THE POETS MISSION.


poet must long arise,
And with a regal song sun crown this age,
As q saint head is with halo crown'd:-
One who shall hallow Poetry to God,
And to its own high use, for Poetry is
The grandest chariot wherein king thoughts rde:-
Oae, who shall fervent grasp the sword of song,
As Atern swordsman grasps his kseDest blade,
To find the quickest passage to the heart
mighty Poet whom this age shall choose
To be its spokesman to all coming times
In the ripe full blown season of his soul,
He shall 60 forward in his spirits strength,
And grapple with the questions OF all time,
And A wiring from them their meanings AS King Saul
Called up the buried prophet from his grave
70 speak his doom, SO shall this Poet king
Call up the dead Past from tsawful grave
70 tell him of our future. AS the air
Doth sphere the wseld so shall his heart of love-
Loving mankind, not peoples As the lake
Reflects the flower, tree, rock, and bending heavea
Shall he reflect great humanity;
And the young Spring breathes with living breath
On dead branch till it spouts fragrantly
Green leaves and sunny flowers, shall he breathe
like
Through every theme he touch making all Beauty
And Poetry for ever like the stars.
Nothing could be in higher vein than this
it reminds us of the solemn grandeur. the fne
humanity of Wordsworth. But it was not Alex.
ander Smith, who sat for the likeness. Here
Is another admirable passage of similar cast.
which the poet takes care to put into the mouth
of one of his interlocutors in the socalled
drama.
We must reverse
The plans ofages Let the body sweat
SO thatthe soul be calm, why should lit work.
Say, had spent the pith OF half my life,
And m ade the master of our English law
What gain had on resurrection morn,
But sach as h1th the body Of clown
That it could turn somnsrset earthf
single soul is richer than all worlds
It's acts are only shadows OF ITSELF
A nd oft its wondrous wealth is all unknown
IT'S ike mountain range, whose rugged sides
Feed starvelng ,cks of sheep pierce the bare sides
And they ooze oenteons gold. We must go down
And work souls like mines make books our lamps
Not shrines to worship at nor heed the world,
Let il go roaring past You sigh for Fame;
Would long Jacob for his love.
SO you mi ht win her Spirits calm and still
Are high above your order as the stars
Sit large and Tranquil DER the restless clouds
Thatveek and tighten pelt the earth with hail
And fret themselves ava. The truly great
Rest in the knowledge of their own deserts,
Nor seek the confirmation Of the world
Woaldst thou be calm and stilf
We have also one or two expressions hery'
hearted, religious scorn At the creeping, trading
msmmon-worshipping spirit of the age. They
show that the heart of the poet 10 made OF the

Row NEAR THE ARMoRY BRIDGE.-The fol-
lowing evidence, desert ptive of discreditable
scene which, was enacted near the Armory
Bridge Sunday evening, the 3oth ultimo, was
adduced before the Mayor Saturday:
B. Chadwick deposed to the fact that on Sun
day afternoon, while standing in a street near
the Armory, saw Several men passing in parties
One of the men belonging to one of the parties,
threw brick at another man. A fight ensued
between the man who threw the brick and the
One whom he aimed to strike. He (Chadwick)
stepped up, parted the mon, and thus prevented
any injury. Both were strangers to him, did not
know the name of either of the belligerents
R. Mundin confirmed Chadwick's statement;
but did not know the names of the men engaged
in the fight.
Sylvester Barrett deposed as follows: I live
on 5th street, near the Armory Bridge. Sunday
afternoon last between the hours of five aud six
O'Clock number of fellows called at my mothers
house. / was up stairs with several arquaint>
ances. They wanted something to drnd, and
sent young "chap" out for some liquor. AS he
was returning with it, coming up the alley three
Or four fellows attempted to take the bottle from
him. When he reached the yard, they were
"jawing" him and he was returning the compli
ment. The fellows said they would kill him
when they caught him. went down stairs in
to the alley for the purpose of quelling the row.
when of the outside fellows struc at NO.
The uncle Of the ''chap" who went for the Ii
Door, whipped him because he got into row.
The name of the ''chap" is Martin Russell, and
when he went home the fellows who attempted
to take the bottle, followed him. Did not know
the names of any of tho party.
A warrant having been issued for the arrest OF
J. Hardigen and John Pearmau-two individu-
ais supposed to be concerned in these discredisIs
proceedings-the Mayor continued the case I'M
til Tuesday, under the hope that the officers
