Why should our tears in sorrow flow
When God recalls his own,
And bids them leave a world of wo,
For an immortal crown?
Is not cen death a gain to those
Whose life to God was given:
Gladly to earth their eyes they close,
TO open them in heaven.
Their tolls are past, their work is done,
Aud they arc fully blcst;
They fought the fight, the vic'ry won,
And entcr'd into rest.
Then let our sorrows cease to flow;
God has recalrd his own;
But let our hearts, in every wo,
Still say,-Thy will be done.

SPECuLATIONs AND OPINIONS IN THE CITY.

The rumor OF the death OF Mr.. 0'Kely, the HER
AID Commissioner in Cuba, was the subject OF con-
tlnual comment yesterday in the city, At the no.
tells and public places OF resort the startling news
was very freely discussed, and the opinion was uni
versal that. If true the perpetrators OF the outrage
upon the progress and civilization OF the age should
be held to strict account by
BOTH THE AMERICAN AND BRITISH GOVERNMENTS.
There is q general sentiment of admiration at the
gallant manner in which Mr. 0'Key has performed
his perilous duties, and 1t Is said that, whether v-
Ing or dead, his work on the island cannot fail TO
be deeply Injurious to Spanish rule.
THE FEELING OF SYMPATHY
that has been extended by the American people 10
the struggling Republic of Spain Is greatly weak
ened by the news OF the dastardy action OF the
Spanish authorities in Cuba, and but little hope Is
entertained that a republic which could permit
such an atrocty as has been perpetrated upon Mr.
O'Kelly can long contend against the fierce oppo-
sition which is being brought to bear upon 1t by Its
numerous opponents The people In the city yes
terday stated that they were completely at loss

DR.. Inglis, OF Brooklyn, said there was but little
doubt that the hospitality OF New York would be
fully equal to the exigencies OF the occasion. This
was not union OF churches, but an alliance Of
Christians. No church was represented in the Al
lance and, therefore, no church was compromised
by 1t. The basis on which the members were al
he'd was a somewhat broad one. 1t embraced all
who held evangelical principles. He believed in

personages Is Gregory XVI, who died in 1885, aged
eighty years, eight months and twelve days. Then
