I, there no rest for way-worn feet?
1, there no future—peaceful, sleep ?
’ there no place where dear ones meet ? .
Iln 1 After this mortal life ?
Is there no ease for hearts that sigh ?
u there no home above the sky ?
Is there no life for souls that die .
1 1 Beyond this world of strife ?
Listening, the zephrys low reply :
We cannot tell the mystery
Of death, or life, or judgment nigh ;
’Tis hidden from our right
We only know thro’ ages part,
Across death’s silent ocean vast.
Above the winds and stormy blast,
Jehovah reigus In light
There is the rest for weary feet,
There is the place where loved ones meet,
There is thy future—peaceful, sweet;
No other do we know.
Yhere —there is ease for hearts that sigh,
There is thv home beyond the shy.
There, where the dear ones never die
Where living waters flow.
CYCLONES.
SOMF/rnING ABOUT TROFICAI. AIK MOVE
ments.
These sudden movements of the air are
perhaps, after the great volcanic eruptions,
the most terrible meteorological pbeuorn
ena of our planet, and we cannot be aston
ished that in the mythology of the Hindoos,
Hudra, the chief of winds and storms,
should have ended by becoming, under
the name of Siva, tbe god of destruction
and death. Some days before the terrible
hurricane is unchained, nature, already
gloomy and as if veiled, seems to anticipate
a disaster. Tbe little white clouds which
float in tbe heights of air with the counter
trade-winds, are hidden under a yellowish
or dirty white vapor ; the heavenly bodies
arc surrounded by vaguely-iridescent halos
and heavy layers of cloud*, winch in the
evening present the most magnificent
sliades D of purple and gold, stretching tar
over the horizon, and the air is a* stifling
us if it came from the month of some
great furnace.
The cyclone, which already whuls in
the upper regions, gradually approaches
Ihe surface of the ground or water. Torn
fragments of reddish or black clouds are
carried furiously along by the storm which
plunges and hurries through space; the
column of mercury is wildly agitated in
die barometer, and sinks rapidly . the
birds assemble as if to take counsel, then
fly swiftly away, so as to escape the temp
est that pursues them. SOOll a dark mass
allows itself in the threatening part of the
aky ; this mass increases, and spreads itself
out, gradually covering the azure with a
veil of terrible darkness or a blood colored
hue. This is the cyclone which falls and
takes possession of its empire, twisting its
immense spirals around the horizon. The
roaring of the sea and skies succeeds to
this awful silence.
Among the ettects that certain hurri
canes have produced, there are several
which would seem quite incredible, if the
genius of man could not by means of pow
der and other fulminating matters impress
on the air a still greater rapidity, and
give it thus, though in very limited spaces,
a force of destruction superior to that of
the tempest. On the 26th of July, 1825,
during the hurricane of Gaudaloupe, a
gust of wind seized a plank an inch thick
and sent it through the trunk of a palm
tree sixteen inches thick. In the same
way, in a lesser whirlwind which passed
near Calcutta, a bamboo was hurled
through a wall of a yard and a half in
thickness ; that is to say, the breath of
air in movement over this point had a
force equal to that of a six-pounder.
At Bt. Thomas, in 1837, the fortress
which defends the entrance of the port
was demolished as if it had been bombard
ed. Blocks of rock were torn from a
depth of thirty or forty feet beneath the
sea and flung on shore. Elsewhere, solid
houses, torn from their foundations, have
glided over the ground as if flying before
the tempest. On the banks of the Ganges,
on the coasts of tbe Antilles, and at Char
leston, vessels have been stranded far from
the shore in open plains or in forests. In
1681 a vessel from Antigua was carried up
the rocks three yards above the highest
tides, and remained like a bridge between
Iwo points of rock
In 1825, at the limy of the great huiri
enne of Guadaloupe, the vessels which
were in the road of Basse Terre, disap
peared, aud one of the captains, happily
escapiug, recounted how his brig had been
seized by the hurricane and lilted out of
Ihe water, so that he had. so to speak,
•• been shipwrecked in the air." Broken
furniture aud a quantity of ruins from the
houses of Guadaloupe, were Iraspot ted to
Monstcrrat over an arm of the sea fifty
miles wide. From the mountains of St
Thomas the immense black whirlwind
was seen from afar to pass across the sea.
and over the islands of I’orto Kico and
Santa Cruz.
The most terrible cyclone of modem j
times is probably that of the 10th of Oc- j
tober, 1780, which has been specially
named "the great hurricane.” Starting
from Barbadoes, where neither trees nor
dwellings were left standing, it caused an
English fleet anchored off St. Lucia to i
•lisappear, and completely ravaged this
island, where six thousand persous were
crushed under the ruins. After this, the
whirlwind, tending toward Martinique, en
veloped a convoy of French transports,
and Luuk more Ilian forty ships carrying
four thousand soldiers ; on land, the town
of St. Pierre and other places were com
pletely razed by the wind, aud nine thous
and persons perished there.
More to the north, Dominique, Bt. Bus
tabus. St. Vincent, and Porto ltico were
'ikewise devastated, and most of the ves
•els which were on the path of the cyclone
foundered, with all the crews. Beyond
Polo Rico the tempest bent to the nortli
fast, toward tbe Bermudas, and, though
t s violence had gradually diminished, it
sunk several English war-ships returning
. uro P®- At Barhadoes, where the cv
lone had commenced iu terrible spiral,

rage of mas was arrested before that of
nature. The Frencii aud Euglish were
then at war, aud all the ships which tbo
sea swallowed up were lsden with soldiers
seeking to destroy one another. At the
sight of such ruin the hatred of the sur
vivors was calmed. The Governor of
Martinique caused the English soldiers,
who had become his prisoners in conse
quence of the great shipwreck, to be set
at liberty, declaring that, in the common
danger, all men should feel as brothers.—

Mill on Sunday Amusements —John
Stuart Mill is severe against the opponents
of Sunday amusements. He says :
The only ground on which rcslriclions
on Sunday amusements can bn defended
must lie that they are religiously wrong, a
a>l ion of religious legislation which can
never he too earnestly protested against.
“•Dvorum injunr, Diis curia " It remains
to lie proved that society or any of ils
officers Un High to avenge any supposed
offence to Omnipotence which is not also
a wrong to our fellow creatures. The no
tion that it is one man’s duty that uuother
should be religious was the foundation of
all the religious persecutions ever perpe
trated, and. if admitted, would fully justify
them. Though the feeling which breaks
out in repeated attempts to stop railway
traveling on Sunday, in resistance to the
opening of museums and tlie like, lias not
tiie cruelty of the old persecutors, the state
of mind indicated by it is fundamentally
the same. It is a determination not to tol
erate others in doing what is permitted by
their religion, because it is not to he per
mitted by the persecutors’ religion

ities of the Morning News. For years and
years—indeed, since its establishment—lt lias
been a representative Southern paper, und from
that time to the present, lit all conjuncture*,
it bus consistently and persistently maintained
Democratic-States Rights principles, und la
bored, with an ardor und devotion that know
no abatement, to promote ami preserve the in
terests und honor of the South.
The special features of the Morning News
will he retained and improved upon during the
ensuing year, und several new attractions will
tie added.
The Georgia News Items, with llielr quaint
and pleasant humor, and the epitome of Flori
da Adairs, will he continued during the year.—

for the past year, the most complete and relia
ble to be found in any Savannah paper, and
the commercial columns will he full und accu
rate.
