Hebrsp Poets.-The sacred poets never con tempated the glories Of creation, but with the lively gratitude of sincere worshippers, delight ed to witness and to feel the all-pervading mer- cy of Jehovah. The utterancc of their costa ey at the view of the scene before them, was the iervcnt expression of real emotions. They loved minute enumeration of its beauties, be- cause their souls were moulded by its influence, their hearts were touched with human kindness, they sympathised with the happiness of all ani- mated nature, and rejoiced to sing forth their grateful, involuntary praises to the GiyeE of good.

 There IS scarce an object in nature, which they do not personify. The sun, the moon, the stars, the winds, the clouds, the rain, are the ministers and messengers of Jehovah. The fields and the trees break forth into singing, aud even clap their hands for joy. The mountains melt at his presence, or flee from his wrath in ter TOT; and the sun and moon hide themselves from the terrible flashing of his armor. What unut- terable sublmity do such bold personilicatons communicate to that chapter in Habakkux, commencing, Cod came from Ienan-The Holy One from ylIoenH Paraf

 The mountains saw Thee, and were troubled:

 The oyerfowing of waters passed away;

 The deep uttered his voice,

 1t lifted up its hands on high.

 The sun and the moon stood still in in their habta- In the light of thine arrows they vanished, ton; In the brightness of the lightning of Thy spear! In indignation Thou didst march thro the land, In wratb Thou didst thresh the heathep.
