Tough" If she did linger on for
a time, it was plying love for her babes
that kept her alive, gave strength to
her feeble limbs, and endurance to her
sinking heart. And as she became
weaker, he seemed rather to recede,
than drsw near-to grow cold towards
her, instead Of tender and compassion
ate. And so her day went down in
clouds and rain.
No, she had not been appreciated.
Mr.. Newcomb was good sort Of .
man, taking the general acceptation of
the words--a pleasant neighbor, an
agreeable friend, an honest citizen !;
but he had not proved a good husband
to the woman he had taken to be his
wife, simply because he had not right

cached her consciousness. She was
Of finer spiritual texture than he i'm
agined, and died because she could
not live in the earth-laden atmosphere
he compelled her to breathe.

Twas q lovely Sabbath In Septem-
Der. In the parlor of vine clad cot
tage sat youthful group, engaged in
would-be cheerful conversation. But
though they smile as they talked, l.
an unobserved observer-saw = sad ex-
preston on the countenance of each,
heard half-stiaed signs, saw lips culver
with emotion and eyes fill with tears:
They talked of parting, and | learned
that on the morrow three of their num-
Der were to leave for distant land.
I heard them join in i parting hymn,
and when the shadows Of evening fell
thicker the whole household were as
sembled, portion Of Gods word was
read, and all knelt solemnly at the
throne Of grace, while the father earn
estly besought the Divine blessing.
As l left the scene, l said to myself,
In two years, l will revisit this little
cottage ard mark the changes wrought.
The two years passed. The first fall
ing leaf of September recalled my VOW.
and l fastened to fulfill it.
The door Of the cottage was ajar.
NY entrance did not arouse the only
person in the room-a young lady
one of the SIR assembled there two
years ago. She sat gazing through
her tears at the miniature Of anothe
of the group, and as she gazed ant
wcpt such were her words:
1.-TWO years ago, tonight, brothers
sisters. friend, were here now wher,
are they? All scattered!

Of the Mississippi and the fierce howl
ing of the northwest wind sing ;
mournful requiem over a newl y-madt
grave. There they have laid the cole
dead form Of the one whose image il
before me. There is one Of the group
who talked, sung and knelt together
two years ago. My brother, o, my
brother! In vain I long for a sister,!
presence, a sisters tears, to mingl'
with my own in this lone hour. Ny
sisters are far away !; my remaining
brother, too, is not with me, and m,

of life with strong arm and heart

grave, I cannet tell. I only know tina
they are scattered-all scattered"

but, as I walked silently away, tina
word /" scattered" rung in my ears
and I thought, Would it not be bette
were we devoid of affection ?-incapa
Bile of forming friendships for thel
no pangs Of sorrow would pierce on
hearts when death stole one from GU

So have l seen rose newly sprine
ing from the cleits of its hood, and, q,
first, il was fair rs the morning, and full
with the dew of heaven, rs n lambs
fleece; but when q ruder breath had
forced open its virgin modesty, and dis.
mantled its too youthful and unripe re.
tirements, 1t began to put on darkness
and to decline to softness and the symp.
toms of a sickly age; il bowed the head
and broke its stalk; and at night, having
lost some Of its leaves and all OF lis
beauty, it fell into the portion of weeds
and outworn faces. The same is the
portion ofevcry man and every woman;
the heritage of worms and serpcnts,
rottenness and cold dishonor, and our
beauty so changed that our acquaint-
ance quickly knows us not; and that
change, mingled with so much horror,
or else meets so with; our fears and
week discoursings, that they who, six
hours ago, tended upon us either with
charitable or ambitious services, cannot.
without some regret, stay in the room
alone where the body lies stripped of
its life and honor.
