SOONER Or LATER.
BY HARRIET e. PRESCOTT,

Sooner or lator the storms shall beat
Over nv slumber from head 10 feet
Sooner or later the winds shall rave
In the long green grass above my grave.
/ shall not heed them where lie,
Nothing their sound shall signify,
Nothing the headstone's fret rain.
Nothing to me the dark days pain.
Sooner or later the SUI shall shine
Tenderly on that mound of mine
Sooner or later, in summer air,
Clover and violet blossom there.
/ shall not feel in that deep-laid rest,
The sheeted light fall over my breast,
Nor ever note in those hidden hours
The fragrance of those tossing flowers.
Sooner or later the stainless SHOWS
Shall add their hush to my mute repose
Sooner or later shall slant aud shift,
Aud heap my bed with their dazzling drift.
Chill though that frozen pail shall seem,
Its touch no colder can make the dream
That recks not the sweet and sacred dread
Shrouding the ciIy of the dead.
Sooner or later the bee shall come
And fill The noon with his golden hum
Sooner or later on half-poised wing
The blue-bird's MARBLE about me RUG
Ring and chirrup and whistle with glee---
Nothing his music means TO me
None of these beautiful things shall know
How soundly their lover sleeps below.
Sooner or later, far ont in the night.
The stars shall over me wing their flight:
Sooner or later my darkling dews
Catch the white spark in their silent ooze.
Never a ray shall part the gloom
That wraps me round in the kindly tomb
Peace shall be perfect for lip and brow,
Sooner or lster-oh, why not now

HARPER's PUBLICATIONS. We call
attention to the Prospectus in to-day's
paper of HARPER's WEEKLY and MAGA
ZINE. The Magazine needs no eulogy.
1t is unrivnIed in its department, and it
is hardly too much TO say, that it is
" known and read of all men,"
The Weekly is a large pictorial paper,
embellished with pictures of current
events and designs illustrative Of the pc
litical situation, which are alone worth
moro than the subscription price, while
its literary matter is very interesting, and
its editorials on current topics are among
tie ablest written. 1t is better than q
school master in any family, and we
would urge our resders to send for il, for
it IS certain to satisfy them.

Death of Senator Wright.

in feeble health, and his death was not

MIR. Wright was native of Clarks-
vile, Roakland County, New York, but
his family removed to New Jersey while
he was young; lie was resident of
that state during the greater part of his
life. He became early connected with
the railroad interest, and was largely
concerned in the legislation in behalf of
the Camden and Amboy kailroad.
Mr.. Wright also engaged in politics,
as a member of the Wing party. In
1843 he became an Independent candidate
for Congress, and was elected over,

The La Crosse and Milwaukee
Land Grant Railroad.

Mr.. EDITOR Permit me to state
through the columns of your paper, for
the information of the public, that from
personal examination Of the plats,
maps and diagrams on 9th Nov. inst, in
the Land Office at Falls OF st. Croix,
Wisconsin, that the terminus of said
Land Grant Road, as surveyed from
Madison or Columbus, via Portage City
to Lake st. Croix, between townships
% and 81 which was located at Prescott
has not been repealed, altered, revoked
or in any manner changed or affected by
any subsequent orders or legislation.
1t is true that a charter and grant of
land have been obtained for Rsilroad
from Tomah to Hudson, running gener-
ally parallel with and crossing the old
survey in two places, but if our road is
built that one never will be, and they
could have no lands, rs it is so near the
first Land Grant Road that it will absorb
all the lands Let this matter be looked
after properly aud we will have our road
all right in due time.
