New'

1873, by
Francis :Ridley • Havorgal, ' who en-
dowed the 'Church of Christ with
many fine • songs of praise, most of
them alight, Withself-consecration.
We •mead, not wonder at that :fire

church, with: the 'legend under it:
"This have 1 done far thee, what hast
thou docile for me'?" ` Perhaps readers
1 of these;.articles. upon: hymns may 're-,
member the effect -upon Count .Zin-
2endorPs' whole life •of:such a church
and the splendid -consequences' that
followed sit.'
Upon Miss Haver l the immediate
e
effect was the setting her to write
the' hymn, eelety,life\:was: given for rue,
Thy blood, 10 c,Christ, was •;shed, etc."
But the after :effect was a new diree-
qg titan giventoiher life, which led her
to a deep realization, of her Savior's
words: "If aey man would,: come after

Henceforth her writings and t.her
thoughts were all for Jesus, and she
,grew into one of those wholly 'con-
secrated women of talent and charih
who have been the glory of Cheek -
Ian femininity,
Francis Ridley Havergai was the
daughter of the Reverend Canon',Wil-
liam Henry Havcrgal, a well known
niZsi ian.poet, preacher.
and theolog-
ian,
ian, and was born at the Rectory:of
Astley, in. Worcestershire, Eng., in
December 1836. : She was carefully
educated and became proficient in
Greek, Latin and modern Hebrew. In
literature and also in music her train-
ing was thorough, .and it is safe to
' say that she developed into one of
the most highly ,oalaicated wennenn •of
her age,
A sample of her musical ability is
given in the tune "Hermas;'' which
she composed for what critics con
stder her finest hymn, "Golden harps
are sounding!' The New Year's hymn
is sometimes sung to this Anne, but
since it was written for another hymn.
altogether it did not seem fair to so
apply it in such a widely read journal
as The Family Herald and Weekly
Star.
She had a iclvely and attractive
character, and this was so well dis-
played in her poems and hymns, that.
their circulation .as tracts, on cards,
and in .booklets, ran into unnumbered
hundreds of thousands, 'It •is •true
that the immense popularity of her
hymns cannot be taken, ,as :a .gauge
of their merit, for it is the :beauty
of their language and their appeal
to the emotions, rather than any
great poetic merit which ..commended
chem to People so generally.
Our hymn was produced timidly at
he breakfast table on New Year's day
lid was 'rather critically received by.
he other members of beer family, and
o doubt many of its lines are rather
trite if not commonplace. But its
spirit is excellent, and its n1t,ssage
of hope, and assurance of help, is
what most thoughtful souls feel the
;meed of, on entering another year.
Our tune V'exillutn, was by the eel-
eb,rat•ed writer' of sacred and a scl sc:ciilar
music, Henry Stuart, one of a talent=-
ed musical family, born in 1813, an
organist in several London, Eng.,.
churches, who became blind, in 1864,
but continued his composing and con-
ducting until his death in 1.879,
