ny MRS. cARoLrsE LEE HENrz.
They sleep in death--the summer gales
Sigh DER their grassy bed;
Where murmuring Nature softly walls
Above the early dead.
Ere sin could mar their spotless charms,
With Heavens own seal impressed,
The Saviour oped his sheltering arms,
And clasped them to his breast.
They sleep in death-the dcws Of night,
That weep upon their tomb,
Meier moistened flowers more sweet and bright
More transient in their bloom.
Alas! the dews of night xili fall,
The flowers of autumn glow,
While they, the loyeliest flowers of all,
Blighted and pale, lie low.
They wake in heaven-wth angels fair
Children of glory now
Celestial blossoms wreathe their hair,
Is. And crown each beaming brow.
And in each youthful hand they hold
A sweet and golden Tyre
Rejoice-two cherubs are enrolled
In Heavens eternal choir.
They live in heaven-a kinder breast
Than fondest mothers bear
Cradles them to their Eden rest,
With -slumbering care.
That Saviour, whose divine embrace
Once blcst the lambs ofearth,
Now crowns them with his Fathers grace.
And owns their heavenly birth.

One of the earliest eviirncics OF old agc is

A letter has lately appeared in tn, London

there is the common confusion of rIters A

is one curious fact which he has observed, VIZ,
that fine wire cause, of | 80 Of and inch in di-
