THE CHILD'S WISH.

IL want TO be an angel,
And with the angels, stand.
A crown upon my forehead,
A harp within my hand.
There. right before my Savior,
So glorious and so bright,
Id wake the sweetest music,
Anc praise him day and night.
| never should be weary,
Nor ever shed a tear,
Nor ever know q sorrow,
Nor ever feel a fear.
But blessed, pure and holy,
I'd dwell in Jesus sight.
And with ten thousand thousands,
Praise Him both day and night
l know Tn weak and sinful,
But Jesus will forgive;
For many little children
Have gone to heaven to live.
Dear Savior, when | languish,
And lay me down to die,
O. send a shining angel,
To bear me to the sky.
0. then, I'll be an angel,
And with the angels stand,
A crown upon my forehead.
A harp within my hand;
And there, before my Savior,
So glorious and SO bright.
I'll join the heavenly music.
And praise Him day and night.

However strange choice we see,

When mortals meet, their spirits hold
Communion, in the silent air:
And trust, and doubt, and love, and hate.

Our mortal loves will soon be o'er,

necessity in mathematics of carefully pro-

conclusion, gives the mind caution, which
is discretion, "the better part Of valor.''
The study Of astronomy compeIs the mind
to travel the most extensive and foreign:
this removes that narrow self-conceit that
