Time a mighty limner is--
Oi conception grand and vast :
And he paints with rapid skill
On the canvass of the past.
And the brushes that he wields
Are Qie rods of human fate,
The colors aro the varied shades
Os men’s passions, crime and nate.
Then he sets the picture up,
Sets it high in Memory’s cell,
And the light that fits it best
Shines from deeds we have done well.
There ! frowns sin of every hue,
Rage and envy black as night!
But the sun of charity
Hides them in a flood of light.
There ! in battle’s crimson tide [mail,
The warrior storms in blood stain’d
One pitying thought! and Mercy hides
His sins behind her silver veil.
There ! the despot sits aloft—
Cruel Murder in his face.
One noble act! and Virtue throws
Her shield betwixt him and disgrace.
All the Battles, all the Laws.
All that Madness, Love, or Wine
Ever wrought on human fate,
Here upon the canvass shino !

And he paints with rapid skill
On the canvass of the past.

Fast flee from Thy presence the shadows of

And heav’n would be joyless if thou wert

The 1 iglit and the heat of Thy life giving day ;
That joys from the skies may my bosom

As sweets from the flower cups of nature

A DREAM.
(Remarkable dream of Alfred the
great, on the night previous to his
victory over the Danes.)
He dreamed that his relative St.
Neot, mentioned as the Chaplain or
Priest, who reproved him so severe
ly for his sins, in the early part of
his reign, appeared to him. The
apparation bid him not fear the im
mense army of pagans, whom he
was going to encounter on the mor
row. God, he said, had accepted
his penitence, and was now about
to take him under his special pro
tection. The calamities which had
befallen him, was sent in judgement
to punish the pride and arrogance
which he had manifested in the ear
ly part of his reign ; hut his fault
had been expiated by the sufferings
he had endured, and by the peni
tence and the piety which they had
been the means of awakening in
his heart; and now, he might go
forward into the battle without fear,
as God was about to give him the
victory over all his enemies. The
Kin** related his dream the next
morning to his army. The enthu
siasm and ardor which the chief
tains and the men had felt before,
were very much increased by this
assurance of success. They broke
up their encampment therefore and
commenced the march which was to
bring them before many hours, into
the presence of the enemy, with
great alacrity and eager expecta
tions of success.
THE BTILL SMALL VOICE.
Mortal, whatever your lot on
earth, is it not better than you de
serve? and amidst all your troubles,
have you not much to be thankful
for? Are you sad ? there are sad
der hearts than } ours ; go and com
fort them, and that will comfort you.
Are you poor? some are starving,
cold and houseless? warm and shel
ter them, and think how rich their
blessings make you. Are you ill
and suffering ? by your gentle pa
tience, be an example to those who
are suffering too. Have you met
with ingratitude from those to whom
you have been kind ? remember
how ungrateful you are to One
whose watchful care of you, never
ceases ; and you will forgive them,
and be kind again, and in the knowl
edge you have done good, }mu will
have your reward. It is the selfish
manner in which we live, engrossed
by our own troubles, which renders
us unmindful of those of others:
we hurry on through life, intent on
business of our own ; heeding not,
the many little acts of kindness w T e
could do for one another, which
would give us light hearts stul fill
them with the consciousness that
we had at least done our duty.—
There are constant opportunities
for kindly actions, if we would only
watch for them; then “ Let us not
be weary in well doing,” and we
shall find that “in due season, we
shall reap, if we faint not.”— By the
author of “ Only ”
Selecting Colors. —The art of se
lecting colors which suit the com
plexion and general wearer, is not
generally known among the ladies.
The following hints, however, may
be useful to them :
For pale haired or dark haired la
dies, those colors which produce the
greatest contrast are best. Thus
for fair hair, sky blue is becoming.
Yellow and orange tinted by red are
becoming to ladies with black hair.
Rose color should never be put on
in actual contrast with a rosy, com
plexion. because the latter loses by
the comparisen ; it should be sep
arated with white lace, 1 blonde, or
if a cap or bonnet by locks of hair.
Palo green is becom
ing; it makes them appear rosy, but
is unfavorable to ruddy faces for it
makes them too red. Violet should
never be used for fair complexions,
except for a very deep tint for con
trast. A violet dress will make a
fair complexion look green, and a
yellow one, orange, which is had
for all complexions. Dead white
such as calico is good for fair com
plexions, but had for the contrary,
for which the white muslin, or tulle,
in folds or cnruchc is more advanta
geous.
The future is always fairyland to
the young. Life is like a beautiful
and winding lane, on either side
bright flowers and beautiful butter
lies, and templing fruits which we
scarcely pause to admire and to
taste, so eager are we to hasten to
an opening which we imagine will
be more beautiful still. But by de
grees, as we advance, the trees
grow bleak —the flowers and butter
fles fail, the fruits disappear, and we
find we have arrived at a desert
waste, in the midst a stagnant and
letheanlake, over which wheel and
shreik the dark-winged birds, the
embodied memories of the past.
It has been observed with much
significance, that every morning we
enter upon anew day, carrying
still an unknown future in its bosom.
How pregnant and stirring the re
flection. Thoughts may be born
to-day which will never die. Feel
ings may be awakened to-day which
will never be extinguished. Hopes
may he excited to-day which will
never expire. Acts may be per
formed to-day, the consequences of
which may be realized during eter
nity.
We are never ridiculous when we
act as Nature dictates ; when we as
sume what she never gave us, we
at once become ridiculous.
If a man perforin iluit which hath j
not been attempted before, or at
tempted and given over,or hath been
achieved but not with so good cir
cumstance, he shall purchase more
honor than by effecting a matter of
greater difficulty or virtue, wherein
he is but a follower.
How mean a thing is a man with
little motive power ! All the abili
ties nature has given him lie useless,
like a great aad beautiful machine,
ready at every point for useful ac
lion, but not a wheel turns for want
of a starting power ! And the true
and indispensable power is energy.
When a girl refuses you, assume
a philosophical air, and tell her } r ou
are glad of it; you only made the
proposal to win two bottles of cham
pagne and an oyster supper you had
bet with a friend, who had thought
you had not spunk enough to talk of
matrimony to a termagant. Them’s
’am.
“ Boy, why do you not go to
school ?” “ Bekase, sir, daddj^’s

comes to go to the ’cademy.”

CARD OF THANKS.
THE CONDUCTRESSES of the Seamen’s
Fair, lately held at the Long Room of the Ex
change, avail themselves of the obliging col
umns of “ The Friend of the Family,”—ever
open to the cause—to express their gratitude to
all those kind friends that came up to their aid
so liberally and so promptly, during the three
days and evenings of the FAIR —contributing by
their presence and their money, to the success
ful accomplishment of the object for which the
same was held. They congratulate the friends
of Seamen upon the pleasing fact, that the ne
cessary funds for the carrying on of the affairs of
the Mariners Church, and the support of the
Mariners’ Preacher for another year, are thus
happily provided. May those who have aided
therein be made happy in the reflection that they
have labored in a good cause, and have given
with cheerful hearts. They tender their thanks
especially to the Editor of The Friend of the
Family, for his gratuitous publication of their
advertsements.

CONYZA and BTILLINGIA.
THIS Preparation is a highly Concentrated
Extract, containing all the Active Medicinal
Properties of the Conyza, (commonly known
as Black Root,) and the Stillingia, or Queen’s
Delight.
These Plants have long since been used among
our Southern Negroes and in empyrical practice,
with the happiest results, in cases of Chronic
Rheumatism, Ulcers of long standing, and Sec
ondary Syphilis. It is much superior to any pre
parations of Sarsaparilla as an alterative, being
more active and prompt in its operation on the
system. These facts have induced the subscri
bers to present to the attention of Physicians a
preparation prepared according to strict Chemi
cal and Parmaceutical science, devoid of all
the feculent and inert parts of the root, not doubt
ing that it will supercede the unscientific and
crude preparations hitherto used.

TIIE long looked for painting of DANIEL
IN THE LIONS’ DEN, C’ vering a space of
240 Square Feet, has just .arrived, and is
now exhibiting at the Armory Hall.
The subject of this Painting is taken from
the oth chapter of Daniel, and the 22d verse ;
“ My God hath sent his angels, and shut tiie
lions’ mouths.” The Guardian Angel is rep
resented in the picture as having just descen
ded to the earth—lie is spreading his wings
over Daniel as a defensive shield, to cover
the head of the kneeling saint, enfolding him
as a mantle- ol soil and celestial plumage.—
At the sight ot the vision, the lions shrunk
back with fear, or hushed by the voice that
stills the raging storm, sink down into dt ep
and-subducd repose. The Prophet is depict
ed iu a posture of devotion, with his counte
nance beaming with love,awe and admiration.
