BY II. W. LogcFELLew.
When the hours of day are numbered,
And the voices of the night
Wake the better soul that slumbercd,
10 a holy calm delight.
Ere the evening lamps are lighted,
And, like phantoms grim aud tall,
Shadows from the fitful freight
Dauce upon the pa, lor wall;
Then the forms of the departed
Enter at the open door;
The beloved. the truc-hearted,
Come to visit nae once more.
He, the young and strong, who cherished
Noble longings for the strife,
BY the roadside fell and perished,
Weary with the march of life.
They, the holy one and weakly,
Who the cross of suffering bore,
Folded their pale hands SO meekly,
Spoke with us on earth no more.
And with them the being beauteous,
Who unto my youth was given,
More than all things else to love me,
And is now saint in Heaven.
With slow and noiseless footstep
Comes the messenger divine,
Takes the vacant chair beside me,
Lays her gentle hand in mine.
And she sits and gazes at me,
With those deep and tender eyes,
Like the stars SO still and saint-like,
Looking downward from the skies.
Uttered not, yet comprehcnded,
Is the spirits voiceless prayer,
Soft rebukes, in blessings ended,
Breathing from her lips of air.
0, though oft depressed and lonely,
All my fears are laid aside,
If but remember only
Such as tn ese have lived and died.

I am strengthened in this conclusion,
by the accounts handed down to us Of

Solomon occasionally favors '1ittle

credibly informed he was addressing a
set Of old hard heads, who could drink a
full Tom-head without feeling it; it is
also true that our Savior once turned
water into wine, but We don't read that
any one got fuddled on the occasion, and

PO EFT R Y
YOUTH AND AGE.

| often think each totter;pg form
That limps along in life's decline,
Once bore heart as young. as warm,
AS full of idle thoughts as mine!
And each has had its dream of JOY,
Its own uncqualed, pure romance;
Commencing when the blushing boy
First thrills at lovely woman's glance
And each could tell his tale of youth,
Would think it, scenes of love evince
More passion, more of unearthly truth
Than any tale before or since.
Yes they could tell of tender lays
At midnight penned in classic shades,
OF days more bright than modern days
And maids more fair than modern maids.
Of whispers in willing ear;
OF kisses on blushing cheek
Each kiss, each whisper far too dear
Our modern lips to give or speak.
Of passions too untimely crossed;
OF passions sighted or betrayed
Of kindred spirits early lost,
And buds that blossom but to fade.
Of beaming eyes and tresses gay,
Elastic form and noble brow,
And forms that have all passed away,
And left them what we see them now!
And is it thus-is human love
So very light and frail a thing:
Anal must youths brightest visions msoye
Forever en- TIME S restless wing?
Must all the eyes that still are bright,
And all the lips that talk of bliss,
And all the iorn.s SO fair to sight,
Hereafter only come to this'
Then what are earth's best visions worth
If We at length must lose them thus:
If all we value most on earth
Ere long must fade away from u.s.
