OVER THE RIVER.

OVER the river they bcclon 10 me,
Loved ones whovc crossed to the further side;
The glcam OF their snowy robes soc,
But their voices are lost in the dashlng tide.
There's one with rlnglcts Of sunny gold,
And eyes the reflection of Heavens own blue
lie crossed in the twilight. gray and cold,
And the pao mist hid him from mortal view;
We saw not the angels who met him there
The patcs of the city we could not sec
Over the river. over the river,
My brother stands waiting to welcome mo.
over the river the boatman pale
Carried nnother-the household pct
Her brown curs waved In the gentle gallo
Darling Minnie! see her yet.
She crossed on her bosom her dmplcd hands,
And fearlcssly entered the phantom bark;
We felt II glide from the silver sands,
And all our sunshine grow strangely dark.
We know she Is safe on the further Side
Where nil the ransomcd angels be-
Over the river, the mystic river,
My chlldhoods idol Is waiting for mo.
For mono return from those quiet shores,
Who cross with the boatman cold and pale;
We hear the dip of the golden oars,
And catch glcam of the snowy sail,
And 10 they have passed from our ycarnng hearts
Thsy cross the stream, and gone for aye
We may not sundcr the veil apart
That hides from vision the gates of day
We only know that their barss
May sail with us DER Lifc's stormy sea;
Yet somewhere, know, on the unseen shore,
They watch, and bcclson, and wait for mo.
And sit and think, when the sunsets gold

I shall one day stand by the water cold,
And list for the sound Of the boatman's oar;

SUGGESTIVE TEXT.-In New Jersey
was lately located preacher, whose
modesty never deferred him from urging
upon his congregation liberal subscrip-
tions of money for all church and be-
nevolent purposes. In his private So
licitatiOns he one day met good, but
eccentric member, who for long time
steadfastly refused his aid TO an object
the preacher was solicitous to secure.
At last importantly triumphed condi-
tionally. He agreed to contribute on
condition of being allowed to choose the
text from which the preacher's funeral
sermon should be preached. The mat
ter being thus settled, the minister
wanted to know what the text was.
His friend answered; ".ARd The Geggar

The Proprietors in presenting TO the public the
above incompatible Bitters, assure them thai but
for sense Of gratitude the generous donor OF the
recipe and in response to the importanities OF the
hosts OF southern friends who have experienced
their efficacy they would have hcsitatad before
placing an article Of such sterling merit On mar
ket flooded with deleterious compounds belling the
name Of Stomach Bitters. Our Senior however,
having at the solicitation of those friends expended
on the manufacture OF the GREY JACKER BIT
TIERS the experience acquired in half a lifetime
devoted TO the preparation of Tonic Digestive Slim
ulauts, and discovered their immense superiority
over all other Stomach Bitters. have unhesita-
tingy added these 10 the list OF articles already pre-
pared at our establishments and so well known and
largely patronized by the community at large
BARNETT & LION take this seasonable oppor
tunity of thanking their numerous friends for the
immense increase in their business during the year,
and inform them that although the manufacture Of
the GREY JACKET BITTERs must necessarily
cause an additional tax their energies yet from
large additions in the improvements made and
making in the manufacturing department Of the
establishment their orders will be illed promptly
and they hope as satisfactorily as usual
