The weekly Minnesotian., 1854-07-22
For the Minnrsotian,


To-day, while the sun was pouring down his
flood of fire, with strong and ovcrbearing pow
er, while the dust hung heavily and drowsily
in the air. and everything was heat, saw a
train of carriages passing down our principal
streets slowly and sadly knew that solemn
march, knew they were bearing the dead to
the house appointed for all living. l enquired
who it was, and they told me it was little
child who had died yesterday morning. Slow
ly away went the train. winding through the
dusty town, with that noon-day sun glaring
down upon them with his hot and frey gaze
passed they around and on the bluff and there
ashes to ashes, dust to dust they laid the baby
boy-the earth fell with dull heavy sound
upon the coffin, the grave was filled and all
was over and on again through the village
passed the train, back again to her home went
the mother, but not with her that baby boy
Oh mother, we chide thee not for t,y heaving
bosom and thy fearful eye. We all know how
dear these family ties are and how terrible how
incxpressibly terrible it is when they are snap
ped by the rude hand of fdcath. We too have
loved ones at home, who are as dear to us as
our being little angels with ilaxen hair and
blLbling larg' .tc", who are cnshrincd within the
hearts temples. God snstan thee mother ,and
heal the bruised spirit and the broken heart
But, why gricvc the early dead, why mourn
the spirit fed? What do the early dead leave
to lament on earth not to thcm-nOt to them
the care the cross, the pain, the anguish, the
despair. In beauty's bloom they are cut
away with no cloud upon the brow, with no sin
in gulclcss heart with no terror in the de-
parting soul peacefully they breathe life
away and go without sigh or vain regret, to
the bosom of their father God. Better for us
that we had died thus, that we had gone
straight from the womb to God, than to linger
along for years and go there at last with the
brand scared deep into the brow and the soul
filter for hell than heaven. H.

Words of Kindness.

Oh! how sweet are words Of kindness,
Flowing from loving heart;
What on earth can we lind sweeter
Than the JOY which they impart.
In our sorrow, in our sadness,
Kind words prove healing hahn
And in life's most adverse tempest
They around US breathe calm.
Let us never speak unkindly,
Lest one word should pierce too deep;
Hearts made up of finest feeling
Never cause heart to weep,
Never let the voice Of anger
Any dropping mind Oppress;
Rather bind a broken spirit
Rather makes life's troubles less.
Sweet are words when fifty spOken---
OFT they give the spirit cheer;
Sweet is whispered consolation
To the child Of sorrows ear.
Oh without one word Of kindness.
Poor, indeed, our hearts would be
For kind words, lie Angels whispers,
Fill the soul with holy glee,
Joy would ever spring around US
If our love was uncontined;
Earth would soon have less OF sorrow
Ii Oui words were Cnly kind.
