WHERE IS OUR REST.

Where is our rest?
The pleasing palaces of earth,
Where reyel hearts in scenes of mirtb.
Can give TO man no higher birth
They have no rest.
No sunlike gems
That scatter brilliance where they dwell,
No ripping fount, no vocal dell,
No talisman can break the spell,
And give US peace.
With frequent gloom
The busy round of toilng years
Flies DOR US with its freight of fears.
And whispereih ever drought its tears
Seeking rest
But seek it not
In the glad halls where wisdom's lore
Shines out the riches of her store,
Where the full heart asks for no more
Save sweet rest
Have ye not found
o ye fond homes and loving hearts,
refuge, safe from troubles darts?
Have ye no deep-no secret arts
To find rest2
No resting place
Where sorrows wounds may find a balm,
Where storm-tossed spirits feel a calm,
And cen IN rest may seize the palm
Of victory?
The speechless grave
No rest affords; the spirit scars
In restlessness to other shores,
To find place where it no more
Shall seek a rest
The azure blue,
Where murmurs breathe in gentle swels-
Where stars light up their ether cells
All animated nature tells
OF higher rest.
a holy place
Which the pure heart alone can see.
When Christ from sin hath set it free,
And clothed with immortality,
Rests In his love-
There is our rest
Where all of life and bliss supernal.
Where youth in bloom and beauty yernal
Surrounds the throne of the Eternal
Forevermore.

Percival is a prodigy of genius, but has
singular and morbid dread of human So
ciety. The following anecdote Of him is
from the Musical World
His friends were desirous of aiding him
in his poverty, are said to have made a
laughable and halfserious. He was to
lecture to a class of young ladies, in
school. His excessive and morbid sensi-

How could be face those young ladies -
The expedient was finally adopted that he
| should not face them.
Now, young girls have strong and no
doubt highly censurable proclivity to
mirthfulness y, and, unaccustomed to be-
ing lectured to from behind, they could
cot sufficiently repress their spirits The
result may be easily guessed. The lee
lures were abruptly terminated.
AxEcDorE. few weeks ago, lady
who was presel.. at charity sermon in

from church to her own house, she had
occasion to examine her pocket, when, to

a journey for the summer, she had adver-
tised her country house to let, and, ac-
cording to the directions as to where the
owner could be found, the young Count
d'A- called to negotiate for the place.
Arriving at the door, he requested to
speak with her grace. Come up at

staircase, madame has deem very impa-
tient to see you = With polite attempt
to inquire whether he was quite under

alive servant, the count mounted the
stairs, and was shown at once into the
bed room of the lady. All, you are
there = said the lovely Dutchess, now,
then, [ am at your service And throw
ing herself into an easy chair, she drew
up her founces, unclasped her garter,
drew off the silk stocking, and held out
her bare foot to the astonished gentle
man. She and the maid had both taken
him to be the corn-cutter, who had been
sent for that morning All Paris, ex-
cept the Dutchess, were quite amused
with the little blunder.
