The loving kindness of God! What
a beautiful expression! 1t is not mere
good will, nor mere complaccnt friend
ship, nor the mere neighborly kindness
of human beings, although these are
of high and precious account. 1t is
the good will, the friendship, the kind
ness of love-of the love Of God, who
is love itself. We know something oi
the loving kindness Of father and moth
err; we have been gently tended and
nursed by this Kindness; or, parents
ourselves, we know full well the throb-
hing of parental affection. Deep, ear

many tender relations. We trust in II
fervently, and without fear. o! if there
were no human love in which we could
trust, what desolate place would this
world be But the loving kindness oi
God-of that great, incomprehensible
Being who fills the universe with his

The stranger on the Sill.
BY 7. B. REED.


Between broad fields of wheat and corn
Is the lovely home where was born; 's
The peach tree leans against the wall,
And the woodbine wanders over all,
There is the shaded doorway still s9s33 aia-
But strangers foot has crossed the sill. s.
There is the barn; and, as of yore,
can smell the hay from the open door,
And see the busy swallows throng,
And hear the peewee's mournful song:
But the stranger comes. o. painful proof
His sheayes are piled to the heated roof.
There is the orchard-the very trees
That knew my childhood so well to please,
Where | watched the shadowy moments run, .
Till my life imbibed mole of shade than sun;
The swing from the bough still sweeps the air,
But the strangers children are swinging there.
1t bubbles, the shadowy spring below,
With its bulrush brook where the hazels grow
Twas there found the calmus root,
And watched the minnows poise and shoot,
And heard the robin lave his wing
But the strangers bucket is at the spring.
o, ye who daily cross the sill,
Step lightly, for love it still;
And when you crowd the old barns caves,
Then think what countless harvest sheaves
Have passed within that scented door,
To gladden. eyes that are no more.

The dew was heavy upon the grass,
and thick haze, gathering in the at
mosphere, gradually veiled the face of
the moon that had shone so bright and
beautiful few hours before. Imme-
diately behind the house we have de-
scribed, was dense wood, in which a
clearing had been made few rods
around the mansion; but beyond all was

timber lay neglected, as if the work of
the .laborer had been suspended by the
approach Of the hostile parties, and
there were danger in pursuing his daily
employment, where instead ofthe sense
less trees, man aimed the fatal blow
against his fellow men. How different
the aspect Of that mansion and its en-
virons at the present time! The an
cient walls, then bare and cold, were
now adornedSith articles of taste and
luxury-the beautiful garden laid out
with care-the rich fruit hanging invit-
ing from the trees-the long arbor
shaded by its heavy canopy OF grapes
the fragrant honeysuckle creeping up
the pillars and enclosing, as in a frame
the old-fashioned windows richest
flowers springing mp, as if called by
fairy art into existence-and one, the
bright attendant spirit of the whole, a
beautiful creature, fair as poets vision
ever fancied, reigning as queen oi
beauty and love over this paradise
And then the room where the unhappy
wife of Harry Morgan was held cap
tive! How often has the author of this
rude sketch slept there! How otter
has she sat by the window on which
the lady's name and the date of hel
captivity are engravedwith diamond
and while the pale, cold moon sailed in
majesty over the heavens, formed con
