Y,Egc Widow.

If there is any person more lonely than anoth-
er, and one who should be more entitled to onr
sympathjes, it is she who has been deprived Of
the companion Of her youth Perhaps her chill
dren have all been called away by the voice of
death, and one by one she has watched over
them, until they breathed their last, and then
deposited them in the house appointed for all
the living. Poor woman, she is a widow indeed!
AS she muses. on the past, when she was con-
tented and happy in the society of her husband
surrounded by group Of smiling children, an
involuntary sigh escapes her, and tear is seen
TO tickle down her check Now, the path of
life is dark and drear; the sunshine that blessed
her cottage and home is departed, and night,
dark and cheerless, broods over her head. Poor
woman, we repeat There is nothing on earth
TO cheer again her spirits, raise her heart and
thrill her bosom with JOY. When her Father in
heaven, whose kind hand has wonderfully sus-
tanned her, shall call her hence, she will depart
with willing spirit. She feels that earth is but
vale of tears, and she has long looked above
for consolation and peace. A few more suns,
and she will be at rest, and the cold grave will
then receive the lfeles3 clod-and then who
will remember the widow and chdcss? Who
will visit her grave and plant flowers beside iti
None; for her relations and her offspring arc
dead. Poor widow! we say again. May she
find kind friends while she lives, that all hel
wants be supplied, and when she dies, we arc
confident she will find rest in heaven, where the
wicked cease from troubling and weary at rest
