THERE COMES A TINE.

There comes time when we grow old,
And like a sunset down the sea,
Slope gradual, and the night wind cold
Comes whispering sad and chillingly ::
And locks are gray
AS winters day,
And eyes of Saddest blue behold
The leaves all weary drift away,
And lips of faded coral say
''There comes a time when We grow old.
There comes time when joyous hearts,
Which leap as leaps the laughing main,
Are dead to all save memory,
As prisoner in his dungeon chain ;
And dawn of day,
Hath passed away,
The moon hath into darkness rolled.
And by the embers wan and gray,
| hear a voice in whisper say
There comes a time whenwe grow old.
There comes a time when manhoods 5
prime
Is shrouded in the midst of years
And beauty fading like dream,
Hath passed away in silent tears
And then, how dark
But, oh, the spark
That kindled youth to hues OF gold.
Still burns with clear and steady ray
And fond affections, lingering say
There comes atimc when we grow old.
There comes time when ughing spring
And golden summer ceases to be;
And we put on the autumn robe,
TO tread the last declivity
But now the slope
With rosy hope.
Beyond the sunset we behold,
Another dawn with fairer light;
Whilethey whispered through thenlght,
''There's time when we grow old.

FREE LovE-A Boston girl, who
had more than once during the contin-
uance Of long engagement shocked
her lover, pious burgher Of the
Quaker City, by her declamations in
favor Offree love, completely disgusted
him when the time for the marriage
drew near, by refusing to submit TO tho
performance of the ceremony, and offer
ing herself without the sanction Of the
religious rite or legal authority. In
vain he demonstrated. She professed
herself ready to undergo all the pains
and pleasueres Of the marriage state, but
submit to the tying Of the nuptial knot
she would not. And when he demand
ed her reasons for her extraordinary
dislike to the idea Of clerical or magis-
terial Intervention she claimed that
were she bound irrevocably TO him he
would take no pains TO please her, but
were she free to leave him at any time
her happinpness would be his chief
thought 10 provide for, and then, too,
she wished 10 bestOw her affections on
another man if at any time she should
cease to love him. At this candid
avowal Of her versatile prociiviiies he
professed to consider the engagement
broken, bnt this she would not allow,
and has entered complaint against
him for breach Of promise Of marriage.
The case promises interesting develop
ments at its trial, as, Of course. the
defense will be, as above, that "Barkis
is willin'," but the lady not.

The time came for the devil to claim his
own, and he consequently appeared.
The first question the man asked was
concerning theology, to which it caused
the devil no trouble to reply. The sec
