For the Grand River Times.
THE DYING POET.

THE DYING POET
Away, away in his gloomy cell,
On his humble couch Poet lay;
Softly the gentle moonbeams fell,
For the rosy twilight had faded away.
Deep shades of sorrow were plainly traced
On his massive brow, where the cold sweat shone;
The visage of death was stamped on his face;
He had sought his bed to die alone.
With a trembling hand he strung his Lutte
His Lutte that had been so long unstrung-
And from his lips, so cold and mute,
His last, sad song but feebly rung.
"Oh where are the friends of my childhood, now
Are they fled with the fieeting hours gone byY
There is no kind hand to press my brow
There is no one near to see me die
left my home with heart beating high;
With hopes of youth that are wild and strong;
Ihave wandered away, alone, to die;
For there's none to love the child Of song"
Then his voice grew sad, and sweetly low,
AS he told what sorrows had been his lot
And he family murmured, 81 long to go
To the land where sorrow entereth not
Then spirits came from that far off land,
And kindly whispered, Brother, come
The child-poet joined the shadowy band'
And waited away to his happy home.

DifD,

In Excelsior, Minnesota Territory, April 26, af.
ter few hours illness, of cholera, Mrs. ELLEN b.,
wife of Henry N. Herrick, and daughter of Henry
4. and Caroline Barns, Of Stowe Vt aged 81.
In the death of Mrs. Herrick not only her i'm
mediate relatives, but the community in which
she dwelt until few months before her death sus-
tain a severe loss. And their grief is rendered
more poignant by the fact that she died so sud-
denly among strangers, with relative or ac-
quaintance near her but her husband, to soothe
her dying pillow. 1t is gratifying, however to
learn that the people of that far-off region were
not wanting in sympathy for the afflicted Says
a lady of Excelsior, who stood by Mrs. III. con-
stantly during her brief illness, in few words of
consolation to Mrs Barns, " Her death has cast a
gloom over our entire village, it being so sudden
and unexpected, also the first death in the vicini-
ty." Excelsior is small town on lake Minneton-
ka, twenty miles west of ST. Anthony's Falls, at
the very verge of civilization. They had arrived
there only the day previous to her death, intend
ing to make Excelsior their future home. She
was well as usual at the time of her arrival, tho
it is apprehended that she had contracted the dis
ease on board the boat that carried them up the
Mississippi. She was seized very suddenly with
vomiting; and, although she had the best of med
ical care during the few hours she survived no re-
lief could be afforded her.
Mrs Herrick was lady Of exemplary Christian
character, and after she was appraised by her hus-
band and the physician that she could live but
short time, she expressed the utmost resignation.
She said, "Tell my father and mother. and broth
and sisters, to be good Christians !" and to her
husband, O. want you to live in the fear of the
Lord, and be kind to everybody"
There is n calm for those who ween
A rest for weary pilgrims found,
They softly lie and sweetly sleep
Low in the ground"
