"Lonnie Martin, a colored boy, was

was very much interested in listening to
the "reminiscences of Mr.. Moss about some
of his ancestry, who had wealth and posi-
ton. His mother resides with HIM She
is about eighty years ofage, has gone by ten
years beyond the allotted period of human
life. Just the day before, she put on for the
first time pair Of stockings her mother
gave her sixty years ago. They were said
to be beautiful and made OF the finest mate
rial-her mother won them from her father
betting on the weight of a hog. She still
has wax doll which her mother gave her
when she was a little girl. These little
souvenirs are sacredly preserved. They
call up memories of the long ago, and help
to cheer the loneliness of age and widow
hood. The old love to dwell upon the past,
their thoughts often linger among the once
familiar scenes of childhood and youth. In
the chambers of imagery many smiling
face beams down upon them. Let us gent

Flowers are wanted in Heaven to-day"
An angel said to me;
''And we have enough save few more buds,
Your little bud would see.
l turned me about and brought forth my
child
The angel looked in her face and smiled
"There is nothing tairer on high said he
u will take this bud, if it pleaseth thee. y
l looked at the child, and thought, .Alasp
Life is ever as brittle as glass.
In manhood rs in infancy
Some day, when my bud doth wider ope
just when the full blown flower, | hope,
1t may fade, and droop, and die.
Or if not so, yet in coming years
Un this sad world so full of snares),
AS my flower stoop to kiss,
1t may be my lot TO weep and start,
AS | see colcd up in its Utmost heart,
A serpent with venomed hiss
1t may fall to me--ah who can tell?
In after years to remember well,
What the angel asked to-day
And to wish, with many and many a tear
l had parted that day with my bud so dear,
,,1 ,rro tot INV Goh s,Iic NOV -
/ will do this now. In the realms on high,
My bud shall neve more sorrow nor cry,
NV bud never fade nor fall
And | will not think of the dreary tomb:
| will look abooe where my flower doth bloom
will have no funeral pull.
For this is not Death, with the sombre wing;
IT'S but transplanting the dear little thing,
To the garden of my God
All, me shall miss her-that know |
But will not call this Il cruel blow,
Nor say II have felt the rod
So took my tabe to my loving breast
And nursed, and soothed, and sung her 10
rest
The angel meanwhile, smiled
"She is sleeping" | said, "let her not awake,
Till the glory Of God around her break y
And gaoe Inn my little child.
Then turned and bowed me long on the
ground;
I rose-nether angel nor child found
But have no fears, and love to think
OF the lilies above at the fountains brink ;
And 1 quiet my heart with the precious
thought,
"My child is with God and can lack for
nought )" :,
And know that sOmetime--when God shall
please
l will meet her again, meath the sbadowless
trees.
