To Miss
call on thee by many potent SPELL
By all the visions of the lonely past
And by our hopes of joy that dropped and fell
Like flowers that break beneath the sudden blast
By morning light and by the sunset ray
BY earth and air, and hollow sounding sea,
By the smooth river and the fountain gay
Remember me.
By springs first whisper in the balny air
And by the glory of the summers skies,
BY the clear moonlight, by the sailing cloud,
And by the shadow of the waving tree
by the young blossoms meath the dew droped bowet
Remember me.
BY the soft warblin@ of the woodland birds,
And by the melody of womans song,
And by the murnur of the insect throng,
By loves low tone, and friendships gentle tone
By ali that makes thy spirit most rejoice,
Remember me.
By the dark shadow of the present time,
And by futurity's uncertain light,
By all thy thoughts OF Heavenly truth sublime,
And by the sorrows of deaths lonely night,
By vanished joys that once were dear to thee,
Oh! say thou'lt remember me.

The FoP AND THE DocroR.-Twenty years
ago farmers barn in the vicinity of Worcester,
Mass, was struck by lightning and burned to
the ground. Many of the citizens had gone to
the fire, when fop, well strapped and dickied.

ebrated DR.. G---n and accosted him in this
wise: Can you-ah tell me doctor, how far
they have succeeded in extinguishng the Con-

to him saying-"Take these sir, and 60 to bed,
and if you do not feel better in the morning,

FORGET ME NOT.
There is flower. a lonely flower,
Tinged deep with faiths unchanging hue,
Pure as the ether in its hour
OF lovelincss and sercnest blue.
The streamlet's gentle side it seeks,
The silent fount, the shaded grot,
And sweetly to the heart it speaks
Forget me not! Forget me not
Mild as the azure of thine eyes,
Soft as the halo beam above,
In tender whispers still it sighs-
Forget me not, my life-my love.
There where thy last steps turned away
Wet eyes shall watch the sacred spot
And this sweet flower be heard to SD y
Forget? All! no, ferget me not.
Yet deep its azure leaves within
Is seen the bighting hue of care,
And what that sweet grief has been
The dropping stem may well declare:
The dew drops on its leaves are tears
That asks, cam SO soon forgot 90
Repeating still, amidst their fears,
My life,-nly love! forget me not.
