that Jay Gould, the New York stock operator,
is financially embarrassed and that loan Of his
of $780, 900 was thrown out of bank on Tuesday
in consequence Of the himsy nature Of his col
IateraIs, which had evidently been taken from
the bottom of his box. The fall in Granger
stocks is said to have pinched him. Gould
virtually holds all Of the Union Pacific stock,

Your darling, yorr dear little Nta is dead,
But her spirit still lives, and to Jesus has fed
You heard her sweet voice abort week ago,
In musical tones so soft and go low;
You saw her fit by, with rare, gentle grace.
The rose bloom fresh on her dear little face
The sunbeams lighted her bright golden hair.
AS you kisssd from her brow 30 playful and fair,
smile and tear, alternately given,
Like gifts stolen from Angels In Heaven.
Alas when fondest hopes beat high in your hearts
The Angel of Death implanted his dart,
And wrapped in his train sweet Nita. 50 fair,
To bear her above flower too for eaths thorny
sod,
But fitted to live an bloom in the garden Of God.
Fond parents, your tears ard sorrows restrain,
For you know that your loss your little sweets gain;
Let hor rest in that home her spirit has won
And Faith whisper sweetly. 20 God, Thy viii be

A PRAYER.

It is not always best to walk
In lightsome ways
Through life's long journey, nor to live
1njoy always.
Sometimes, perchs nee, too much Of light
Might blind our eyes,
And hide the radiant stars that shine
In midnight skies.
After the darkest hour" of night
Bright day doth come,
And oft the weariest path doth lead
Us nearer home.
o Lo,d, we know Thou leadest
Through devious ways
Unto the self Same land of peace
And endless praise.
Thou knowest best our feeble frames.
And Thou wilt send
No cross TOO hard for to bear
Zen 10 the end.
Then only keep us, LORD We pray,
At peace within,
Turn Thou our failing steps away
From paths of ain
Teach to know Thy wondIous 1--we,
And trust to Thee;
Take us to be ThiLe own for all
Esernity.
