SIR Henry Lytton Bulwer, whose death is
announced, was the elder brother of Lord
Lytton, the well-known novelist and play
wright, and was diplomatist and author.
He has represented his Government in many
important capacities. He was in early life a
member of the House of Commons, and serv-
ed also in a diplomatic capacity at different
capitals. In 1843 he was sent to Madrid,
where he distinguished himself by negotia-
ting the treaty between Spain and Morocco,
and afterward secured the enmity of Narvae,
by his protests against the arbitrary course of
that official. The latter sent him his pass
ports, and forced him to quit Spain. The
English Government marked its sense of the
indignity by knighting Mr.. Bulwer, and de-
clining to name his successor, and after two
years, during which no minister was accredit-
ed to Spain, the amende honorable was made
on the part of the Spanish Government. He
afterward was appointed Minister to the Uni
ted States, and enjoyed considerable popular
ity here. The famous Bulwer-C Clayton treaty
was, in great measure, his work. He held
other important positions in the political
world, and is the author of several books of
considerable merit In 184S the deceased
married daughter of the late Lord Cowley.

LONELINESS ON THE INCREAsE.-A marked
increase of female loveliness is Che eye-delight-
ing result of the immense popularity which
HAGAN's MAGNOLIA BALM has obtained among
the ladies of America. Compilations radiant
with snowy purity and tinged with the roseate
hue OF health are commonly met with when
ever it is used. For the sallow and unwhole-
some appearance of the face and neck, which
utterly counterbalances the effect of any per-
sonal attraction the owner may possess, it sub
stitutes that clear, pearl-like complexion which
is such a transcendant charm in woman, and
renders the toughest skin as soft as Genoa vel
vet. No one is more astouished than the per-
son using it at the marvellous transformation
which it effects in these particulars.

Though tangled hard lfe's knot may be
And wearily we rue it,
The silent touch of Father Time
Some day will sure undo 1t.
Then, darling, wait;
Nothing is late
In the light that shines forever.
We faint at heart, friend is gone;
We weep, for grave is filling;
We trembe at sorrows on every side,
At the myriad ways of killing
Yet, after all,
Ha sparrow fall,
Our Lord keepeth count forever
He keepeth count. We come wego
We speculate, toll, and falter:
But the measure to each, Of veal or woe,
G0d only can give or alter
Then why not say.
'Thy will be done foreyer!'
Why not take life with cheerful trust,
With faith in the strength of weakneJs,
Dolng the best we can to walk
With courage, yet with meekness,
Lifting the face
To catch Gods grace,
That lights the soul forever?
For ever and ever, my darling, yes.
Goodness and love are undying;
Only the troubles and cares Of earth
Are sure in the end to 60 flying.
Fleeting as bubbles
Are cares and troubles,
And 'now" is a spreck that tricks ever.
