How sweet are the speakings Of Hope to the soul
In every varying scene
When youths brightest pleasures over us roll
When age steals upon us or sorrows controE
In us, is her influence seen
She paints in the heart Of the guileless youth.
Scenes of beauty. tho never revealed,
She sheds in his soul the glimpses of truth,
And whispers them to him in pitying ruth
Tho dark be the doom for him sealed
Like the mirage she points to scenes far beyond.
Where joys shine alone that are proved
Where affections returned. where friendship is found
Where the glad heart is with happiness crown'd,
Where all are loving and loved
Her step is like the soft trippings of spring
Giving birth to the lilly and rose.
The ivys Of joy around her form cling
And beautiful odors to man will she bring
Her loneliness viii she disclose.
She speaks; and the dying awaken to life
And sparkle their lusterless eyes,
She gilds cen the sorrow with which earth is rife
And arms us with weapons for deadliest strife
And bushes our sOrrowing sighs
She sings; and her songs fall on the dull ear
Of the captive bound down by despair
Imaginings of beauty through their reannts annear
To drive from their cheeks the cankering tear
As floats to their souls her soft air.
Her whisperings are heard in the sorrowing heart
When Life with its cares becomes cold
And she wipes the damp dews with magical art
And pours out balm for every smart
As she gives new life to the old.
When weary and worn with conflict and woe,
The soul would fain seek for repose
she spreads out couch where soft streamets will flow
Where flowers perennial in beauty will grow
Where the beaming of happiness glows.
When Affections and sorrows over us rage
And misery seems but our DOOM
When with dsappontments we're forced to engage
Her presence will oft every sorrow assuage
Her smiles will our pathway illune
When joys that hovered around us are gone
And like summerbirds friends from ms fy
Still, still does she speak in symphonious tone
Whisp ring that near friendship has grown
friendship that never will die
She waits at the couch where sickness and pain
Hauntingly long Seem to stay
She points us to life, and bids us again.
Look upward and onward, and thus her sweet strain
Seems to drive those dark terrors away
And as by the BED Of i he he Christian she stands
When his life is fast sinking apace,
Ills brow with the zephyrs of Heaven she fans,
ana TO Godward she raises his powerless hands,
And breathes in his heart words of Grace
Oh! It's only there her full power is felt
When his life is fast ebbing away
When the friends of his love-with whom he has dvet
BY whom with meek heart-he often has knelt
In humble reliance to pray,
Stand round him. while tears will gush from his eyes,
Yet still does she whisper Gods word
To bid them the pang of his suffering despise,
And hush in their souls their disconsolate sigbs
For they're blessed who die in the Lordm

MOTHERS S GRAvE.-How still it is.
The wind frills up the long grass, and
rustles through the great swaying willow
under which | am sitting, just as softly
as that other breeze came up through the
years that lie in the shadows of the past,
and stirs my heart with the old memories
it brings upon its wings.
Twelve years ago | sat here just as
do now. | am greatly changed, but all
around me is the same; the far off hills,
with their blue misty tops, are swathed
in folds of white clouds the green mead
ows, with the country sunshine flashing
like sweet thoughts all about them and
nearer, the gray stones, and the cold wa
ter splashing down softly on the white
pebbles. l remember it all.
Mother !'-I need not whisper the
name so low, for there are none to hear
me but the birds in the tops of the great
willow, and it will not disturb her slum-
Der. No, no, though | sit here with one
arm wrapped closely around the grave,
where the tears of my boyhood dropped
upon her bosom I know she will not
awaken.
remember it as though it had happen
ed this morning-how her cool, soft fin
gers used to drop like snow-fakes on nv
hair, and her lips murmur sweet blessings
over me with every nightfall. O, am a
rich man now The dews of night fall
on broad acres, and the spray of the Pa
cifc washes this moment the keels of nv
proud ships; but I would give many a
goodly acre, many a treasure that sleeps
deep In the holds, to lie down one night
under the old garret rafters, with that
sweet seraph face bending over me, with
is prayerful kiss, just as it used to do.
Mother mother the daisies of a score
of summers have bloomed and fallen above
your grave, but your memory lives deep
and sacred in the heart of your boy still !;
the memory of your prayers and counsel
have been with him in the long way his
feet have trodden, and he has cause to
thank you for this nowl
Look over the shining 5astions, sainted
mother; see me as | lie here, with my

THE PLUMBER IN DELHI.-A letter
from soldier of the 9th Carbiniers saws:
9 For description of the riches of Dsl-

shawls, lnlaid with gold, bodices covered
with gold, bars of gold, beds of silk and
down, such as no nobleman's house in
England could produce-you would see
Sinks carrying out of Delhi the first day,
as If they were almost nothing, shawl,
which In England would fetch 1907, they
are selling at four rupees; and you may
depend our fellows were not behind them.
1t is supposed the Rifles will go to Eng
land with upwards of 1,000l each, though
Gen. Wilson has issued an order that
the prizes shall be all put together and di-
vlded. Most of our men are worth up
wards of 100 rupees.
