A Mother Made-And Made MOtherIess.

Come to the earth is II spirit light,
ROBBED in wec-bt, airy form,
Before it all life's sunshine bright.
With what must he of the waysde storm.
| gaze on the tiny, upturned face,
i peer in the depths of its clear, calm eye,
Till all earth seemed crowned with exquisite
grace,
And my hcart sings newborn melody
Far into our home meath the mountain slopes
Fill this fragrant drop, of pleasantness.
She brought to her fathers heart high hope,
And to mine, a mothers tender bliss
o, watchlcss love that the parent knows
Unfelt, unguessed till the helpless wall
To the utmost depth Of feeling goes,
Loves strongest fortress To assal.
Gone from the earth is precious soul,
Its worn out tenement laid aside,
Behind Il all lifes care-waves roll,
Safe on the shore at the other side.
Yos, she took the Sayior's outstretched hani,
And forded the silent stream so calm
That it seemed cen then her brows were Tanned
by gentle winds bearing Heavens balm
Mother, dear mother, We loved thee So
Thou vast so gentle unselGsh Away,
Twas hard, very hard, to let thee 60,
Fen though our loss was thy dawn Of day.
Twas sad in our far of home to hear
That mother was wasting hour by hour,
While the longing mish to DO once more there
Found no fufllment in our power.
q for one look at the long loved face
For one more grasp of tho faithful hand
one juI one word that our grief might ease
But we wait them all in thc-spirit land
Yet she was long dear blessing lent,
Her three score years and ten all sealed.
The fruit was ripe when her spirit went
The sheaf drawn white from the harvest fe |
And we have her memory, better lar
Than costliest gifts of miser's store
Her virtues radiant landmarks are
ia guide us to the other shore
...., 49,.
Win il be that then, our infant chiid,
Or the twig of life just budding forth,
Shall blossom and ripen, sweet and mild
To sustain her place of untold worth
. Time in thy ceaseless ronnd Of year
But one full change Of seasons has
To this heart brought new and mingled tear,
A mother mlde-and made motheress

The War.

In regard to the recent battles Of Metz
We learn that the fighting began Sunday,
near that city,at 8 p. NJ, and was brought
about by Prussian attack on Frossards
Division, which was about Withdrawing
from its position. The attacking force
was under command Of Prince Frederick
Charles and Gen. Steinmetz. No parti-
cular results followed, the French contin-
ued the retreat in an orderly manner
Marshal Bazaine was slightly wounded,
and had horse killed under him. The
French loss in this fight was 5000 and
the German 10000, the disproportion was
owing to the destruction caused by the
mitraueuse. The fight at Gravelott, where
Napoleon had established his head-quar-
tiers, began on Monday evening. And
here also the slaughter was terrible, in
fact in all the accounts received from
various places heavy losses are admitted
ON both sides. A dispatch from Berlin
states that another great battle took
place on Tuesday morning, and claims
victory. Bazaine was attacked while en-
deavoring to fall back from Metz to Yer
dun. The combat lasted twelve hours.
A number of prominent German officers
we're killed. King William on Wednes-
day, saluted the troops on the battlefield
French accents of the situation are vague
although dispatch from Paris states that
Bazaine claims that the Prussians have
been repulsed along the entire line. Gen
Frossard is reported to have been griev
ously wounded in one of the battles. TIT
Prince Royal of Prussia, it is also repor
ted, has been slightly wounded. The ru
mored refusal Of Napoleon to grant al
armistice, it is said in Paris,is confirmed
The report of the movements by the wa.
of London are similar to those receives
from Berlin, and engagements continuing
through Monday and Tuesday are repor
ted. An official dispatch, received in Pari

Interest seems to have been somewhat
awakened recently to the opportunity Of
studying the earth's internal temperature
through the abandoned artesian well at
st. Louis. In addition to the movement
Of the Smithsonian Institute, British
scientific society has forwarded letters Of
inquiry on the subject.
The Canadians feel much annoyed by
the disarmament of their forts. AtQue-

pointing to flag which was flying over
the citadel.
Among the new inventions is that Of a

TIE RELATIvESTRENGTH OF THE FRENCH
AND PRusIAN NAvIEs. - The London
Times has an article on this topic, from
which we collate some statistics: Prussia
has six iron-clads completed and another
nearly so. One of these, the KONG Will
helm, is one of the gnest in the world. 1t
was built originally for the Turkish navy,
but was bought by the Prussians, after it
had been offered to the country and re-
fused. Her other iron-clads are the
friedrich Karl and Krom Prinz, which
are broadside vessels, and the Arminius
and Adalbcrt, which are turret ships. Be-
sides these there are thirty-three wooden
vessels of various sizes. OF seamen,
Prussia is lily supplied, her whole force
not exceeding 5000 men.
The war feet of France consists at the
moment of about sixty iron-clads, includ-
in 6 floating batteries. Large, however,
in size as is this war feet, its strength is
not in proportion to its size. Compared
with the Prussian navy it can only oppose
satisfactorily one ship to the KONG Will
helm. The Rochambeau, which the
French Government bought from America
in 1867, is most powerful vessel. 1t is
a ram, but carries its guns broadside, and
has burthen of 5000 tons. Four very
powerful vessels,at the French navy can
oppose to the two turret ships Of the
Prussians-the Taureau, the Belicr, the
Cerbere, and the Boule Dogue. These
four are steam rams, and have speed
of about fourteen knots each. They each
carry one gun Of twenty tons, and each is
covered with cylinder ball-proof dome
In addition there are ffty-four iron-cladi
divided into nine classes Besides thes'
for the protection of the coasts, there arr
twenty-seven floating batteries and fou
coastguard vessels, built to carry heav,
guns hut having no great speed.

Mr.. FRELIN0nUYsEN's REsIGNATIoN.-
We have at last Mr.. Frellinghuysen's de-
clination of the mission to England, over
his own signature. 1t would have been
well if it had come sooner, and the Pres
ident had chosen some one else who would
have accepted and entered upon his du.
ties at once. Speculation as to who will
be iMr. Motley's successor is at fault.
Senator Trumbull of Illinois is the man
most prominently named, and some ac-
counts say that he has agreed to take it
and is on the way to Washington to re-
ceivc instructions.
