the provisions of this bill, to be organized into
separate territories with Governors, Judges, Sec

THE CHILD AND THE MoURNERs.

BY cnARLIs sAcKAr.
A LITTLE child beneath a tree
Sat and chanted cheerily
A little song, a pleasant song,
Which was-the sang il ali day long
When the wind blows the blossoms fall
But a good God reigns over all
There passed lady by the way,
Moaning ia the face of day:
There were tears upon her cheek,
Grei Ia her heart too great to speak
Her husband died but yester morn,
And left her in the world fororn.
She stopped and listened to the child
That looked TO heaven. and singing smiled
And saw not, for her own despair,
Another lady, young and fair,
VINO also passing, stopped TO hear
Inc iniants anthem ringing clear.
For she but few sad days before
HAD lost the little babe she bore
And grief was heavy at her soul
As that sweet memory DER her stole,
As showed how bright had been the Past
The Present drear and overcast.
Aud as they stood beneath the tree
Listening, sootbed and pacidly,

And he, arrested like the twain,

cath had bowed the youthful head
Of his bride beloved, bis bride unwed
Her marriage robes were fitted on,
Her lair young face with bushes shone
When the destroyer smote her low,
And changed the lovers bliss TO woe
And these three listened to the song,
Sllvertoned, and sweet, and strong,
Which that child, the livelong day.
Chanted 70 itself in play:
. When the wind blows the blossoms fall;
But good God reigns over all
The widows lips impulsive moved
The mothers grief, though rnreproved
Soitened, as her trembling tongue
Repeated what the infant sung;
And the sad lover, with a start.
COINED 1t over to his heart
And though the chld-if child it were.
And not seraph sitting there
was seen no more, the sorrowing three
Went on their way resignedly,
The song still ringing in their ears
Was 1t music Of the spheresi
Who shall tell They did not know.
Bat in the midst Of deepest woe
The strain REQUIRED when sorrow grew,
To warm them, and console them too
When the wind blows the blossoms fall;
Bat good God reigDs over all
