Lost to th' esteem of all the worldly wise, Another's joy to him a pleasant sight. He lov'd to work; and health appear'd to say, Oh, Caldwell' hearts that closely twin'd with thine, MR. CALDWELL WAS A Director of the New-York Missionary Society, Director of the United Foreign Missionary Society, Director of the Religious Tract Society, AMICUS. Director of the Society for the Support of the Gospel among the poor, A Trustee of the New-York Free School, Corresponding Secretary of the New-York Bible Society, and a Member of the Board of Missions of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church. He also superintended the printing of the French New Testament published by the New-York Bible Society. He did the same for the French and Spanish New Testaments afterwards published by the American Bible Society, correcting the press and the Stereotype plates, in those languages, as well as for the several editions of the Bible in the English language. He was master of the French, Spanish, Latin, and Greek languages, and an excellent gramarian and critic. He undertook the publication of the Christian Herald, chiefly, perhaps solely with the view of communicating in an easy and familiar way to the friend's of Zion the glorious things that were accomplishing for her prosperity. In so doing, there is reason to believe he has gladdened the hearts of many who had been wishing for such a medium of communication. Similar publications have since been commenced, and are producing good effects. THE CHILD OF MERCY. How blest the child of mercy lives, Not monarchs, deck'd in regal state, When low'ring tempests, fraught with Oh! could I live on Jesus too, No more should doubts my heart distress ; | I'd smile at death with courage true, Shine! Sun of Righteousness, and dart Yes! Mighty God, if thou appear, END OF THE FIFTH VOLUME. INDEX TO THE CHRISTIAN HERALD. FIFTH VOLUME.
