The graves Of our hsroes--ah gather bright
fowers,
And strew them in beauty around the cold
Aye, scatter their freshness Ger brave ones
departed,
Their sunshine will tighten deaths darkness
and gloom.
The graves of our heroes--my sad tears are
falling
For loved ones that slumber beneath the
green sod;
They sleep their last sleep, and we would not
disturb them;
They rest from their cares in the bosom of
God.
The stars nightly rolling keep watch Ger the
Brave martyrs who bled for their country and
home
Aad DER the broad earth there's no vigil SO
holy
Shine on, stars Of heaven, in your clear
vaulted domei
xourners around me--this world full Of sad.
would could give from such woe some
relief
But, stricken ones, know you, that whom the

grief
Mother, fond mother oh, cease thy sad weep
ingi
Distress Is but withring thy tear.moistened
cheek,
While thine eye has grown dim with the dew
that e'er fills it,
And life to thee now is all lonely and bleak.
Sister, who knesl'st at the grave of the lost
one,
And pray'st that the soul Of thy brother be
blest--
He hears thee and far from yon world comes

That tells thee his spirit hath flown to its rest.
He fought for his hearthstons and died for
his country,
While far from his home was his blood rsshly
spent;
But ere the fierce bsttle-din crowded around
him
His form to his God in devotion was bent.
Father, bowed down with the stern weight
of sorrow,
Bereft of thy boy in bis life's golden year,
Mourn not, for thou'st giv'n him to glory I'M
dying
His name will forever to memory be dear.
Bright patriot maiden, all hopeful and trust
ing,
Hard was it that death came thy young love
to crushi
Thy brave hero died when his banner was
conquered,
Yes, died ere he'd meet thee wih shame and its
blush!
when twilight is mantling the world with its
stiffness,
And sad hours of musing steal in with the
night,
think Of the loved ones in far distant regions,
And to their lone graves doth my soul take
its fight.

holy,
A glorious monument, fitting and meet7
Let the church be the tomb, and its prayers |

The Widow Of william Nv.

Few Royal personages have deceuded
to the tomb more worthy the respect and
love Of the English nation than the con,
sort Of the "Sailor King" the Queen
Dowager ADELAIDE, who died in Decem.
Der, I849. She was no less noble 10
quality than in station; her charities we're
extended throughout the kingdom, and
beyond il and at her death it was duly
said that "her deeds were her best cpl.
tspb." Her quiet and unosteutatious
character may be inferred from the fol-
lowing last directions for her funeral,
written 10 November. 1871:

that We are all alike before the throne Of
God; and / request, therefore, that my
