convinced of the truth as it is in Jesus, by Brother Wm. Godson, during a visit he paid to Ossett Common in 1849, being immersed into Jesus for the remission of sins on the 9th of April, in' the same year; and from that time to the present, her walk and conversation have been such as becometh the gospel of Christ, and her end was peace. She leaves three daughters who have been immersed into the same faith, and who are walking in the path which has led their parent to that land where everlasting spring abides, and never-fading flowers." They have learnt to "sorrow not as those who have no hope," but as those who confidently wait for a blissful and endless reunion at the resurrection of the just. "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord." H. EXLEY. THE REAL IN THE IDEAL. WE see not here the real forms Yet think not that their radiance Is but a wizard-dream, And that these visions of the soul Are not what they do seem. They tell us of a brighter sphere A world of loveliness and light, Or vagaries of sense- CONCLUSION OF VOLUME VI. THE labors attendant on another volume of this Work are again concluded. Its contents, as they may bear upon and promote the intelligence and moral and spiritual elevation of the reader, will doubtlessly be regarded in various aspects by its friends and supporters. One fact in connection with its utility must be patent to every reader-its monthly pages present Essays, Addresses, and Items of Ecclesiastical Information in relation to reform movements, foreign and domestic, which could not obtain a place in any other periodical published in this country. These Essays, which are of a most important and interesting character, tend to correct and enlarge the mind of every candid inquirer after a knowledge of truth and righteousness, especially the young and inexperienced in the Christian religion. To such persons, this periodical will be found to be invaluable. We beg to express our obligations to all who have contributed to its pages; and again make a personal appeal to the brethren, at this important crisis, to use their utmost influence to extend the circulation of the Harbinger. It is a well-known fact, that the more extensive the circulation of a periodical, the wider will be its sphere of usefulness; whilst the labor and anxiety are about the same to an Editor, whether the sale be four or five thousand, or it be limited to hundreds. We are receiving letters every month commendatory of the work, and a greater circulation ought to be obtained for it, than it has hitherto enjoyed. If all the brethren who have leisure, and who love the Lord and his cause supremely, would obtain one or two additional subscribers, our circulation might be doubled. We leave the matter in their hands, and trust, by the help of the Lord, that they will hear from us every month of the year 1854. J. W.
