Asi Evening Song.
BY ELI ZA COOK.
Father, above ! I pray to thco .
Before I make my rcs-t;
I seek Thee on my bonded knee ,
With warm and gratefu l breas-.t.
Pirst , let me thank Thee for my share
Of sweet and blessed health ;
Jt is a boon X would not spare
For worlds of shining wealth !
And next I thniik th y bounteous hand ,
That gives my " dail y bread,"
Thiit flings the corn upon the land ,
And keeps our table sproad .
. I thank Thee for each peaceful ni< . ht
That brings me soft repose ;
I thank Thee for the nicrnings 's li ght
That bids my eyes unclose.
I own thy mercy when I move
With limbs ail sound and free
That gail y bear me when I rove
Beside the moth and the bee.
I thank Thee for my kindred friends ,
So loving and so kind ;
Who tell me all that knowledge lends ,
To aid my heart and mind.
Ah ! let me value as I ou^ht
The lessons good men tench ,
To bear no malice in my thoug ht ,
Nor anger in my speech.
Father above ! oh , hear my prayer ,
And let me ever be
Worthy my earthl y parents ' care,
And'ti ue in serving tlice.
MORAL READINGS.
Few think of the loft y and divino liopos that the
belief in immortality opens to us. One of the purest
of these is an expectation of a more entire intelli-
gence—of the great gift of conversing with all wl.o
have lived before us—of questioning the past ape
siiid unravelling their dark wisdom. How much in
every man 's heart dies away nnuttered ! How lit tie
fit' what the sage knows , does the sa«e promnl ge !—
How many chords of the lyre within the poet 's heart
have been dumb in the world's ear[! All this un-
told , uncomniunieated , undreamed of hoard of v>is-
tlom and harmony, it may be the privilege of our
immortality to learn. The best part of genius the
world often knows not—the Plato buries much of
his lore within his cave—and this , the Hi gh Un-
known , is our heritage. With these thou g hts , how
easy it is for the partin g soul"to beautif y and adorn
(loath ! With how many garlands we can hang (lie
tom b! Nay, if we begin betimes , we can lenrn to
make the prospect of the grave the most seductive of
human visions—b y little and little we wean from its
contemp lation all that is gloomy and abhorrent—b y
little and liltle we have therein nil the most pleasing
wf our dreams. As the neg lected genius whispers
(h) his muse , " posterity shall know thee , and thou
nhiilt live when I am no more ,
1
' we find in this hal-
lowed and all promising future a recompense for
(;very disappointment in the pi rsent. ll is the be-
lief of (he Arabs ,that to the earliest places of human
worshi p there clings a guardian sanctit y, there the
wild bird rests not , the wild beasts may not wander ;
tj; is- the blessed spot on which the eye of God dwells
nnd which man 's best memories preserve. As with
tilio earliest places of worshi p, so it is with the latest
fi.'iven of repose—as with the spot where our first
ilnperfect adoration was" offered up, our first
glimpses of divinity indul ged , so should it be with
ftl'int where our full knowled ge of the Arch Cause
begins , and- we can pour forth a gratitude no longer5
td oudod by the troubles and eaies d earth. Surel y
(if any spot in the world be sacred ,it is that in whic h
grief ceases, and from which , if the harmonies of
eroation , if the voice within our hearts , if the irn-
Hulse which made man so easy a believer ii'i the
Hevelation , if these mock and fool its not with an
fsvorlasting lie ; we spring upon the untirin g wings,
of a pang less and serap hic life—those whom we !o\-
<)d around us; the aspirings that we nursed" fu l filled ;
our nature , universal intelli gence; our atmosp he re,
ste rnal love !
Beautiful Extracts.
What gives more exquisite pleasure than the
hliought , there is one heart that beats in unison with
our own—whose hopes , desires , purposes , are the
i*aiiie. ? In the darkest hour of adversity, in the
gloomiest cell , the man who-has one to love him ,who
has thrown her all for this world into his lap, will
not , cannot be miserable. lie may be an outcast
from the world , and his name may be a reproach to
Christendom ; still he has one source of happ iness—
i,t in , there is ono who loves him—who will never ,
never forsake him.
" When I look upon the tombs of the great , every
emotion of envy dies in me ; when 1 read the epi-
tap hs on the beautiful , every inordinate desire goes
out ; when I meet with the grief of parents upon
the tombstone , my heart melts with compassion ;
when I see the tomb of the parents themselvi s, I
consider the vanity of grieving for those whom we
tnust quickl y follow. When I see kings lying by
those who deposed them , when I consider rival wits
placed side by side ,or t he hol y men that divided the
world with tlit'ir contests and disputes , I reflect with
sorrow and astonish ment on the little competitio ns ,
factions and debates of mankind. When I read the
several dates of the tombs , of some that died yester-
day, and some six hundred years ago, I consider
that day when we shall all of us be contemporaries ,
and make our appearance together. "
Freedom may use her tongue , because speech is
both her weapon mid her spoil ; but despotism is
lost from the moment it attempts to vindicate its
ways.
When a gentleman marries a lad y, beautiful and
fich , his friends say : "he has married a pe ifeet Bird
Of Paradise." If the lad y happens to be poor, how-
ever, they say "u perfect Bird of Paradise , with the
exception of the feathers."
The Boston Post says : " There is a fellow at Na-
tuwt so aristocratic that lie cut his own acquain tance
the other day by mistake.1
'
To which the New York Evenin g Post responds :
•*There is no evidence that he was aristocratic. He
Bight have had good reasons for believing; the ««-
(j Hiuntauee disreputable. "

MARINE RAILWAY,
AT HYAMIS.
THE subscriber having associated himsel f with sever-
al others in the construction of a MARINE RAIL-
W AY, respectfully solicits the patronage of those inter-
ested in navi gation , whenever circumstances render it
necessary that their vessels should be "hauled upfor re-
pairs." Said Railway is situated in the safe and com-
modious Bay, known as Lewis' Bay, and a few rods to
the westward of Baxter's wharf, formerl y known as
Gage's wliarf, where vessels can find a spacious and safe
harbor , sheltered from the winds at all seasons of the
year. These facts being a great inducement for vessels
to winter here, every facility will be at hand for repair-
ing in the spring, the expense of which the subscriber
pled ges himself will not exceed what is usuall y charged
at other pla ces. Competent and skillfu l blacksmiths,
caulkers , shi p-carpenters , ri ggers, and sail-makers , can
be emp loyed at as moderate prices as elsewhere. Ves-
sels wintering in the Bay with the. intention of under-
going repair , will be seen to , and their sails stored free
of expense.
Havin g the interest and convenience of others in
view on the one han d, as well as compensation , nett profit
and making money on the other , the subscriber hopes
that the experiment will pro ve a mutual benefit.

This is -a happy world—who says contrary is a
eynic. There is every thing to make us happy, and
contribute to our enjoyment. The man who has a
good heart sees pleasure where a bad person sees
nothing but gloom. Who is the most cheerful and
contented man—he who is most honoured and has
the. most wealth? No. It is he who lias nothing
but a kind heart. Nothing ruffles his temper or dis-
tftirbs his serenity. It is he whose mind is led from
nature up to nature 's Godr— and every day he is con-
t&uted and happy as it is possible for a man to be,—
Depend upon it the world is a beautifu l one , and
contains a thousand sources of "enjoyment , wh ich
fehey can only see or feel whose hearts are pure , and
whose lives correspond with the word of denial
feruth. Such persons have a perennial fountain o!
enjoyment wiihin them that gladdens all around
lihum.

To Owners, Masters and Builders of Ships.
WE
beg to call your attention to a new article for
Shi p's fastening, which we believe to be "-reatlv
superior to any material now used for that purpose—
YELL OW METAL BOLTS.
Although new in this market, they have been in ac-
tive use in all the Eng l ish SBip 'Yards and Docks for a
long period of time .
The manufacturers, whose agents we are, were in-
duced to make a small qua ntity last Spring, by the de-
sire of several shi p-builders here to obtain a samp le of
them for their own use. The builders who have tried
them , are so entirel y satisfied with their character and
worth , that the manufacturers have resolved upon mak-
ing them in large quantities-and offering them for sale.
Being firmer than the Copper Bolts , t hey bear much
harder driving - ; and their composition prevents the
formation of the verdigris so much comp lained of as
natural to Copper. Their resistance to corrosion caus-
es them to wear more uniforml y and lo nger than Cop-
per Bolts , and they must have the preference over them.
Thei r present price is about twenty per cent, less
than Copper.
We are now prepared to receive orders for all sizes
and kinds used in shi p buildin g", and can furnish an ar-
ticle as perfect as can be -made.
We shall be pleased to show you these Bolts. and re-
spectfull y ask you to examine them at, our Store, No.
