The world will move onward, tine minute space we have flied wit be forgotten, and other generations tread sportiyely over the little hillock of earth within which we are steadily mouldering back to our pfimative clay.
 Often 1t IS the oase, that We cannot but indulge in the idea that when the soul is severed from It's body, we shall ln spirit revisit those scenes which in life were dear to Us; that we shall again look from some high cliff upon the blue ~aters, and gaze upon the tall ship as she booms over the sea beneath an even ing sky; that we shall watch over the fortunes of those VIC loved in life, meet them gain ii affection, when ttihe} ttihe} shall have thrown off the clog of mortality, and be ready hand in hand, 10 ascend the higher regions of bliss, when this earth shall have passed away. But the sportive tricks of wild imagination should give place to the sober certainty of revelation. Though we delight to ingerround those scenes which are dear to us upon earth, though our conciences tells us that we are not to bury in q par simonious grave those thoughts and per captions which attach Us so closely to disembodied spirits, Yet the present pc riod of danger warns us most emphati- cally to set our hearts in such order. that we may challenge death to the com bat. His bolts are falling around us, and the small space that is allotted us before We shall be summoned to the lists in an unknown cline, demands that our panoply should be ready.

 I'te dearest ties are sundered, and tIle sable pail conveys to the grave the young, the beautiful, the aged and the worthy. The solemn knell rolls along the breeze as it tolls the mournfl ob- .sequies which are paid to the dead, and strikes on the ear of the living with an .ominous and warning note.
 There IS something peculiarly instruc- tive in those simple ceremonies which we devote to our deceased friends when VIC say, Let us arise and bury our dead The last look which we bestow upon that eountenanee which has glad denedus with it's smile; the company of moumers and friends who have assem- bled on this heart-rending occasion; the address which ascends from the lips of 1he divine to the throne of Being who is seen only in his works; the silence and sorrow of those who arc left for a little time on earth, until it shall be their fate te follow the departed; the process sion as 1t slowly moves towards the late cstllsii y tenement oif man; the peal struck from the village church, which now comes upon one listless earth of clay the falling of earth upon the young and amiabie-fhe return and dispersion of sEc silent congregation and those sad dened feelings which We bear with us 70 our pillows, and the void, never again to be filled, which Is made among the little rank of those NC love-all these feelings furnish moral too forcibly ap- piled tohe resisted, and awaken thoughts upon the future, beyond all that the most lahered essay or most eloaucnt tongue can produce. We turn from silis scene to that which is penciled up- on future years; whcnthe rose and sweet briar spring from the turf resting on that bosom now beating with pleasure It our approach, and heaving the con yulsive sob at our atllictions, when, in fine, all that VIC now lock upon. with so much delight, shall become but an un- seemly skeleton withina narrow grave.
 Change the dream, and we ourselves are to become the victims ofa like trans formation. The siia, the cottage Of OUT infancy, the lake glimmering beneath the silvery moon, the vault of heaven, the friends of our youth. the partnerof our pillow, ali, all the luxaries of ina gination and of life, arc to become dim and indistinct; passion after passion, must expire; sense after sense must fol- Tow, oblivion will silently steal each ob-

REMEMBER ME.


 Remember me, when far away,
 My exile barque divides the surge, With noughtto guide its cheerless Way' And nought it's swift return to urge Remember me, when.loffy sinks
 The sun into his bowers of rests The last one of the cherished links, That bound thee to this troubled breast Remember me when evening hours Are sweetest to thy grateful heart; Thoult set III summers sunlit bowers, And think what severed US apart. 01iii cast but one regTetfuf glance, East, west, or north, I care not whither Half way twill meet my sighs advance, And bear 1t back in triumph hither. Remember me, when fortune smiles, And worldly friends are hoy ring near; This world s q world of painful wiles, And trust not even friendships tear; For twas not formed thus to be known To every heart tho false 1t be; 4 soil where once dissention sown, It gems and blossoms painfully. Remember me, when wars alarms Sounds terror to the timid soul; When from within thy lovely arms, The dove of peace escapes control: Then think of him who'd gladly die, To set all strife at peace within; Whose gaze upon thy.loyelt eye,
 Was lasting as its light on him. Remember me, when o'er the wave, Tn distant cimes l seek home; perchance to find foreign grave,* The fruit of hopes too early gone; And oh, thou lov'd, neglected one, Of all the friends l leave behind, How sad the feelings, and how lone Is memory to this wretchcd mind.
 HENRY. The writer of these lines did, indeed find :. foreign grave, having died three days after landing on the dreadful shores Of Alyarado, on the 20th Sept. 1924.
