Note, The noble strength of character in this Ballad is only !tqualled by the following affecting story. 0.3 In ifieliebellion of 1745, a party of Cumberland dragoons was harrying through Nithsdale in search of Rebels. Hungry and fatigued, they called at a lone widow's house and demanded refreshment. Her son, a lad of sixteen, dressed them up V Lang kale and butter," and the good woman brought new milk, which she told them were all her stock ; one of the party inquired, with seeming kindness, how she lived. " Indeed, quoth she, the cow and the kale-yard, wi' God's blessing, is a' my nailer." He arose, and with his sabre, killed the cow and destroyed all the kale. The poor woman was thrown upon the ,world and died of a broken heart. The disconsolate youth, her son, wandered away beyond the inquiry of friends or the search of compassion. In the Continental war, when the British army Bad gained a great and signal victory, the soldiers were making merry with wine, and recounting their exploits, A dragoon roared out, " I once starved a Scotch witch in Nithsdale—l killed leer cow and destroyed her greens; but," added he, " she could live for all that in her God, as she said !" 0 And don't you rue it," cried a young soldier, starting up, " don't you rue It !"—" Rue what," said he, " rue aught like that!"—" Then, by my God," , : cried.the.yoath, unsheathing his sword, " that woman was my aisolliec; draw, you villain, draw !" They fought, the youth passed his sword twice through the dragoon's body, and while he - turned h;nl over in the throes of death, exclaimed, " Nod • *ow r awaSsk ! ig l iyassob, siwuld .only have been punished by your God fans f t • fv•z, - Sir,! 13c,Inseplub ind Co. 1.

Cambridge. He Ms originally ordained by the late Archbishop tit York, ham, upon a title to a livingin Yorkshire. During the late ques tion of clerical a unfitness," started 'in bar iiil.o..etinflittiation of his election to the Friday-MornintLeCtureship df Saint Blxtho mew by the Royal Exchange, 1 1 / 4 , 1r. Povah Seems, obtained priest's orders frOm the prksent venerable and' excellent Bishop of Sodor and Man ; a proceeding which it wA ciintidered•by his friends expedient for him to take, in Order to obviate all 'possible objection to him, however insinuated, oz's the score of his alleged unfitness for the pulpit. He has been for some time the Curate and Evening-Lecturer of St. James's Church, ill Duke's Place; and, for the last five years, Afternoon-Lecttier at St. Path Church, Shadwell. Notwithstanding that the public are yet unapprised of the nature of that " unfitness" which one of the mast Tarried prelates of our day is understood to have legally objected against the present preacher, favourably though his pulpit labours ate still received; the religious community seem prepared to learn, that this imputation of " unfitness" may, probably, be construed as applying to the rigidly orthodox opinions entertained by Mr. Povah, and the mode in which he prefers to incnlcate'diOse opil nions. It is against what are now called methodistic sentiments and extempore eloquence, therefore, that all the artillery of epis copacy seems about to be directed; but with what effect, time alone must :hew. Yet if it be the duty of the clergy, " under these circumstances," simply and fairly " to 'watch till these novelties shall subside," as onelatter Bishop tells ua, and then justly "to take care, when they (religions novelties!) de sub silk, that their flock shall not relapse into irreligion,"—findlng this as stated to be the duty of the clergy, and their noblest one too, why are any other means put into requisition, means 'not . so worthy of theend, for compelling confbrmity to the elinrch'e•-• Truth Will make its way, and' must have its cobras: Shentld some religionists prove wrong, time will determine their end.— Should their views of the truth prove right, however, what arm of flesh shall soon stay them / Respecting extemporary preaching, the question Is not - so problematical as, it would appear, some certain controversialists imagine. " Does a Minister, who is a servant of Jesus Christ, always speak," vehemently deinande one Or the correspondents of the new Gospel Magailne, " under the immediate Impulse of Me itoly Ghost ? Thisll! bringing the qu4stion (extemporary sermonizing) into a groper shape. If any man has the rail ness to make such an assertion, I Will maintain," continues this correspondent, " that he is more fit for Bedlam, than to address a congregation of the faithful." Absurdity sometimes best con futes absurdity. Seeing it asked, as matter of question, whether " a Minister, who is a sent-servant of Jesus Christ, alAys speaks under the immediate impulse of the Holy Ghost,".wbat V
