Who fixed nations doom.
Come to the judgment now.

Maiden with lip of rose,
A brow of Parian stone,
Haste from thy long repose,
Come TO the gathering-come!
Brigh. was thy dark eyes CLEAN,
Fair was thy cheeks of bloom,
Again those charms shall beam
Come to the gathering-come!
Mourner with the fearful eye,
Haste 10 thy spirits home,
A peaceful rest on high
Come TO the gathering-come!
Loved one of days gone by,
Haste from The graves cold gloom!

THE DIFFERENCE.

knew two friends, as much alike
As ere you saw two stumps;
And no phrenologist conld find
A difference in their bumps.
One took paper, and his life
Was happier than kings;
His children all could read and write,
And talk of men and things.
The other took no paper, and
While strolling through the wood,
A tree fell down upon his crown,
And killed him-as it should.
Had he been readiug of the news,
AT home like neighbor jim,
III bet cent the accident
Would not have happened him.
