From errors, lurn ofignert-.nce,And the terrors of the grave.

I cannot feel in my mother heart.To murmur or to fear.

Is it because I’m callous grown,And lost maternal love ?

Or. is it because she’s guarded by Bright ones from heaven above,

Who lead her on, ar.d through her cheer The weary, suffering ones

Whose way has been through pain and care While here beneath the sun?

And who, through her can show" tha way To sordid, c lions hearts.

That they undo the wrong thy’ve done And heal the bit»er smart.

Thus break the chains that bigotry Haa forged arrund man’s soul,

And show them heaven’s liberty,Free from Priesthood's dark control.

So. if through her. one glorious ray Of heaven-born light, be given

To light man’s pathway here below,And guM< h:m on to heaven.

No aum nr shall e’er fin l a place Within my heart of beans.

B u t b id h e r go on m ercy ’s w ing ,To cheer each lonely one ;

And to my heart a cheer, ’twill bring-,To know her works welt dune.

We were going to have a knowledge not a * belief of a future life. lie then showid.by- -1 >uical reasoning, that a revilation to one,

was not to ano'h-r, so the Bible was a reve­lation to ihose who ha 1 it given to them, and

- not to u-*, lor it did no«, coni'! to us, thei ef'o:e ’ we had no business to ad »pt it as a rule to go

by, an-1 as there were several hiridrid differ­ent churches and creeds, all eiaiming it as the word of God, but ail differing, it, therefore, sra* nothing to us as a guide.

■ l ie paid spirit intercourse w mid have been universally known if the cotunieicial men coul-J have-hired it to find gold and pick out comer lots in cities and the like and so wi<h the religious world, if it only confirmed their creeds it would have got along a great deal faster, but it could not bo bought, hired nor sold driven or C“axt d, niithcr could it be sectariauiz'-d any more tli.m astronomy or any of the sciences. -

At rhe close of the lecture R tv. M Bul­lard had some questions he wished to ask.

He wished to know if we were not obliged to take the Bible as authority without prying into the nature of it ?

Mr Chase said that he did not know which to take as being authority Methodism or Cal v'ni-«m, each claimed it as the word cf God, therefore,T- cannot tell which is light, as you diff r as much as black and white, and the au­thority of one was not of the other, so it was not authority ior any one.

* The audience hearing this, hurst into ap- . rlause apd loud chipping of hands and feet,

which made the house fairly shake. The Rev looked as though he was thunder struck which caused him to drop his b*.ad about 'wo inches and then sit down. But the best of it was th ia; he had forim-ly sail that he would

•Tcply to Mr Chase- Bat to see him g"t up and ask questions in the manner .he d il, it looked as iff school boy times—asking quos- tions.of the t«-acher.

But fate has marked a different course,And manna fit»h each morn we see.Tor wondrous tales still fid the brain Of every grade of human mind :And stories new, some false, some trae Appear, then pass for long ago.

Sweet scented fern leaves still appear,Butt like their kindred soon willfind Preceedence wrought on their last page.And like the Poet, Bard and Mu3 e Must be content with one bold throw And pass the stage for long ago.

Distinction, worth, nor aught can claim A lasting charm for moving mind ;Each one combines to roll the scene,Which forms life's grand panorama;There like the rest must surely go Into the realms of leng ago.

Thus sba1! each human soul arise And act its part upon the stage;An influence cast for weal or woe.Descend the stream of parsing time.But whence or where they feign would know, Are those who left so long ago.
