Home.

When daily tasks are done and tired hands
Lie still and folded on the resting knee,
When loving thoughts have leave to loose theil
bands
And wander over past and future free;
When visions bright of love and hope fulfilled
Bring weary eyes a spark of olden fire;
One castle fairer than the rest we build,
One blessing more than others we desire;
home, our home. wherein all waiting past
We two may stand together. and alone;
Our patient task-w finished, and at last
Loves perfect blessedness and peace our own
Some little nest of safety and delight,
Guarded by Gods good angel day and night.
We cannot guess if this dear home shall lie
In some green spot embowered by arching trees,
Where bird notes Joined with brook gliding b,
Shall make us music sit at ease;
Or, if amid the cty's busy din
- Is built the nest for which we look and long,
No sound without shall mar the peace within,
The calm of love that time has proved so strong,
Or II, ahl solemn thought this home of ours
Doth lie beyond the worlds confusing noise;
And if the nest be built in Eden bowers
What do we still. but silently rejoice
We have home. but of its happy state
We know not yet. We are content to wait.

Attentlons to old People.

One cold winter morning, when the
sleet froze as it fell, rendering the walk
ing dangerous even to the young and
strong, my attention was drawn towards
a man whose age and infrmity made it
almost impossible for him to get along.
We we're both walking in the same d.
rection, but he was upon the opposite
side of the street. l watched him with
anxiety. fearing every moment that he
would miss his footing.
Presently a beautiful young girl, rich
ly dressed, came down the street. Just
as she was about to pass the old man,
he slipped, and would have fallen, ii
she had not stretched forth her hand to
save him. She stopped few moments
to talk with him, then taking his arm,
turned out of her way and led him
home. What contrast they presented !
The young girl in her elegant attire, and
the aged man in his worn-out garments.
1t was a beautiful picture, an eloquent
sermon upon the respect which the young
owe to the aged.
| afterwards found that the old gentle
man had once held high position, but
through no fault of his own had lost the
whole of his property, and was then
very poor and almost blind. How he
must have priced the kind attention OF
the young girl, now that he was forsaken
by the friends of his more prosperous
days.
Perhaps we all need to be reminded
of the Bible injunction "Thou shalt
rise up before the hoary head, and honor
the face of the old man."

Memory.

Stand on funeral mound,
Far, far from all that love thee:
With a barren heath around
And cypress bower above thee:
And think. while the sad wind frets.
And the night in cold gloom closes,
Of spring, and springs sweet violets,
Of summer. and summers roses.
Sleep where the thunders fly
Across the tossing billow;
Thy canopy the sky,
And the lonely deck thy pillow;
And dream. while the chill sea foam
In mockery dashes DER thee,
Of the cheerful hearth, and the quiet home
And the kiss of her that bore thee.
Watch in the deepest cell
Of the foeman's dungeon tower,
Till hopes most cherished spell
Has lost its cheering power;
And sing. while the gal ing chain
On every still limbisreezes,
Of the huntsman hurrying o'er the plain,
OF the breath of the mountain breezes.
Talk of the minstrel's lutte.
The warriors high endeavor.
When the hOneyed lips are mute.
And the strong arm crushed forever:
Look back to thesummer sun
From the midst of dark December:
Then say to the broken hearted one
lis pleasant to remember"
