years.
Inflated sheet, 60 spread this news,
Thy onward mission is distress,
To shock the nerves as friends peruse,
And blight the hearts that would caress.
Precocious youth, thy sun is set,
Thy worth had plea to let thee live;
But all of earth is bound in fate
Great Natures law grants no reprievs.
L.
On the 18th of January, 1859, ELLEN, younges
daughter of G. w. and G. Webb, of Atalissa, Mus
catine county, Iowa, aged years and week.
Where art thou, loved one, tell mo where!
In no department do meet
That form, so beautiful and fair,
That was the first her ma to greet.
Thy sweettoned voice no more hear,
No more its accents soft and mild,
That fell as music on my ear,
And hours of pensiveness beguiled.
Where art thou, loved one, tell me where?
For no trace of thee can find;
Nought but this silvery lock of hair
Which late around thy neck entwined.
Thou wilt no more my coming heed,
No more wilt thou my call obey,
For lonely with the silent dead
Is laid thy Wondering, lifeless clay.
Thy happy soul, from sorrow free,
In Heaven hath found resting place,
Close by the throne of Deity,
To view without veil his face.
Thou hast escaped ten thousand Ills
Ten thousand thorns that hedge life's way,
Which lie concealed from human skill,
But pierce the heart from day to day.
Then silently I'll dry the tear
That sympathy for thee doth shed,
Nor think the stroke was too severe,
Since naught but mercy did the deed.
Oh, may my end be calm as thine
Without remorse-without regret
To Him my soul in peace resign,
Who paM.tor me stern Justices debt.
