POETRY.

Written for The Irish Republic
The Death of Norma.
Weep for Norma, harp of mourning;
Around her tomb the flowers are dropping.
Why should they bloom when she, the fairest
Flower of all. is cold and faded ?-OssIAN
Sweet Norma dropped when the leaves were falling
Dropped and dropped with the dying flowers;
Her spirit heard great Nature calling
The soul of bloom from this world of ours
And sympathetic up, crying,
"Voice of my master, obey
And from her smiling lips, up-fyng,
Passed with blossom and bloom away
My own sweet love- when the flowers are dying,
And the red moss pales on the gray old rocks;
When the wind-torn clouds wildly flying
Over the fields in ragged aocks;
When the yellow woods rudey shaken,
And srew the earth with showers of grief
Let the love of our youth in your bosom waken
For her who passed with the flower and leaf"
Oh, not when the woodlands shed their glory,
And the wild sea shakes his foamy locks
And Nature writes her olden story
Of transientness on the fields and rocks;
When signing winds Ger souls come sweeping,
Toning them down to minor key;
Not then alone shall Love be keeping
His vestal flame alight for thee
When the whte-robed Earth from her icy slumbers
Wakes, all smiles at the pleasant calls
OF the gladstone birds trilling out their numbers
In the green boughs the ivyed walls
The thought of thee like wave of sorrow,
Will sadden the joyous face of Spring;
For thine is the night that knows morrow
The woodlands where no wild birds sing.
And when the Spring, like blushing maiden,
Bursts into blossom from the bud,
And Summer comes, all RANT, laden
With the full-blown bloom of womanhood,
The thought of thee shall float thro' the vernal
Days, like far-off funeral chime
But thine was that beauty, SO supernal,
That never flowers in the lower cline
When the snow fakes dart, on silent pinons,
Hither and thither in search of rest
Like white-pumed birds from Deaths dominions,
And nestle at last in the Earths warm breast
When the holly glistens beneath the rafer,
And yule logs blaze on the Christmas hearth,
Thy name shall seal the lips of laughter,
Thy looks rebuke our household mirth
We sit and list to the bright streams flowing
And think of thy laughter and pleasant words;
We see thine eyes in the high stars glowing;
Thy songs sung by the woodland birds
And all that blooms and all that blossoms,
All that brighten the earth sea,
Come to the hearts in our aching bosoms
With sweet remembrances of thee
When the evening airs are slowly swinging
Incense from the censor flowers,
Our thoughts, like white-winged doves, go wlnglng
Upwards thro' all the silent hours,
Tracking thy pathway paved with splendor,
Lit with stars, and watched by Love;
With thy bright spirit SO grandly tender,
Smiling upon us from above.

The Unseen Shore,

The mists of death hang low upon lifes sea:
The unseen shore ~
Beyond the darkness rises silently
For everrmore;
The golden city flashes from the strand.
But mortal eye sees not the distant land.
Unnumbered prows are turned toward that far
But never yet
Returning voyager with struggling oar,
Or canvass set,
Hath brought US tidings from the land afar.
Whose gorgeous light is not of sun or star.
But there are voices in that unseen land,
Which we have heard,
Ut loved ones standing with us hand in hand
With smile and word f
Ihat klndled here our hearts with frien Isbip,s
GLOW,
And breathed on us their music sweet and low.
And there are footsteps on the golden street,
Made sacred rhythm, gliding soft and sweet
Or sad and slow,
Along the paths we trod by hearth and home.
But strangely ceased and left us lone to roam.
And there our souls that thrill with love etern,
Who look on Him
For whom the stars in endless lustre burn;
Where seraphim
delighted bask around the throne of light,
In ceaseless wonder at the infinite
We knew them here, and wept with them and
smiled
Our life was one;
We met and parted, still of each other beguil-
ed; ~
Their work is done
And they are resting in the morning land,
And we are toiling yet with heart and hand.
We group them oft in visions of the soul,
A joyous band
As on the peaceful hills of light they stroll
In that fair land;
Or wander ON the shore with loving gaze,
To watch the corners from the dark sea haze.
Speed on, my bark. lfe's stormy sea across,
The mists will rise;
And every pain and tear and earthly loss
In strange surprise
Shall vanish, when the unseen shore shall greet
Ihlne eye, and thou shalt touch the golden
street.

Cheerful Pietv.

Cheerfulness, that compound of many excel
lencies, comparable unto ''the powders of the
merchant, may scarcely be claimed to be called
virtue; but it is the friend and helper of all
good graces, and the absence of it is certainly a
vice. If cheerfulness be not health, assnredlv
melancholy is disease. Practically. cbeerfnlne:s
occupies very high position, and without #
the Christian laborer is destitute of very con-
siderable element of strength. Cheerfulness
sharpens the edge and removes the rust from
the mind. A joyous heart supplies oil to our
inward machinery, and makes the whole of our
powers work with ease and suficlency hence IL
is of the most importance that we maintain a con-
tented, cheerful, genial disposition. The longer
| am engaged in my Master service, the more
am confident that the JOY of the Lord is and
must be our strength, and that discomfort and
moroseness are fatal usefulness. With all NV
heart would say to my fellow servants, IRE
joice in the Lord always not only for your own
sakes, but for the sake of the work which is so
dear to you. Whoever may advocate dreary
dullness, | cannot and dare not do otherwise
than impeach it as an enemy of religion

Till your memories sting you-sighing,

Dry your tears now :-angel faces
Bend above the hallowed places
Seek the nameless dead, and bear them
Home to tombs their hands prepare them:
Friend, compatriot, comrade, brother
And your boys among them, mother!
Widow wife, whose heart is breaking
Slowly, surely with its aching:
Moaning on your tear-stained pillow
Were his grave meath the willow
In our church h-yard-kneeling by it,

Henceforth calm your heartache: tender,
Loving woman-(God defend herD
Plants the willow-rears the column,
And with the sanity rites and solemn,
Go and pray beside the sleeper!
Maiden, with your lids dropt slowly
Over eyes downcast and holy,
Hiding grief that none discover,
For the far-off buried lover
Wailing DER that spot so lonely,
"Oh, to kiss and clasp it only r"-
Be your voiceless sorrow softened
Think of him no more uncoffined:
Not cedarn copse serener,-
Not tended turf that's greener-
Not mossier mound than this is

the Radical steamboat grounded upon negro
