may sometimes be near us or wait to
welcome us Oh the borders of the spirit

A little girlin q family Of my acquain.

her mother at an age too early to fix the
loving features in her remembrance.-.
She was as frail as she was beautiful !;
and as the bud of heart unfolded, it
seemed as if won by that mothers inau-
ence to turn instinctively heavenward.
The sweet, conscientious and prayer
loving child was the cherished one of
the bereaved family. But she faded
away early. She would lie upon the
lap of her friend, who took o mothers
kind care Of her, and winding one vast
ed arm about her neck, would say, "Now
tell me about my mamma p And when
the oft-told tale had been repeated, she
would ask softly, "take me into the par:
FLOR; I want to see my mamma. = The
request was never refused, and the af,
fectionate child would lie for hours, con-
teutedly gazing On her mothers portrait

heaved faintly-spasmodically. "Do

her ear the voice that was dearest; but
it awoke no answer. All at once q
