On the Death of Rosa KineaId,

Farewell, Rosa. young, sweet Hover.
Rosa, darling, fare thee we'll,
He who lent thee. hath recalled thee,
Back with him. and with His to dwell.
She has gone from among us, the loved
and lost,
From this world OF care and pain;
But weep not, mourn not. stricken
friends,
For her. we shall meet again.
Lonely and sad | feel to-day,
And each ink-drop seems a tear
Wrung from the life-blood Of INV heart
ASI think Of thee, eoasin Ciesr.
But thou art gone from us forever,
From the friends thou loved 80 we'll:
Oh, the anguish OF that parting
None on earth can ever tell.
Then, heart-broken mother, dry thy
tears,
Fond father, weep no more.
Thy loved one has tonight her battle we'll,
And her struggles now are DER.
For | know that she is happy,
Where sin and death can never dwell,
And while Pm here on earth below thee,
Dearest cousin, fare thee well.

%T There are times when life
seems Of little valne. and one of
those seasons came to John last Sun
day. He went to church with new
beaver and a young woman. He
was happy. He seated the dsmsel al
his right hand and placed the hst
upon the left. They rose to sing,
but during the singing one or two
strangers were ushered into the seat,
and this necessitsted change OF po-
sition. The hymn over, John pre-
pared to seat himself, but forgetful Of
the change, sat down deliberately and
decidedly upon the crown Of his
new hat. There was a report like
that of young cannon, the near
audience snickered, and John, with
one look at his young lady, took the
remnants of that hat in his hand aud
skunk out of church.

The Battle Hymn of the Crusade
Ey MRS. EMILY j. EuGBEr.


On the plains of hloodless battle, they
are gathering true and strong,
All the herO-hearted women, who have
wept in silence long,
AT the terrible oneoming, of this Ravefi-
winged wrong.
Now God is leading on.
CHoRUs-Glory, Glory, Hallelujah, &c.
They have sailed forth TO conquer, and
will never beat retreat.
While the banner Of the ruai-fiend Ia
still Haunted on the street,
And his helliSh snares are waiting, for
the all unwary feet.
For God will lead them on.
They will pierce the bending heavens
with united prayers and cries.
Till the stronghOlds shah he shaken and
the foe defeated lies,
Who has slain his many thousands of the
strong ones and the wise.
For God will lead them on.
They have looked 10 laws enforcement,
for tlle help that never came,
Now, God has surely kindled in their
hearts undying flame.
And relying on His spirit, they shall
conquer in His name.
For lie is leading on.
For the future of their dear ones, for
their cOuntry's power and pride,
Onward moved hy hitter memories of
the past. whose pains abide,
They are working. weeping, praying in
their weakness side by side,
For lie is leading on.
Be still, oh tongue of caviler. be strong
oh heart of fear,
Re you not the cloudy pillar that is
ever lowering near,
now you not an ear is open that will
not refuse To hear?
For God is leading on.

curse is swept away,

many Il life long ray.
For Christ is coming near.
al the desert and the wilderness shall !
blossom with the flowers
pf industry and plenty, in this blessed
land of ours,
nd the grace of God unstinted shall |
come down in gentle showers,
For heaven will he begun.

Commissioner Camp back at his old trade, after
so long retirement. On Monday morning
with large force, he opened his batteries upon
the portions OF Main and State streets in the
vicinity of the corner, and speedily Invested
them Of about six inches Of surface mud and

the best thing for the Streets we don't claim
skill enough in that line to determine but, for
the time being, the improvement is very marked

ers for the last several years has been exceed
ingly eontradictory-each one seeming to aim
to undo the work Of his predecessor. First, our
streets are covered to the depth of six or eight
inches with what is claimed to be good gravel,
but which soon proves itself to be unmitigated
mud I; and the next year our heavy road tax is
all needed to cart it OF. As a rule, it would
hardly seem that our streets need raising, for
they are already as high as our sidewalks and
buildings will admit, and when covered with
the proper material, and supplied with good
drainage, will do well enough.
II seems to us that the time has fully come
when sound policy dictates that beginning
should be made in paving or macadamizing our
principal streets specially around the corner

think, does great injustice to the better portion

or seven barrels of liquor were seized and car
red to ncighboring town, which is not true,
as no such quantity of liquor has been in town,
at any one time, for the last four years. 1t
also talks about seeing sights on our last town
meeting day carrying the impression that
liquor was sold on that day at the hotel, which
is not true 1t also states that the larger and
better portion of the Inhabitants OF the town
sustain those who took a leading and active
part in putting down king alcohol. As TO this
last, not ten men in town Of the better class
can be found that approve the course taken
against our hotel keeper II is said, too, that
hard speeches have been made because the
needful could not be obtained. THIS, think
is far from the truth, as not a regret has been
uttered, except by those who are striving TO
get one Of their number appointed agent 10 sell
liquor, which scheme we hope will not pre-
vail, as three-fourths Of the inhabitants are OPP
