AUTUMN WOODS.
Ere, in the northern gale,
The summer tresses of the trees are gone,
The woods of Autnmn, all around our vale,
Have pat their glory on.
The mountains that unfold .
In their wide sweep, the colored landscape rourd,
Seem groups of kings in purple and in gold,
That guard the enchanted ground,
I roam the woods that erown
The upland, where the mingled splendors glow,
Where the gay company of trees look down
On the green ficlds below.
My steps are not alone
In these bright walks: the sweet sonthwest, at play,
Flies rustling, where the painted leaves are strown
Along the winding way.
And far in Heaven, the while,
The sun, that sends that gale to wander here,
Pours out on the fair earth his quiet smile,
The sweetest of the yeur.
Where now the solemn shade,
Verdure and gloom where many branches meet;
So graceful when the noon of summer wade
The valleys sick with heat?
Let in through all the trees, y
Come the strange rays: the forest depths are bright;
Their sunny colored foliaze in the breeze
Twinkles in beams of light.
The rivulet, late unseen,
When bickering through the shrubs its waters run,
Shines with the image of its golden sereen,
And glivinerings of the sun.
But ‘neath von erimson tree,
Lover to listening maid might breath his flame,
Nor mark, wihin its roseate canopy
Her blush of maiden shame.
Oh, Auntunm ! why =0 soon
Depart the gentle haes thatizake the forest glad;
The gentle wind and thy fair sunny moon,
And leave the wild and sad!
Ah, 't were a lot too blest
Forever in thy colored <hade to stray ;
Amidst the Kisses of the soft sonthwest
To rove and dream for aye.
And leave the vain low strife.
That makes men mad--the tag for wealthand power,
The passions and cares that wither life.,
And waste iis hittle hour.
Stliscellancous.
From Bentley's Miscellany for September.
THE MICROSCOPE.
EY H. R. ADBISON.,
It is now many years ago since Mr. Clarke
was sent out by the * Society for the Propo
gation of Christian Knowledze,” to Bengal,
in order to convert as many of benighted In
dians to Christianity as possible. His talents
were of the highest order, his zeal well known;
it was, therefore, most sanguinely expected
that his mission would be crowned with suc
cess.
Ou his arrival, the Governer General, find
ing that his means were sinall, and truly sym
pathizing in the feelings of those who thus
endeavored to awake a sense of the heathen
world to * light and life,”” gave him the direc
tion of the Caleutta free school, and one or
two other minor posts, which considerably
increased the worthy missionary’s income.
After several ineifectual attempts to convert
the natives, poor Clarke returned in despair
to Caleutta, teeling more than half inclined to
sail for Enrope, so much did he take his re
peated failures to heart. He was, however,
dissuaded from this step, and applying himself
assiduously to the management -of his schol
ars, he strove to banish from his mind the
thorn which rankled there.
One day our missionary learned, to his great
joy. that a Brahmin of the very first rank had
arrived in the metropolis. Determined to
bring matters to an issue, Clarke wrote to
him and, begged him to meet him on a certain
day, when he would undertake to convince
him (the Hindoo priest) of the errors of his
taith.
To this the Brahimin consented, and at the
time appointed the Heathen and the Christian
champion met to discuss, in the presence of
several witnesses, the merits of their respective
creeds.
As is usual in polemical discussions, the
controversy was opened by several inconse
quential queries and answers. For hall an
hour weither party had put forth a startling
proposition : the wily lndian taking care to
confine himself to the defensive. Tired at
length by this scene, Clarke suddenly and
abruptly asked him,
¢ Are you lorbidden to eat anything in which
animal life exists 1™
“lam.”
* Have you ever broken through this law?”
¢ Never.”
“ May vou not unconsciously have been led
into this crime 1™
* Impossible.”
“ Will you swear to it I”
¢ Most solemnly I do.”
* Do you ever eat Pomegranates 1"
s Dailv.”
“ Brin'g me some of the fruit, then,” rejoin
ed Clarke, turning to a servant. His order was
complied with—the pomezranates were bro’t.
* Choose one.™
The Brahmin did so.
¢ Cut it in two.”
With this direction he complied.
“ Place it here,” and Clarke assisted him to
put it beneath a microscope.
« Now look at it."”
The Brahmin did so : but no sooner did he
apply his eye, than he started back with af
fright ;—the fruit was perfectly alive with an
imaleule. The puzzied Hindoo drew out the
pomegranate, (which, perhaps my readers are
not aware, is more closely filled with insects
than any other fruit,) looked at it, examined it,
replaced it, and again beheld the myriads of
living creatures with which it was rife. He
felt it with his hand, to convince himself that
there was no trick in the affair—then suddenly
drawing himself up, Lie slowly uttered,
“ Bus-such hi.” (Enough—it is true.”)
* You acknowledge, then, that you have
sinned unconsciously '—that every thing be
being filled with animalenle, invisible to the
naked eye, you can neither eat nor drink with
out committlng a erime !’
The abashed Hindeo bowed.
*Shall I show vou how full of similar in
sects every drop of water is!”
* No! I have seen enough.”
“ Do you desire further proof!”
T have a favor to ask.”
“What isit? 1 ean, I will grant it.”
“ Give me your microscope. 1 cannot buy
it; give it me.” el
Clarke paused for a moment, for he had that
morning paid ten guineas for it; and, being a
poor man, he could ill afford to part with it.
But as the Brahmin was urgent, almost to en
treaty, he at length consented. (especially as
he thought the other would afford him in re
turn some curiosity of equal value,) and pre
sented it to him.
The Brahmin took it, gave one look of tri
umph round the hall, and suddenly raising his
arm, dashed the microscope into a thousand
atoms on the marble floor.
* What do you mean by this?” exclaimed
Clarke, in undisguised astnoishment.
“ It means Sir Christian,” replied the Hin
doo, in a eold, grave tone, *it means that I
was a happy, a good, aproud man. By means
of yonder mstrument you have robbed me of
all futare happiness. You have condemned
me to descend to my grave wretched and mis
erable !
With these words the unfortune Brahmin
quitted the hall, and soon after retired up the
country. e

hand goods that sell at prime cost.
A StorM oN THE ALrs.—Facing about, the
r landscape was completely changed ; here six
, thousand five hundred feet below us, was spread
- out the whole valley of Interlaken, withall its
! villages, and with its two lakes that appeared,
in their emerald frames, like two immense
mirrors, in which the Deity might behold
. himself, from the sky. In the distance be
' yond, towering in sombre masses athwart the
! firmament, rose Mt. Pilate and Mt. Right,
| placed on either side of Lucerne, like the
| giants in the Arabian Nights, to guard some
i marvellous city.
! Willer here laid his hand on my shoulder.
i I turned partly around, and following with my
i eye, the direction of his finger, saw”™ that we
i were about to witness that, which next to a
* storm at sea—is the most imposing object in
nature.—l mean a storm on the mountains.
The two clouds that were freighted with the
coming tempest detached themselves, one
from the summit of the Wetterhorn, and
the other from the side of the Yung-frau, and
silently advanced like two opposing armies
that reserve their fire until they come within
point blank range. Although these black va
por masses fled towards each other with great
rapidity, not a breath of air was stirring, and
profound silence reigned ; and all nature seem
ed to stand mute and motionless in dread of
the approaching shock.
At length, a flash of lightniug, followed by
a detonation that in its swelling and prolonged
echoes, rang like the peal of the last trump,
announced that the antagonist clouds had
gained the requisite proximity, and the com
bat began. Lmediately the clonds crossed
one above the other, exchanging as they pass
ed, a tremendous blaze of electric artillery.
From all points of the horizon, nebule of va
rious forms and colors hastened on like regi
ments eager to take part in the afiray, and
precipitating themselves into the melee aug
mented the dense mass of vapor. Soon, the
entire south was on fire and the portion of the
sky occupied by the sun became as a confla
gration. The whele landscape was fantasti
cally illuminated ; the Lake of Thun seemed
to roll waves of flames; the Lake of Brieni.
- was tinged with green, and the lakes of the
four cantons changed from their natural blue
to a ghastly white. The wind now increased
o in violence, and rent fragments of the clouds
~from the main body, and thus separated from
" the common centre, wandered in various di
rections, and, as if by a given signal, precipi
tated themselves simultaneously to the earih.
' We next felt a few drops of rain, and then
-were almost immediately enveloped in vapor.
Naurve qui peut was now the order of the day,
aud we made a hastv retreat to the Inn.
The storm beat about this frail building
with ominous fury for a time ; but it gradually
descended leaving us in a clear, ealm sunshine,
while the strife of the elements beneath our
feet was sustained as fiercely as ever.
Duries or A Joursanist.—No man re
quires a larger range of intellect, more varied
acquirements, or greater strenzth of character,
than the conductor of a public journal. Of
course, we allude to one who acts with a full
sense of the dignity and worth of his calling,
and in the conscientious desire to discharge its
duties. Neither statesman, lawyer, nor di
vine, moves in a more extended sphere, or has
more occasion for the use of the noblest facul
ties both of mind and heart. He stands in im
mediate contact with the public mind. He
turnishes the intellectual aliment of the people.
He gives a tone to public sentiment ; is a lead
er of public opinion; and the guardian and
guide of public moerals.
Thousauds of men, each morning and eve
ning, listen to his voice, are moved by his per
suasions, are corrected by his rebukes, or cor
rupted by his licence. The characters of men
are in some degree placed in his hands. He
may elevate the bad, or traduce the good.
te can stimulate the worst passions of inflam
ed thmes :or give an impulse to wise and be
neficent movements. This influence difiers
from that of others who operate upon the pub
lic mind, in that while theirs is confined to par
ticular and distant occasions, he acts inces
santly. The orator agitates only while he is
speaking : the preacher is hemmed in by the
walls of his church and the limits of a Sab bath
day ; the statesman seldom steps out of his
burean ; the man of science is fixed amon ¢ his
retorts and erucibles ; and the teaclier has an
existence only in his school room.
But the editor is perpetually at work. As
the mails cairy his speculations from one city
to another, and froin one State to another, his
action spreads hke the wavesof a pool, in
concentric circles, and before the last ripple
has subsided, the waters at the centre are a gain
disturbed.—Even while he sleeps, his thou ghts
are awake, they are difiusing good orevil, they
are entering other minds, to mould them to a
better or worse conditicu.
“They rest not, stay not,—on, still on they wing
Their light"—
and whether benign or pestiferous, are proclue
ing their inevitable impressions.—Greal West-

TOUCHING.
Here isa beautiful thing from the pen of
Myrs. Cornwall Baron Wilson : A
* Please, my lady, buy a nosegay or besi ow
a trifle,” was the address of a pale, emaciated
looking woman, holding a few withered flow
ers in her hiand, to a lady who sat on the bench
at Brighton, watching the vlue waves of the
receding tide. “*I have no half pence, my good
woman,” said the lady, looking up from the
novel she was perusing with a listless gaze ;
“if I hadl would give them to you.” I
am a poor widow, with three helpless children
depending on me ; wonld you bestow atrifle to
help us onour way I * I told you 1 had no
half’ pence,” reiterated the lady, somewhat
pettishly. ¢ Really,” she added, as the poor
applicant turned meekly away, ** this is worse
than the streets of London ; they should have
a police on the shore to prevent such annoy
ance,” were the thoughtless dictates of the
weap. * Mamma,” said a blue-eyed bay
who was lying on the beach at the lady’s fert,
flinging pebbles into the sea, 1 wish you
had a penny; for the poor woman does lcok
hungry, and you know e are going to ha've a
nice dinner, and you have promised me a ¢ lass
of wine.” The nearT of the lady answered
the appeal of her child: and with a blus:h of
shame crimsoning her cheek at the tac'it re
proof his artless words conveyed, she olyened
her reticule, placed half a crown in his: tiny
hands, and in another moment the boy was
bounding along the sands on his errand of mer
cy. In afew seconds he returned, his eyes
t sparkling with delight, and his countcnace
! glowing with health and beauty. *Oh ! mam
- ma,the poor woman was so thankful ; she want
ed to turn back, but I would not let her; and
she said, God bless the noble lady, and you,
too, my pretty lamb: my children will now
have bread for these two days, and we shall
2o on our way rejoicing.” The eyes of the
lady glistened as she heard the recital of her
child, and her earT told her that its dictates
bestowed a pleasure the cold resoning of -the
#EAD could never bestow.”
A most moving incident, illustrative of the
extraordinary strength, as well as attachment
of the Arab horse, is given by Lamartine, in
his beautiful Travels in the East:
« An Arab chief, with his tribe, had attack
ed in the night a caravan of Damascus, and
plundered it ; when loaded with their spoil,
however, the robbers were overtaken in their
return by some horsemen of the Pacha of
Acre, who killed several, and bound the re
mainder with cords. In this state of bondage
they brought one of the prisoners, named
Abou el Marock, to Acre, and laid him bound
hand and foot, wounded as he was, at the en
trance of their tent, as they slept during the
night. Keptawake by the pain of his wounds,
the Arab heard his horse’s neigh at a little
distance, and, being desirous to stroke, for the
last time, the companion of his life, he dragged
himself, bound as he was, to his horse, which
was picketed at a little distance. ¢ Poor
friend,” said he, * what will you do among the
Turks? You will be shut up under the roof
of a khan, with the horses of a pacha, or an
aga : no longer will the women and children of
the tent bring vou barley, camel’s milk, or
dourra, in the hollow of their hand ; no longer
will you gallop free as the wind of Egypt in
the desert; no longer will yon cleave with your
bosom the waters of the Jordan, which cool
your sides, as pure as the foam of your lips.
If I amn to be a slave, at least may you go
free. Go, return to our tent which you know
so well ; tell my wife that Abou el Marck will
return no more ; but put your head still in the
folds of the tent, and lick the hands of my be
loved children.” With these words, as his
hands were tied he undid with his teeth the
fetters which held the courser bound, and set
him at liberty ; but the noble animal, on re
ceiving its freedom, instead of bounding away
to the desert, bent his head over his master
and, seeing him in fetters and on the ground,
took his clothes gently in his teeth, and set off
at full speed towards home. Without ever
resting, he made straight for the distant but
well-known tent, in the mountains of Araba.
He arrived there in safety, and laid his master
safe down at the feet of his wife and children,
and immediately dropped down dead with
faticue. The whole tribe mourned him ; the
poets celebrated his fidelity ; and his name
is still constantly in the mouths of the Arabs
of Jericho.
This beautiful anecdote paints the manners
and the horses of Arabia better than a thousand
volumes. It is unnecessary to say, after it,
that the Arabs are, and ever will be the first
horsemen, and have the finest race of horses in
the world.
VISIT TO FATHER MATTHEW.
We copy the following interesting letter
from Rev. J. P. Durbin,adistinguished preach
er of the Methodist Church, now travelling in
Europe, from the last number of the Christian
Advocate and Journal :
* But among all the attractions at Cork, the
Rev. Theobald Matthew, the apostle of tem
perance in Ireland, was to me the most attrac
tive ; and I had the good fortune to find him
at his own house, just returned from Limerick.
In reply to my letter which I sent him, he des
patched a messenger to our hotel, saying he
would be pleased to see me at any hour. |
waited on him at half-past six o’clock.—Upon
entering the narrow hall of his plain but com
modious house. I found the room on the ground
floor full of very plain people, all standing a
round the secretary, who was making amost
vehement speceh to” them on the benefits of
temperance. He was showing how it increas
ed the vigor and power of enduring fatigue ;
and illustrated it by a boat-race which had just
taken place between three crews: one, whis
key drinkers; one, ale or beer drinkers; and
one, cold water drinkers. As he advanced in
his animated declamation, he raised his huge
fist aloft, saying the tee-totallers came out first;
the ale drinkers next : and the nasty, dirty nun
and whiskey drinkers last ; which declaration
he confirmed, by bringing down his lion’s paw
with tremendous weight upon the huge record
book containing the four millions of names of
those who have taken the pledge from Father
Matthew. It really was a novel and interes
ting scene.
I soon learned that the secretary was enter
taining the crewd unti! Father Matthew could
come down from his tea, and adniinister the
pledge to them. In afew minutes he caine
down: and, having spoken to us with much
kindness and affection, he‘turned to the mot
ley group, and asked if they wished to take the
pledge. 'They came forward en masse, and
kneeled down before him. He said: * Itis
all for your good ; many now are decent, well
clad, and comfortable, who, before they took
the pledge, were naked, hungry, and wretched:
say after me. * [ promise, by Divine assistance,
to abstain from all intoxienting liguors, and, by
my example and advice, to endeavor to prevail
on others to do the same.” He then added,
May God give you grace to keep your prom
ise ; may God grant you all temporal and spir
itual blessings.” Then, putting his hand on
the head of each, he said, “ God bless you.”
They rose from their knees, and he directed
their names to be inscribed in the great book.
We witnessed the same scene next morning
at ten o'clodk, in the same room. It is always
full when he isin town, and a secretary is in
waiting to record the names. The general im
pression is, that it is more sacred and binding
to take the pledge from Father Matthew than
from any other. lence but few take it of
others, and always take it again of Father Mat
thew whenever he comes within from ten to
thirty miles of them. There were persons
present when we were in the room, who had
come thirty miles to take the pledge. e in
formed us that he had seen thirty thousand
people kneeling before him atonce in the open
ficlds, and their repeating the pledge was like
little thunder—llike the sound of many waters.
The pledge is understood to be perpetual, and
the party may not dissolve the obligation at
pleasure. He may disregard and violate it, as
some do 3 but he canuot, as we express it, wilh
draw. There is evidently a religious obliga
tion attached to the pledge, founded, to some
extent, in the authority and sanctity of the par
ty administering it, as well as in the consent
of the party taking it. This impression on the
mind of the taker of the pledge is strengthen
>d by the fact that Father Matthew has no
pastoral charge, and is not subject to any bish
op or ecclesiastical authority in Ireland; but is
by special letter from the Pope, Commissary
Apostolic for Ireland ; that he may prosecute
his great work without let or hindrance from
any church dignitary.”
PERSONAL APPEARANCE OF JEFFERSON.—
The Hon. William Sullivan, of Boston, some
years since published an interesting volume of
¢ Familiar Letters on Public Characters.”
The work was prepared with great care, and
the sketches were faithful as they were beauti
ful. In remarking on the declaration of In
dependence, and the author of the memorable
document, he thus describes its author:
*When Mry. Jefferson came to Philadelphia
in March, 1796, he was about 44 years of age.
His personal appearance as now recollected,
was this: He was a thin tall man, over six feet
in stature, neither full nor thin in body ; his
limbs were long and loosely jointed, his bair
of a reddish tinge, combed loosely over the
forehead and at the sides, and tied behind ; his
~complexion was light or sandy; his forehead
‘rather high and broad ; Lis eyebrows long and
straight ; his eyes blue, his cheek bones high,
his face broad beneath his eyes, his chin long
and his mouth large ; his dress was a black
~coat and light under clothes. He had no pol
ish of manners, but a simplicity and sobriety
of deportment ; ho was quiet and unobtrusive,
and yet a stranger would perceive that he was
in the presence of one who was not a common
man. His manner of conversing was calm
and deliberate, and free from all gesticulation :
but he spoke like one who considered himself
entitled to deference, and as though he meas
ured what he said by some standard of self
complacency. The expression of his face
was that of thoughtfulness and observation,
and certainly not that of openness and frank
ness. \When speaking he did not look at his
auditor, but cast his eye towards the ceiling,
or any where but to the eye of his auditor.
He had already become a peirsonage of some
distinction and an object of curiosity, to avery
young man.” 2
{{7= Peace, contentment and love, cement
ed by virtue, are never dear at any price.
They are of more value than riches or fame ;
for both, without them, are of little value to
the possessor.
