even during his own file, had the satisfaction of knowing that many by reading that discourse were so convicted in their consciences that even at great pecuniary sacrifice they gave up the traffic in ardent spirits, and that many more from being enemies or lukewarm friends, became earnest advocates of the temperance reformation.

Lines,
 Composed While Standing At The White Pilgrim's Grave.
__________
By Elder J. Ellis.

I came to the spot where the White Pilgram lay,
   And pensively stood by his tomb,
When in a low whisper I heard something say,
   "How sweetly I sleep here alone.

The tempest may howl, and loud thunder roll,
   And gathering storms may arise,
Yet calm are my feelings, at rest is my soul,
   The tears are all wiped form my eyes.

The cause of my Savior compelled me to roam,
   I bade my companions farewell,
I left my sweet children, who for me do mourn,
   In a far distant region to dwell.

I wandered an exile and stranger below,
   To publish salvation abroad,
The trump of the Gospel endeavored to blow,
   Inviting poor sinners to God.

But when among strangers, and far from my home,
   No kindred or relative nigh,
I met the congagion, and sank in the tomb,
   My spirits ascended on high.

Go! tell my companion and children most dear,
   To week not for Joseph, tho' gone;
The same hand that led me thro' scenes dark and drear,
   Has kindly conducted me home."
