THE INFANT IN HEAVEN.
BY WILLIAM II. HALcoABE.

Where Death, in yon deserted ground,
His general harvest keeIs,
Beside small and vertiant mound,
A lonely Mother weops.
Upon the glittering turf she sits,
Like one in mournful dreams,
The trusting bird around her fits,
SO mctionless she seems.
In attitude Of one whose mind
Implores a word of cheer,
Who cen unto the whispering wind
Inclines an anxious ear.
She sees By more than fancy's light
The pale, cold face below,
Whose infant roses we're so bright
A few sad days ago.
Meanwhile, beyond the curtaining skies
The Lost One finds his rest,
And leans, with love-illImined eyes,
Upon an angels breast.
Whilst angel-sisters deck his brow
With their immortal flowers,
And lulling music whispers low
Through the celestial bowers.
A nursing Of the heavens, he lives
In heavens eternal bloom;
But natures holy tie survives
The passage OF the tomb:
For list. what does the loving breeze
Unto the mourner speak,
And see. a sunbeam through the trees
Hath kissed the mourner's cheek.
o, weeping mother. couldst thou read
The symbols round thee given,
Thy gladdened heart would surely hee
These messages from heaven.

"HONEST OLD ABE"

CoNciDExcE.-In n work called the
Lives of the Presidents" in a table
of the periods in which they were
born and went out of Office: John
Adams. born 1875, retired 1s09,-
James Madison. born 1151, retired
1917. James Monroe, born 1859. re-
tired 1925. j. Quincy Adams. born
1867, retired 1890"
Now, it will be seen by this, that
Jefferson was born just eight yea rs
after his predecessor Adams; Madison
eight years after his predecessor jeff
erson; Monroe eight years after Mad
ison, and John Quincy Adams eight
years after Monroe. Another curious
fact to be observed is. that Adams
was just sixty six years old when he
retired; Jefferson was sixty-six: Mad
ison was sixty-six: Monroe sixty-six;
and John Quincy Adams. had he been
elected to second term. would have
been sixty-six. Adams. jefferson. and
Monroe, all died on the ith of July.
