here and in courtesy to the pco
pie of this vicinity he should have
sent Il notice also 10 this paper. Al

THE FATHERS DEATH.
he embers on the hearth,

As die the embcrs on the hearth,
And DER the floor the shadows fall,
And creeps the chirping cricket forth,
And ticks the death watch in the wall
see II form In yonder chair,
That grows beneath the waning light
There are the wan, sad teatures--there
The pallid brow, aud locks Of white
Ny Father when they laid thee down,
And heap'd the clay upon 'hy breast,
And left thee sleeping all alone
Upon thy narrow couch Of rest
know not why, could not weep
The soothing drops refused to roll,
And oh that grief is wild and deep,
Which settles fearless on the soul
But when I saw thy vacant chair
Thine idle hat upon the wall
Thy book-the pencifd passage where
Thine eye had rested last Of all
The tree beneath whose friendly shade
Thy trembling feet had WANDERED forth
The very prints those feet had made
When last they feebly trod the earth;
And thought, while countless ages fed,
Thy vacant seat would vacant stand
Unworn thy hat, thy book unread,
EHaced tny footsteps iFom the SAND
And widow'd in the cheerless world.
The heart that gave its love TO thee
Torn, like vine whose tendrils curld
More closely round The falling tree!
Oh, father! then for her and thee
Gush'd madly forth the scorehing tears
And oft, and long, and bitterly,
Those tears have gush d in later years ~
For as the world grows cold around,
And things take on their real hue,
'Tis sad to learn that love is found
Alone above the stars, with you
