THE VOICE OF NATURE.
BY CHARLES WILTON.

BY CHARLES WILTON.
Twas in a lone sequestcred dell,
And on a summers eve;
The suns last glances lingering fell,
AS loath the spot to leave.
For never sun more blithely rose
To light scene more fair
Day never had so sweet close,
Or night charm SO rare. GO
And have climbed the rocky steep
That cuts the vale in twain,
And gaze adown the lonely sweep
That seeks the vale again.
l gaze on many stately dome
Ofhish imperious name,
On many low and humble home
Unglorifed by fame;
But al! are wrapt in deep repose,
And not a sound is there
To tell how swift the river flows
Between the banks of Care.
Unmarked, the stream of life glidcs on
To that Eternal Sea;
Where earthly sun hath never shone,
Nor aught of earth can be.
And this, to me- is spell
That binds me to the night
That bathes each wild untroden dell
In waves of mystic light.
There are who say this wondrous world
Is but work of chance;
That earth, like some huge scroll, unfurled
And wrought its own advance;
That senscless atoms blindly grew
Into world of light;
That creatures no Creator knew
That deaths eternal night
o man, with aspirations high
Is this the end you crave:
o man, with soul that cannot die,
And perish in the grave
Are all the wonders prophets told
But wild delusive dreams.
And can it be that human mould
Is but the clay it seemsl
Shall love and virtue live on earth,
And with the earth decay:
Shall faith, and hope, and stainless worth
Pass like dream aways
Come forth, thou false and subtle sage!
Creation read Alright
Cast off the glittering mists of age
And clear thy clouded sight
Throw down, throw down the guilty pen
Break off the stubborn mask:
The creed thou dar'st assert to men,
Its truth of Nature ask
AT morn, at noon, or sacred eve,
On land or on the sea,
The lightest sound thy step may leave
Shall breath " Eternity =
Come tread with me this dizzy height,
And, through this waste of air,
Gaze out upon the forms of night
yEb,, &c +b;,,n .usuor
The moonlit fields of waving corn,
That ripening harvests fill;
The bubblins springs where lakes are born,
To man subservient still
All speak of His unboundcd love
Who caused these streams to flow,
Who fed those fields from founts above,
And made the harvest grow.
And wheresoe'er the broad moons rays
In matchless beauty fall,
They mirror forth to thoughtful gaze
The Hand that fashioned all.
There's not plant upon the earth,
There's not a tree nor flower,
.aBut bears the stamp of heavenly birth;
Y The proof of heavenly power.
The very leaf on which you tread
Was wrought with wondrous hand
A fragment of a volume dread
That speaks to every land.
A book unchanged from age to age
The same since time began:
For Nature is living page
That breaches God to man!

neafh Of HONOR BOardman.

The Hon. HOMER BoARDMAN died in
New Milford on the 26th Of May, in the
s7th year Of his age.
Through life he was practical Con-
necticut farmer. He cultivated his beau
tiful patrimoniAl estate on the banks Of
the Housatonic, on which he was borns
lived, and died. He was descended from
one of the most ancient and hSporable
families of this State. His strong mind
was highly improved by extensive read
ing and constant interco urse with the
best society. Of CO mmanding person,
and head of the finest form, his manners
were those of the old New-England gen.
tlemen, "a by-gone race, kind. courteous
and digni6ed. His disposition was cheer
full, his habits social, his hospitality un~
bounded. These qualities made his house
the happy resort of an extensive circle
admiring friends and relatives.
His strong practical common sense,
sound judgment, and incorruptible integ-
rity. imposed upon him Che sought them
not) many offices of high public and pri-
vate trusts. From 1905 to 1880. a Pc
Rod of five and twenty years, he was
repeatedly member of each branch
our State Legislature. In 1929 and
1880, he was member of the Senate,
and in 1924, an Eector Of President and
Vice President of the United States
The duties of the various offices which
he filed, were wisely and satisfactorily
discharged.
Though Of robust constitution and
industrious and temperate habits, he had,
for more than thirty years, been subject
to attacks from govt, and the victim of
that painful and unyielding malady."-
For several of the last years Of his life
he had been confined to his house and to
his room, and much of his time to his
bed. During a long and distressing con-
tinement, no murmur escaped his lips.
The patience and equanimity with which
he bore excruciating pain. was the adj
miration of all who Witnessed his suffer-
ings.
His memory will long be cherished
with the purest affection by numerous
friends and relatives; his death deeply
deplored by the wise and good. B.

Extraordinary Case.-The Cincinnati
Gazette gives the following account Of a
singular accident and a lameptablc re-
suit: a.
About the lst Of April, Mary, second
daughter Of our old associate, William
D. Gallagher, and most interesting and
intelligent young lady, was exercising
with ball on the Capitol grounds, at
Washington City. In running after the
ball she slipped on an iron grating over a
window at the east front Of the capitol,
her foot passed between the bars, and
her limb passed down to above the knee.
She was extricated and vent home
There was no appearance of a severe ex-
ternal wound, and no bone was broken
or dislocated, but she complained of ex-
circulating pain. She was placed in bed,
and medical aid called in. She soon
sank, aud continued to be in a lethargic
and almost insensible state, with her eyes
closed, for about thirty days She spoke
not except with effort, single expressions
to make her wants known. The first
hall of this time her only nourishment was
gum water; then she took little orange
juice, and then weak oyster broth. In
the meantime the bruises Oh her limb.
slight as they were, were healed, yet her
mind continued lethargic-it grew dark
or and darker. About the first of May,
the physicians gave up all hope of res
toring her mind, and recommended her
removal to the Hospital at Baltimore,
where she was carried on the 9th inst.
