IFIsHOULD DIE TONIGHT.

BYH.H.
If should die tonight,
My friends would look upon my quiet face.
Before they laid it in lis quiet resting place,
And deem THAT death had left it almost fair,
Andlaying snow-white flowers against my hair,
Would smooth 1t down with fearful tenderness,
And fold my hand with lingering caress-
Poor hands so empty and so cold tonight!
II I should die tonight,
My friends would call to mind with loving thought
Some kindly deed the icy hand had wrought.
Some gentle word the frozen lips had said:
TIE memory of my selfishness and pride,
My hasty words would all be put aside,
And so should be loved and mourned tonight
II should die tonight,
Even hearts estranged would burn once more to
me, 1'fff .tit ai i
Recalling other days remorsefully:
The eyes that chill me with arrested glance
Would look upon me as of yore, per chance,
And soften in the old familiar way
For who could war with dumb, unconcious clay
SO might I rest forgiven Of all tonight.
Oh, friends, pray tonight A& .
Keep notyour kisses for my dead cold brow!
Think gently Of mel am travel worn;
My faltering feet are pierced with many thorn,
Forgive, oh, hearts estranged forgive. pleadt
When dreamless rest is mine shall not need
The tenderness for which long tonight.

The Rev. John Miller, whom the Pres by
terry in New Jersey has declared guilty Of
heresy, was clerical bette noir Of Stonewall
Jackson, who was professor in the Military
Institute while Mr.. Miller lived and preached
in Rockbridge. After Mr.. Miller's marriage
to the divorced wife of Ex-Governor Thomas,
Of Maryland, which Jackson believed for
hidden by Scripture, he could never hear
him preach, aud several times when Dr..
White had invited Mr.. Miller to preach for
him in Lexington, jackson, who had gone to
church not knowing Of. the change, would
get up and go OUT. The stories Of Mr.. Mil
er's eccentricities are numerous, but not
more so than the stories Of his genius. When
Mr.. Miller entered the Southern army, in
which he was brave soldier, he tried to get
up brigade, but Jackson, it is said, used his
influence to prevent it, or in any event to
have him attached to his command.

ing, will sustain the Southern policy of Presi-
