THE SPIRIT OF MY DREAMS.
BY JENkY.

Il 10 a gentle loving spirit
That ever haunIs me- IN nv dreams,
Ever sooth. my anxious pillow,
Watts my soul to fairy scenes;
To scenes eI, Sian where the str, amlct
Reve!s in the moonlight leams,
Reposipg ON bed OF roses
Rests the spirit Of my dreams.
Far away 10 sparkling fountains,
Mirrored in their waters clear,
Hand III hand this spirit guide,h
Whispering love notes IN my ear;
All our path Is stlewn with flowers,
Fairy like this being seems
Ever joyful, miithiul, happy,
Is the spirit Of my dreams.
Gaily chanting some wild diuis,
Plucking the falrest rs we stray
or the beauteous flowers that's breathing,
Perfume on our winding way,
And its voice is SO melodIous,
Its bright eye 50 merry beans.
List, ] hear the heavenly music
OF this spirit of my dreams.
Now we linger by the margin
Oi lake whose peaceful breast
Mirrors our floating rinelets
Playing with each glistening tress,
Softly woos US on its bosom
Floating down this magic stream,
Ever watched by this angel
This sweet spirit Of my dream.
Then we rest in rose wreathod bowers
Wove with flowers Of every hue,
Where the birds are ever warbling
Our canopy the heavens SO blue.
All it folds its wings around me
Leaves me in these bli,sful scenes,
But to awake unto the real
Fied's the spirit Of my dreams.

M Y BOY.
by REV. JOHN pIERpoNT.

Jean not make him dead
His fair snnshiny head
Is ever bounding round my study-chair;
Yet when my eyes, now dim
. With tears, I.urptn him,
The yisiomyanishes-.he is not'there'!A't7
walk my parlor floor,
And, through the open door,
| hear f,olfall on the chamber stair;
I'm stepping toward the hall,
To give the hoy call,
And then bclhink me that-he is not
there!
Thread the crowded street,
A sachel'd lad | meet,
With the same beaming eyes and coll
ored hair;
And, as hos running by,
Fellow him with my eye,
Scarcely believing that-heis not there!
! know his face Is hid
Under the cotfin-lid;
Closed are his eyes; cold his forehead
fair;
My hand that marble felt
Ger it in prayer | knelt;
Yet my heart whispers that-he is not
there!
can not make him dead
When passing by his bed,
So long watched over with pa,ernal care,
My spirit and my eye
Seek it imploringly,
Before the thought comes that-he is
not there
When at the cool, grey break
OF day, from sleep wake.
With my FIRST breathing of the morning
air,
My soul goes up with joy,
To Him whn gave my boy,
Then comes the sad thought that-he is
not there
When at the days calm close,
Before we seek repose,
I'm with his mother, offering up our
prayer.
Whate'or may be saying,
lam, in spirit, praying
For our boys spirit, 'hough-hc is not
there
No, ,herel Where, then, is hc'
The fnrm nsed To see
Was but the raimeat that he used to
wear.
The grave tina, now doth press
Upnn the cast.ul' dress,
Is but his wardrobe locked-he is not
there
He livesl In all tho past
He lives; nor To the last,
OF seeing him again will ! despair;
In dreams see him now.
And ON his angel brow
| I SEQ is written, "Thou shalt see me
Mcre!"
Yes, we all live to God!
Father, thy christening rod
So beln MS thine afflicted ones 10 bear
That, in the spirit'lana,
Meeting at thy right hand,
