With the gift Of my youth again.

With my beautiful dark-ey ed love,

AND touch the red lips Of the girl.
When the moon rose over the Iskelet.

She is lying ssleep in the churchyard.
Meath blossom, and bough. and vine;
My name is inscribed on the headstone-
The name that was hers and mine;
And garlands of wild clematis
Are shrouding the dsrk-eyed Kate.
whose lips met mine when we parted,
Way down by the old red gate.
The daisies were whitening the hill side.
And gemming like stars the heath,
When 1 stood with my pale-fReed darling
Oicse down by the waves Of death,
So close that heard in fancy
The rush Of the ftful tide,
And the dripping oars Of the boatman
Who waited away my bride.
All. well the years that have fingered.
So freighted with sorrow and care,
For the saint-white face in the coffin.
Have silvered the brown Of my hair.

The sky is clOadle7s and clear;
But know by the lengthening shadows
The sunset of death Is near.

For JOY, shall solsmnly toll
And the fortress, so frnil and stricken,
No longer shall prison my soul;
In the light of the glad tomorrow,

A FRENonwOMAN IN THE EAST.

The Mount of Olives, which so
many thousands Of Crusaders split
their blood in vain to conquer and
keep for Christendom, has been res
cGed from the Moslem by woman.
1t has been purchased by the
Princess De la Tour d'Auvergne, a
lady Of one of the four princely
families of France, whose unappeas-
able piety has induced her to I'M
dertake, in the Holy Land and to the
good of the church, a series of ar
chitectHral and engineering works
much more extensive than those
which the beautiful Georgiana,
Duchess of Devonshire, Coleridge's
'lady nursed inpomp and pleasure"
carried out at the beginning Of this
century in Rome in the interest of
archaeology and the arts. The
Princess is erecting at Jerusalem a
campo santo, or cemetery, to be
called the sPater Noster" All
around the walls of this cemetery,
Our Lords Prayer will be inscribed
in letters fifteen centimetres long,
on plates of bronze and in all known
languages. The Princess has also
given a sum Of money to maintain a
priest for the special service of this
sanctuary, which will be completed
in May and taken possession of at
that time by the French Consul in
the name of France. There are sew
eral things in France, we beg the
casual reader to observe, besides the
opera bouffe and the can-can.

THE TROUBLES IN SPAIE.

In the Constituent Cortes of Spain
parties are beginning to take ground
on the question of permanent gov
eminent for that country. The
republicans, finding that the lead
ers of the provisional authority are
disposed to make the revolution of
non-effect, and place still heavier
chains on the masses, by q new
name, are disposed to open the con-
test afresh, selecting as opponents
some of the old leaders, who have
proved untrue to their trusts In
recent debate in the Cortes, the re-
publican speakers attacked in an
open and bold manner the Ministry
for their monarchical leaning and
proclivities, and demanded that the
Duke Of Montpensier be Invested of
his rank as a Marshal of Spain, and
reduced to the level of a simple
citizen. This movement was aimed
and leveled at his pretensions to the
throne, and some of the republican
members accused the provision al
government of endeavoring to
smuggle this man into Spain
for the purpose of placing him
on the throne in opposition
to the meaning and intent of
the revolution, and in the
face of the wishes of those who
shed their blood to uproot the old
system and bring in one more in
harmony with the spirit of the age
General Prim protested against the
Marshal being deprived of his title
while the fiery Topete declared that
a kingdom with Montpensier on the
throne, was far preferable to a re-
public. This open unmasking Of
the real intents Of the leading spir
