AEtE IHB CHILDREN AT HOME.

Each day when the glow OF sunset
Fades IN the western SKY,
And the wee ones, tired of playing,
Go Tipping lightly by,
steal away from my husband
Asleep IN his easy chair,
Anu watch from the open doorway
IheT IHC6S neSn anu fAlT.
Alone in the dear old homestead
That once was full of lie,
Ringing with girlish laughter,
EcnOIng DOy ish strife,
We Two are waiting together;
And Oft, as the sh uOwS come,
Win tremulous voice he calls me,
1t Is night! are the children at home?"
.'YeS, love" l answer him gently.
"IhGy re all home long ago.
Ana sing, In my qutveTing treble,
y song SO soft anu low, az rEa &. b..
TIL the old mun drops TO slumber
With his head upon his hand,
And tell to my self the number
Home in IA better land.
Home where never q sorrow
snail aim their eyes with tears
WheTe the smile OF God Is on them
Through all the summer yeans!
Know !-yet my arms are empty,
That fOndly folded seven, !
And tue mother heart within me
Is almost starved for heaven.
Sometimes. in the dusk OF evening,
lOnly shut my eyes,
And Tie children are all about me,
- vi,iOn trUm the skies:
1he DHGes whose aim pied finR
Lost the way to my BREAST
And Tie beautiful ones, the angels,
Passed to the worship OF the blessed.
With never a cloud upon them,
see tnelr radiant broWs:
My boys that gave TO freedOm,- 81
AlIe red sword seSieI their vowsI
Ia - tangled Southern forest,
Twin brothers, bold aud b.LHe,
They fell; and the flag they dlcd Tor,
Thank God! floats over their grave.
a breath, and the vision is lifted
Away ON wings OF light,
And again we Two are tosetheT,
All alone in the night.
They tell me mis- mind is falling,
Bnt smile at Idle feafS; r.
He Is only back with tile children, 81
In the dear and peaceful years.
And still as the summer sunset
Fades away In the west,
And the wee ones, tired ofplaying,
Go LIOoping home to rest,
My husband calls from his corner,
Say, love! have the children Gomez"
And answer with eyes uplifted,
"fes. dear they are all at home !"

THE people of England and America
must inevitably become better and
better acquainted with each other
Steam and various other agencies are
contributing 10 that result. 1nternH-
tional intermarriages are becoming
more and more common, and nothing
certainly conduce 10 more thorough
knowledge of each others habits and
manners. a recent instance, of which
we see mention in an exchange, will
probably throw n flood of light on
American peCuliarities, in the eyes of
the benighted nations of Europe. A
young Englishman "of wealth and
culture" while making the tour of the
United States lately, fell in love with
one of the daughters of the SOil-in
fact one of the aborigines-an Omaha
sqIiaw, and married her. 1.-The next
day." says the history of the case, ''she
got drunk and turned sonIeersaults in
the street" The young Englishman
"of wealth and culture" is going
home to write book about Life and
Manners i'll America. We shall be
better understood hereafter
