three years old The father left him alone while he
looked after some sheep, when suddenly thick fog
came on. The poor man could not find his child; he
hoped he had gone home, but when he inquired he
found his wife had not seen him. Both father and
mother searched round bur no child was seen.
Next morning they gave their dog piece of bread
for breakfast as usual. As soon the dog received

the dog did so again, On the third day, the shep-
herd thought u will 60 and see what the dog does
with his bread He followed him down many a
difficult path, I'LL al last he 10 a steep waterfall
The shepherd, stepping from crag TO crag, crossed
the roaring stream. On the other side. In little
hole in the rocks, sat lille boy eating piece OF

HOsANNA.

| When, his salvation bringing,
To,Zion Jesus came,
The children all stood singing
Hosanna to his name.
Nor did their zeal offend him,
But as he rode along,
He let them still attend him,
And smiled 10 hear their song.
2 And since the Lord retaineIh
His love for children still;
Though now as King he reigneih
On lions heavenly hill:
Wen flock around his banner,
Who sits upon the thrones
And cry aloud Hosanna
To Dayids royal Son"
3 For should we fail proclaimlng,
Our great Redeenier's praise;
The stones, our silence shaming,
Might well hosanna raise.
Bni shall we only render
The tribute ofonr words
No while our hearts are tender,
They, TOO, shall be the Lord's.

Why Dos'T THE Coin CoME7-A good deal Of
very natural Impotence is manifested at the fact that
there comparatively so few arrivals Of gold from
Ell Dorodo. We live in an age Of steam and rail
which anything TO satisfy expeo ton, must be done
quickly. In the matter of go we forget the dis
tance that the first uoyageurs haze TO travel before
they reach Caforna-the fact that the population
al San francisco, when the gold was originally
found, was, large proportion OF it, composed Of
citizens of other countries-and above all, that the
late cold and wet weather suspended operations for
considerable period of time giving 10 the Amer-
little opportunity to collect the shining metal The
mining season having now fully opened, we shall
