Anchor was weighed. tho sails were set;
The brccZn from land was fresh and free;
And many bright eye tear-irups wet,
When the ~loop-stem cleit the swelling sea.
Leaning against the tai'crel-har,
market u youth was signing sore,
As he watched his loves rcccding star
A blue-eycd fair one on the shore.

Aud cOnld hat deem her love was true,
Till distance barred the touching sight.
And the sweet maid faded from my view.
High In tho Northern baldrick's air, d.
The clouds in wild commoiion wreathed;
The strong power Of the winds was there,
And there the storms fierce spirit breathed
One half the welkn dome was dark
With tlrc black tempest In Its maniac gcc,
And in tho other half harqne--
A cloud-larque-sailed the upper sea.
As on the gallant vessel bore
Her freight of throbbing hearts and lilo,
How many dreamt of the fading shore,
OF gentle sweetheart loving wife!
The golden feckered clouds
Were wreathing round the setting sun;
And the breeze was signing in the shrouds
Like the voice of SOME fair widowed one.
dreamed of Oceans soundless deep
OF gems Its coral grottoes bear
Where fable says the Nereds sleep,
While star flowers hang their yexils there.
| thought of many love-star's sad eclipse;
OF mirky night, and wreck and storm;
How the weird Sea might ope its liquid lips
And swallow up the lovers form.

Over the blue waves OF tho sea,
Though no sweet maid with lily hand
A farewell iondly waved to me.

In sunny France, in gay Bordeaux
And like the magnet to the star,
To HER his heart would point as true:
That whoresoe'r his loet might roam,
Where'er his barque Of life might float,
His soul would echo tones of home,
Like sea-sholl from its wave remote
j wonder-on this cloudless day
In the warm South's yoluptuous cline,
In the green years resplendent May, -
Which muffs with flowers the steps OF Time,-
If, when I'd leave these scenes to rove
Der foreign plain, or mount, or sea,
I'd leave in hamlet, bower, or grove,
heart to sigh with love for me.

SUNsI1rNE.-The coutrv-houses

SUNsHINE.-The coutry-houses of
Great Britain are by no means shaded as
our own; and the most considerable piles
of buildings, such as Eaton Hall, Blen-
helm, Dalkeith, and Burghley House,
have hardly noticeable tree within a
stones throw of their walls. The flower
patches and coppices of shrubbery ap-
broach more nearly, and to the garden
trouts of those magnificent homes you
walk through walls of blooming shrubs.
But the full flow of the sunshine upon
the window is a thing courted. Allow
ing for all difference in climate, there
may be question if we do not err in this
country by overmuch shading. A cot
tage in a wood is pretty subject for poe
try, but it is apt to be uncomfortably
damp. And there are village streets
with us so embowered that scarce ray
of sunshine can play fairly upon the roofs
or fronts of the village houses from june
to October. A summers life under such
screen cannot contribute to the growth
of roses in the cheeks any more than t.
the growth of roses at the door. Their,
is no provision against agues- whether
moral or physical like good flow o
sunshine.-Donald G. Mitchell.

Comes to me DER and Ger
I'm nearer home to-day,
Than I've ever been before.
Nearer my Fathers house.
Where many mansions be;
Nearer the great white Throne"
Nearer the Jasper sea.
Nearer the bound Of life
Where we lay our burdens down;
Nearer leaving the cross
Nearer Wearing the crown.
But lying darkly between,
Winding down through the night,
Lies the dim uncertain stream
Which leads at last to light
Closer and closer my steps,
Come to the dark abysm,-
Closer death to my lips.
Presses the awful chrsm.

Strengthen the might of faith,

CURIOUS CAsE.-According to the Min
neapolis (Minn.) Tribune, Mrs. George
Holt and Mrs. ]. w. Brigham, of that
city, with a brother residing at Chicopee,
Mass, aie sole heirs to an estate of $780,
600 feft by a brother who died in Detroit,
Mich, twenty-six years since, and which
has been fraudulently withheld from the
heirs all that time. 1t appears that Jonas
G. Brigham, of Chicopee. Mass, went to
Detroit in 1888 and engaged in business.
Four years later an accident occurred by
which he was instantly killed. At this
time he was betrothed to daughter Of
Col. Brooks, wealthy gentleman who
wrote to Brigham's father, giving an ac-
count of his death, and offering to settle
the deceased's estate, which he represent
ed to be trifing. He was accordingly
made administrator, and, after a little
time had passed, wrote to Mr.. Brigham
that his son left nothing but gold watch
and clothing, which he thought should b
given him for his trouble.-This was acs
cepted as a true statement, and the mat
ter slept until about three months since.
when triHing circumstance led the rel
atives to think that there had been unfair
ness in the settlement. An investigation
develoded the fact that Mr.. Bingham had
died possessed of $15O,OOO worth of real
estate, the income from which had been
enjoyed by the administrator and the
Judge of Probate for twenty-six years.
A general overhauling has taken place,
and the property has been delivered up to
its rightful owners.

which should be Cultivated. Cotton
or Cereals?
tt is stated that six vessels recently
brought to Texas, by way of the gulf
great number Of German Immigrants, who
purpose to become agriculturists and
employ themselves in farming, and that
number Of men from Vermont have gone to
the same State for the purpose Of rearing
herds on the rich praries and pasturages
Of that region. A writer in Houston
journal, who mentions these facts, is in
clined TO discourage the too extensive cul-
tivation of cotton, and recommends agri-
culture in all its modes, including that Of
the vine, along with the care Of flocks and
herds, as afording shrer sources Of emolu-
ment than the cultivation of the cotton
plant, which, since the Substitution Of
American cotton in England by the cotton
Of India and other regions, is considered
too precarious a resource to be depended
on. The Texas papers, as quoted in the
series Of letters lately addressed by Henry
C. Carey 20 Senator Wilson, of Massas
chusetts, state that in central Texas, during
the past year, eighty-fve bushels Of barley,
which is a native of Southern climate,
we're made TO the acre. 1t is said 10 be
superior to the Northern barley for brew
ing, and, as compared with corn, is pro-
nounced better food for stock, particularly
work stock, as it is muscle producing and
does not heat the system like the oil or fat
producing property Of corn. Other ad-
vantages are, that while it produces three
times as much to the acre Of grain, the
stock consumes all Of the straw Rand
can cultivate much more ground IN barley
than corn, and it needs 20 working after
planting. Facts like these show that the
cultivation Of cotton is by no means the
only resource of the South, and it is for the
West to consider whether such sentiments
as those expressed in a late debate In the
Senate, by Mr.. Morton, Of Iodiane, IN
bitter opposition to the abolition Of the
cotton tax, reflect the true policy OF the
Western States in their tendency by diInin
ishing the culture of cotton in the Sou.a, TO
convert it from a consumer of Western
breadstufls to a producer and a rival, and
ultimately TO divert the tide Of European
and Northern emigration from the West to
the more genial regions Of the South.
