BY WALTER FERGUSON
AMoTHER'S GIFT

Rem e mber, love, who gave thee this,
= When other days shall come;
When she who had thy earliest kiss,
Sleeps ir her narrow home,
Remember, love, twas a mother gave
The gift to one she'd die tc save.
That mother sought pledge Of love-
The holiest for her son;
Bnd from the gifts of God above
She chose goodly one,
She chose for be beloved boy
Ths scarce of light, and life and JOY.
Aud baae him keep the gift that when
The parting hour should come
Theymight have hopeto meet again.
10 an eternal home,
She said his faith in that should be
Sweet incense to her memory.
And should the scoffer, in his pride,
Laugh that fond faith TO scorn,
And bid him cast that pledge aside,
That he from youth had borne.
She bade him pause and ask his breast,
IL he or she, had loved him best
A parents blessing on her son
Goes with this holy thing;
The love that would retain the one
Must to the other cling.
Remember, 'tis no idle toy,
A mothers gif:-remember. boy.

Inc Cottage BY ihe Sea.

Childhood's days now pass before me
Forms aud scenes of long ago,
Like a dream th ey hover o'er me,
Calm and bright as evenings glow,
naxs that know no shade of sorrow,
= There my young heart pure and free
joyful hail'd each coming morrow
In the Cottage by the Sea.
Fancy sees the rose tree twining,
Round the old and rustic door,
And below, the white beach shining,
WhereI gatherd shells Of yore--
Hears my mothers gentle warning.
Assss took me on her knee;
And feel again life's morning,
In the Cottage by the Sea.
What fho.gh years have rolled above me,
q Though mid fairer scenes / roam,
Yet ne'er shall cease to love thee,
ChiIdhood's dear and happy home!
And when life's long day is closing,
Ola, how pleasant it would be;
On some faithful heart reposing
Ia the Cottage BY the Sea.
