Oh think not that time though forever we part.
Can conquer affection for thee,
Thy image shall ever be stamped on my heart,
1t matters not where l shall be.
In the depths OF the heart is an island Of rest.
There peace from the cold world is driven,
There in missing on thee shall my spirit be blessed,
While it hopes for the rest that's in Heaven.
There in stiffness Of thought shall fond memory
repair.
While grief rocks lfe's trcmulous sea,
And devotion shall pour out my feeling in prayer,
That blessings may rest upon thee.
know that stern fate forbids the decree,
That my pathway through life shall be thine,
But the spirit that guards shall hover DER thee
The God that susiains thee be mine.
Farewell! may the roses ofhappiness bloom
Round the spot where thy fortunes are cast,
Ind hope gid the darkness that hangs DER the
tomb,
Where thy beauty mus, slumber at last.

ago in the Northern cities, on the authority
of a letter, said to be from Richmond brok-

however, it had recovered, and was passing at
the same rates of discount of other Virginia
