encampment that night was well chosen by
George, for it was just by tho fountain
whose waters Elisha healed with salt. We
drank plentifully of it, and better water l
have not tasted in Palestine. We fell
asleep that night within sound of tho
cheerful stream by which it empties into
the Jordan. Right back of us rose, like
vast pyramid, Quarantania, the mountain
which is thought to have been the scene of
Christs temptation. Milton, if his blind
eyes had been opened, and he had been gaz-
ing on it, could not have more faithfully
described his appearance than when he said
cit was mountain at whose verdant feet
A spacious plain, outstretched in circuit
Lay pleasant; from his side two rivers
flowed,
The one winding, the other straight, and
left between
Fair champaign with less rivers interviewed,
Then meeting Joined their tribute to the
Fertile of corn tho glebe, of oil and wine
With herds the pastures thronged, with
tlocks the hills
Hugo cities and high-towered, that well
might seem
The seats of mightiest monarchs, and so
large
Tho prospect was, that here and there was
For barren desert, fountainless and dry.
To this high mountain, too, the tempter
Brought our Saviour, and now train of
words began"
It required some two hours for US to ride
briskly from Jericho over the site of ancient
Gilgal to the Jordan. And what narrow
stream it is We came almost to it before
we could see the water, so hidden is it by
willow, reeds and balsam. We secured a
boat and crossed it, and walked some dis
lance down its clayey eastern bank, we'll
nigh losing our boots in our effort to reach
the waters edge. We fingered long by the
margin, as if bound by spell that none of
us could we'll break, and too forgetful of
the warning not to go far from the boat,
because of lurking Bedouins. The water
is of a light yellow color, about that of
mountain stream swollen by heavy rains.
The current is very rapid, and to have tried
to swim across it would have been fatal to
the best swimmer in our little company
We recrossed it, mounted our horses again,
followed the path close to the bank through
the luxuriant growth Of trees and rushes
for mile or two, and then, after filling
few bottles which we had brought with us
with water from the river, we struck dag
onally across the plain, and were glad, after
a wearisome ride, to cast ourselves down
with the lazy lizards under the broken
arches of an old and forsaken church, not
knowing which was the more welcome, our
good luncheon or the pleasant nap after
ward.-MeihodSst.

Song Of Summer.

Sweet summer is coming, the insects arc
humming,
The birds are all wooing, and building
their home;
The wild flowers are blooming, the garden
pertaining,
And woodland and meadows invite us to
roam.
The bright spheres arc Ginning the sun
proudly climbing,
Looks down upon earth with a love-bcam-
ing eye;
Whilst she in her gladness, forgets winter s
sadness
And sends up her odors and songs to the
sky.
The stream of the mountain, escaped from
its fountain,
Skips, dancing like childhood, along
through the plain,
All nature rejoices, her ten thousand voices,
Awake now that summer is coming
again.
Age, weary with duty, and youth in fresh
beauty,
Fen the pale with disease, now come
forth at the sound
Each heart swells with pleasure, the miser
his treasure,
Forgets, for the while, as he gazes around.
Oh naturel what feelings thy glorious
revealings
Awake, as we bow at thy shrine and
adore
The Power that upholds thee, whose love
cor Unfold thee,
Renewing thy life as each year passes o Ter.

GOING WEST.


Though shall never see that glorious land,
Where these young giant cities stand,
Those broad, grand rivers flow
But with your fathers full consent,
Remember, Jesse, that you go.
You'll find it well you've seen life in tho
rough
When in tho ranks-both you and Ned ;
Out there is where they need such stuff;
Strong hands and steady head.
IT'S little can give alone you win or loso
the game,
Though something worth an honest name
You need not blush TO bear,
And over Ned, want that you,
Oh, Jesse have care.
Don't let him sell his soul for gold
Or fame for naught save Gods own
truth
For when ali else grows false and cold,
1t still shall flourish in immortal youth.
These same hills and fields I've seen,
Some fifty years, exchange the green
OF Spring, for Autumn's russell brown;
Here read the quiet pages of my life,
AS faith hath wrote them down.
1t is not strange that desire to stay
The old familiar scenes among;
To close life's evening sombre gray,
Where dawned my morning fresh and
young.
Meath the walnuts by the knoll, you know,
They laid your mother years ago;
And close beside her, little Grace;
All mo !! ton weary years has wild grass hid
From mo the bonnie, bonnie face.
And not day the sun shines fair,
But sit there, to hear tho birds, and SEQ
The space betwixt those grassy mounds
That soon must ope for me.
Through life you'll nobly bear your part
The wife you'll take you to your heart,
The children gather round your knee
My precious boy, these fond old eyes
Wilt oft grow dim to see.
Yet God is good and
Have feebly tried to serve him,
And so fear not to die.

Milking-Tilne.
BY GEORGE COOPER.

When shadows lengthen on the plain,
And leaves are scarlet in the sun
When cows are lowing in the lane,
And coming homeward one by one;
When mists are tangled in the trees
That overhang the rivers bank;
And farmers chat and take their ease,
And shining pals go "clink and clank :"
That's milking-time.
When puss and fido linger round,
And run beside the dairy-maids;
When circling swallows skim the ground,
And on the caves make sudden raids
When rosy girls ditty sing,
And squirrels hide in leafy home;
And crosswise jets go "ping and ping"
And pals are heaped with creamy foam ::
That's milking time.
When little ones are tired with play,
And in the corners blink and nod;
When katydids are loud and gay,
And wetted grows the chilly sod
When stars are few and family glow,
And waking fircflies gather fast,
Like drifted flakes of golden snow
It's hey for home the hour is past
For milking time
