Another morn has rolled away:
Another sun declined afar
Another night succeeded day,
And still another blazing star
Been trimm'd, and set in azure sky,
TO light the angels passing by;
And yet, no tidings from the land;
No herald bright from o'er the sea,
Or welcome message from the hand
OF Love has ever come to me,
Since on that golden summers day,
], trusting, gave my heart away.
Oh sudden JOY and blissful dream:
OH charming hour, and story true,
How very near to me you seem,
And yet, art lost to earthly view
AS angel bright, or vision fair,
While homeward winging through the airl
Alas the loved ones far away,
And naught on earth can solace bring:
Alone, alone, all night, all day,
With bleeding heart and broken wing,
As wounded bird, turn to fly,
But find it sweeter far-to die.
In shadow-land my soul doth dwell,
Where blighted Hope lies down to dream,
And family whispers, "AH is ,oell,"
As swiftly down the troubled stream
The life-bark glides to mystic shore
For rest; and UOydge heRce-nO more.

ANOTHER EXPLOSION Yesterday afternoon,
about two O'Clock, an explosion took place at
Hayes a Ellis lumber yard and steam saw mill,
No. 1852 FIanktord avenue. The explosion was
caused by an accumulation OF gas In the furnace
under the boilers. II appears that quantity of
shaVings had been placed IN the furnace by the
fireman, who was firing up preparatory to start
ing the engine, which caused the gas to accu-
mulate to such an extent that the doors OF the
furnaces few open, and the gas rushed out
causing the walls round the boilers, about six
feet high, to be thrown down. The supports
are also knocked from under the boilers, ani 1t
Will be necessary to reset the boilers before they
can be used. At the time of the disaster a.
number OF the workmen were standing 10 front
of the boilers. two of Whom-James Stew the
engineer and Samuel Hart, q work man-were
slightly scorched in their backs. The boilers
are tide by SIDE and are each twenty-five horse
power, and have been In use about fourteen
years. They were examined about Christmas,
and are considered sound, although before
being again used they win be thoroughly over
hauled. 1t is thought that the damages will be
repaired In o few days, and that but little delay
in consequence Will be caused by the accident
