    our pily ; they should call forth our best efforts for their removal . Even when we have done all , and our time draws neaiv and . we see that we cannot save them , but that they must reap the reward of their evil doings / the language of our despair must be , i Alas for thee !

    A TALE BY HARRIETT JUARTINEAU . We are not going to criticise this beautiful tale . It is enough for us to admire it , and to introduce one or two extracts to the notice of such of our readers , if such there be , as have not indulged in the pure delight which it affords , and imbibed from it not only scientific but , moral instruction . It touches the heart as much as

    it informs the mind . It appears to us the most admirable of the whole series . This may be partly because it is the latest ; for where all are excellent , that which has only made the most recent impression , may seem to have made the strongest . It may partly arise from the faithful delineation given , of one who adorned so gloriously the age in which he lived , and the country which so ungratefuUy persecuted him unto e ^ cUe . It may partly arise from

    some echoes which are made to cherished thoughts arid feelings of our bosom . Whatever be the cause or causes , we thank Miss MartineauV heartily thank her for this tale , It rejoiced us as hill and plain , meadows and forests , the blue sky above and the green sea beneath , delight us : for they are nature , and it is nature ' s , God ' s truth ; and both have in them , therefore , that soul of beauty which is the perennial source of unsullied and lasting enjoyment .
