Remembrance Of Thee.

My heart is o'eriOll of its eladness,
As hower-cups laden with dew;
And bends meath the weight Of It's cladncss
As hly-cups bend meath the dow.
1t is full of lis love to o'erhowng,
And there, like pearl in the sea,
Forever and ever, is glowing
The blessed remembrance Of thee.
Each thought Of my heart is blessing;
Zach wish that it breathes is prayer,
That steals with a gentle caressing
To thee, through the shadowess air;
For my thought, DER and DER, like spirit,
Keeps telling thy prases 10 me;
And my wish is a prayer 10 inherit
The store of the future with thee.

All! Will You Forget Me?
rJ,scribed 10 tie Loce9 Ones at Home.

CORNELIA j. M. JOkDAN.
All, will you forget me, ye loved ones and
true,
When softly Pye murmured my last fond
adeu;
When closed are these eyes in their vision
less sleep,
Say. will you, then, think of your lost one
and weep!
And when the Spring comes with verdure
and bloom,
Will your hands tenderly plant round my
tomb
Roses and woodbine, and meek violets blue
Loving them best because loved them too?
Then will you come at the soft twilight hour,
And wander awhile at the lonely death
bower,
Where sleeps my pale form, silent and cold,
in its rest,
Low down mid the gloom of the graves ST.
lent breast?
Oh. then, as with soft, timid footsteps You
On the turf that so mournfnIly covers my
head,
Forget all the faults which the vanished life
knew,
And think only, the heart once beat tyarmly
for yon.
Though parted the link, in your glad house
hold chain,
Cannot Memory's touch then unite us again,
And Loves fairy whispers call up from the
past
Bright moments Ofjoy death could not Ger
cast!
The days of our childhood, when joyous and
free,
We roamed through the broad fields for
blossom and bee,
And, lingering, knelt by the brooks tiny
wave
In its silvery ripples our bosoms to lave
All, will you not think of the rapture we
knew,
When the first volets lifted their heads TO
the dew,
And the glad birds came back from the
green Southern bowers,
AS Spring walked to light the long sumber-
ing flowers!
And won't you recall, too, the hours when we
played,
Full of childish delight, meath the tall Lo-
Gusts shade;
When the world, bathed in Sunlight from
Heavens azure skies,
Seemed glad fairy to our innocent
eyes!
Now, alas, the bright prism, we saw it
through then,
Has o'erdarkened its colors--agaln, and
again,
We may gaze, but the rainbow-tints silently
And, in hiding the sunlight, leave only the
shade.
Yet, despite the worlds clamor, its rough
ness and strife,
Some flowers will spring in the pathway Of
life,
And the lairest to me are those'blossoms that
CLEAN
All along the green banks of fond Memory's
stream.
They shine through the vapory mist0 that
Like those sunbeams that glisten in showery
skies,
And, whatever the future may bring US at
last,
We've the fragrance still left, of those fow'rs
of the Past.
Then do not forget me, ye loved ones and
true,
when fades the last sound of my dying
adieu-
Though parted the link in your glad house,
hold chain,
Oh, let Memory's touch reunite us again.
