WE ARE SPIRITS.
BT H. F. GOULD.
We are spirits—wildered spirits,
Errant froln our native sphere:
Busy now, but with to-morroW,
Who of us will still be here ?
We’re amid this dust and vapour,
Chasing shadowy shapes about,
Each by life s uncertain taper,
Which a moment’s wing pat out..
We are spirits—hardened spirits.
Masked and wearing cloak* of clay '
Grieved and care-worn; wrung and stricken;
Robbed and woojglcd where we stay;
Vet oa earth, the common mother
Of the forms that veil us here,
Do wc ts*ga-fp cue another,
Use the sa-ile to hide the tear.
We are spirits—restless spirits,
Eager still for something more,
Something we shall ne’er determine
Till our mortal search is o’er.
Grasping, loosing, self-deluding,
What we clasp we cannot stay—
That o’er which our hearts are brooding,
Is but fledged to fly away 1
We are spirits—-light winged spirits,
While our pinions, never furled,
Bear us on, we know not whither,
Till we’ve left a passing world.
With an heirship to recover
In the country of our birth,
Fondly do we bang and hover
O’er our little heaps ol earth.
We are spirits—fearful spirit,
Having powers we do not know,
Which, with use of talents lent us,
Light eternal is to show.
Time is ever onward hasting {
Endless life, or endless death,
While the moments fast are wasting,
Hangs upon a transient breath.
We are spirits born of Spirit,
God our father, heaven our home,
He would have us seek, as children,
Never, never more to roam.
Yet like one With baubles playing
On the v:ay at fall of night,
We may perish by delaying,
With our lather’s house in sight.

Roger Sherman was the son ol a Massachu-
setts farmer, and received only the advantages
which an ola-foshioned country district school
afforded. He was bound to a shoemaker j went
diligently through the elements of his inglorious
trade, as sonic then deemed it, and continued to
work at his bench after he was twenty*two years
of age. It is recorded to his credit and to the
shamo of somo young men in our time, that .he

His old mother lived to a long age, and her de

younger than himself were enabled, with the
proflered aid of their self-denying brother, to ob
tain liberal educations, and in afterlife, reward*

by young Shcnrian with his tools upon his back.

setting the afiairs of a person deceased, became
involved in a difficulty which required tiie assist*
ance of legal counsel. The neighbor stated the
case to young Sherman, and authorized him to
seek the advice ofthe lawyer ofthe town to which
ho w^5going. As the subject was not without
intricacy. Sherman committed'the case to paper,
and on bis arirval in the town proceeded with hi*
manuscript to the lawyer’s office. In stating the
case to the lawyer, he had frequent occasion to
recur to his manuscript. This was noticed by
flip lawyer, and it was necessaiy to present a pe
tition in the case to some court, Sherman was re
quested to leave the paper as an assistance in
framing the petition. The modesty ot young
Sherman would scarcely permit him to comply
with this request. 4 The paper,* he said 4 was
only a memorandum drawn by himself to assist
his memory.’ .He gave it, however, into the
hands of the lawyer, who read it with surprise.
He found it to contain a clear statement ofthe
case, and remarked that with some slight legal
alterations it would equal any petition which he
himself could draught. The conversation new
passed to the situation of young Sherman. The
lawyer urged him seriously to think upon Use pro*
fossion ofthe law. _ A new direction was given
to hit energies and & new impulse. to his
thoughts.”
In 1754, he entered, says Mr. Goodrich, upon
a professional career, in which few have attained
to greater honor and distinction. From this time
