sY GEORGE ooorsR.

II was an ancient book keeper,
And he was tall and slim;
Though his face was mild, he rarely smiled
His clothes were dark and prim;
And every thing about his desk,
He kept exceeding trim.
He alvays hung his hst and cost
Upon the self same hooks
And laid his rulers. pens and ink
In their respective hooks;
And the only exercise he had,
Was footing up his books.
Each day, upon the selfsane hour,
He took his lofty seat
And bent his body and his mind
His labors to complete;
And blots were neither on bis fame
Nor on his ledger sheet.
The music Of his pen was heard
From morn till eventide;
Up columns vast his eyes were cast.
Then down again with pride;
Quits pleased was he. though he saw his work
Increased and multiplied
The cash that DER his fingers came
Each day, was something grand;
And vet no scheme to bear it oG,
By him was ever planned:
Although you saw. with half an eye,
That he wrote "sloping" hand.
He had no wife. he made no friends,
His joys and cares were few;
And his dearest hope from day to day,
Was 70 keep his balance true:
A good world this, If every man
The latter thing would do.
He never sighed when little ills
His way Of life would cross;
And DER the errors of his youth
He showed no vain remorse;
But set down all that came along.
To profit or to loss
One day, the creditor Of all.
Dropped in far his amount:
He found the old man at his post.
Though low ran natures fount;
The books were closed, and he was borne
Up to his last account

ROCK ME TO SLEEP.
By FLORENCE PERCY.

Make me a child again, just for tonight!
Mother, come back from the echoless shore,
Take me again to your heart, as Of y0re;
kiss from my forehead the burrows Of care.
Smooth the few silver threads out Of my hair;
Over my slumbers your loving watch keep
Rock me to sleep, nother-rock me to sleep!
i am so weary of toll and Of tears
Toll without recompense-tears all In vain
Take them. and give me my childhood again!
have grown weary of dust and decay
Weary Of f3inging my soul wealth away
Weary of sowing for others to reap
Rock me to sleep, nfother-rock me 70 Sleep!
Tired of the hollow, the base, the untrue,
Mother, oh. mother, my heart calls for you!
Many a Summer the grass has grown green,
Rlossomed and faded, our faces between;
Yet with strong yearning and passionate pain,
Long tonight for your presence again;
Come from the silence so long and 50 deep
Rock me to sleep mother-rock me to sleep!
Over my heart, in the days that are flown,
No love like mother-lOve ever has sh0ne;
No other worship abides and endures,
Faithful, unselfish, and patient like yours
None like a mother can charm away pain
From the sick soul and the world-weary brain;
Slumbers soft Gains DER my weary lids creep
Rock me to sleep, mother-r0ck me to sleep!
Come let your brown hair, just lighted with gold,
Fall on your shoulders again. as of old;
Let il drop over my forehead tonight
Shading my faint eyes away from the light;
For with its sunny-edged shadows once more,
HAPPY will thronl the sweet visions Of yore-
Lovingly, softly, its bright pillows sweep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleep!
Mother dear mother! the years have been long,
Since l last listened your lullaby song;
Sing, then, and unto my soul il shall seem
womanhoods years have been only dream;
Clasped to your heart in a loving embrace,
With your light lashes just sweeping my face,
Never hereafter to wake or to weep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleep!

A SUGGESTION.

TO Ihe Bdftor OF TIE Tribune.
STR: There are some 80, 900 churches q have
no statistics at hand In the Northern States II one
half OF those churches would offer TO receive one family
each from Chicago care for II, and put 1t in way OF
would be almost entirely alleyiAted. The railroads
would be expected TO furnlsh transportation free or at
could afford provide each family with small amount
OF money: BY this method whatever habits Of seure-
served and the moral degradation and vice which al.
ways accompany the boarding together OF large number
Of destitute people, would be avoided. J.Rw.
