A BEAUTIFUL POEM.


The following beautiful poem we find in Rev.
II. N. Powers Christmas sermon, in the ClEca
so P,lpH The author he says is unknown TO
him;
"Thc Master has come over Jordan"
Said Hannah, the mother, one day;
as healing the people who throng Him
With n touch of His finger, they say.
And now / shall carry the children,
Little Rachel, and Samuel, and John;
! shall carry the baby Esther, 80
For the Lord TO look upon" NO
The father looked at her kindly. E,
But he shook his head, and smiled -
Now, who but doting mother
Would think of thing so wilda
If the children were tortured by demons,
Or dying of fever, 'twere well
Or had they the faint of the lcper,
Like many in Israeli
NAY, do not hinder me, Nathan,
| feel such burden of care,
If | carry it to the Master,
Perhaps / shall leave it there.
If He lay His hand on the children,
My heart will be lighter l know,
For n blessing forever and ever
Will follow them as they co.
50 over the hills of Judah,
Along by the vlne-rows green,
With Esther asleep on her bosom,
And Rachel her brothers between;
'Mong the people who hung on His teach ing
Or waited His touch and His word,
Through the rows ofproud Pharisees listening
She pressed to the feet Of the Lord.
Now why shouldst thou hinder the Master
Said Peter, with children like these
'Seest not how from morning till evening
lie teacheth, and healeth disease?'
Then Christ said, FORBID not the children
Permit them to como unto Me-
And He took in His arms little Esther,
And Rachel He set on His knee.
And the heavy heart of the mother
Was lifted all earth care above,
As He laid His hands on the brothers,
And blessed them with tenderest love.
And He said of the babe in His bosom,
''Of such is the kindom of Heaven, -
And strength for all duty and trial.
That hour to her spirit was given.

When you SEQ little fellow-mortal
Without fixed and fearless views,
Hanging on the skirts of others,
Walking in their cast-otf shoes
Bowling low to wealth or favor,
With uncovered abiect head,
Ready to retreat or waver,
Willing to be drawn or led;
Walk yourself with firmer bearing
Throw your moral shoulders back;
Show your spine has nerve and marrow,
Just the thing which he must lack

The Philadelphia Contention has
presented a ticket OF 'ineduallef
strength and excellence. General
Grant, once the tried soldier, now
the tried statesman, is at its head
The Convention IN placing Grant rs
the standard bearer of the party but
followed the dictates of the people Of
the whole country. II was just
tribute to 4 successful ad'ninistra.
| uon that it's leader shoiild be contin'
cd in power.
Henry Wilson is one of,he purest
noblest, and best man OF our coun'
try. lie has an excellent reputation;
is a man Of undoubted ability, and
will add much strength to the ticket,
Mr.. w. is especially popular IN New
England, and among the negroes at
the South, and is also a tower OF
strength among the laboring classes
of the whole country.
The Convention was wise in the sc
lection of standard bearers. Its
platform is the cmbolyment OF all thr
party has done in the past as well as
what ii proposes 10 labor for in the
future. There is now no longer any
uncertainty as to whom the party
and the people will support for the
two highest offices in the gift OF the
nation. Grant and Wilson have al
ready achieved the victory in the
hearts OF the people. II matters not
# the Democracy inlorse Horace
Greeley, or make a straight party
nomination at Baltimore. The VIC
tory will he ours. The people thro'
their delegates assembled, have spok-
en- in no uncertain sound. Now let
the campaign commence. let our
Liberal" friends choose between the
party Of progress and thought and
the party OF known conservatism.
Iowa will roll up the usual major
,ty for the ticket. Those Liberal"
Republicans who have been follow.
ing teachers of false doctrines and
worshiplng false gods, will undoubt.
Nv return to us from whence they
went out.
We commend the ticket to the
country. 1t is deserving the suf
trages OF great and free people.
