The Two Knells.

ec From tie Louisville Journal.
Hark! here ye the bell sounding forth on the air
1t is soling the kne Of the lovely and fair.
And it bushes the mirthfut and saddens the gay,
For it tells Of q spirit from earth called away.
Gee. low DER her ashes each stricken one bends,
And the deep wall Of anguish comes up from her
friends;
For bright ray of sunshine forever has fed,
And the hopes of the mourners lie low with the dead
And many heart for the early dead bleeds
And many tongue recounts all her deeds;
And MANY kind words to the mourners are given
As balm for the hearts which affection hath riven.
But OH there's knell which the world cannot hear,
That sounds all UNDECIDED, except by one ear;
And the depth of the death drge it bears in its tone,
TO none, save the stricken, can ever be known.
IT'S the death knen Of hopes that have vanished
away
Tis the death kneI of dreams that were bright as
the day;
And its last lingering tone as it dies on the air,
Leaves the soul filed with gloom, and theheart with
despair.
And there is no eye with that weeper to weep
And there is no friend his 'one vigs can keeps
And there is none other that ever can know
The depth of his grief and the weight OF his woe.
Oh God! cheer the mourner, whose deso!ate heart
Is forced from its hopes so long cherished to part
None other can pity-none other can save,
When the ashes Of hope are laid low in the grave
