De-sroted to Christianity, Morality, the Interests of Sah-bath Schools, Social Improvement, Temperance, Education, and Cjreneral Ne-wrs. "BEHOLD, I BEING TOU GOOD TIBINGS OV GEEAT JOY .... ON EARTH PEACE, GOOD WILL TOWARD MEN." VOL. 17. DAYTCN, 0., SATURDAY, OCT. 5,18G0 NO. 22. ORIGINAL POETRY. Writtenfar lite Gasptl Ha-ald. Twilight Itfusings. The embers on the hearth turn low. The cricket's merry voice is heard, And evtry sighing leaf, is by .The gentle, evening brccaes stirred. The distant Nightingale's shrill voice Is heard within the leafy grove As through the lofty forest trees, He—mindful ofhis freedom—roves. Sweetly indeed his evening cry, Doth fall upon my listening ear, No other songster's happy notes, Doth seem to this lone heart, bo dear. Ohl merry warbler, blithely chirp! Thou welcon e harbinger of spring I Amid the silence of the eve. Your iUalter's blissful praises sing. The "Queen of Night" o'er quiet earth Looks down with face serene and mild, To guide the way worn traveler homo, • Who wandersthrough the trackless wild. Fair Cynthia, hail! nigiit's orb so bright! The clouds caunol witlstand thy ga«o. But sink in depths of ether blue, t And meltat thy approaching rays. And yet'midst all theae scenes of joy— 'Mid prospects fair, and objects bright, . My eyes are dim with flowing tears— Ahl J eg, my heart is sad to-night. To-day, Fvo wandered through the aisles Of grass-grown graves, both new and old; I've gazEd upon the resting-place, Of forma onoe fair, butnow allcold. Enclosed within tho "narrow house," Beneath my feet and mold ring here, Lio those whom God has called away— Acquaiutances, aud kindred dear. Unconsciously my footsteps turn. Not caring whither I should stray; Bnt listless by I rove, until I stand beside the lifeless clay , Of him, who once in years goue by, .Essayed to teach ray youthful mind: Who strove, instructions new to give, Witb council's, and with words so kind. I looked upon his wasting form— Tho feeble steps—tho sunken eyes, Full well I knew his race was run; Ero long the summons from on lu|r,h— Called him away. Ohl cruel Death I ¦ Must one so good— Ah' murm'ring's cease' I will net, will not weep for him; His soul I trust now rests in peace. Oh when this moxtal lifo shall end- When our career on eaithis o'er; May Teaohfrs, Scholars all meet, where Wo 11 take the parting band no more, Eaymond, Union Co., 0. Ctildhooc. She felt a wother-ftftnt about the world, And still went seeking, like a bleating lamb Lett out at night, in shutting up the fold, As restless as a nest-d^serted bird, Grown chill through something being away, Though what it knows not.—Broimiiu;. Flattery. It ia a, ma.x;im iu tho s:hools. That "F'attery'a the food of fools," And whoso likes such airy meat. Will soon have nothing else to eat, ORIGINALITIES. Written for the t}os}iel Herald. It Costs Too Much, Having a IciBure hour, I will say a fow v?ord8 to those readers of tho Herald who desire to servo God in as cheap a manner as possible. Ono man says "tho Herald costs too mueh," and therefore ho -will not take it. Other papers can bo got for a less ainount, and honco the Herald is crowded out of thousands of families -who profess to lovo tho principles of the "Chris¬ tian Denomination." The st^e instead of the principles of the paper is looked at by fur too many. I have seen some, yes, many professed Christians, -who could not afford to tako tho Herald, but who ivould very gladly subscribe for tho "J^ow York Ledger." Such persons ought to buy and eat brand instead of flour, because a great¬ er quantity, in bulk, can bo got for the same amount ol money. Crows may bo bought at a much lower rate than chickens; therefore, they ought to mako that delicate fowl tako the place of poor chick. Tho greater part of those per.sons who refuse tho Horald on account of its cost, pay from five to ten cents each week for that blessed weed, TobatJco. I aro uot intending to make this a lecture on tho uso of To¬ bacco, but I do hate to hear a profess¬ ed Christian, with a big "quid", in his moiith, ttill rne tho Herald costs tbo much, I chanced io sit down for a few mo¬ ments in a store, a short timo ago,and whilo thero a' in an camo in to make a trade. He brought one dozen of eggs to exchange for goods. Ho had a siqk daughter at hoine, who needed some crackers. The storekeeper askod liiin what he would have for his eggs, upon which ho replied hi? iniist havo a "plug ottobarkef," (xnd tho "rest" in crackers, for his sick "gal." With eggs at seven cents per dozen, and tobacco at five cents a "plug," yCu can imagine what a great lot of crackers he carried home to his sick girl,' This man, is a pro- fe.saod Christian, and a member of ono of our Churches in an adjoining coun¬ ty. He is also one of tho number who cannot afford to tako tho Herald, be¬ cause it costs too much, Tho "tohark- er" mu,st bo had at any. rate, H any man is bonofited by tho uso of tho wood I have nothing to say, but when it must be first, last and mid¬ dle, and exclude ,i good religious paper from the family, 1 say quit it at once, I am sorry to bo obliged to make such statements as these, but they are facts, and Buoh as cannot be denied, Yos, indeed; thero are many professed Christians who care more about their tobacco than they do about the princi¬ plea of the church with which thoy stand counocted. This ought not to be 80 , but so it is, O, that God may speed tho day when men will use rea¬ son, and look to tho interests of the Church and tho rising generation. I do sincerely hope I maynever—never, never, havo another professed Chris¬ tian, with a "big quid" in his mouth, and tho juice running out at each cor¬ ner, attempt to toll mo tho "Herald costs too much," A, W. Tripp, Middletown, July llth, 18(!0, Wrilleii for the Oosyei Herald. "The Mystery of Godliness." The above phrase occurs in a passage of Paul's first Epistle to Timothy, in tho first chapter and.the 14th., lath., and Itith. verses. The. moro ignorant portion of Trinitarians still adduce it to jirovo tho Supremo deity of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Tho object of the chapter in which the passage is contained, is to givcdirccLioiis respect¬ ing tlie qualifications and duties of the officers of a Christian congregation, or what is now termed a church. Paul first points out tho qualifieations of the Bishops, and then of tho Deacons; and concluding with tho reason why he gavo theso instructions to Timothy, contained in tho passage under con¬ sideration. With these remarks, wo present tho passage with its truo read¬ ing, a literal translation and correct grammatical construction as follows. "Theso things I write to you, hoping to come to you shortly, but ifl should bo deliiyed, in order that j-ou may know how youought to conduct among a family of God, which is a congrega¬ tion ofthe living God; and confessedly, the great secret of godliness is a pillar and foundation ofthe truth, wldch has been revealed to man—was justified in Spirit^ooked into by mosseiigors —proclaimed to nations—believed by a world—received with glory." The above passage 'is just one com¬ plete and entire sentenco, and should never have been divided into fcwo sen¬ tences or three verses, ISTow let us at¬ tend to tho meaning which the apostle intended to convey in this passage.
