&V'K =s= The Christian Poet's Song* James Montgomery, the poet, thus devoted hit latest energies to hymn Lis Savior’s praise. The following sacred song’, so full of faith, of gratitude, and love, was composed only the day before his death—April 29, 1854: O come all ye weary, And ye heavy laden. Lend a glad ear to your Savior's call: Fearing or grieving. Yet humbly believing, Rest, rest (or your souls he offers to all. 0 then sing hosanna, With jubilant voices, And follow his train with willing accord. Like him, meek and lowly. In heart and life holy. Own Christ, as good servants, your Master and Lord. How eaev his yoke is,| How light is his burthen I But what he suffered no language can tell— His grief in the garden, To purchase onr pardon, His pangs on the cross to save us from hell. Hence loud hallelujahs 8hall sound without ceasing; And till they all meet in the kingdom above. The liviog, the living. Prayer, praise and thanksgiving. Shall joyfully render their love for his love. Censors not the Beast. Oh Censure uottbe heart that loves, Howevsr strange a choice weaee ; Each gentle spirit knows ifemate, Tho' bid from ua the tie may be! When mortals meet, their spirits hold Communion, in the silent air; And trust, aud doubt, and love, and hate, Invariably are awakened there 1 Oh let them freely love that can; . Our mortal loves will toon be o'er; We cannot know whit earthly bliss Survives upon a heavenly shore; Pull many a fragile, tender joy, Was made for this pour world alone; And whether found, or failed of, here, In after-life will ne'er be known I 'Brief Stara. 1 VARIETY, THE SPICE OF LIFE: Watt’s ms Name?—launch says that the inventor of the steam engine was a man of great en-gine-uity. What kind of soil is best adapted for the cultivation of rye? Very dry; for every person knows that in-dus-try must prosper. It is to be feared that they who marry where they do not love, will love where they do not marry. Snooks was advised to get his life in* sured. “ Won’t do it,” said he, “ It would be my luck to live forever, if I should.” At a meeting of clergymen, not long since a reverend gentleman by the name of Loss, ofdimensions somewhat extend ed, both laterally and altitudinally, pres nted himself. Says one of the bre thren to him ; " When you left your people you were a great Loss.” “Yea,” said another, “ but when he dies he will be no Loss.” *• Yes,” said a third, “ he will be a dead Loss.” A Yankee Giantess.—The Port land ( Me.) Argus says that there is a woman named Silva Hardy, a native of Winton, in that State, who is seven feet six inches in height, weighs three hun dred and thirty pounds, is nearly thirty years of age, and is still growing. Filial Affection.—That a father’s is a very bad part may be proved, amongst other instances, by an affidavit of an Irishman, who, swearing the peace against his three sons, thusconclud d:— “ And deponent further saith, that the only one of hi* children who showed him any real filial affection was his yourgest son Larry, for he never struck him token he teas down. There was a good deal of murmuring the other day by outsiders, and when the rain began to fall, some may be suppos ed to have muttered these words:— '• Twa* ever thus from childhood’s hour That chilling fate baa on me fell; There always comes a soaking shower When I hain't got no umberell. ’ New Firm and New Goods, WATCHES AND JEWELRY, SILVER AND PLATED WARE, MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS, Ac.

Conversation is the music of the mind. Eloquence is the language of nature. Applause is the end and aim of weak minds. A bad style is better than a lewd story. A truly great roan borrows no lustre from splendid ancestry. A bad wound heals; a bad name kills. A knowledge of our duties is the most useful part of philosophy. A bad workman quarrels with bis tools, A few books well chosen are of more use than a great library. A bitter jest is the poison of friend ship. Avarice generally miscalculates, and as generally deceives. A blithe heart makes a blooming visage. GEORGIA—Clause County. W HEREAS. James M- Ridgeway, and John N.

N presenting this work to the public, the Jl publishers believe that they are supplying a desideratum, the waut of which has been long felt by the reading community, and especially,by the people at large. No other work, much leas any other single volume, contains the complete and extended view qf extibe American history which is here pre. sensed. The plan and execution of the book are entirely new; the arrangement of the various European Provinces under their re spective national heads, and the subdivision of these into separate Coloniee and States— due chronological order bein preserved— will, it is thought, make it of peculiar value as a book <•f reference, and greatly facilitate a clear aud accurate knowledge of genet al history.
