.sTHlS Is DEATH.v
By ROSWELL RICE.

Rear my pillow dearest husband;
Fainter grows my dying breath
Waning pulse, and shadows passing,
Prove to me this scene is Death! -
Cheer thy heart my mourning partner,
Let me clasp thy hand once more;
Hand that ever has sustained me
Through the chcckered scenes of yorc.
when our Jesus, and our father,
Shall declare our spirits one,
Well surround their throne eternal;
Reared by Gods Almighty Son.
Strange reflections fill my vision,
Ger past years of JOY and pain;
But leave them, long to slumber
In their past oblivious reign.
''Yet the cheerful dreams of fancy,
When you chose me for your bride,
Filled my heart with JOY triumphant
In the dawn of woman's pride!
Dreams of thee were full of glory,
Sweetly cheered my bounding heart!
But, alas! my bitter anguish
When I knew that we must part.
81 must die! yet Christ has promised
TO console thee mid thy tears!
He'll be closer than brother,
evil drive away thy fears.
There's no darkness DER the portal,
Leading to the land OF rest;
Christ my Saviour is immortal
He will wait me to the blest.
Bring our offspring to my bedside,
Let them my last blessing keep
All they're sleeping do not wake them
Let them rest before they weep.
Oft remind them of their mother;
Bless them for me when they wake;
Guide them safe to Jordan's River,
Treat them kindly for my sake"

Taking off his boots, he crept noiseless'
ly to the window and peered out, but he
could see nothing.
Then creeping to the washstand he laid
his money-belt in the drawer and closed
it.
He then threw himself on the bed, and
once more waited.
After an hour had apparently gone by,
Mr.. Spencer threw off his coat and vest
tumbIed up the bed, hobbled to the door,
unlocked it, and stepped out into the
hall. This was all in accordance with
Carries plan.
Landlord laudlordw he shouted.
He then went back into the room and
noiselessly threw up the window, all the
time shouting for the landlord.
That worthy came flying up the stairs,
and, late as it was, he was still dressed.
ooh, landlord" gasped Mr.. Spencer,
rushing toward him, II have been
robbedl my money is gone p
"Gone!' echoed the landlord, in dis
may.
'Who could have stolen itp' groane,l
Dir. Spencer. II had five thousand dol
lars in belt, and it is gone-stolen !"
The landlord lit the candle and looked
all around, chagrin depicted on every
feature.
"Why don't you wake your daughter,
sir?" he questioned.
Mr.. Spencer hurried to her bed;
"Carrie, Carriep' p' he called, but no
answer came; and the landlord, drawing
near with the light, saw the dummy, and
cried
"Why, man, the girl isn't there"
"What !" gasped Mr.. Spencer "Oh,
see it all The wicked girl has robbed
me while I slept, and run off to meet her
lover, from whom l was taking her"
He ran to the window, followed by the
landlord.

We agree perfectly with the Le5a
non Herald In It's estimation Of the
speech OF Hon. Ben. Hill upon am
nesty. We do not sec how he could
have sand less, and there was little
use of his saying more. His Ian
guage, every fact and word of H.
was perfectly fitting and entirely
justified by Blaine's onslaught, and
the truths he told were as uuan-
swerable as history, and completely
and Overwhelmingly conclusive.
Blaine was not only demolished,
but the things he said were dis
proved and the sentiments he gave
birth TO were shown up in their
proper light and Invested OF any
power TO inhame Northern minds.
Papers and people even where, North
and South, condemn Blaine and
either approve or Justify Hill We
have failed To see any evidences OF
the rcbuke hin was 10 receive from
his co.adjutors, but We hare seen
rebuke and ridiculc and shame
hcaped upon the "Hon. hyena from
Maine" from all sources. Blaine
would ride into the presidency over
a Manassas battlefield rather than
not, but he mistook the shoot and
killed himself eHectualiy.
