Little Graves.

Sacred places for pure thoughts and
holy meditations, says a writer, are the
little graves in the churchyard. They
are the repositories of the mothers
sweetest joy, half unfolded buds of IN
nocent humanity nipped by the first
frost of time, ere yet canker worm
of corruption has nestled among its
embryopetals. Callous, indeed, must be
the heart of him who can stand by a
little grave side and not have the holi-
est emotions of the soul awakened to
thoughts of purity and joy which be-
long only to God and heaven, for the
mute preacher at his feet tells of life
begun and ended without stain, and
surely if this be vouchsafed to mortali-
ty, how much purer and holier must be
the spiritual land enlightened by the
sun of infinite goodness, whence ema-
mated the soul of that brief sojourner
among us? How swells the heart
of the parent with mournful Joy while
standing by the earth-bed of his lost
little ones? Mournful, because sweet
treasure has been taken away-joyful,
because that precious jewel glitters in
the diadem of the redeemer.
