SONNET TO SLEEP. ( / SLK.i l*, thou pa:. site of happy mlndsi H .v so m ‘he wounded heart thy falftiood Sul*, Wh,:i fmtling .ortune may her gift* dif jjenl'e. And all ate gladden’d by the jays of fenfc, Where nodi fire f isthewn; or want betiay’d, TnnuVt the kind friend, oflicious in thy aid: 11 .t ah I how reedy and Uow sure to fiiun, The wretch by fortune, or by love undone. Where are thy dews, which balmy fragrance fhrd, llefcending nightly on my weary head f Why cease th’ induencr of thy gentle pow’rs, Which us’d to wait upon my midnight horns ? Tlr, h'.v’ring wings o’er me no more expand, No irr.re I feel thy foftly waving wand ; Tnee, difliitt fled, can no companion ptove ? Or is thy nature foaverfe ’o love ? Then from iliis pa Hi on let nt> bosom part, Andrea in It >ll lfcendance o’er my heart; Contentment onw: rd her glad tram mayled, And thou, her lov’d companion, fhutl fuccted. EDWIN.

Indecent be l i’-iour is as in r u:t,7lg to the digiii.y ol human m ure, as ir is derogatory to our own refuta tion, and oifgufhng to t! e gene rally o 1 mankind.

Nohing promotes indivi dual weituie, and, in the a ;gie gate, national prosperity, more than a religious observance of those incftimable principles of morality wtiich are recorded in the pages of Holy VViit. If motaluy and religion are fetal nought—if indecency in lan guage and deportment recei veu wnhout bhorr. nee, all fai h in nun mult be dcltroycd ; for, 1 hold it to be an incon roverti • ble truth that where there is none of that morality whi.h e nun tes from religion, there is no honour, and where there is no honour, there can be ro faith. } üblic or pnva e.
