A TRIBUTE.

We met MS strangers Yesterday,
The sun was smiling soft and warm.
But in the cast rising cloud
Foretold the coming Of storm;
To-day the sky Is dark with gloom,
While slowly falls the winter rain,
Like music ON pearly she'll,
Thrilling the heart with passions pain.
Friends Of an houri Oh, this is life,
So far beneath my spirits dreams,
That only one brief stormy hour
Can bathe our souls in friendships strcamt
In after years shall we forget
This wayside meeting passed away,
Or will some sad aud sweet regret
Bring back the vision of to-dayS
We part tomorrow May the sun
CLEAN brightly in tranquil sky,
Aud cast halo round the hour, -
So that remembrance cannot die.
May strains Of every pleasant song
That kindred voices love to sing,
Cluster rouui this day Of storm,
And bind it meath loves silvery wing.

not able to converse. lie was very weak
and feeble, having no control over himself.
He (Mr. Baker, took hold Of his limbs. On
letting them go thcy would fall like those Of

come in court one day, and the exertion and
mental excitement would throw him back, which
would cause another adjournment. He thought
with a few days' rest he would gain strength
and the trial could proceed. wiu was very
anxious that the trial should go on, and had 30

and showed him every attention. The accused
had requested that his wife should be with him,
but the officer In command Of the prison had no
authority to grant the permit The request had
been ssu, to tho proper officers.
