A PRAYER OF FAITH.
BY EDWARD ASHTON.

Sunshine never, never failing,
Lights the blest and gladstone day, :
When the prayer Of faith prevailing,
Chases every doubt away,
Till each shadow, dark and dreary,
Rising to the upper sky,
Only points the week and weary
To a better home on high!
And the eye will sparkle brightly
With new hopes that FIJI the heart,
Till the visions blessing nightly,
Seem of heavena glorious part;
Till the flowers that blossom gaily
On the everlasting hills,
Shall their perfume watt as daily,
Sweeiening alllife's cup of ills!
For the sins that rise like mountains
May be banished by such prayer,
Till again loves golden fountains
Flash like diamonds on the air,
And each spirit-clouding sorrow
Ownsits ever-conquering power,
Till a coming happier hour! /.
OF acoming happier hour.
Thenbe ours suchfaith in praying;
For il moves the arm Of God,
For a heaven foundation laying
Where none feel sin'styrant rodi
And in answer now ard ever,
Grace sufficient for the day,
Shall uphold us that we never
Faint dong the heavenly wayl

THOUGHTS ON DEATH


l know that soon this head will rest
Beneath the damp cold sod,
know this heart soon, soon will cease
Each anxious wild life -throb;
I feel that death has truly marked
Me for his victim now,
Ais chilly hand is on my frame
And must meekly bow.
But do not grieve-oh! no. I've wished
Tnus early to depart;
I've lived quite long enough to know
Deep, deep bitterness of heart;
I've found that life is not all fair
A cloud less sunny day,
Though young I've felt the tcmpest's breati
Across my weary way.
Ny arguishcd spirit oft has sought
Some refuge from life's troubled wave,
AMI where, oh! where, can this be found
Save in the silent gravel
Then ask me not why should smile
And calmly wait life's close,
Why death hath all its terror lost
And seek its deep repose
For why should one still wish to live
When all that made life dear
Hath fed? leaving the saddened heart
All desoate and drear;
Then welcome death-,farewell vain earth,
To others thou all bright mayst be
To others still unfold thy joys
But thou, alas, hast none for me.
