WE HOPE.
BY WILL NJ CARLETON.

With the sunlight. with the moonlight. with
Come to us thousand memories that arc true
and sweet and Oldcn;
And we enter in the chamber of our hearts so
gladly lighted
And with blooming hopes we cover all the joys
that care hath bliGhtcd;
And encouraging and rejoicing, We &C forth
upon our way.
With the midnight. with the storm cloud. with
the darkness iercely scowing.
With the rattling Of the rain-drOps, and the
tempest'S dreary bowling,
ThrO' our weary hearts. in darkness. we go
haltIng, stumbling, cropping,
While despair is hard up IN us, aud cen covers
up our hoping;
And in sadness and in silence for glcam of
Hghtwe pray.
Then we yearn and call for comfort; but no
comfort comes unto US.
And we wrap ourselves in sadness, and dcS-
pair goes thrilling through us:
And the darkness gathers round us, with its
horrors half unspOken,
And we pray again for succor, that the dreary
spell be broken
With the light Of something shining, be it only
one ray.
Then within our hearts a blossom from the
drcary mold is sprinGing.
The birds of hope make US music with their
sweet and cheerful singing;
Then, upon the great clouds gazing, We dis
eern their silver lining,
Until through the veil of darkness bursts the
sunbeams glorious shining,
And our longing eyes are greeted with the
bright and perfect day.

there are conditions of the human

soothcd Mrs. Marston into a state of
comparative composure, said no
more about leaving, and made up
my mind to be Nellie's bedfcIlOw for
the remainder of my stay.
More than a week had passed, and,
as there was no recurrence Ofthe vis-
itatin, began TO give up lying

on the contrary, it was u face that
had been beautiful, but it was dark
and foreign in its expression. And
oh, that dreadful look Of stiffness and
which | felt in my inmOst
heart had no sympathy with the liv-
ing things so near her. With my
child's hand clasped in mine, l OBJ

The blood rushed back to my heart,

the ghostly thing had disappeared,

The Grandest Railway Project of the
Age.

The Boston Post says it is prOpos-
cd to construct, or perfect by union
of railroad lines already constructed,
q continuous route of travel from
London TO Bombay, by which the
journey may be made, without
change of csrS, in five days. sixteen
hours and fOrty-eight minutcs-a
very nice calculation, surely, when
the distance is considered, which is
j,339 miles; but the variation of a
minute or two in the time, either
way, will constitute no serious
grou ld of complaint or objection to
the scheme. The contemplated route
is by way of Dover Straits. IS miles,
and through France by existing lines
aud the Mount CeIis Tunnel. to Tri-
este, whence the line IS to be COM
pleted through Austria, European
and Asiatic Turkey, Persia, Beloo-
chistar. to kurraChCe, and so on to
bombay. a tunnel is to be built
under the channel to complete an
unbrOkcn line of rail; but until that
is done, the Straits will be crossed by
a powerful steamer with a degree of
certainty, which, unless in extreme
weather, will not, it is apprehended,
affect the question of time more than
a minute or so. The plan has been
laid before Mr. Gladstone, with the
expectation that his influence may
secure the needed aid from the Brit
ish Government.
Two hundred millions of dollars
in gold are required to complete this
line; and England setting n strong
example, it is proposed that the diff
erent countries through which the
line passes should bear each lis due
share Of the cost of the grand enter
prise. The idea is neither chimeri-
cal nor impracticable, nor does it ex-
ceed in magnitude and grandeur the
Pacific Railroad. which our Young
country has constructed without ex-
trancous aid.
