Now the shades of night are falling
Ger the waters lark once more,
They are foaming, rising, breaking,
On the far off distant shore;
Oh. the long, long hours of darkness
TO the lonely sufferer there
He Is hoping, dreading, feeling,
All the horrors of despair.
But what is it with the daylight
ROuscs him to hope at last?
That small speck upon the ocean
lsav vessel sailing past; .
win his call for help ere reach them?
win they hear his feeble cry?
They surely, surely will not pass him,
Leave him there alone to die?
No for il is drawing nearer,
Kind hands loose him from the wreck.
Bear him toa place OF safety.
Lay him gently on the deck;
Is he alone to tell the story,
OF the lost ship in her grave?
Only one tell the mouruer
Of the loved ones meath the wave.
Oh the many homes Of SORROW
There is mourning everywhere
Sadness, grief and Interviewing
For the young. the loved and fair;
For the dear ones who lett us,
Here to wander nevernore;
Sadly winters winds are signing,
While the wild waves lash the shore.
Mourners listening to their moaning,
Feign would hush them into rest;
Fancy hears in each low murlnur
Voices OF the lost and best;
But there Is a God above us
Knows the hearts deep agony
Turn to him in thy great sorrow
He will help and pity thee.
When nights curtain 'rouud thee closing
daylight fading in the west
When with loving ones around thee,
Thou shalt have thy dreams of rest;
When the wild, fierce winds of winter,
Bring their terrorS cen to thee,
Spare one prayer for those in danger
Sailors on the stormy sea.

CRATER OF VEsUvIUs. -Most of the tray
elers who have described this crater, agree in
saying that it is from fifteen hundred to two
thousand feet deep and many of them speak
of the possibility of approaching to the bot
tom. All this, to visitor of the mountain
in its present form, would seem utterly at
variance with the truth. You go down, per-
haps, for half mile, pretty rapid descent
over cliffs and yawning chasms, and through
smoke and heated gas. Here you arrive at
the inner crater ; at the hole, for such it
seems, which has been made through the bot
tom of the gigantic vase, and into which Is
inserted the cylindrical tube, that seems to
extend quite down to the lambent flames and
fiery pool af Tartarus. OF the depth of this
you have very imperfect means of judging
and whenever, by favorable action of the
wind or temporary suspension of the smoke
you approach a little nearer and attempt a
more satisfactory examination, heated puff
Of sulphurous gas and smoke drives you back
all but suffocated, to get a breath Of pure air

SHORT STUDY FOR BoYs.-The life of
Charles 0'Conor, the eminent lawyer, shows
what diligence and perseverance will accom-
plish
When eight years old he was an officeboy
and newspaper carrier. His father publish
ed weekly newspaper and Charles, besides
attending in the Office delivered the journal
to subscribers in New York, Brooklyn, and
Jersey City. He used slff to cross the riv-
ers, and frequently would be out all Saturday
night serving his route. 1t is said that he
never missed subscriber.
When seventeen years old he entered law
yers office as an errand boy. He borrowed
law books, took them home, and read them
by the light of a candle far into the night
Several lawyers, noticing the boys industry,
aided him in his studies
When he was twenty-four years old he was
admitted to the bar, and even then it is said
that young o'Conor's legal opinion was worth
more than that of many other lawyers.
But success comes slowly to young law
yer, and it was not until his thirtieth year
that clients recognized the legal learning and
skill of O'Conor. He was very poor, but In
dustry and ability were his capital. lie work
ed hard at the smallest cases, never sighting
any trust, and in time secured tie reputation
of man who would do his best for those eni-
ploying him. To this conscientiousness and
industry he owed his success
