evening, "it is very lonely now, and the night SEEM

"Too like, l fear" said the mother, as the
crystal tear-drop trembled on the drooping-lid
'but, my dear child, there is a fairer world than
this, where the flowers never fade where clouds
never hide the light Of that glorious sky; for the
glory of him, whose name is love, beams bright
ly and forever in those golden courts the trees

1t was a little while, and the mother bent ovel
the grave Of this little frail flower of intellect
withered by the untimely lrosts of death but
was she alone, when in the twilight shades she
sat upon the grassy mound, where the deep and
y%earning hopes of that fond heart were gathered
in obliyions silence? Oh, no! The soft and
sllvery tones of buried love whispered in the
breeze, that lifted the dropping flowers, over
charged with the dewy tears of night. The dia'
mond stars that one by enc cam forth upon theiI
shining watch, seemed beaming with the light Of
that deathIess flame, which burned undimmeC
upon the inmost shrine of her heart and she en-
joyed, in the holy hours Of solitude, that com
munion of pure spirits, which exalted faith alone
can bestow.
