THE ANGELS MISSION.

A mother by her dying child,
Sat and watched and wept,
Till visions fair her fears beguiled,
For weary, ut last she slept.
She saw, she thought, m angel fair,
While thus enwrapt in sleep,
To heaven her dear infant bear.
And bid her cease to weep.
The mother woke, and praise revealed
Her tender feelings when she found,
fhe child Ia deaths embraces sealed,
Whom angels had so lately crowned
Submission over grief prevailed,
And earnest thanks to God was given,
That enc, her tenderness bewailed,
Had joined the angel choir in heav'n
A few short days then fed away,
When in the home so newly riven,
Her angel came again to pay
The purpose Of her blessed mission.
Rise from thy clay beloved one,
Full pardon to thee is given,
Salvation through the blessed Son
Come meet thy child in heaven"

Rough and stormy, has been life's blasts.
Der our heads, through all the past
But let Us live, con amore,
Ever serving God 10 unity:
Remembering, that a crown He'll give,
To all, who on his name believe.
Let care and sorrow pain the breast,
AL evils only make our rest
BE more sweet, when once tits gained
Aud when sweet Heaven we've obtained.
No foul c%orruptions Ger can faint,
"A heart of one Of Christ's least saints:
But bliss, unmixed and unalloyed,
Ever there will be enjoyed.
Round His bright and azure throne.
No tempest, stormy Winds are blown.
All join their voice in tuneful lays,
To chant their Makers glorious praise.
How will each songster's harp be strung.
Yielding to God each strain that sung
PRISClLLA.
The Response; Accompanied with a Bo-
quet,
Bloom on, ye bright and fragrant flowers,
Through life's e~ventful day
Till Times decisive, ~frosting power.
Thy beauties all, shall slay.
So, may the beauteous face Of her.
To whom this Boquet's given,
Shine brilliantly on earth, while here.
And glOriously in Heaven.
There, in a higher, richer soil,
: Transplanted, we shall rest;
Where anxious thought, and care, and toll,
Meier reach the happy blest.
Ihese tboaghts inspire my youthful heart,
To love Thee, wife most dear;
Nor will / from THIS love depart.
So give thyself NO fear.

And a son Of Bacchuss be.

And now | simply ask,
Where arc those guests whose dies were cast
The night Of the joyous feastf
Art now the chains which friendship forged
As strong as then appeared9
10 now the light Of love outpoured,
Or the joyous laugh still heard?
No, no-alas ! the chain soon broke,
The pealing laugh died away,
And in their festive places woke,
Addiction and ARRAY.
And where is he who babe me come
AAd drink the sparkling wine?
Does now his heart, once loves abode
With his better angel Irvine?
Go look within that dungeon wall
See there his palsied frame,
See there the works Of Alcohol
The thief that stole his brain. j. T. e.

come up better, and are much more easily tended.
and that the product is largely increased.
Th1s hight and durable plow is easy to both
