blica francesa, apresta en- Tolon una

tierro. Las tropas espanolas, despues
de restablecer ell 6rden en- Terracina
y dejar a S. S. instalado en- su pala-

puesto, y solo breves palabras nos
quedan que anadir porque los dlti-

disolver 4 Pio TX ell Concilio yperder

cientes para que nadie los ignore y
entranan apreciaciones que no cree
mos conveniente hacer en- nuestro

rio que por tantas amarguras ha
pasado, quo tanto bien ha hecho,
que tanto ha sufrido, es el primero en-
diez y nueve siglos que cuenta, des-
pues del que acompan6 a Jesucristo,
mas amos de pontifcado. Por ESQ he
mos dicho que desde sus primeros

two tan fausto, tan exceptional, acu-
dan todos los fieles a recibir la ben
dicion apost6lica del anciano y san

bispos quiere bendecir a toda la

que algunos hombres notables han
manifestado sobre Pho TX. "Es uno
de los poncifces mas celosos de los
que Sc han sentado en- la catedra de

LOVES CHOICE.

The stroller in the pensive field
Doth many a wildering flower descry,
Sometimes to him the Roses yield,
Sometimes the Lilies feed his eye;
Sometimes he takes delIghl in one,
Sometimes in all, sometimes in none.
But when, in dusky woodland ways,
He sees, beside some dreaming stone,
The fresh untutored Violet raise
Her pleading eyes for him alone,
Then makes his heart it's final choice,
And Nature speaks in PASSIONS voice.
The stroller beauty's garden through
BY many a hayward impulse led,
Sometimes is charmed by gold and blue,
Sometimes by brown and mantling red !;
Sometimes proud dame and maiden small
Please just the same, or not at all.
But when, remote from pleasures whirl
He sees, at homes sequestered shrine,
The ardent, cheerful, guileless girl,
OfmOrtal mould but soul divine
Too good, too beautiful to know
How fair her worth and beauty show
Then all his rowing fancies pause,
Entranced by this Overwhelming grace !;
1t rules him by celestial laws;
1t lights splendor in his face.
IT'S the best good that Heaven can give !;
lie wins it and begins to live.

Could we know the pain and shadow
That the coming days may bring,
Would we toll on hraveIy, darling
Would We ever care TO sing?
Or, would not our voices fdlter,
And our eyes grow moist and dim,
And our music catch the cadence
OF a sad and mOurn!ul hymn?
Could we see the thorns and briers
Growing thckty on round way,
Would our hearts keep up our courage
And 90 boldly on each day?
Rather would we sit down saying,
18th rms will wound and tear our feet,
So what use to VEN ure through them,
We shall only find defeat.''
Could we know the cares and trials
That the nearing future hides;
Could we see the shares and pitfalls,
Lurking close on every side
COuld We see all these, my darling,
Bravest hearts would soon grow faint,
And orr hopes and aims would perish
In weak and sad complaint.
Oh, thank God the clouds are hidden,
That the coming day may bring;
In the sunshine OF the present,
Lei Us Journey on and sing
Let us pluck the flowers growing
In the grass about our feet,
And forget abuu- the hrers
Till their thorns we chance to meet.
We will bridge the snares and pitfalls
With faith both brave and strong
And z. journeying on together
With glad, triumphant song
Many tune will lose its gladness
In the minor notes Of pain
But remember, after shadows
Win the sunshine come again.

THE TEACHING OF THE SEASONS.

Said the mourner to the Winter,
Clasp me in your sable arms
Colder, colder make this bosom,
Steel'd against life's fond alarms"
Said the mourner to the Spring-time.
Why so gay and lightsolne thou?
All the mirth and joy within me
Fled my bosom long ere now"
And the Spring said to the mourner,
'See the bare and Ieatless tree
Clothed again in yernal splendor
So must every sufferer be-"
Said the mourner to the Summer.
In milder, humber mood,
"Warm the newborn hopes within me.
Feeble promises of good"
And the mourner to the Autumn
Show'd face from sorrow free.
Chasten'd by the passing trial,
Calm as an untroubled sea.
And each hope in slow fruition,
In life's Autumn clearly shone
By misfortune's stern tuition,
Lasting happiness is won.
