0 blessed ITome ! much loveth God thv gates—
Thy holy mountain paths, where Righteousness
And pence each other ever Kiss. Mercy
And Truth together meet, and Glory dwells
In all thy spotless Land forever more.
In thee the church trium, hant firmly stands
A rock immovable I-- nor 'gainst, it shall
The gates of hi 11 prevail, for llehaih sai l
111- Christ and He this Kingdom loveth well,
Arid in It They shall reign for'er end e’er.
MonntaL sofpoworand beauty girdle thee!
Aye, even as-Jerusalem of old,
And on thy d-ep foundations planted He
The everlasting covenant —and God,
The Sou, redeemed It with His precious Wood,
And on the palm of llis ow n ha ad engraved
He it. He, thy Defence is, Zion :by Ilul ve,
Omnipotence and truth “Fair as t.hu moon,
Clear as the:?un”to day thou’r:. marching forth
While gloiiesof the Eurth, ps morning cloud
And early dew, swift passawiy. Si iacst

Os our God, who. in thy mid t is mighty
And whose promise shall not fail fore’er.

As raptures —suffering, as well us j -y,
When sadly by those fountains sat and wept
To uiu.sicof the murmuring stream thine own
Forsaken ones. Neglected hung their harps
Upon ilie weeping willow trees, und sad
And lonely lilt they in aland so strange,
Ai din their woe cri* and. bit w r e down ; yea, weep
W’e by these livers bitter tears w hen we •
Remember Zion, city of our loro.
Deep notes of lamentation filled the air
When tny t ad captive ch.ldren shook off
Their slowly dra. r ging feet thy precious dust.
Ne’er resting tueir toilsome flight and march
’Till in adeseit land they laid themdown.
From hopeless bondage, deepest ruin, He
Soon called thee, and in robes of beauty made
Thee,Zion, glorious again— *i'he Lord
Hath chosen thee.’’ Behold thjr house isleft
No longer, Ziun, lone an i desolate 1
No longer, Zion, lone und iheoiate
Shall thifie own glorious House be left; for tliou

The raging of the sea, that when the wave#
Tiiereot didstrieo in anger, He did still

Were dark with shadows. Never more shall boughs

Unto the seas and rivers '.—ne’er again
Shall all thy hedge be broken, m>r thy flowers
Be plucked by strangers hands. He whoso lov’d
Aud pite i thee hath clave the hardened Rock,
And thou shall driuk forevermore of sweet
Andsparkling wateis. Ne’eragain upon
Thy m"untain’Bsncred top shall conquering troops
Sweep in their power. Upon its summit now
Glad hearts will ever throb to music sweet
And when upon thy valleys' bosom falls
goftshndesof eve— and on thy gates of pearl
The lingering light dim shadows fondly kiss,
By thine own rivets come with songs and harps
Ag-in thy Virg ns fair, whose beating hearts,
Like that deep troubled sea, have felt the storm,
And note are ‘‘stilled,’' and feel the storms n a more.

Mining Under the Sea. —Titero is avast
oopper mine in England, shafts extend
many hundred yarde under the sea. The
moaning ot tho waves as they dash against
the rocks is forever sofinding in those
gloomy aisles. When the storm* come the
sound of the waters becomes so teriffic that
even the boldest minere cannot stay below,
but leave their work and come out upon
the earth. Overhead are mases of bright
copper strea fling through thegaliery in all
directions, traversed by a net work of thin
red veins of iron, and over all salt- water
drips down from tiny crevices in the rock
Immense wealth of metal is contained in
these roots, hut no miner dares give it
another stroke w ith his pick axe. Already
there has been one day's work too much
upon it, as a huge wedge of wood driven iu
t > the rock bears witness. The wedge is
all that keeps back the sea from bursting
iu upon them. Yet there are three tiers of
gallieries where men work day by day. not
knowing but at some fatal hour the flood
may be upon them, rendering all escapes
as hopelesc as it was in the days of Noah.
The awe-stricken visitor hurries away from
the scene with a heart appalled io view of
fee hourly dangers.
THRILLING ADVF.NfURR —HOW A
LIGHTED CANDLE WAS REMOVED
FROM AN OPEN BARREL OF GIN
POWDER.
From tbe N. Y Commercial Advertiser ]
0;-eof our oldest merchants, who is socn
to pass away, and who foimerl.v carried on
bu-ioe-s in a eaver street, ret-id ng—as it
was tne custom in hid timer—over hisß‘orr,
tells th?j following thiihing narrative,
which he occasionally relates with thril
ling eS’ccti
A party hnd collected >tt liis house to give
eclat to one of thofl,* little tktnily lestivals
which brighten the dark trace of life, and
cheer the human heart in every clime. It
was his daughter's wedding nay ; crowds
of her y**ung acquaintances circled sfound
her, und as the lather gased proudly upon
the lace of the young bride, he wishad as
bright a ['respect might open for his other
children, who were gamboling muirily
among the crowd.
Passing through the passage connecting
the lower rooms, ho met tho maid servant,
an ignorant country weuch, who was car-,
tying a lighted tallow candle in her hand,
without a candlestick, 11c blamed her for
this dirty conduct, and went into the bitch*
eu to make 8* me arrangements with h.s
wife about tue supper tab s. The girl
shortly returned with h* - r arms fu*l oi ale
h itr!c3, but with ui the cardie. The mer»
chant immediately re<;vllected that sever..l
barrels «»t* gunpowder had been placed in
ills ‘eiiar dor ng the and y, and tH.it lus t e
man had opened one oi the barn-la to se
lect a simple for ucustmioi. “Wliere i>
your candle,’* he inquired, in the utm st
agitation. ’*! couldn't bring it up with me
for my hands were full," said ihe giri.
“Where did you leave it?’’ “Well I’d uo
candlestick, so I stuck it into some black
Sana that's ther» in one of Die tubs." Tue
inerchaat dashed down the cellar steps ; the
passage was long and dark, ami as he
groped his Way on, his knees threatened to
give woy under him ; his breath was chok
ed, ami h s flesh seemed suddenly to be
come dry and parched, as tl he already felt
the huffocaiing blast * f death.
At the ex reality of the passage, in the
front cellar, under the very room where
h s children and friends were reveling in
f i-ity, and iserned the open powder bairel
fuii almost to the top, the candle stuck
iigh'ly in the loose grams, with a long rod
snuff *T burnt cut w ick topping tho small
aud gloomy flame. Tins sight seemed to
wither all his powers, and the merry
laughter of the youngsters above struck
Upon liis heart like the knell of death. lie
stood a few moments, gazing upon tne
light, unable to advance. The tidd.er com
menced a lively jig, aud the feet of dancers
responded with increased vivacity; the
floor snook with their exertions, and the
loose bottles in the cellar jingled with the
mo ion. He fancied the eeudie was mov
ing—was tailing! With defiperate energy
he dashed forward : Hut how was he to re
in Ye it? The sbgi tst touch would causs
tne small live emil .*f wick to fall into tha
loose powder. With uneaqualed presence
of mind, he placed a hand on each side of
the candle, vviih the open palms upward,
and the distended fingers pointed toward
the object of his care, which as his hands
gradually met, was secured in ihe clasping
or locking of his fingers, and safely remov
ed from the h -a*! oi tne barrel. When he
reached the head of the stairs the excite
ment was over ; but the re lotion was too
p werfu , and lie leil into fi*3 < f moat vio
lent and dreadful laughter. lie was con.i
veyod benvele->s to _>ed and many weeks
elapsed ere his nerves recovered sufficient
t*me to allow him to resume his habits of
every d.y life.
Fen'raTi n Ft 'ry fr *m Louisville—A
Resurrected Murderer —The Courier-
Jouruai teds a startling story of the bring
ing to life a man named Kriel, who was
hung in tha f city two * ;tgo for murder.
The Telegraph and Messenger condenses
the statement as follows; When the rope
that held the trap was severed and the body
fell it was a subject of remark that the
hands and feet remained entheiv unchang
ed, showiqg a tremendous exercise of will
and control of nerve. The neck was not
broken, neither was the rope drawn so
closely about his neck that its mork could
be distinguished, neither wa3 the skin
chafed a particle, and it was noticed by
persons who witnessed the execution that
the carotid arteries of the neck pulsated
after the surgeon declared his life extinot.
After hanging some minutes Kriel’a body
was placed in a coffin and rapidly driven
away to the cemetery vault A surgeon of
skill, and a firm believer of resu-itation
through the galvanic process, is said to
have been driven in a wag m, containing a
mattress and blankets, to the cemetery;
shortly thereafter the vehicle returned with
the hotly of Kriel, wh:c!i was co v*-yed to
the surgery of another skillful and learned
physician. The body was mac din a re
cumbent position on tho tab e. fie galvanic
battery applied, and in less than filteen
minutes the v arm blood commenced to
course through tho chilled body, and at
last the eyes opened. oie *-f the doctors
asked Kriel if he was sensible ; the eyes
answered expressively, a *(l rhe lips opened
ineffectually, for no sje oh cumo 1 -r:b.
Stimulants were poured down the throat of
the revived criminal, and in less than one
hour after be had been plaoed in the sur
gery, Km 1 sat up and asked them, 4 What
have you done? “Am I alive ?“ He was
then disguised and hurried away to a place
of safety.

correspondent says a caucus of “leading
Republicans" and carpet-bag Senators arid
Representatives in Washington, la-u week,
determined to send agents of the National
Labor Union Congress into each State of
the South to start Labor Unions among the
negroes. It will be a decidedly new and
interesting element of fuss and feathers
when Southern planters and housekeepers
have to submit to the dogmatism and des
potism of negro labor unions in employing
hsfnds and servants. We will guarantee
that this will raise the price oi' cotton.

there is far le'S of this so-<*allek tyranny of

her beauty and graces to persuade, instead
