MORNING DEW.
BY G. A. sIMcox.

The dew drors vanish one by one,
That seem to glisten everywhere,
Drawn by the kisses OF the sun
Into the thirsty lap of air:
They vanish, and they do not die,
Although the thirsty road be dry.
The dew at night will fall in vain
On broken heritage by the way;
The dew will change to gentle rain,
And waken far-off flowers to May;
Yet herbs and flowers in every sky,
In every land, are born to die.
The pleasant thoughts Of dawning youth
Are parciied away BY toll and care,
And leave the dusty road OF truth,
The trodden path oil duty hare;
And vet our pleasant thoughts are true.
Although they pass like morning dew.
They pass from us. their light is shed
On broken works of weary hands;
They pass from US, their sweetness fed
Some nobler toll in happier lands:
Yet every man beneath the sun
Doth all his deeds to be undOne.
Our pleasant thoughts are like the dew,
One half of heaven, one half OF earth;
They seem to die, but tkeey;r :-;.:e.
The sacrament of their sweet birth;
But fruitful plants and deeds Of men
Are earth, and turn TO earth again. ...
In thirsty fields of barren air
The dew is born to fall in vain
Our Thoughts 20 mp TO heaven, and there
They change to nlists of golden rain,
Whereof the four-fOld fOuntain-head
In Paradise is always fed.
Our thoughts, that seem to come and go
Abide indeed in God on high;
For he ordains to water so '
The only tree that does not die:
And angels in its shadow sit;
But who is he shall eat of t?

The majority for Seymour is about $4,000, and
that for Hoffman is much larger. In Brooklyn
Seymour is again distanced by Hoffman, al.
though the city goes Democratic. The vote in
the State is close, the returns indicating great
Republican gains. In Maine, Vermont, New
