FLOW ERS.

Who would wish to live without flow
ers? Where would the poet fly for his
images of beauty if they were to perish
forever? Are they not the emblems of
loveliness and innocenee--the living
types Of all that is pleasing and grace
ful? We compare young lips to the rose,
and the white brow to the radient lily;
the winning eye gathers its glow from
the violet, and a sweet face is like a
breeze kissing its way through bowers.
We hang delicate blossoms on the silken
ringlets Of the bride. and strew her path
with the fragrant bells when she leaves
the church. We place them around the
marble face of the dead in the narrow
coffin, and they become symbols of our
affection--pleasures remembered and
cherished. the more that they can never
return. Still we look to the far-off
spring in other vaileys--to the eternal
summer beyond the grave, when the
flowers which have faded shall again
bloom in starry fields, where no rude
winter can intrude. They come upon
us in spring like the recollections of a
dream, which lowered about us in sleep
peopled with shadowy beauties. and
purple delights, fancy 'broidered
Sweet flowers! that bring before oui
eyes scenes of childhood--faces remem-
bered in youth, when love was O

primroses with our eyes; the sheltered

sweet song of the maiden, the down
cast eye, the spreading blush, the kiss

FROM SUMMER TO SUM TER I.

Mind, like body, shrinks from ex-
citing employment in these whiting days
of fervid June, and the highest matter
of contemplation from which fancy can
derive any stimulation at all is naturally
the most grateful to its languid ener-
gies. For, instead of complicated social
drama or moral sociological illustrations,
here is a very simple little romance,
which, sober in its beginning, and not
particularly gay in any part, is yet of
sufficient sentimental pleasantness for
agreeable and seasonable final effect.
At about this date last summer a gentle
man of Boston named Peverly, who
had lately lost his wife, and coveted
change of scene no less on account of
his bereavement than for the benefit of
his own shattered health. took passage
with his only daughter for Liverpool by
one of the Cunarders for foreign tour.
The ocean was crossed without noticeable
incident, Mr.. Peverly seeming to im-
prove in spirits and strength by the
voyage; but in Il few days after the de-
| barkation in England, and while father
| and daughter were pausing at a hotel
preparatory to starting for one of the
northern counties, the invalid suddenly
suffered a relapse and died of some con-
| gestive attack in a few moments. In the
|
bv her sense of friendless strangeness in
a strange land, the orphaned daughter
took relief from despair In the thought
of carrying the beloved remains imme-
| diately back across the sea to the old
home, and there finding fortitude to
bear her loss in the sympathy of minis
tering kindred. 1t appears, however,
according to the Boston Trdnscript, that
the Liverpool steamers have rigorous
rule against transporting dead bodies
and the distressed and lonely mournel
was consequently obliged to defer hel
piteous purpose until the departure ol
the next vessel from Southampton. Hel

HOUSEKEEPING.

There is no unalloyed happiness in

of housekeeping have their clouds.
Among its dark phases is the constant
query. tsWhat. shall we have for break

around butchers and grocers which is
necessary to keep the Institution rum

Ii is absolutely narrowing to witness
the rapidity with which a crock of

become barren, and clean clothes fresh

A old man sits in worn arm chair,
IN White as snow is his thin, soft hair,
Furrowed his cheek by time and care,
And back and forth it sways; tr ..I.t

Which tells of thoughts Ofthe long gone-by,
For he sits once more meath a cloudless sky.
And in childhood, meriliy plays. ~ I
He rests his cheek on the head of his cane,
And happily smiling dreams oyer again
OF that home, the brook, the meadow. the lane,
Dreams all with vision clear;
Then childhood yields unto manhOod's place,
And he looks once more in the bright, brigir
face, Z AEs.s
And down in the starry eyes he Can trace n
A love remembered and dear.
Then he wakes and sighs; s.It seems but

But tits pleasant 70 think lit o'er. 4 {

long tongue, and keep from telling all

ways into which you get into trouble by
being too communicative. First you
give all the gossips the opportunity OF

NH the oIden time OF 1ife's fair prime,
~ When tile heart bells ring merry chime;
How fair was tire scene mid the hills OF green.
And the shadows lying cool between.
But the morning skies with their gorgeous dyes
Have faded away before our eyes;
And the shadow stray, and the clouds of gray
Betoken the closing OF LIES short day.
Does it all end here in sigh and tear,
The labor and longing of many year.
Oris there CLEAN and sunny beam
OF life beyond this earthly dreimS
Oh, let us pray that glorious ray
May brighten our journey here aiway;
And when life is DER ON the other shore,
May we meet and love forever more!
