was Mr.. Hawley, alluded to at the com

after the events last recorded, as he met
the latter upon the street, on his way
to his place Of business.

Il was the morning Of life. The sun
had risen in all its beauty. A youth
wandered forth, full Of joy and hope
All nature seemed calm and plessaat.
Gay birds warblcd round him; beautiful
flowers grew at his feet. The light
Winds Of summer rustled past, seeming
to welcome him there. and cheering hiIa
on his way. He was happy in the pres.
eut alone, and happier in the auticipa-
ton Of the future
"What pleasant world is this" he
thought, as he imagined brighter days
to come, many joys yet untassed.
He wandered up the. broad road OF
life. He saw young and beautiful
girl. She too, wandered on the road Of
life. They met. Gentle love touched
their hearts, and she turned aud went
with him. They jonrncyed together,
nan and wife, 10 loving pleasure, while
yct the sun beamed mildly upon this
morning Of life.
They had almost forgotten tho pres
ent pleasure in thoughts of coming Joy.
The sun, bright beaming sun, has
gone down In the west Bright mora
ing has given place to evening. Day
has changed to night. The pleasant
summer has gone. The sweet flowers
arc whitening and the gay birds have
fown.
Two young and happy beings had
strayed forth in the fresh morning Of
life together. The dark hair, thss
waved so gently bad turned gray. The
rose tinted checks had turned pale.--
Hopes were swept away by the chill win.
ter wind, and the young had grown old.
They rest 10 silence, and ia the next
bright summer lovely flowers will grow
above their graves. Young hands will
gather thern--light hearts beat with
love and hope, as theirs did in the surp-
mer gone.
The tale is told, and tLey arc forgot
