THE MORNING LAND.

~
THE MORNING LAND.
The night will cast no shadow
Upon the morning land;
The dark clouds meier will gather
Above the golden strand.
And there the sound Of weeping
Shall never more be heard;
With sorrow and with signing
Our hearts no more be stirred.
CHORUS.
The morning land, the morning land,
How blessed twill be there to stand,
And greet the glance and clasp the hand
Ofthose who've gone before.
Ofthose who've gone before,
Gone to HeaEen's shining shore,
To the morning land, to the morning land,
Where We shall part no more.
We mourn earth's faded blossoms,
But there bright flowers will bloom,
Beyond the graves cold portal,
Beyond the silent tomb.
Farer than early Eden,
Faircr than aught below,
Will be that land of morning
The home TO which we 20.
CHoRUS-The morning land, &c.
Our days are swiftly gliding,
Fraught with both good and i'll;
But though iife's drausht seems bitter,
Wen trust the Giver still.
BY faith We will look forward,
Till Ioyfully we stand
Beside the loved and loving
In Gods own morning land.

A Rich VALLEY,

A correspondent Of the ST. Louis Re-
publican writes as follows in regard to
the Kansas valley:
Leaving the State line for the West,
we entered at once the fertile valley
of the Kansas river. For distance
of two hundred and thirty miles we
ran through the valley of the Kansas
and the Smoky Hill, every mile of
which was through lands inexhausti.
bly, rich in deep soil, which under or
dinary culture would yield the largest
returns to the hands of the husband
man. Apparently these valley lands
are as rich as the famous lands of the
American bottom. Like the latter,
the Kansas lands of which | speak are
level plain, fanked on the north and
south by beautiful sIoping hills, the en-
tire valley covered with luxuriant ver-
dure. 1t is through this valley, never
once forsaking it, that the Union Pa
cifc railroad runs for the distance l.
have named, encountering nowhere
any engineering difficulty, nor being
subjected to the expense of deep cuts
and fills. 1t seems as though nature
had designed the valley for the encour-
agement of those undertaking 60 initi-
ate the gigantic enterprise of spanning
,he continent with railroad

unpopular in Kentucky that, whenever
it is possible, we observe the accused

diers are leaving Kentucky daily by
hundreds, while their places are more
than filled by disfranchised rebels from
other States that were in rebellion.
