Lifted Into the Light.
BY MRS. R. D. C. ROBBINS.

When John Williams joined Company
A. Forty fourth Regiment, and started
for the seat Of war, he left good bust
ness as first. class mechanic, comfort
able, happy home, his wife and four
young children. At the end of the
third year he was among the unknown
dead" His pay, of course, ceased. The
formalities necessary to secure 8 pen
sion, together with the prices reduced
his family in a short time, to extreme
poverty.
In December Of 1864 they had been
driven to occupy miserable garrett in
one of the poorest streets in New York,
and here Eddie, the eldest son, lad of
six years, sickened and died The sad
event took place upon one of the dark
est, stOrmiest nights of the winter, and
the mother, without fire, without light
and without food, watched his life ebb
away. The more touching, then, are the
words with which she Weakened her
eldest child Ruth, when the cold grey
dawn began to steal over the dead boy.
Ruth, Ruth, did you know our little
Eddie has gone into the light 2"
Unto the light !" The child started
from her troubled sleep to conscious
ness of what her mother meant. Eddie
was in heaven. And while the thought
was coming home to her, her
mother repeated in a voice which had in
1t almost tone of joy
"His home now is the city that has
no need Of the sun, neither of the moon,
to shine In it, for the glory of God doth
tighten it, and sthe Lamb is the light
thereof "
Not here, then, with this dim, strug-
Cling winter light-away beyond the
clouds and the storm Happy little
Eddie! And Ruth, rising, goes to the
bed upon which he lies, looking down
with solemn awe upon the emaciated
face, the sunken eye, the tight shut lips.
A vague, bewildering idea she has that
1t is, and yet 1t is not the sick, living
boy ; q dim, first knowledge of the dread
mystery of death.
Poverty has given years to this small
girl, and rudely jostling with this sor-
row comes to her the sharp necessity for
help. Yesterday, for the first time
through all their suffering, she had beg
ged and part of the pittance given her
yet remained, kept misery for this dread
event, which she, young as she was, saw
approaching.
Help, help! And with these words
ringing over and over in her heart, she
whispered to her mother, and long be-
fore the great city had stirred to its
daily round OF toll and pleasure, she
stole out into the keen morning air.
A police officer was passing the door
as she opened 1t, aud she laid her purple
hand gently on his arm.
'"Help, sir" she said Eddie is
| dead"

The hand that prints these accents here
Was never Clasped in thiae,
Nor has thy heart, with hope and fear,
Fer tremblCd back to mine.
And yet, from childhood's early years,
Some being like to thee,
Unseen amid my doubts and tears,
Hath sweetly smiled on me.
And oft in dreams I've twined the wreath
Above her eye of flame,
Then listened if come bird might breathe
The music of her name.
And oft have fondly sought to trace
Amid the fair and young,
The living type of this sweet face,
On 1ancy's mirror flung.
But in ts unresembled form
The shadow dwelt with me,
Till unperCeived, life-like and warm,
1t softly fell on thee
Then into substance passed the shade,
With charms still more divine,
As DER thy face its features played,
And lost themselves in thine.

The Finale of the Mexican FL
asCO.

The telegraph announces the APP
preaching close of the drama which has
been enacting in Mexico. The defeat
and death OF Miramon, the leader OF the
Imperial forces. A decisive battle has
been lost. Queritaro has fallen, and the
Liberal forces are In occupation OF the
city. Macmillan has secreted himself.
Thus closes in an ignominious manner
the scheme to establish the power OF the
Latin race by European aid on this con-
tinent. Thus is indicated 1.-THE wisdom
Of one of the great doctrines established
BY our fathers, without the loss by blood
or money on the part of the United
States, but by that irresistible tending
force in human affairs which can be no
more impeded than the upheavings of
the earthquake.
Macmillan has become fugitive and
wandering outcast, keeping out of the
way to save his life, in the coontry
where but short time since he sought
TO plant the throne OF an Emperor by
the interposition OF the aid OF European
powers, and can only escape through the
aid OF the American Government. This
is a sad illustration OF an Intellectual eff
fort to plant a monarchy as a menace to
the expansion, freedom and progress Of
this country. 1t Is perhaps unfortunate
that the long tragedy of war in Mexico
has not been marked by the death of
Macmillan, and furnish warning les
son to all kingly adventures who seek
to plant throne, that American shores
are uncongenial climate wherein to make
the attempt.
He was fit example of the tyranical
ideas of the feudal times Of old. We're
some of the Mexican leaders disposed Of
in similar way, no harm would come
TO the body polite of that country.
By this event the way is open to
Juarez, and he will! no doubt avail him
self of it to establish his power on firm
basis, and thus accomplish the result he
has long and faithfully labored to &C
complish. Through chequered and
eventful life, with much study combined
with natural talent and ability, he has
rises rapidly, step by step, to the hon
orable position of Chief Justice of Mexi-
co. 1t is provided by the constitution
of that country that when vacancies &C.
cur in the offices of President and Vice
President, the Chief Justice succeeds to
the Executive Office, and by this means
he came into power in the government
and the leadership of the Liberal forces,
which he has filled with a tenacity and
genius under the most forbidding cir
cumstances, and we are sure better day
has dawned for Mexico in the crowning
triumph which he has fairly won, and
that she will build upon the ruins of the
attempted monarchy government
which shall be stable and progressive.

in the daily performance of your duty,
you will know it ; and that is enough.
Take the whole course, take the jour
neys drift, and not any particular stage
This is a thousand times better than any
other method.
