POET RV. Tlie foul liatli said in his Hart “There is no Cod.” 8V MRS. L, SIGOURNEY. “No God! No God!” The simplest Tlwi on jlte wild is found, [llower. Shrinks, as it drinks its cup of dew, And trembles at the sound; “No God!'*—astonished echo cries From out hei cavern hour. And every wandering bird that flies, Reproves the Atheist lore. The solemn forest lifts its head, The Almighty to proclaim, The brooklet, on its crystal bpd, Doth leap to grave his name High swells the deep the vengeful sea, Along his billowy track, And red Vesuvius opes his mouth, To hurl the falsehood back. The palm tree with the princely crest, The cocoa’s leafy shade, The brcad-lrnit, bending to its lord, In yon fair island glade; The winged seeds, that borne by winds, The roving sparrows Iced, J he melon or the desert sands, Confute the scoruer’s creed. “No God!” With indignation high ‘i’ll i fervent sail is stirred. And the p ile moon turns paler still, At smelt an impious word; And from the.rimming thrones, the stars L ‘ok down with angry eve.

Is there no God, who arched the skies that o’er us roll, And stretched the azure heavens from pole to pole, Who bids the thunder peal and roar on high. Ihe lightning flash and dance along the sky? Is there no God, who made the gorgeous lamp of day, And guides its course through all the track less way, Who lit night’s silvet lamp, and hung it high, ’.Mid Inviiad hosts in evening's pensive sky? Is there, no God, who lit the hunting stars of llglll That sparkle on the silver wing of night, • Who come, methtnks, like spirits from a holier sphere. To watch o’er those they lov’d and cher ished here? Is there no God, who made the dancing wave, the broad, blue deep, The finny tribe that in her bosom sleep. Who rules the raging billows at his will, And whispers to the wind, “Peace, peace, . be still?” Is there no God, who reared the moun tain's height. And wreathed her ample brow in snowy white, Who bade the stream gush from bet rocky side, Ami into deeper, mightier waters glide? Is there no God, who formed the clmul-cnpt hill. Niagara’s mighty deep, each bubbling brook and till. The forests towering oaks, —those sylvan shades, The blushing flowers that droop o’er hill and glade? Is there no God? Ah think, frail, erring man, YVho gave thee power the works of God to scan? Taught thee to reason, think, philosophize an i love, And eon tlie .countless worlds that shine above?

The following charge of .M r. Justice I fit /is, in the Supreme Court at Melbourne, respecting the dimes of an attorney, is ex traded from tin; Sydney Herald, of the 25th ol May last: ‘ I have tiiifnriimaiely ninic than once had occasion to ( insure the conduct of some nl the attorneys ol this court, ami have re cently hectic pehid to stiike one olf tin rolls, lor rcltisiiig to explain certain trails actions with his client, w ieli appeared to me dishonorable anil unjust.

In all other cases, as soon as judgment is given, or the decree pronounced, he should pcisundc his client to acquiesce ; nay, it w hile the suit is depending, he recit es con viction that his client’s demand nr defence is ill-loumled, he. should advise him to drop the suit and agree with his adversary ; and il such adversary be poor, or has been in jured by having his just tight withheld or impeached, to make him ample reparation. Should the decision he in favor oi his cli ent, hut appear to he a hard though just sentence, lie ought not to encourage him to take the utmost advantage of the lignr or power of the law. w hile equity or puveity call for compassion or abatement. In criminal ruses, he should act with spirit and resolution against hardened and daring oilenders, but should he very (an imus, ami much none so not to add msuli to severity.

In giving advice on mortgages or purchases, or in any inouey transactions, an nttuniet should discimrage every undue advantage of the ignorant, unwaiy. or necesMions. When the debtor is insolvent, the attorney should promote equality in payment. — Where a debtor is uiilortunate, the attorney should dispose the creditor to show favor and compassion. Where the debtor shows himself to have been a designing villain, the attorney should slim all unnecessary connection and eoimmiuicaiion with him. In settlements and other family transac tions, serresy is more especially requisite. Croat attention should lie had in disposing I ol estates by wills, so that no cieditnr may remain for any length of time unsatisfied, and that peace and harmony .may be pro served aiming the children and icHitives of the testator. Care should be taken at all times, ami especially when the testator's faculties are in any wise impaired, to pro cure witnesses of undoubted reputation to the i xecution of the will. There are other matters within the scope of an attorney's duty, which, without par liculaii'ing, will holiest performed by his i observing die golden rule of do to others its • he would he done l>v. Thus will attorney* tree the profession from the reproach with winch unworthy members have stained it, and be a blessing instead of a curse to the eoiiiiiiimtty; the ornament and tint the bane oi society; the faithful guardians of the laws of their country, and best suppor ters of our courts of justice. That mere are many excellent alt i:ney s I am able to testily, but that there are others of a verv dtli'creot stamp, 1 am reluctantly b.iund to admit.
