EVENING STAR.
fFoR THE STAR.
PRAYER

By MISS K. N, OF WARRINGTON.
Sweet morning is breaking, morn rosy and bright,
The gray dawn is mingling with rays OF gold
light,
The dew-spangled earth, meath the zePhyr's soft
tread.
Speaks gently to Nature, that midnight has fed.
Rise, rise from thy sumber, thou indolent heart
Let the freshness Of morning new vigor impat,
Go fOrth-the pure atmosphere fragrant and fair,
When day Is fast 1eeting. when morning is past,
w ben evening its shadowy spells DER thee cast,
When the sun in rich sPlendor sinks slowly to
rest
And gilds its bright pathway, like hope in the
breast
When twilight is stealing. and beams from afar,
The faint lambert raw of the soft evening star,
Oh then search thy heart. thy bosom prepare
10 respond with devotion in Pureness Of prayer
And at midnighi's deep hou', when silence is
creeping
Far DER the earth when the darkness is sleeping.
sweet thoughts, full OF holiness, pass o er the
heart
And fanciful visions, too soon to depart.
While the bright queen of night moving gently
on high,
With the stars for her maidens. light up the dark
sky:
Look fOrtlI--the calm radiance though lovely and
fair.
Is rendered more lovely, more hallowed by prayer.
And when thy last moments appear TO thy view
10 give an account of thy life, strict and true,
Oh turn not away in thy vain human pride
~ CHING to the earth and leave Jesus side;
Sa>t all lar away but His Ter failing love,
Ana let thy hope rest IN the regions above
" heh He calls thee in glory to dwell with him
there.

JOURNALISM AND OEFICE.

Stme Of the promisent journals in the western
pant ofthis State are commenting, with more orless
severity, on the appointment Ct Mr.. J. B. Swain
a. a member Of the newly created Board Of R.il-
WY Commissioners. The Buffalo Commercial Ad-
rert,ssr even charges that Mr.. Swain was smug-
g'ed into the Office by discredssble trick on the
part Of the Lieutenant Governor, who, it seems
lad employed him ss letter wIiter-a charge
that func,ionary has not yet denied. Other jour
Isls represent Swain as totally unit for this Of
fee, or for any other requiring ability or indus
toy; but on that topic We do not care to comment.
To be sure, the impudence Of making him the
collessue Of such men as John T. CLARK and
William J. McAlpin Is rather lofty, but it has .
sort Of justification in lite succen; and besides, Ii
can no longer be helped. The sole use nov
to be made Of the even! 10 TO point 4 moral
adorn tale ii cannot.
The oply claim the individual In question could
have urged for his appointment to publ; office.
must have been Q connection with the Pfess. he
had been writer for . newspsper-s journalist
and desired 10 leave that trade for another. So
