NINA's DREAM.


Last night, mamma, had a dream,
All quiet in my bed
1t made me sad, for 'twas dream
That Alice Gray was dead.
1t wasn't that she didn't pray
That God her heart would keep,
And send His angels all the way
From Heaven to guard her sleep.
Ono, mamma, it wasn't that,
For she prayed every day;
But to the angels God hath said,
$50 after Alice Gray"
And quick from Heaven they turned to fy
And nothing did them stay,
Until on earth, beneath the sky,
They found dear Alice Gray.
[ saw them kiss her swes, mamma,
And she began to cry
When quickly meath their wings, mamma
They carried her on high.
The harps of Heaven rang out their sound
In music soft and sweet;
And while they played on shining ground
They walked on shining feet.
And then dreamed that Alice Gray
Was brought bcfore the throne,
And then, mamma, heard them say,
''Dear Alice. this is home"
And then I woke mamma, now say
What all my dream might be;
If angels come for Alice Gray.
Won't angels come for me-

Domos aud minarets and towers
Turrets which can kiss the sky,
Grottoes cool, and leafy bowers
Clad in buds that never die,
These. and beauties twice 80 fair,
Deck my castles in the air.
Flecks of clouds, all bright and golden,
Hover round their shadowy walls;
Strains and voices. sweet and olden,
Echo through those spectral halls.
Many an angel fingers where
Float my castles in the air.

Ger the gl"rirs in the West,
And my restless spirits wander
Far and wide In search of rest,
Angels whisper. See, Ills there,
In yon castles in The air"

And their beauties fain would clasp.
Neither more distinct nor clearer,
Ever they elude my grasp.
AND turn in sad despair
From my castles in the air.

POETRY.
BITE BIGGER, BILLY"

A friend l met the other day
Said to me, ''Do you know
The tale of Crossing-sweeper Bill
And his companion Joe? ?"
81 do not but please tell it me,
And 1 win gladly hear F"
And while he told it, in his eyes
I marked the rising tear.
[ need not say that Bill and Joe
Were miserably poor
That many hardships they were forced
To suffer and endure.
Joe's father, for some wicked deed,
Was sent across the sea,
And his heart-broken mother died
In wretched poverty.
BiIIs mother died when he was born
His father ran away
And met his death, SO it was said,
In some wild drunken fray.
So neither knew fathers care,
A mothers tender smile,
And neither had sisters love
Their sorrows to beguile.
They could not claim single friend
Beneath the wide spread sky,
But to each other they were bound
By poverty's strong tie.
Though poor, they were too proud to beg,
Too upright, far, to steal,
And gladly they would sweep and clean
To gain an honest meal,
But, sad to say, the only food
They often had to eat,
Was scraps of bread and broken fruit
They picked up from the street.
Poor boys they often made their bed
In stair or archwaw dark,
And sometimes through the summer
nights
Slept in st. James's Park.
1t was a bleak and bitter morn,
Just at the close of March,
And they had slept the night before
Within market arch.
AS very hungry, very cold,
They wandered down the street,
Joe picked an apple from the ground,
And thought, "Why, here's treat!"
cts been little kicked about,
Butsits good one STILL"
And turning to his mate he said,
" What have yo@ picked up. BillY'
81 haven't found single scrap"
Bill mournfullY did say;
''Then, as you are the youngest, Bill,
Here-take and bite away"
The poor boy bit small piece off;
''Ha, that won't do ~ cried Joe;
''Bite bigger. Billy-bigger yet
YOU'RE welcome-tbGt you know ~
A noble lesson this should teach,
Dear children, unto you
Do unto others as you would
That they to you should do.
Give in the name of Him who gave
Ills only Son to die,
That we might pass from sin and deatt
To mansions in the sky.

There is nothing beautiful and good
that dies and is forgotten. An infant, u

live again in the better thought of those
who loved it, play its part, though its

the deepest sea. There is not an angel
added to the hosts of Heaven, but does
its work on earth in those that love it

human creatures could be traced to their

appear; for how much charity, mercy,
purified affection, would be seen to have
their growth in dusty graves.-C Charles

GOOD ADVICE TO DYsPEPTICs If a
wishes to get rid of dyspepsia he must
give his stomach and brains less to do.
twill be of no service to him to follow
any particular regimen-to live on chaff
bread, or any such stuf-to weigh his
food, etc, SO long as the brain is in a con
slant state of excitement Let that have
proper rest, and the stomach will per
form its functions. But if he pass four
teen or fifteen hours day in his count
ing room, and take no exercise, his stom-
ach will inevitably become paralyzed, and

It IS the brain that is the primary cause
Give that delicate organ somerset. Leave
your business behind you when you go
your home. Do not sit down to your
dinner with your brows knit, and your
mind absorbed in casting up interest ac

sleep. Take more or less exercise in the
open air every day. Allow yourself some
innocent recreation. Eat moderately Y,
slowly, and ofwhat you please, provided
it be not the shovel and tongs Ifany par
tlcular dish disagrees with you, however,
never touch it, or look at 1t. Do not

been admitted that cattle, after having
been transported great distance in cars,
are not in a condition, on reaching the

food, and that the meat of such cattle is
positively unwholesome yet, notwith

gans to explain away Haight's contemplate con-

only resulted in confirming the frst impressions
OF that affair. 1t is beyond all doubt now that
Governor Haight did erect that ~ monument with
the States money, and that he caused an in

tainly suggested the inference that the monu-

was coarse and ignoble thing to do, and a
small and contemplate thing. 1t betrayed the
