In the rush and roar OF raln'
With O cry OF pleading pain,
And cling to me again
AS OF DID, Of old.
In the dying OF the day,
When the SIMS last rosy ray
Has faded from the chestnuts by the gate,
He will come along the road,
Underneath the branches broad
nc the old elms where his father used to walt;
Aud my heart will open Wide
As he nestles to my side,
And murmurs "Mother' softly in the OLD sweet

Oh, know that he will come
To his open, waiting home,
That is looking for him always While he's gone;
And the nights will shorten then,
And the days grow long again..
And / shall know happiness that Ior seais

DEMOREST'S MONTHLY,

magazine OF practical utility in the house, q
mirror Of the fashions and literary conser-
vator Of surprising interest and artistic excel
ence, acknowledged to be the modern parlor
magazine of America
The engraving 28x32 inches, is from the or
iginal painting, entitled, The Picnic on the
Fourth of July
The painting took a whole year, and is con-
sidered the finest of the entire list of numerous
populor productions by Lille NJ. Spencer The
engraving was the labor of four years, by
three eminent artists-John Rodgers, Samuel
Halpin, and Samuel Hollyer; The last named
having been induced to come from Europe to
finish it. The engravers have ably seconded
the successful labors of the painter. None but
artists can fully appreciate the skill and labor
lavished on this engraving The general eff
tect is very fine and impressive, and the deli
rate finish to the heads will bear the most mi
mute inspection. The union of line and stipple
is executed with unusual ability, and their
skilful combination has greatly contributed to
the success of the engrayers in this unsurpass-
ed proof of their genius.
The}work on the engraving alone cost over
seven thousand dollars, besides the cost Of the
copyright, and is acknowledged by competent
judges the most elaborately finished large work
of art eyor engraved in America.
Fine copies of this magnificent picture, on
heavy plate paper, worth $40 each, are to be
given as premium to each subscriber to
