SEGOTLA AND MADRID.

1t sings to me In sunshine,
1t whispers all night long;
My heart-ache like an echo
Reapeats the wistful song;
Only quaint old love-lilt,
Wherein my life lies hid;
"My body is in Segovia,
But my soul is in Madrid"
I dream and wake and wonder,
For dream and day are one;
Alight with vanished faces,
And days forever done.
They smile and shine around me,
As long as they did,
For my body is in'Segovia,
But my soul is in Madrid. .
Through inland hills and forests
1 hear the ocean breeze,
The creak of straining cordage,
The rush of mighty seas,
The lift Of angry pillows
Through which a swift keel slid,
For my body is in Segovia,
But my soul isin Madrid.
Oh, fair-haired little darlings,
Who bore my heart away,
A wide and woeful ocean
Between us roars to-day;
Yet l am close beside you,
Though time and space forbid;
My body is in Segovia,
But my soul lin Madrid.
If 1 were once in Heaven,
There would be no more sea;
My heart would cease to wander,
NV sorrows cease to be;
Ny sad eyes sleep forever,
In dust and daisies hid,
And my body leave Segovia-
Would my soul forget Madride

Our idea of the hard times is, that
too many spend money while too
few earn it; and that too much is
uselcssly wasted that ought to be
made productive; we know too
much of politics, spend too much
time and money on politicians, and
know too little about POLITICAL

The yellow fever has assumed
the dimensions of a plague in the
cities of New Orleans, Memphis
and Grenada, and is spreading to
other points. The northern cities
are sending large sums of money
to aid the afflicted people of the
infected districts, but nurses and
physicians are wanted most. The
fever attacks old and young, white
and black, and the death rate is
larger than in former years of the
epidemic.

SUDDEN Changes.

The proprietors OF Downs ELIXIR
frequently hear it remarked by those
not in the trade, that cough medicines
do not sell much during the summer
months. This is . mistaken idea.
The sudden changes to which this eli
mate is subject at all seasons of the
year, renders it necessary to always
have some reliable cough remedy at
hand. Downs ELIXIR is sure cure
for Coughs, Colds and Whooping
Cough, and all Lung Diseases, when
taken i'll season, and one dose, we have
no doubt, has many times prevented
consumption and death. The best
certificate that can be given for any
medicine is daily accorded to Downs
ELIXIR in the fact that it has survived
:he storms and tempests of nearly half
a century, and is to-day the most pop
ular with those who have known it
longest. 1t has gained this great IA
vor with the public entirely on its own
merits, having had less advertising
done for 1t in the whole time than is
done for some medicines in single
year. For sale everywhere.

IN MEMORIAM.

Entered into rest. on Thursday, July lS
1873, at Falmouth. Me-. SARAH ELLES beloved
years
In the departure of this estimable person
a deep sense Of bereavement has fallen up
on many hearts, even outside the immedi-
ate circle of family relationship. Her i'll
ness continued through long weary months
of pain and, indeed, for years she had been
deprived of any measure ofvigorous health.
The suferings which she was appointed to
bear were at times extreme; yet, through
them all, she manifested the power of
christian endurance and strong christian
faith-the stay and the comfort alike of her
self and the loving friends who ministered
to her needs.
In the circle of the active workers of
Christ Church her departure must long be
felt,-for from the first starting of the Mis-
sion, it enlisted her earnest sympathies and
her constant exertion. So long as her bodily
strength lasted she labored for its success
and SO long as her mental powers were I'M
clouded, she prayed for GODS blessing on
4 he work. 1t was before the Altar of tn It
little Church that she knelt in the sacred
rite of Confrmation-confessing Christ be-
fore men-ratifying and confirming her
Baptismal VOW, and, as we truly believe, re-
ceiving in answer to faithful Prayer, mea-
sure of the Holy Spirit of GOD, in which
she should increase more and more even
unto His everlasting Kingdom And among
the last acts in her life was the taking upon
herself, solemnly and prayerfully, the duties
of Sponsor at the Baptism of two of GODS
little ones.
She has passed from the scenes of trial and
suffering in the World to the rest and peace
which remain for the people Of GOD in Para
dise-there to await our Blessed Saviour's
second coming in power and glory. And still
She "being dead yet speaketh" For it is true
that in every pure and upright Christian life
every life which has tu ned TO he Faith and
Love OF the Saviour Tor refuge in the inc oil
sore trial and distress-wo may be able to see
not only sure figure and type but even ar
earnest and pledge of that victory which
overcometh the World" and which, at the
last, is to be the reward and the crown o
every faithful disciple of the Master.-And sc
IL it also true that by the outgoing influence
and memory of that life the World is made
better, holier and more tit to receive the
abiding presence Of the promised Spirit o.
GOD. L. A. A.
