A BEAUTY OF BoRNEo.-Mr. Spencer
St John thus describes the daughter of
the Datus' of Borneo:
She was the loveliest girl in Borneo.
l have never seen native surpass her
in figure or equal her gentle, expressive
countenanee. She appeared about Is
years Of age, and as she stood near, lean
ing against the door post in the most
graceful attitude, we had a perfect view
OF all her projections. Her dress was
slight indeed, consisting of nothing but
short petticoat reaching from her waist
little above her knees Her skin was
OF that clear brown which is almost the
perfection Of color in sunny cline and
as she was returning from bathing. her
hair, unbound, fell in great lnxnr;ance
over her shoulders. Her eyes were
black, not flashing, but rather contem-
piative, and her features were regular
even her nose was straight. So intent
was she in watching our movements. and
wondering at our novel mode of eati8g
with spoons and knives and forks, that
she unconsciously remained in her grace
full attitude for some time, but, suddenly
recollecting that she was not appearing
to the best advantage in her light cos.
tune, moved away to her room. and pres
emily came forth dressed in a silk Jacket
and new petticoat, with head necklaces
and gold ornaments. In our eyes she
did not look so interesting as before"

The fever pali hangs DER the land
From swamp and dark lagoon;
The chill fog creeps along the strand
And pales the risi Ig
The live oaks braid their aching boughs
With messy garlands drest, .tr
And darkly 'gainst 4 star-lit sky
The pine tree rears its crest.
The watch -frcs shine upon the shore,
Or near the pcket's post,
And bay nets CLEAN along the line
That guards our sleeping host.
".
But gloom hang heavy as the night
On every soldiers breast,
Fora Chief in silence sleeping,
A spirit gone 70 rest
For one who lies with folded arms,
And still, indicating heart,
Who glOried In LIES conflict,
And braYely bore his part.
Whose busy, thinking brain had planned .
o. Great deeds for days to come,
Whose sword hath fallen from his hand
Whose earnest lips are dumb.
To his bright homo beyond the skies
No battle ope'd the way,
lie bowed beneath the fever heat
As Gibbs the fading day.
VII.
Yet even as the sun goes down,
In glorious pOmp arrayed,
ms latest hours proved brightest,
Ills soul all undismayed.
For calmly the flowers close.
He yielded up his breath;
All honor to the steadfast heart
That triumphed cen in death.
Well might the watchers by his bed
Gaze ON their Chief with awe
For cen his pallid, changing face,
An angels glory wore.
As, pointing upward to the sky,
He lifts his falling ha ....
And breathes Christian legacy ..t-.
10 his loved household band Eo
wealth of faith, and hope and joy
More pregious far han gold:
Serve God with all sincerity,
In love each other hold
We tried to live Christian life,
Aud now my course is run
The conflict of that life is Ger,
It's battles fought and won.''
Then deem his death as noble
As on the stricken field
For ne fell in Gospel harness
soldier on his shield
The eyes that loved to read the stars
Have closed upon their light,
Ioopen, If our faith fail not,
Where Gods own stars are bright
His upright life, his soldier fame,
Are watchwOrds Of the past;
de won Ugh, heroic name,
Which shall his day outast.
