THE KING In HIS BEAUTY.

Oh! to be over yonder,
In that land of wonder,
Where the angel voices miugle, and the
angel harpers ring,
10 be free from pain and sorrow,
And the anxious dread Tomorrow,
To rest in light and sunshine in the pres
enco of the King.
Oh! to bo over yosdcr,
My ycarniug heart grows fonder
Of looking to the East, to SEQ the day-star
bring
Some tidings of the waking.
The cloudless, pure day breaking,
My heart in yearning -yearning for tho
coming of the King.
Oh! to be over yondcr,
Alas! | sigh and wonder,
Why clings my poor weak heart to an earth
ly thing.
Each tic Of earth must sever,
And pass away forever;
But there's no more separation in the pres
ence of the King.
Oil to be over yonder,
1Ho iouStOS SToWettl stronger,
When | see the wild doves oleave the air on
rapid wing,
| long for their fleet pinions,
TO reach my Lords dotuinions,
And rest my weary spirit in the presence of
the King.
Oh! to be over yonder,
In that land Of wonder,
Where life, and light, and sunshine, beam
fair on ev'ry thing
Where the day beam is unshaded,
As pure as He who made it
Tho land of cloudless sunshine, where Jesus
is King.
Oh! when shall be dwelling,
Where the angel voices swelling
In triumphant hallelujahs, mako tho vaultod
heavens ring,
Where tho pearly gates are cleaning,
And the morning star is beaming;
Oh! when shall be yonder in tho prescnce
of the King7
Oh! when shall bo yonder7
The longing groweth stronger,
TO join all the praises the redeemed ones
do sing,
Within these heavenly rlaccs,
Where the angels veil their faces,
Ia owe aud alteration 10 the presence Of tho
King.
Oh! soon, soon III be youder,
All lonely as I wander,
Ycarning for the welcome summer-'louging
for the birds fleet wing
The midnight may be, dreary,
And the heart be worn md weary,
But there's no more shadow yonder in the
presence Of the King.

It was quite Interesting to note tho t'ifIeronco

aud those who have been able to steer clear

before tho Committee yesterday wore betiov-

way to stimulate business and 1n-
crease wages is to indefinitely increase "
tho volume Of pnper currency 30 that 1t will

timo mn opportunity to produce proof 70 lilo
contrary. Al n matter Of faot, ex-hlnyor
11EArn and AleRsrs. VAN OspKr., cooK, md
OLEAvznAxp all unite In denying tho truth
Of tho Insertion. There wore Two p1ans,-

10 save money. But the modified plan
n1ono wau submitted to all the bidders, 60
that no ono firm had any advantage over any
other firm In making up tllair cstiinatos.
This Is tho answor made by The rersons then
In charge, and, II true, 1t Ia n complete an
swer; the Committee Of architects ought to
havo listened to thia answer and tho owl
douoo in support thereof before mixing
their concluslons public.
From tho testimony which TnE TRIBUNE
las gathered from tho other sido, which
tho Committee OF experts ought to hnvo

the Committee have exaggerated, not the

mnny stones havo boon allowed to be placed
In the walls that slould have boon rejected.

defects mud there nre fcw buildings into

or less Of these blomishod atonos in spite
of tho architects and aupcrintondcnts.
At the sa1no timo tho contractors
on tho City Building should bo
hold to tho strioteat account. The
report seems to be correct in its conclusion
that The brick contractor ought to bo CON-
PEELED to put in the fire-lrick stipulated for,
or, il TINT is not poaslble, that ho should be
patd for the other brick according to thotr
relative valuo, md thero haa boen neglect
of duty on tho part Of Mayor HARRISON and
