sr euIssAx.


Where the Sierra rears its loffiest height,
The moon now shines with calm cold light.
Aud sadly, and slowly, the tall pines wave
Der the cross that marks an unknown grave
That marks an unknown miners grave.
The mother is sad and lonely her breast,
For her son is away in The distant west;
The lamp burns low; by its fckering light
Her eyes grow dim, and her hair is white:
And her hair is snowy white.
The sister kneels at the mo,hersf feet,
And thoughts of her wandering brother sweet
Come ,hronging fast she lifts her heart,
Her eye is bright and her cheek is red:
And the rose on her cheek is red,
Of her absent lover the maiden dreams,
Casped in her arms. again he seems;
Her form now heaves with blisstul sigh,
Her eye is moist. her heart beats high:
And her her heart with hope beats high.
But the lamp is out, the rose is dead;
Fen hope itself has trembling fled;
And mother, sister, maiden grieve
For him who fills the unknown grave:
Who fills The unknown miners grave.

Oh. Dickie Lee Oh, Dckie Lee.
OF the sunny days gone by;
The bonny lad called my lover,
The bonny lad that loved no other,
No other lass but me!
Oh, we were in love when our years were few,
And our hearts were fresh as the morning dew
Six years was |, and seven was he:
And since those days long years have passed.
Long years of blossom and OF BLAST
But in them all, there never grew
A love more sweet, love more true,
Than that of Dickie Lee.
/ often think of Dickie Lee.
And the summers long ago
Of the old school-hopse and the little brook,
With its messy banks in the shaded nook.
Where we would fish, till the bell did ring,
with our home made line Of bonnet string,
And crooked pin that served for a hook,
And learned more JOY than the spelling book.
But if we were late, and the teacher cross,
The blow and rebuke | counted as dross.''
And during it all, only could see.
The sparkling dark eyes OF Dickie Lee.
| wonder now if Dickie Lee,
Looks back across the years,
Smiling, perhaps, at the thought of me,
And the funny times we used to see,
In that school house dim OF yore,
On the little bench close beside the door,
The little bench that would hold bat four
jamie. Lois, Dcke and me-
And the lambs of the flock were we,
] wonder now If he ever thinks.
Of the dreadful time he stole the pinks
And roses rare TO give 10 me
And what befel poor Dickie Lee
They tell me that my Dickie Lee
Is man Of wealth and pride;
That he has slips upon The sea,
TILES too of high degree,
And that lady became his bride,
Very well, let il be,
Tickle have been as lie.
'Tis many year since he was my lover
Loving me we'll and loving other;
''rs many year since the bare.ooted lad.
Romped close by my side. making merry and
glad
'Ts many year, lis many year,
Phat seals up the past and brings down tear
But think OF him yet as laughing boy,
Knowing dreaming OF naught b1t joy,
Unless he dreampt of me.
And would not see the man Of care
That calls himself Richard Lees
That has wasted cheeks aud thin gray hair,
For, oh he would steal from me
Something love and cherish well,
An image shrined in secret cell,
Aud it is dear to mes
Though the face is freck led. and plain and lean
Yet memory calls it bright and serene;
Aad keepeth the spot of its dwelling green
For the sake of Dickie Lee,
The little boy chat long ago
Was really in love with me-
