THE FoRaET-mE-NoT.

Mark the forget-me-not by yon brookside;
Its root the mud, its stem the waters hide,
Ita blossoms seek the sky.
so though thy feet be rooted In earth's slme,
Raise thou thy head above the waves Of time
Look up on high
See how the blossoms, earthward bent awhile,
Turn "a they ope TO meet the suns bright smile,
And as they upward gaze,
First flush with pink, then mirror heavens blue
And every now'ret bears Of sunny hue
crown OF rays.
thou whose thoughts ixed on this worlds toys
Look up 10 him from whom are all thy Joys.
The beatihc sight
win change thee III the human grow divine
And at the last upon thy brow shall shine
A crown Of light Sunday Adg1fins.

The ark of God was never taken until
abandoned by its earthly defenders. In
captivity its sanctity was sufficient to save
il from insult, and TO lay the hostile fiend
PROSTATE on the threshold of his own tenn.
pie. The real security of Christianity is to
be found in its benevolent morality, in its
exquisite adaptation to the human heart, in
the facility with which its scheme accom-.
modates itself to the capacity of every
human intellect, in the consolation which it
bears to the house of mourning, in the light
with which it brightens the great mystery
of the grave.

The Indifference Of Butter and Cheese makers to the

A New York Ghost.

1t seems impossible for civilization.
refinement, intelligence. education or
religion to eradicate entirely from the
human mind The superstiiiuus belief
in The existence Of ghosts; the belief
rather that spirits if they choose TO
do so, can make themselves visible to
persons. We hear of these restless
