trymen to the farm, where he entertained them
with liberal hospitality. The adventure reached
Marshal Davoust's ears. He laughed at Firmin's
strategcm, and presented him with discharge

THROUGH THE WORLD.

Some hearts go hungering through the world
And never find the love they seek;
Some lips with pride or scorn are curled
To hide the pain they may not speak.
The eve may flash, the mouth may smile,
The voice i'll gladdest music thrill,
And yet beneath them oil the while
The hungry heart be pining still.
These know their doom, and walk their way
With level steps and steadfast eyes,
Nor strive with Fate, nor weep, nor pray
While others, not so sadly WISE
Are mccked by phantoms evermOre,
And .ured by seemings Of delight,
Fair to their eve, but at their core
Holding but bitter dust and blight.
l see them gaze from wistful eyes,
I mark their sign on fading cheeks;
/ hear them breathe in smothered sigEs,
And note the grief that never speaks;
For them no might redresses wrong,
70 eye with pity is impearled.
Oh rn:sConstrued and suffering long!
Oh. hearts that hunger through the world !
Fer YOU does life's dull desert hold
No fountain shade. no date grove fair,
No gilsh of waters clear and cold,
But sandy reaches wide and bare.
The foot NAV fail, the soul may faint,
nd weigh TO earth the weary frame,
Yet still We make no weak complaint,
And speak no word of grief or blame.
Oh, eager eyes with gaze afar
Oh, arms which clasp the empty air
Not ali unmarked your sorrows are,
Not all unpitied your dispair.
smi!e, patient lips so proudly dumb
When life's frail tent at last is fulled,
Your glorious recompense shall come,
Oh, hearts tina! hunger through the world

containing two men sailing down the rap
