sv A POETS GRAVE,
By @. P. 4

The Spring has come and zone
Yet silent aeeps he on;
HIS poet-heart unstirred
By leaf or song of bird.
Though daisies dot the lea.
Ana blossoms crowd the tree;
& Vnough earth responsive all
Awakes from Winters thrslLt 80,
ana hnds restored what Autumn had decayed,
No spring-tide reaches where the dead are laid,
The Summer calls in vain;
Not here he wakes again.
The south winds balmy breath
Wooes not the car of Death
Not all the wealth Of flowers
Not oil the sunlit hours
Making earth glorious,
Can bring him back to US.
And for his sake, but half is ours, I ween,
OF Summers goodness, and it's golden sheen.
Then peneive, Autumn come
With woodlands bleak and dumb,
When garnered are thy sheayes,
And shed thy flowers and leaves
Come, yelled, his grave to greet
Who, laid at Natures feet,
Had listened rapt and long
10 learn her matchlesS song.
Come, wall him, Autumn winds and weeping skies;
Mo1sten the sod where our dead darling lies.
Yet lethim sleep, nor rave.
The boon idly crave,
That he miQht live AGAIN
In mortal strife and pain
Though joy to us it brought
For him were dearly bought.
Then let him sleep, great heart,
Since but the grosser part
TO dust is given, and where his spirit wakes,
The dawn Of heavens eternal Summer breaks
As though his sun be set
For us-a glory yet
Beams on us through our tears
That all the after years
A light and guide will be-
hallowed memory.
He liveth still-above
And lives he in our love-
ana though, alas, the cold grave lies between.
Thaslove will keep his grave forever green. D.,

This Sarsaparilla is combination of
vegetable alternatives 49, Stillingia, Man
drake, Yellow Dock with the Iodides
of Potassium and Iron, and is the most
ethcacious medicine yet known for
the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are so skilfully COM
bined, that the full Alternative effect of
each is assured, and while it is so mild
as to be harmless even to children, it is
Still so effectual as to purge out from the
system those impurities and corruptions
which develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence Which
prominent physicians all over the coun-
try repose in it, prove their experience
OF its usefulness.
Certificates attesting it's virtues have
accumulated, and are constantly being
received, and as many Of these cases are
publicly known, they furnish convincing
evidence Ut the superiority of this Sar-
saparllla over every other Alternative
medicine. SO generally is it's superb
orlty to any other medicine known, that
we need do no more than to assure the
public that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.
