try, economy, charity, justice, piety-by
a noble life. So doing we raise the mo-
raj temperature Of the whole world, and
just in proportion thereto; next, by help
ing those who come in our way, nay, by
going out of our way to help them. In
each of these modes, it is our duty TO
work. To a certain extent each man is
his Brothers. Keeper. or the powers
we possess we are but trustees under
Providence, to answer for the benefit OF
men, and render continually ar recount
Of our stewardship to God. Each man
can do a little directly to help to prune
the world of wrong-a little in the way
Of temporizing charity, a little in the
way Of remedial justice; so doing, he
works with God, and God works with
him.-ReU. Theodore Parker.

The Prairie Fire.
BY THE REV. JOHN PIERPoNT.


The Prairie Fire At midnight hour,
The traveller hears it rolling by;
A form of terror and of power,
That walks the earth and ticks the sky.
The wild deer, on his grassy bed,
Wakes from his dream of breaking day,
Listen and lifts his antler'd head,
Snufs the hot blast, and bounds away.
Yet, when Spring comes, a fiowery belt
Across the p%rairie's bosom thrown,
Shows that where'er that flame was ielt,
1t left behind a jewell'd zone.
But there's a fire, along whose track
Spring never ~scatters flowers In bloom
But all is desolate and black
AS mid night in a hopeless tomb.
Alike upon the low and high
Falls this strange fret tails and prays
On beauty's cheek, in VISIONS eye,
And melts down manhood in its blaze.
And youth and age-its power is such
Blossom and fruit alike are burned;
And every virtue, by its touch,
Is shrivelled and to ashes turned.
Quench, mighty God !! by thine own power
By love and truth, with spring and well,
With stream and %cistern, flood and shower,
In mercy quench this fire of hell!

Sister, thou art dead.
BY JOSEPH TREAT.

Written while watching with a corpse.)
And hast thou gone! Can it be true
That thou forevermore art fled
Alas, that we shall find it so u
Sister-sueet sister-thou art dead
Twas but a little while ago
We heard thy vOice-thy laugh-thy
tread
We list-but can not hear them now =
Sister-stueet sister-thou art dead
We saw thee too-thy thoughtful face
Thy look so g%rave-thy smile so sad;
But now, tits all a vacant place
Sister-sueet sister-thou art dead!
For thou hast left us now and gone
To lay thy weary, aching head
Within the churchyard cold and lone
Sister-sweet sister-thou art dead!
Yes, dear one, thou art laid to sleep,
Not on thy mothers downy bed,
But in the grave so dark and deep
Sister-s,Ueet sister-thou art dead!
But yet we'll call thee gone, not lost,
And plant upon thy grave new made'
Bright flowers to blossom DER thy dust
Sister-s,veet sister, cold and dead!

Michigan Flowers and Birds.

A stroll through the open woods Of
Michigan in the month Of May is delight
full. They are more like parks than for
ests. Flowers ofgay colors glitter at ev-
cry step but alas, there is one sad draw
back on all this floral beauty. The flow
ers, most Of them, are scentless A
beautiful flower without perfume, is like
a beautiful without correspond
ing beauty of mind. After the first gaze
of admiration is over, the "vermeil tint''
ofthe leaf, or lip, but more forcibly calls
attention TO what is lacking. But the
birds-how they swarm and vocalize the
groves and fields of Michigan! In the
morning, the whole forest rings like a
concert room with their notes. had the
curiosity to sit at my window, and do
nothing for half an hour but watch the
different varieties Of them which appear
ed in sight, and strive to identify the
notes Of those unseen ones, the songs oil
which | could hear. The clear whistle
of the quail is necessarily on the ear
A score of bob-o-links hutered up and
down, and twanged their instruments like
mad. A brown thrush poured his rich
and varied song from the topmast spray
of an apple tree. A couple of blue bird:
fitted past, whispering notes of the ten
derest d~alliance. Woodpeckers of vari
Gus hues went On their jerking flight, an,
a redhead sounded his shrill clarion on
dead locust, summoning all its crawling
inmates TO surrender at discretion. Tn,
mournful cooling of the turlle-dove, tn
harsh scream Of the blue:jay, the totes o
the meadow lark, robin, chirping bird
oriole, startling, Canada warbler, and
host Of other birds, some known, ant
some unknown to me, were blent in tn
general chorus.-Albany Atlas.
