E fl Il ; e h l Y A Tny wife shall wait,
 Full many day, for thee; And when the gate
 Turns on it's unused hinges, she Shall ope her grief-contracted eye. Nor leaving hope to die. Longingly for thee look, Till. like some lone and gentle silver brook That pinath by the summer heat away, And dies some day,
 She waste her mournfnl life out at her eyes. yainly, ah vainly we deplore Thy death, departed friend: no more Shalt thou enjoy the spirit of known skies; The barbed arrow hath gone through Thy fount of life, And now the veined blue Hath faded from thy ciay-cold check, and
 thou,
 With stern and wrinkled brow, Like one that wrestled nightly with death, Art lying there.
 Whether, above the skies, Thou treadest heavens floor, (as was thy
 creed,l
 Beneath Gods lightning eyes, Happy indeed, fAs hope, wcalx-winged, should ever try to
 soar,
 Or, buried there, Taking thy dead, eternalsleep, Shalt only rise in atoms to the air, As thinks despair, )- Howe'er 1t be, we take our last adleu. Lie there, pale sleeper Lie there we eweep for thee withinthe heart: Our fount of grief is deeper, For that 1t riseth not into the eyes. Thy grave is deeper than the wolf can go, And wheels have rolled above thee; so fare
 we'll!
 Farewell! for soon,
 With sad and and solitary tune, The The echo of our voice will leave thy grave.
 Again, again,
 Farewell!

p. S. He wishes to call the attention Of
the economical. to the fuel and labor>sa-
wing properties of the Rotary Stope. and its
peculiar adaptation as n hummer Cooking
Store. By the use of the CRATE, a very
small amount Of fuel is required for the
culinary operations of any family less by
one half, ii is believed, than is required by
any other Stove in use. Its form and
height is such that it admits IF being pla
ced in the fire places of ordinary kitchens,
SO that most Of the heat and ~efiuvia from it
passes off by The chimney. The saving OF
fuel effected by the Improved Rotary, in
one year. over that of almost any other
Cooking Stove, is fully equal TO its cost,
besides the superior facility and care with
which the several culinary operations are
performed with it.
Also, Tea and Marlin Kettles of various
sizes, cast expressly for this Stove.
