jportrg* fFrom tbe Rome Courier.] ■•The Fool hath ai<l in hi* heart there ia no Cod.”- Vroverbtt ‘BT “ OLD TYPE.” When Nature folds her veil around The scenes of noon-day joy— When all is still, and not a sound Is heard to breathe annoy The mind may rest from labor free, On Father, Son, and Spirit, three. When night wraps Earth in sable gloom, And twilight fades away— When Life is silent as the lomb Clad in its dark array— 'Tis then tho Christian soul may rest In safety on Jehovah’s breast. When Luna's beams dance o’er the lawn When gentle zephyrs blow— When rippling rills glide smoothly on And in sweet union flow ’Tis then and there the soul rtVay fly, And read now lessons from On High. God’s presence dwells in ev’ry place, About, behind, before— He moves in endless, boundless space And fills Creation o’er. Not mov’d like man by storm or blast. He’s beie and elsewhere, first and last. Go look hnnwath the Ocean wave, And gaze on ev’ry star— Go wake the cold and silent grave, And God will meet you there. He’s here. lie’s there. He's everywhere, Iu Heaven, in Hell, in Earth, iu Air. v Above, within, And past the pale of being. The burning eye of God is seen Ail awful eye all seeiug. For all of life and light is His Where all things are—where nothing is. i l nigh, the low, the great, the small, .'he nations bond and free, m Before the great tfehovah fall And own His power to be. ■ Aud Heathens, too, with bless’d accord, * Praise one Jehovah, Jove or Lord. Oh ! Fool, lift thou thine erring eyes Where Angels’ songs resound, And seek for Life beyond the skies Where God’s elect are found. For 9oon. alas ! thy soul must dwell High up in Heaven or deep in Hell. jfcnE WRONGS OF MAN, —Mr. Gilliflower, Pf'cannot have tho shawl;” Blwsay “it is not in your power,” course, sir, not at all ! cau buy those vile cigars, ‘ And pay your clubs as well— Now don't come near me !

Goon Grit. —lt is an old saying that as good fish remain in the sea as ever were taken from it; and this principle will apply as well to things terrestria as to tilings aquatic, for instance:—Du ring the present session of our court a laughable scene occurred between the grand jury and one of our citizens who was required to give general informa tion of things in general: ‘Please sta'e.’said the jury,’every thing you know,’ •In relation to what?’ asked the inter rogated party. ‘Why, sir, in reference to genera misdeme moig.’ * A#k me some direct question,’ said the citizen, ‘and I will endeavor to give you a direct answer.’ ‘Sir, you are brought heie to answer questions —not to suggest rules of pro priety.

I am not in the habit of picking up little things !’ ‘Only One.’—One hour lost'in the morning by lying in bed will put back, and may fustrate all the business of the day. One hole in the fence will cost ten times as much as it will to fix it at once. One drinker will keep a family poor and in trouble. One sumner destroyeth much good. GEORGIA, Harris County.
