THOUGHTS ON VIEWING THE CRAVE
OF MY SISTER.

BY ROMULUs.
Unseen by mortal eyes stood
And viewed the little mound.
Wherein sister, loved, was laid
Beneath the damp, cold ground
While watching Ger this sacred snot
And thinking of the dead,
n sudden trembling shook my frame,
And filled my mind with dread.
Imagining fancy led me back
10 years long since past by.
When thou and |, sw eet sister dear
In gleeful childish play,
Were wont to seek our favorite nlaca
In yon fair shady bower, .,.
And talking DER our youthful plans
Spend many happy hour.
but DEATH the mighty conqueror, came.
And claimed thee as his own:
ana to yon bright and happy shore
Thy spirit fair hath flown:
But when the last arch-angers trump
Shall wake the sleeping dead,
Wen meet on yon bright yerdant sbor.
Triumphant with our Head"

1906 and 1907, for the sake of Austria and England
for English gold and the honor Of Austria against

some territorial acquisitions, and England SAYS
that Russia is too large and must be reduced by the
sword of another usurper-Napoleon III.
