Kissing the flowers which grow in its path

Pocking the boats on its bosom broad,
As into the harbor they gladly run;

There are great hearts signing for honor and fame,

Making dark shadows that all men shln,
While the prisoners chained in their dreary cells,

Under the sun there are lovers, still
Dreaming the dream that can never grow old;
Treasuring tressess of wavy hair,
Brighter and dearer than wealth untold;
Seeing forever but one dear face
Hearing forever nc voice save one,
So dream the lovers. that same old dream,
Making heaven down under the sun
Little feet wearied before the time
Little hands folded upon the breast;

Close their eyes on the race all run.

Safe in the depths OF eternity.
But whether the flowers bloom over their graves,
Or the waves sing over the treasures won,
Their angels look out from the heavens above,
And watch those who love them down uuder the sur
There are pain and labor. and sin and woe,

the cycles of the time preceding even the ap.

that cur own period seems as yesterday when

fore it. Had we only the evidence OF the de.
p osits of rocks heaped above each other in re.
gular strata by the slow accumulation of ma
terials they alone would convince Us of the
long and slow maturing of Con ) work OF earth
but when we add to these the successive
populations OF whose life this world has been
the theatre, and whose remains are hidden in
the rocks into which the mud of sand or soil

them together, aud who have worked so busi.

the human race-if We consider all these re-
