By CELIA TIIAXTER.

By CELIA THAXTER.
We sail toward evenings lonely star,
That trembes in the tender blue;
One single cloud dusky bar
Burnt with dull carmine through and through,
Slow smouldering in the summer sky,
Lies low along the fading west;
How sweet to watch its splendors die,
Wave-cradled thus an wind caressedl
Tee soft breeze fresher leaps the spray
To kiss our cheeks with sudden cheer,
Upon the dark edge of the bay
Lighthouses kinde far and near.
And through the warm deeps of the sky
Steal faint star.clusters, while we rest
In deep reircshment, thou and /,
Wavc.cradled thus, and wind cares sed.
How like a dream are earth, are heaven,
Star beam and darkness, sky and sea;
Thy face, pale in the shadowy even
Thy quiet eyes that gaze on mel
o realize the moments charm,
Thou dearcstl We are at lfe's best,
Folded in Gods cncircling arm
Wavecradled thus and wind -caressed.

but that part of the beach upon which horses
are driven to water, is full of dangerous holes
into which they stumble and in which several
have lately barely escaped drowning.
