In the City of the Sea.

O high-set lion of sweet Saint Mark,
There are seas to the left and seas to the
right,
Front and aback there is nothing but flood,
Nothing but pillows and nothing but night,
And white-blown caps that are tossed and
curled.
City afoat, thou art surely an ark,
And here about US are beasts in stud
Creatures and beasts that come and go,
Enough and wicked enough / know
To populate OR devour world.
Sphinx-hke lion, art prophet or what?
Nay, Noah or prophet art thou, Saint Mark
But King of the desert or slave of the seu
Whatever thou art or what shall be,
What thou art now or what art not,
In city at sea, in ark or bark,
Lead us and land us on some sweet Shore,
Some new-washed summit, where olives are
And never the visage of sorrow is seen,
For ever and ever and evermore.
Lead us and land ms, oh that were best,
To the Isles of the Blest, by the Isles Of
Greece, 81
And on and beyond where the great moon s
face
Bends low and large to the golden grain
The whole year through and death nor pain
Nor any hard thought has name OF place
To the land of olives, the land of peace,
To the land of love, to the land of rest.
Lead us and land us, for that were best,
A home on the seas were never home.
Floating in floods of salt sea-foam
And seeking for what? For the Golden
Fleece,
For the land of Giants, the sea-lost moon,
Gates Of He'll or of Hercules,
Or the land of eternal afternoon?
O, wrinkled old lion that tops Saint Mark,
Lo! here are the doves. this is the ark.
But where is the olive and where is the peace,
Where is the land and where is the rest?

A Sensible Will.

The will of John Wyatt, G. B., Sur
geant- Major of the Coldstream Guards,
who died in April last, has just been
proved. The testator made some SEN
sible requests in regard to his funeral.
He desires to be buried in the full
dress uniform of his regiment, in which
he had passed the best part of an event
full life, and that the Bible given to
him by his wife may be buried with
him; that the horses used at the funeral
may not be decorated in any manner
that the hired attendants may not wear
any hat bands Or scarfs; that each per-
son attending the funeral may wear
only black band of medium width
Grape for relations and cloth for friends
his hat, black gloves and a
white rose Or camellia, or other white
flower in the buttonhole of his coat, as
he wished the ceremony to be as free
as possible from all gloomy associations,
and to be considered more as an oc-
casion of rejoicing than mourning, in
accordance with Holy Scripture,
especially as he desired that no descrip-
ton of widows cap or any Grape on
her dresses may be worn by his wife, or
any particle of Grape on the clothes OF
any of his relations. illustrated Lon

An Awful Chambers in Eng
land.
From the London Sanitary Record

The report of the Veterinary Depart
ment of the Privy Council Office shows
that glanders increases every year, and
further confesses that the official re,
turns are far from giving true indica-
ton of the number of cases. In Lon
don it is very widely spread, and some
of the Durham collier1es seem to have
suffered frightfully. On one of them a
miner has succumbed to the disease,
having been inoculated by washing his
hands in cistern at which an affected
animal had drunk. If the disease be
allowed to continue unchecked, we
shall certainly hear of the loss of more
