THE INTERIOR OF THE EARTH.-A
writer in Scribner's Monthly says {:
We suppose that Professor David
Forbes, Of England, knows as much
about the interior Of the earth as any
man living. In u late lecture he in.
sisted that all the objections brought
by geology, mathematics or astrono.
my against the old theory that the
earth is a molten mass surrounded by
o crust about fifty miles thick, are
quite untenable. He would have Us
believe, while the outar layer of mel
ted matter, just below tho earth's
crust, may be kind of CLASSY Stag,
that not far below this layer, a sala-
mander bent on discovery would fnd
the pure molten metals, of which the
heuviest-gold, platinum, etc.-would
10 ut tho earth's centre. Very likely

Queens Of the Summer.
BY CLIO STANLEY.

Queens of the garden are roses,
BOnny, and fragrant, and bright;
A red rose and white rose are shining,
With splendor Of dew-drnps alight;
Their cool leaves are kissing my eye
Their color is soft on the brow:
I cannot grow dull or unthankful-
The roses are blossoming now!
Queens ofthe green boughs are birdIings,
Hiding their wealth In q nest; ~
Above me, about me, they're flying,
Singing their sweetest and best;
Sad hours grow fullest of comfort,
Blessings come back in throng; -.
While under tile green boughs reposing,
I find the sweet meaning Of song!
Queens by the brookside are:lilies,
Slender, and sanity, aild white; -
I thought, when watched their unfold
ing,
There could be no BONNER sight;
Yetthe ilies-oll, strange contradiction!
Their glory grew dim ina day, !.
When my darling, With tender grace
...- blooming 49,. -.. .....
Saiue elleutiy. WdlhAIiS tuou way
Fair queen of my summer is Jessie ..
Jessie, so tender aud sweet!
The meadow with melody ringeth -.
At sound of her twinkling feet; .
The sunshine of Loves in her presence
1t colors all shadowy things .
Before her the lnoorland grows brighter,
Behind her the valley-land sings
sweeter than breath Of the roses,
Bright as bird OIL the wing
Pure as the sweet-scented lilies,
Awake at The dawning of spring. q
Furer, and brighter, and sWeeter, Il
Is Jessie, the queen Of my heart;% :
And from her, come winter or summer,
I never-no, never will part! -

May crumble into nothingness;

The dear ones seek their Blessed Home,
And we may watch and wait in vain .,

The rose. buds at the easement bloom,
The bird pours forth his cheerful
