her beloved sovereign at the drawing-room,

TRUTH ABOUT DEATH.

The common mode Of discoursing on this
subject, so interesting to every one Of ue. is %
stllted and over our heads. that we are glad 10
hear Common Sense have his say about it
Thus sensibly and wisely writes some able
man, In the English Revielc:
" 1t is great thing, unutterably awful and
thriiling-when for the first time in our lives
Death the Conqueror makes himself known to
us In all the mystery Of his might and inexo-
rableness. Every day the newspaper has its
obituary; you are well aware tha fifty people
die In a minute; you have been In the habit
OF looking up at closed blinds in the street
with some sort Of awe; and hatchments In the
great squares have touched you as might a
baronial ruin a newly made grave has not
been without a voice and q moral funerals
have intercepted your path in the thorough
fares; people have died next door TO YOU
But even Death next door is death afar off-a
vague distant terror, and not darkly awful
presence. Stand-with suspended respiration
and fevered temples-stand under the very
fapping Of his wings, as the inexorable stoope
to breathe the last chill upon the forehead of
some beloved one; feel that the solemn sha-
dow in which you stand is deepening and
deepening; kneel when the silver cord is
snapped, kneel by the pale corpse in the hush
OF an hour before dawn, with no sounds to be
heard but the sobs of passionate mouruers and
the ticking cf a clock-kneel, and say to God
tne never more OF bereaved heart. the
- Help, Lord, or / perish" of q soul that is
come into the deep waters so stand, so kneeI,
SO cry TO the Lord of life, and you will know
what death is, and what a celestial hone NAV
rise at last, luminous and large, out of the
blakness Of horror in that word-pEAD.
A simple child (says wordsworth)-a simple
child,
That lightly draws its breath,
And feels its life in every limb
What should It know Of death,
And il is beautifully said. But was long.
very long past the age of childhood, before L
coald bring myself to believe in dying. To
this day, can with difficulty only, and by
direct mental effort, conceive even of one dan
gerously sick as dying-dead So completely
does actual, present life, even when faint and
futtering, keeps its negation out Of my sight
That the beautiful flame which lights up the
eye, .and glows in the touch, should ever 20
out

To lie in cold obstruction and 10 rot;
This sensible warm motion to bee me
A kneaded clod,
And other pulses to 60 on beating; and the
stars to keep step along the sky I; and the south
wind to ripple the rivers and stir the leaves Of
the trees; and little children to prattle and
