HYMN OF THE MOUNTAIN CHRISTIAN,

Fer the strength of the hills we bless thee, Our God, our fathers’ God!

Thou hast made thy children mighty, By the touch of the mountain sod.

Thou hast fixed our ark of refuge Where the spoiler’s foot ne'er trod ;

For thestrength of the hi.s we biess thee, Our God, our fathers’ God,

We are watchers of a beacon Whose light must never die; We are guardians of an altar Midst the silence of the sky ; The rocks yield founts of courage Struck forth as by thy rod— For the strength of the hills we bless thee, Our God, our fathers’ God.

Forthe dark, resounding heavens, Where thy still small voice is heard, For the strong pines of the forests, That by thy breath are stirr'd! — For the storms on whose free pinions Thy spirit walks abroad— For the strength of the hills we bless thee, Our God, our fathers’ God!

The royal eagle darteth On his quarry from the heights, And the siag that knows no master, Seeks there his wild delights: But we for thy communion Have sought the zaountain sod-—- For the strength of the hills we bless thee, Our God, our fathers’ God!

The banner of the chieftain Far, far below us waves ;

The war-horse of the spearman Cannot reach our lofty caves;

The dark clouds wrap the threshold Of freedom's last abode!

For the strength of the hills we bless thee, |

Our God, our fathers’ God !

For the shadow of thy presence Round ourcamp of rock outspread ; For the stern defiles of battle, Bearing record of our dead ; For the snows, and for the torrents, For the free heart's burial sod, For the strength of the hills we bless thee, Our God, our fathers’ God!

For some days be- fore the final tragedy Mrs. Robbins had been at the house of a lady in the village prepar- ing for the reception of guests at the ap- proaching Convention. Meanwhile her hus- band was preparing fer the denouemeni, by disposing of his crops, settling up his ac- counts, and announcing his intended This intention he professed to have

He felt, he said, that he could not stay here much ljonger, and so was deters mined to go away and start afresh where he was notknown. This he told to the husband of the lady with whom Mrs. Robbins was at work, and soshe came to hear it, anu res marked, ‘ why, we have no flour in the house. I wonder if he is going away without pro- viding any’ We asked to see his wife and appeared kind and husband-like, as he asked her to return home and promised to take her to Digby for a day or two. Unfortunately she relented, and went home on Wednesday evening. Atnine o'clock she put her two youngest boys to bed; her eldest son went over to her brother's--Sulney Chute’s—to stay a!! night, and leaving her husband re- clining on a lounge she retired to her bed- room in the rear of the smail house she called her home.

Woman's InvLueNcE.—AS a rule, the whole tone of a home depends upon the woman at the head of it; the average home, not the poverty-stricken home, nor the wealthy home In this average home, whether sunshine shall enter the rooms, whether the parlor shall be used and enjoyed, whether the table shall be invitingly spread, whether bright lights and bright fires shall give warmih and cheer on winter nights—whether, in brief, the home shall be an agreeable or disagreeable place,

is usually as the woman determines. Men are powerless in the matter. Some find

solace for a dismal home in study; some occupation in business; some submit with what patience they can; others are attracted by the cheer of the public house; and it is especially young men who are apt, in con- sequence, to drift into bad company and bad habits.
