POETRY.
WE ARE G1-"tO\VlNG OLD.
We are growing old——liow the thought will rise
When a glance is backward cast,
On some long-remcl.~t-red spot thatlies
in the silence ofthe past:
ltniay he the shrine of our early vows,
Or the tomb of early tears;
But it seems like a liir-offisle to us,
In the stormy sea of years.
Uli, u ide and wild are the waves that part
Our steps from its greeniiess now,
And we miss tliejoy of many a heart,
And the lights ofmany a brew;
For deep o’er many a stately bark
Have the whelming billows rolled,
That steered with us from that early mark-
Oh. friends, we are growing old.
Old in thcdinincss and the dust
Of our diiily toils and cares, “ 5
Old in the wrecks oflove and trust
Wliicli ou_r burdened memory bears.
Eacli fUl'l'I) may wear to the passing gaze
The bloom oflifc’s ficsliriess yet,
And beams may brigliten our latter days,
But oh, the clianges we have seen,
lo the far and winding way:
The graves in our path that have grown green,
And the locks that li-ave growd gray!
The winters still on our own may spare
The sable or the gold:
But we saw their snows on brighter hair-
And friends, we are growingoltl.
We have gained the world’s cold wisdom now,
lVc have learned to pause and fear;
’-tit wliere are the living fouiits whose flow
Was a joy oflieart to hear?
We have won the wealth ofmany a clinic,
And the lore ofmany a page;
Butwhcre is the hope that saw in time
But its boundless heritage?
\Vill it come again when the violet wakes,
And the woods their yotith renew ?
We have stood in the light ofsunnv brakes,
Where the bloom was deep and blue;
And our souls might joy in the spring time then,
But the-‘joy was faint and cold,
Forit ne’er could give us the youth again

REV. DR. TYNG’S SI’lil'ICI'l. ‘
The following is a brief sketch of the Rev. Dr.
Tyng’s speech in the N. Y. Convention, upon a’
resolution relating to Bishop ()nderdonk’s posi-I
tion and prospects in the Church. We take the‘
extracts from the N. Y. Express.
“I would ask, can this person be restor-
ed to the episcopal jurisdiction in this di-
ocese! Ought he to be restored thereto’!
Dr. Tyng said that character did n_ot de-
pend on penitence. It might induce a cor-
dial restoration to private affection and re-
gard. \Ve may, as individuls, welcome
him back, though a wanderer from duty.
And the time may come, (andl pray God
it may come cai'ly,) when we may receive
him to our hearts with restored and full
affection; when we may meet him, like

would bestow her hand, she gave them no.
lice to call upon her at a certain hour on
a stated day, and each state his claims in
the presence of the others. At 'the ap-
pointed time the lovers arrived. Four of
them were confident of success, but the
fifth had a downcast look, and si__q'hed when
he gazed upon the object of his_devotion.
‘Geiitlemen,’ said she, ‘you have lion-

When it came E’s time to speak, there
was a pause. All eyes were turzred to-

‘Well,’ said the beauty, ‘what say you,
Mr. E.’
‘Alas!’ was the reply, ‘I yield to these

into it. loud laugh, and exclaimed in one
lvoice——‘So do me !—I love you to distrac-

and as is usual, with ignorant people, in
such cases, thought they were really doing

:ii.l;ed freer,’ \Vl_llif her hair nppc_a_ijed_to
be comingout again thicker than ever.—
As a natural consequence, she felt very
great confidence in the medicines; and
when the first lot of Balsam was all used
she sent her husband to get the bottle
filled again. The doctor asked the man
how the medicine operated!
‘O, grnndly !’ replied the husband, ‘my
wife’s cough’s e’en a’most gone, and her
hair is all coming back again as fiery as
ever.’
‘Ali,’ said the doctor, ‘that’s the way
my medicines always work. Tliei-e is no
mista‘ e about tbein. They're just what
l call them, the ‘;.=reatest wonders ofthe
age.’ I ’spose y0ti’ve no objection to
give me. your affidavit !’
- _ ‘Oh no,’ replierl the man, ‘that’s just
what my wife wants me to do.’
The couple then repaired to the l\layor’s
office where an affidavit was drawn tip,
sworn to, and witnessed. On returning to
the doctor’s shop, the quack took up the
empty bottle for the purpose of refillingit.
‘Why, what can this mean !’ be ex-
claimed, in some astonishment; and then
after looking at the label, he smelt of it
again.
though the label says so, but the ‘Hair Lo-
tioii’!’
‘Hair Lotion or not,’ replied the man
pointing to the bottle, ‘that's what cured
my wife’s dreadful cough, and the stuffiu
the other bottle at home is what made her
hair grow again!’
‘Strange! strange !’ repeated the doctor
‘with a puzzled countenance ; ‘I don’t
know what to make of it. VVill you be
kind enough sir, just to step back and get
‘me the other bottle—the Hair Lotion, I
mean !’
The man did so, and soon returned with
the L0t.ion bottle. The doctor took it and
upplied his nose to the mouth.
‘And this,’ said he, ‘is just as surely the
Balsam as the other is the Lotion. Den’t
you think there was some mistake on
your part, sir’! Are you sure that what
was in this bottle made your wife’s hair
grow again ’!’ .,
‘Just as sartin as I’m alive,’ replied the
man ; ‘for I always turned it out myself,
while Betsey held the spoon.’
The doctor sat down in a chair, and
laying a finger upon his nose seemed bur-
ied in profound thought.
‘Ah! l see!’ he at length exclaimed, and
jumping up, he filled the empty bottle
again. ‘There sir,’ said be, giving It to
the man, and hurrying him to the door;
‘all’s right sir; I was a little bothered,
that’s all. Call again when that’s gone,
and you shall have another for nothing.’
As soon as he had shut the door on his
customer, the doctor called in his ‘confi-
dential’ man from the laboratory.’
‘Meshes,’ said he, ‘we’ve made a great
mistake in our guess work, after all. I’ve
been studying very hard lately, and have
just discovered that our Lotion is the
stuff to cure the coughs and the consump-

‘That is. unlucky,’ replied the man, ‘for
the retiirniiig son to his father, and say of
,bim, ‘He was dead and is alive again, he
[was lost, and is found.’ But repentance
can never restore 7-Ilbfic confidence As
well might you attempt to gather up the
fragments of the crystal vase which you
have dashed at your feet, and tojpresent it
perfect to the scrutenizing eye of the be-
holder in its original be-aiity, as to seek to
repair, in the character of a minister of‘
Christ's religion, such a terrible breach as
this. You may load your table with res-
olutions,_sir, but all with no effect. They
will not turn the frown on a singlebrow to‘
‘a smile, when he enters the House ofGod:
nor bring a single knee to bow lieforeliim
to receive his paternal benediction. No
canons, no declarations, no plans of man’s
device can ever restore him thus.
Could I reach his private ear,—could I
- approach him with the affection and respect
ll have always had for him,—could I put
l-around him the arms of christian love, to
lsllleld him from the flood of ccntumely
! that is surging over his head, I could do no
: more for him, no greater kindness, than to
ventreat and advise him to retire; and then
-to appeal to that sensitivencss to reproach
and public rebuke which was ever so strik-
ing :1 characteristic of his, to induce him
to follow my advice. -But I am not of his
councils. I can say nothing, do nothing,
but pray that some blessed influence from
above may snperinduce him to make the
lpersonal sacrifice necessary for the resus-
citation from death ofa body,‘ of which,
for years, he has been the shining light,
and the dimming of which we all with
tears deplore. As to the restoration of
public confidence,the idea is futile. There
is not a congregation, sitting in a church
in the diocese, as the case now stands that
would meet him as a minister; and ifthere
were, to the church as a body, his resto-
ation would be most injurious. VVith no
benefit can he ever minister therein again.
Can he ever command its confidence !-
Can its children be ever conscientiously
taught by their‘.-parents to look up to him
with respect’! As has been said before,
would not his first visitation, after his res-
toration, be bis last’! I do not seek to
arouse any other than a kind and holy
sentiment with reference to this matter.
“Te, Mr. President, must regard the ef-
fect of scuh an act, upon the estimation in
which the church would stand. VVe are
a small body in the world; gaining from
rear to year from the confidence in our
principles and creed of those around us;
who are in the habit of estimating our
bishops with respect: and veneration for
their piety, though differing from them
in mode of faith and worship. Oh, if a
White, a Griswold, or :1 Bowen were ever
to have been so suspected, what, from
what we know of the high influence they
exerted over all around them, would have
been the effect upon the community in
which they lived’! Sir, their character is
our capital: their influence, the lever
which God gave us so widely to extend
our borders, and to bring within their folds
the gathering flock.”

Roug/I. Bed-Fellow.——The following_
circumstances happened in the town of
Arkansas. A man had been d’t'if’1king un{
til a late hour at night, before he started
home. Honest folks had gone to bed,‘
and the houses were all shut and dark.-—
He came acrossa shed staggered in, and
stretched himself upon the ground. For
along time he lay in all the unconscious-
ness ot drunken sleep, and the night being
cold, would undoubtedly have frozen, list!
not others less insensible than himself,-
been around him. This shed happened to
be a favorite rendezvous for hogs. Short-f
ly after the comer arrived, they huddled
around him, some acting the part of a
quilt, and thus protected him from the‘
cold. Towards morning he awoke, and
finding himself comfortable, and in bliss-
ful ignorance of his whereabouts, he sup-"
posed himself enjoying the accommoda-
tions ofa tavern, in company with other
gentlemen.‘ He stretched out his arri'i,-
and catching hold of the stiff bristles of a‘
hog, exclaimed; ‘why mister, when did you

New York expenses, and vowing to re-
turn ‘tu hum.’ Finding he had been bit-
ten we accompanied him to a a magistrates
office where he told his story as follows:

of a son of the pale faces, a lad about 17
years of age and they are now living to‘-‘

youth. The damsel has reached the ma-
