BY OLIVER WENDELL HoLsRs.

All. here 1t is, the sliding rail,
That marks the old remembered spot
The gap that struck our schooi-boy trail
The crooked path across the lot.
II left the road by school and church,
A penciled shadow, nothing more,
That parted from the silver birch,
And ended at the farm house door.
No line or compass traced it's plan,
With frequent bends to leit OF right,
In aimless, hayward curves II ran,
But always kept the door in sight.
The gsbled porch, with woodbine green
The broken mill-stoRe at the sill
Though many rood might stretch between
The truant child could see them still,
No rocks across the pathway lie, .-+
No fallen trunk is DER IL thrown
And yet 1t winds, we know not why, "
And turns as If for tree or stone, r
Perhaps some lover trod the way,
With shaking knees and quaking heart,
And 30 1t often runs astray, #tl-
With sinuous sweep or sudden start.
Or one, perchance with clouded brain,
rIOih eOiuU uiuOiS DhhloCt AtciSu-
And since, our devious steps maintain
His track across the trodden field.
Nay, deem not thus-no earth.born will
Could ever trace faultless line;
Our truest steps are human still,
To walk answering were divine!
Trqants nom love, we dream of wrath;
Or rather let us trust the mOrel
Through all the wanderings of the path,
We still can see our Fathers door.

ConsRxoRArrvr NorIcs.-The recent
death at Brandon Of Julius Fl. White
has cast . deep shade OF gloom over a
whole community. In this event we
recoenize one Of those affective dlspen-
sations so mysterious In its visitation,
and SO utterly insxplicable in its sur,
roundiDgs. A young man of fine phys.
icsl Developments genial and lovsble
In his nature-cultivsted and refined in
his taste-and educated and accom-.
plished in his new sphere OF practical
industry, he was believed In and trusted
by all that knew him. We cannot I'M
derstand why one SO young, so uniyer-
sally beloved, and whose future gave
such itch promise Of golden frultage
should be so suddenly snatchrd away,
We can only bow submissively, and &C,
cept the chastisement as for our good.
