14 Sidney, what good man envies not thy blow?
Who would not wish Anytus*-for a foe?
Intrepid virtue triumphs over fate;
The good can never be unfortunate;
And be this maxim graven in thy mind;
The height of virtue is, to serve mankind.
But when old age has silver'd o'er thy head,
When memory fails, and all thy vigour's fled,
Then mayst thou seek the stillness of retreat,
Then hear aloof the human tempest beat;
Then will I greet thee to my woodland cave,
Allay the pangs of age, and smooth thy grave.
GRAINGER

WATTS & RIPPON.

DAVID CLARK respectfully informs the public that he has published a second edition of that valuable Hymn Book published by Messrs. Anderson & Mechan, in the year 1820, containing in one volume, the Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts, as arranged by Dr. Rippon, with Dr. Rippon's Selection. The propriety of including both these works in one volume will appear, when it is considered that Dr. Rippon originally designed his Selection to he an Appendix to the Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts. As to form, the second edition differs from the first, in being printed with larger type, and on a larger page. As to matter, no alteration whatever is made, either in the Hymns or their arrangement, but into the Indexes of the work a valuable improvement is introduced. In the first edition there were distinct sets of Indexes of first lines of Scriptures and of subjects for the two parts of the work. In the present edition the Indexes of the Selection are, without any omission, incorporated with those of the arrangement, so as to make one complete Index for the whole volume.

The work is embellished with a Vignette Title, and a Portrait of Dr. Watts, A Portrait of Dr. Rippon will be added as soon as it can be obtained,

This Hymn Book is printed on fine paper, from new stereotype plates, and is handsomely and strongly bound in sheep. The price for a single copy is one dollar. Six copies can be had for $5, and thirteen for $10. To book: sellers or others taking a larger number of copies, a more liberal discount will be made. Orders from a distance enclosing the money should be addressed to David Clark, No. 118 N. Fourth st. or to the Agent of the Baptist General Tract Society, Philadelphia, and will receive prompt attention. Persons sending for books, will please be particular in stating the number wanted, and the way in which they are to be forwarded.

P. S. An Appendix of Sixty Hymns selected by W. T. Brantly, has been stereotyped and printed with some of the above. The whole work is sold at 81 12 each, or at the same mite of discount for a larger number.
