There's beautiful song on the slumberous air.
That drifts through the valley of dreams;
1t comes from the cline were the lOses were,
And tuneful heart, anJt light brown hair
That waved in the mOistening breeze
Soft eyes of azure and eyes of brown,
md snow white foreheads are there;
gIim mering Cross and a giittering Crown,
A thorny bed and cough Of down,
! Lost hopes and leaflets of prayer.
A breath Of spring in the breezy woods,
Sweet waits from the quivering pines
Blue violet eyes beneath green hoods,
a babbie Of erook1ets. scent of buds -s -
Bird-WarbleS and mbering vines.
A rosy wreath and dimPIed hand,
ring and sighted VOW
Three golden links of b broken band,
A tiny track on the snOw-white sand,
A tear. and q siniess brow.
There's tincture of GRIFFIN the beautiful song,

And loneliness felt in the festive throng
Sinks down on the soul as It trembles along

CELEBRATIONS IN THE CHURCHES

The church services yesterday were among the
most impressive exercises Of the day. All sects
and religions joined in the service OF Thanksgiving,
and Jew and Gentle acknowledged by devotion
and prayer the beautiful lesson OF the day and ac
cepted as part OF their own creed this genial relic
OF old Puritanlsm. The Greek, the Armenian, the
French, the Protestant ana the Catholic Churches
in our midst were all one in the observance of the
only bit Of national religion that the United States
admits into her polity, and in church, cathedral
and synagogue the preacher, the priest and the
rabbi, In English and Latin and Hebraic, offered up
thanksgiving to the one God OF all sects in obedi-
ence to the call OF the nations President.
At Calvary church, on Fourth avenue and
Twenty-frst street, services were conducted by
Bishop Clark, OF Rhode Island DR.. Verren preached
at the French Church du st. Esprit, and at the
Jewish temples Ahawath Chesed, Bnai Jeshnrun
and Rodolph Sholom similar services were carried

The new Cathedral was thrown open in honor OF
Thanksgiving yesterday, and from morning till

this grand monument OF piety and open-handed
munincence grows on the SIGHT it seems ever to
become more ana more beautiful. 1t Is now what

THE BITTER AND THE SWEET.
The eve OF Thanksgiving Day is too apt 10 be
saddened with regretful memories after the exu-
berauce OF Joy ana gratitude Is past. Then we
ponder on other days and dream OF hearts that
have been laid in the dust; but the steadfast pur-
pose Of life, the noble exclusion OF weakness which
should form every mans ideal can still hold the
ascendency, and these moments are rich In their
golden lessons Of the past. The loss and vacancy
OF death and failure make stronger the VIII that
will press us forward to the accompaniment Of
tangible gain.
There is no dock, however watched and tended,
But dead lamb is there;
There is household, howsoe 'er defended,
Hut hath one vacant chair.
Yesterdays national memories were both sour
and sweet, mournfu and happy. Great, good and
noble men have died within the year; one at this
moment is the verge OF the abyss OF dissolution
whose loss will be echoed In sOrrowlul tones
throughout the world. Another appalling calamity
like that OF Chicago has visited us with its dreaded
devastation and ruin. But peace, comfort, pros
perity, honor and industry have characterized the
general condition OF the country, and little more
could be asked. The pnans Of the people that
ascendcd yesterday must assuredly have come
from full hearts and willing lips.

THE OBSERVANCE IN BROOKLYN,

The oriental bird was elevated In Brooklyn yes
terday, and sage and timely remarks upon the
component parts Of stuffing were 10 be heard
upon all sides. The drumsticks OF the turkey and
the drumsticks Of bands OF ragamuflins ana tar
geleers each lent their share to the measure OF
jollity which went to make up the general observ-
ance of the occasion. A bright sunlight, clear,
bracing atmosphere; gayly dressed people, Of all
ages, sexes and conditions, cheerful expression
upon every iace bright white window blinds
snowy curtains, the shri whistle OF the fe joyous
shouts of Juveniles happy greetings OF family folks,
cheerful words and crumbs Of spiritual comfort
IRON the pastors, all went towards making the at
mospherc one OF very genuine thanksgiving In
Brooklyn. Everything passed on according to
programme and everybody appeared well fed and
satisfied with the result II there was an
exception to the rule it was found among
the unfortunate inmates OF the County Hospital,
Almshouse, Lunatic Asylum and Nursery. Owing to
the economical inclinatons Of the Board OF COM
missioners OF Charities this year no provision was
made for feeding these institutions on turkey ami

inmates have declared their intention TO change

Thanksgiving proved a bright day in the history
OF the children placed under the fostering care OF
this institution, located on Thirtieth street. be-
tween Madison and Fourth avenues. and those OF
Industrial schools Nos. 1, and T. associated with
them in the festivities and exercises OF the occ-
sicp. During the morning the children OF
the industrial schools mentioned gathered at
theiF respective houses and marched to the

could be made available the dormito,ieS and busi-
ness offlees being vacated for that purpose. The
dinner took place at half-past one, and 400 chill

The celebration at the institutions, public and

carnai nature, and the plenitude OF good eating
was. to say the least, astonishing. The frendless
the homeless the crippled, the halt, the blInd the
sick, the imprisoned-all seemed to have been pro-
vidcd with good cheer, and, as will be seen by the
following accounts, the number ofhearts made glad
by the kind hand OF benevolence certainly very

On Governors IsIa nd.

There was no celebration whatever on Governors
Island. Many persons went down to the barge
ONCE to cross over and the evening drill but it
was announced that none would take place. The
only inhabitants OF the island at present consist
OF the Permanent company, commanded by Major
Blunt. The dinner yesterday tor the soldiers con-
sisted OF roast beef which is the usual dinner on
thursdays. The only manner in which IL may be
said that the day was observed was that passes
were granted to the men not on duty to visit the
CITY.
