AS sat on the mountain on horseback
.ozinC upon it for the last time the whole
sEcene entered too deeply into my heart TO be
s.rgottan. | am sure it will never fade
.tyr3ed my horses head and left il, or rather
IN q deeper sense, | carried it away, rich
accession Of the soul forever - Extract from.
Bsk0p NaTOin' last letter from the Holy Land.
The sands are all spent in his measure of
time;
10 has gone to his rest in the flush of his
prime;
From Jerusalem below to the city on high,
From the SORROWS Of earth TO the bliss Of the
sky.
What soldier was he in the might of his
Lord,
With his armor all on and his militant sword
And the souls he has won will be stars that
In his crown at that day when his Lord shall
return.
Mourn we not for the soldier whose battle is
Who has heard from his lips the sweet plaudit
WELL DONEW
One moment in pain with his fast failing
breath,
The next he had walked through the valley
CT death;
All its evil had fed, for his Master had trod
With the thorns on his brow, all the depths
of that road;
Fen the shallow of death" was all bright
with the light
Of unspeakable glory that burst on his sight
Safe, safe with his Lord in those mansions of
rest,
Where the absence of sin is the bliss of the
blest;
Where both pastor and people are welcome as
one,
ByJesus himself, sin the midst of the throne"
No more in the flesh shall his feet press the
sod
Of a land made immortal by visions of God;
For the eye that erst kindled on Salem of old
Now sees the new Salem rich glOries unfold,
And the soul often sad in this valley of tears
Is now thrilled with the rapture of measure
less years.

had come in to get some of his good advice.
The lawyer said: GA quarrel with a
neghbor, perhaps?"
No" the farmer replied, 81 never quar-
relied with any one"
"AbOut some land, then Z"
The farmer replied he had all the land he
wanted.
Then the lawyer took a slip Of paper, and.
after writing therein, folded it end gave it
to the farmer, charging halt-a-crOWn. The
farmer put iJn his pocket and went home
While eating his supper, one of his boys
came to him, asking what they should do
with the hay, 1t was in prime order to put
into the barn. 1t was in as good place az
mig ht be in the field. The farmer hesitated.
1t was Saturday night; the weather was
fine: the men had laoored hard all the week
and gone to rest. He thought of the slip of
paper, and drew it out, saying."l have got
some advice here" and read, 'Never put
to-day"
Call out the men, boys, and girls, and
have every load of that hay into the barn
before we get into our BEDS
They did so Before Monday morning
came, the wind changed and blew up a
heavy rain, washing much of the hay OF an
adjoining farm into the river running
through their fields; what remained was
nearly ruined.
The next Autumn the farmer took a pair
Offat chickens to the lawyer, and did SO
many successive years, telling him that his
advice had saved him hundreds of pounds.
If prom ptneSs in attending to the affairs
Oftime and sense, which are passing away
with the using OF them, will bring much
gain, of how much more infinite impor-
lance is it that we should attend at once,
without a moments delay, to the salvation
Ct the soul, which is OF infinite value, be-
youd estimation, that parJ which lives for
ever The present is the only movement
we are sure Of "Behold, now is the ac
cepled time; behold, now is the day OF sal
Vation."
