feelings, and bring forth words
from the heart as well as from the head.
And well it might ! lie was speaking,

to whom he appealed as judges while
invoking as witnesses. lie had a high
tribunal to plead before, and he rejoic

him ; a high stake to contend for, his
own reputatien; manfully, earnestly,
and powerfully did he defend it. lie
had a high example both in oration and
the analogies of the occasion before
him; and well had he looked into that
example. I happened to know that in
this time he refreshed his reading of the
Oration on the Crown ; and, as the de
livery of his speech showed, not without
profit. Besides it general cast, which
was a good imitation, there were pas
sages of a vigor and terseness of a
power and simplicity which never
would recall the recollection of that
master-piece of the oration of the world.
There were points of analogy in the

FOTR BAYS ON A PrAIKIE IX A SNOW
Storm. xV correspondent of the Kan
sas Herald, writting from Iowa Point,
! Kansas, Feb. 3d, gives a remarkable
instance of endurance on the part of a
female. He says :
A Miss Martha Perkin?, who resides
five miles from this place, was on a vis

here. On Tuesday last, the oth inst.,
she started to walk home. It was snow
ing hard at the time she started, and
continued for two days. The snow was
then eighteen inches deep. Her road
was mostly over high rolling pjrairie
the snow beating directly in her face.
She pursued her journey with much dif
ficulty, until within a mile of home, she
lost her way, and rambled about until
near sunset, when she took refuge for
the night, in a deep bushy ravine.
There in the deep snow, she construct
ed a very ingenious liitla hause out of
the tall weeds that grew near by, and
there she spent the first night of camp
life, without food to sustain life, ox fire
to warm, or any clothing except her ap
parel, to shelter her from the storin,
the little weed house she had erected
being the only thing she had to keep her
from her exposure- to the bleak winds
and howling storm. Early next morn-
ling she started out in pursuit of herj

Mr. Nathaniel Vasnedre, for many
years a worthy officer of Midway Con
gregational church, Liberty county,
Georgia, died a short time since at that
j place. He was a kind master and had
i grateful servants. His man Plenty, in
particular, evinced a most devoted
friendship. By night and by day he
was in attendance upon the sufferer, as
awatcherandanur.se. One evening
his master asked him to sing and pray

with him. Immediately Plenty refer-1
