Died Yesterday.
DY VIOLET.

How often in common conversation
do we hear those few but expressive
words, " Died Yesterday ? " We
scarcely ever read a newspaper or jour.
nal without seeing them we merely
glance at them, and never think of the
dreadful import which is conveyed thro'
them to the disconsolate ones who have
lost somo dear and cherished friend.
To the bereaved parents this phrase
is replete with silent grief A few days
ago their house Was scene of JOY and
gladness, but grim visitor entered and
snatched one of the loved ones away
and now all is mourning and grief.
To the lone husband or wife, what
unutterable anguish do they not rco.n
Tho huur uI ueaJn with all Its stiff.
grief; the last testimonies of expiring
love }; the feeble pressure of the hand
the faint, falterlng accents struggling
even in death, to give one more assua
rance of affection.
Died yesterday" ah, yes, poor or
phan, you are truly bereft, never again
will your mother smile on you, no more
will you hear her gentle voice, for she
has left this vale of tears, and joined
your father in the land of bliss. Never
perhaps have you known that fathers
care, but mothers never failing love
amply compensated fer the loss. Your
heart is nearly broken, the only hope
that sustains you, is a blessed reunion
in Heaven. Life without the hope of
eternity is no boon, for it is wrenched
from the young bride in her early joy,
and snatched from youth and beauty,
when everything locks gag aud smil-
ing.
Indeed there is scarcely one houses
hold where the shadow of death has not
fallen, no familiar place from which we
do not miss some friend. If thou art a
child, and hast ever added furrow to
the silyeied brow of an affectionare pa
rent, if thou art a husband, and hast
ever caused the fond bosom, that ven-
tured its whole happiness into thy keep
ing, to doubt the Kindness and truth, if
thou art friend, aud hast ever wronged
| the heart that confded in thee, then be
sure that every unkind look, and un-
generous action will come thronging
back upon thy memory, causing thee
many bitter unavailing tear.
We should always bear in MUD, that
sooner or later will also bo said of US,
Died yesterday" Happy then for US
if we led virtuous life, so that we do
not fear death, insomu.h as it paves the
way to a bright and immortal country,
where we viii be united to the loved
ones, whose loss VIC now deeply mourn.

THE VIOLET OF THE VALLEY.
by L. =, BARRY.

The zephyrs breath sweeps lightly by.
And swells in gentle strength amain,
Breathos softly Ger the roses nigh
But stirs the daisies of the plain
In pity for the lily's bell,
1t wraps her in Q dreamy SPELL
Round By the hillside, in the shade,
Young yernal blossoms spring to life
4 violet in a groom arcade
Is seen to mingle n the strife;
Eor. from it's glitte4iug virgin cap,
Sweet zcphyrs wait It's fragrance up.
Yelled like an Oriental bride
Enshrined within its bower Of poace--
Mirrored athvart the brook beside,
1t bids the fowerets' murmur cease
Lily, and rose, and daiay pale,
Obey the violet Of the vllo.
Sweet type oflovo-of modest worth
What chaplet shall wo weave for thee ?
The fairest flower that stars the earth
Should grace the violet of the lea
Then, choose am6ag Queen Flora's train,
The brightest bud tdGt gems The plain.
Tekc mignonctte and lily fair,
The eglantino and daisy white;
Gull olcanders, flushing there,
And snowdrops, flashing in the light
Choose ell, and bid the loveliost hail!
Thyself queen regent Of the vail.

father, az if she had answered him, as,
indeed, she had and the GIRL tremb-

affair, maam, said Mr.. Richmond.
I--no-that is, I only gasped the
little woman ; and, hearing Lucilla
coming, she sank into a chair, blaming
herself dreadfully for not having been
present at her daughters mnsic lessons
during the past year.

to Miss Lucilla for twelve months, aud
who had taken the liberty to fall in

was the daughter of one of the richest
men in Yorkshire.
