DEATHS.

In West Newton, Mass, Sept !, Mrs. MARIA c. wife
Lucus IT, Pratt and daughter Of james Hastings Of Brae
boro, aged 80 years.
And she hath fed gone in the Of youth,
To other worlds where shadows cannot come
While her young brow shonc bright with Christian truth.
Her sweet eyes oscd, and angels bore her home
Why should We weep! oh, is it all Of life
To dwell on earth aud wreste with its care
Have we no joys beyond these of strife
No treasures bright in Heaven-no blessings there
All, chase the clouds away from every brow
Dry up the tears that tretnhle Ia each eye;
Que more is changed into dnyei HOw,
To wait for you, beyond the glorious sky.
The sumner shines DER the gladstone earth,
The fair young flowers blooming in our way
Dear to each heart the mornings of their birth,
Though soon they fade, and leave day by day.
But oh, within her little garden spot,
Are deathltss Aforementioned with tender care
Through all the live-long Hay she cometh not
At eve .hey weep, because sie is not there.
A shadow G,lleth ON his thou -htfu brow 80
For "home, sweet home, hath lost its dearest charm
To him, Of love she cannot whisper now,
lie cannot fold her In his sheltcrng arm
It's plst-turn from that lonely, narrow grave
She Is not there-her spirit scared above,
| To that bright city, where pure waters wave
Where music echoes through sweet haunts OF love!
