laboring onljvto ameliorate the condition of the en
tire human family— striving to benefit all, and art*
not, as may regard us, a small party contending
against the rest of mankind to gain a short-lived trh
unipMhat we may rel;n and enjoy the loaves and
fishes for a brief period. Political triumphs are ac
cidental —depending upon a thousand contingencies
which may reverse in each successive canvass the
decision of a proceeding one. Our cause is of uni
form and universal interest, and when it triumphs we
want it to be a righteous decision of the people from
which there is not, nor can be any appeal, and a vic
tory won which can never be forfeited nor degraded;
we want Temperance to reign preeminent and im
mutable: want it to constitute the crowning glo
ry in the Executive cha : r, which shall not retire with
the incumbent, but abide as a chief element in the
dignity of tfae office ; we want it to brood over our
Legislative bodies, purifying their deliberations, and
strenethening the confidence of the people in the
wisdom, intelligence, and faithfulness of their repre
sentatives. We would have these great principles
fill the Houses of our Leg’slature to overflowing,
even v.s the glory of the Lord filled the Tabernacle.
I May not Love Thee.
The following is floating about in t’ c sea of
newspaper corners and winis to good music:
“I MAY NOT LOVE TIIEE ”
“I may not love thee—but within my heart,
When night and darkness set my spirit free,
And I sit musing from the world apart,
There is a lo v, deep voice that tells of thee.
That voice is sweet and mournful as the tone
Os fair iEVtian music heard in sleep,
Or the wild cadence of a spirit lone
O’er the hushed waters of the midnight deep.
I may not love the—but thy blessed look
Forever haunts rnv soul when thou art far—
It glances upward from each moon-lit brook,
And downward from each bright and holy star.
’Tis imaged in each flower that lifts its eve
At morn to greet tin- sunshine and the dew,
And fairy cloud that wanders by,
Fioltting in beauty o’er the mountain blue.
I may not love thee—but thy gentle words
Can stir within my soul its font of tears,
And wake the echo of my heart’s dec-p chords,
‘Like some swept melody of early years.
I may not love thee—but thy image seems
A loving radiance to my spirit given,
For oh! I picture thee in all my dreams
Os bliss on earth and blessedness in Heaven?”

Having just laved down “Pilgrim’s Progress,” onr
eye fell on a copy of R tsselas, and the mind was led
inadvertently into a comparison of their respective
merits. Both are undoubtedly works of geniu-,
both are exhibitions of human nature, and both
were intended to inculcate great moral truth, hut
farther than this, the comparison is rather one of
contrast than resemblance. In nothing is this con
trast more striking than in the circumstances under
which the two works were given to the world.—
The “Progress” was composed in prison by an un
tutored Preacher, who po-sessed neither learning or
reputation to give it celebrity. Rssclas was ushered
into existence under far different auspices. Its au
thor was the acknowledged leader of a literary cir
cle .common brilliance, who laid a'l the vast
his giant intellect under contribution
for the perfection of his crowning productions, yet
the humble dissenter has been able successfully to
dispute the palm with his liteiary manate, and
attain a degree of eminence which the greatest of
earth may well envy.
If we judge of them by their power of giving
pleasure, we are compelled to assign Bunyan the
high r place. True, this is not a correct test; but
it is the only one which a great majority of mankind
even apply. Few, we opine, would ever give Rasselas
a second perusal merely for the sake of the pleas
ure which it affords. It is filled with bright dia
monds of thought; but they are too much obscured
by thick encrustations of language to charm the
fancy or please the imaginition. Despite its grace
fully rounded periods and the truthfulness of its
sentiments, the continual succession of anglicized
latin will cloy the ear. The careful measure of
each sentence at first fails as smoothly as a sym
phony, yet, soon becomes as painful as a harsh dis
cord. How refreshing to turn from this, to the un
assumed smplicity of Bunyan, a child may read
and understand; yet the gravest Doctor of Divinity
may there find matter for his contemplation. There
is no appearance of effort to produce effect; but
throughout is seen that delightful graveness of soul
upon which the eye loves to dwell. He was what
men have rarely seen, a sage without bigotry, a
philosopher without egotism.
Another siandaid by which we may judge, is the
I >unt ot information which they impart. Both
„aese works, we said before, were designed as
eXhio live of human nature, and in them we natur
ally look for some discriminations of character.—
But in Rasselas, we look for this in vain. Johnson’s
personages are • eakers and actors ; not characters.
There are no distinctive features of individuality
shown forth. lie merely < mploys them to give ex
pressions to bis own opinions. The Princess and
her waiting Maid, the sage fmlac and her Robber
Chief all speak the same language of philosophic
wisdom. These sentiments alone give the work
interest or entitle it to merit; for the plot of the
story never succeeds in awaking curiosity. We
lay it aside with about the same feelings that we
would a sermon or religious hoinily. In this partic
ular, Bunyan has surpassed the most successful
novelists, and has even risen above the sublime gen
ious of Shaks}eare. They were only able to pro
duce temporal and local expositions of character,
but he entered the inner temple of the heart, and
painted it forth with such accuracy that the colors
will continue in their original freshness and
beauty as long ii.> men shall be human beings and
h-e actuated by human motives. We feel while
read-ng the pages of the “Progress” that we are
moving amid a world of realities. Worldly-wise
Man By-Ends and Talkative are the characters who
will always he found in all communities, and are
something more than creations of the imagination.
The Slough of Despond, Vanity Fair, and the De
lectable Mountains rise up before the mind in vivid
distinctness, while the enchanted garden of Aby
sinia floats away in dim obscurisy. 1 hey are land
marks as well known in ihe moral world as Niagra
or Gibralter in the physical.
Another tost of the merit in a work and one
higher and surer than these, is its efficacy to accom
plish good. Upon this, wc assign the Pilgrim’s Pro
gress a precedence not only of Rasselas, but of ev
ery other pr duction that has been written by un
inspired men. Save the Bible, no other book Iras
ever become so general’y known and so universally
appreciated. It has been clothed in hundreds of
’ tongues, and in them all has carried its moral pow
fir and energy. To whatever heathen shore the
Bible has been carried, this too has gone as its able
auxiliary in regenerating and evangelizing mankind.
It has soothed the anguished spirit of the Christian
ip rocmie&ti of deepest sorrow, and wraed him with
umv number Iris bli’vigd victims by myriads, and
every founder of an ism may reckon a host of fol
lowers; but every true Christian, whatever b his
sect or creed, holds Banyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress as
the second Book hi his hearts- 1 affections.
But we stop le#t the rea<b*r should charge us with
native aforethought, with intent to bore. Pardon
us. Weha ve indulged ire this dissertation fom no
5 -- p of-.pedantry. If however it should in
duce any one. to take up these go**! old books, and
give them another pru-’al, we shall consider our
iab n amply recompensed. L. L. Y.

Mr. WILLIAN J. NORTHEN, has been associat
ed with me the presnt year (1866) in the Mourn
Zion High School. In all my intercourse with him
I have uniformly found him kind and obliging; in
deed his whole deportment has been that of a gen
tleman and a Christian. In parting with Mr. N. it
affords me pleasure to bear testimony to his zeal,
industry and skill in teaching. And to add, I know
of no young man in whose abilities and fidelity as
an instructor, I have greater confidence,

HOTEL FOR SALE.
We very much need a first rate Hotel in Penfield,
and with a view to securing one, the subscriber now
offers his House, built for, and originally occupied as
a Hotel, to any one wishing to engage in such busi
ness. The House is large and commodious, embra
cing twelve comfortable rooms, with convenient pan
tries; is beautifully and pleasantly situated on a lot
of four acres, with every appurtenance necessary to
commence immediately. The business, I think, will
pay any one who will conduct it properly, since any
number of boarders desired may be obtained, whiie
the proceeds of a single Commencement occasion
will almost, if not quite, defray the annual expenses.
The subscriber is offering this property upon the
most reasonable terms, and any one w*ho really de
sires it, can hardly fail, upon application, to find
everything to his liking. By paying a few hundreds
cash, an arrangement can be made by which a pur
chaser can have credit for any number of yeaN, in
side of ten. VV. If. SEALS.
