In SPITE OF JOINS VoTE.-There re.
sided in Springfield, in 1860, an Irish
laborer, John McCarty by name, red-hot
democrat Shortly after the presidential
election, Mr.. Lincoln was walking past
the public square. where John was at work
cleaning out the gutter. AS the president
elect drew near. McCnrty, pausing in his
work and holding out his hand. said
bluntly;
AN so yer elected president, are YEP
Faith, an it wasn't by my vote, ye wur. "
"Well, yes, John" replied Mr.. Lincoln,
shaking hands very cordially, the papers
say I'm elected, but it seems odd | should
be, when you went against me-"
"Well, Misther Lincoln" said John,
dropping his voice, lest some brother
democrat should hear him. I'm glad
you got it, afther all. It's mighty little
pace I've had wild Biddy for votin forninst

me from the shanty, as shure's the

Waiting memory brings back the past
Spriug-tme Of h1wsrs-ilas! killei by the blast.
Addsr-tongued voices. his soul doth bezuie
While Satan, in triu'n0h, lp1ks IN with a smile:
Crushing anew, nv heart bleeding and torn.
TIL sink in the dust beneath the worlIs sroru
welrly waitnE tho clock strikes tw1
The moments pass slowly--oh. G "a. IS It true'
Is that his footstep hear on the stair?
All, no tits the storm kin rs wall ~ the air
Trembling with fear-T cry unto Heaven,
Lord save or he perish-can he be forgiven
In mercy reclaim him-from hts lips dash the bowl.
Thou hast died for the l1st-oh, rescue his soul,
YEARLY waiting-the clock strikes three,
Heavy laden taar Savior, come unto thee
Now look, and behold how wondrously strange.
Can it be true ? is there such change?
His early VOWS broken, again he reuews.
The demons cup shiver'd he no longer pursles
My feeble PRAYER answered to ne nov is given.
The hope of a blessed reunion in Heaven.

THE DEAD CHILD AND THE MOCKING
HIRD


The following poem is in no sense mere fancy.
contrary the strange, pathetic incident it commeI
ties actually occurred, not long in the neighbC
ID OF Jacksonville, FlortdA-l
Once. in land of balm and flowers,
OF rich fruit laden trees.
Where the wild wreaths from iasminebowers
Trail DER Floridian seas.
We marked our Jeannie's footsteps run
Athwart the twinkling glade:
She seemed Hebe in the sun,
Dryad in the shade.
And all day long her winsome song,
Her trebles and soft trills,
Would wave-like flow. or silverv low
Die down the whispering rills
One morn mid most the foliage dim
dark gray pinion stirs;
And bark ! along the vine-clad limb
What strange voice blends with hersg
1t blends with hers, which soon is stiled-
Braver the mock-bird's note
Than all the strains thst ever filled
The queenliest human throat!
As JEANNE heard, she loved the bird.
And sought thenceforth to share
With her new favorite dawn by dawn,
her dalntlest morning cheer.
But ah ! blight beyond our ken.
From some far feverous wild,
Brought that dark shadow feared of men
Across the fated child.
1t chilled her dropping curls of brown
1t dimmed her voilet eyes,
And like an awful cloud crept down
From vague, mysterious skies.
At last one day our JEANNE lay
All pulseless, pale forlorn;
The sole sweet breath on lips of death
The fiuttering breath Of morn;
When just beyond the DER -curtained room
(How tender, yet how strongly
Rose through the misty morning gloom
The mock birds sudden song.
Dear Christ those notes of golden peal
Seem caught from Heavenly spheres,
Yet through'their marvellous cadence steal
Tones soft as chastened tearsi
Is it an angels voice that throbs
Within the brown birds breast
Whose rhythmic magic scars or sobs
Above our darling's rest?
The fancy passed came once more
When, stolen from Jesnnie's bed.
That eve, along the porchway floor
found our minstrel-dead
The fire of that transcendent strain
His life chords burned apart
And, merged in sorrows earthlier pain,
1t broke the o'erladen heart.
Maiden and bird the selfsame grave
Their welded dust shall keep,
While the long low Flordan wave
Means round their place of sleep

after a most successful career in matrmo-

raised up forty seven children, only two of
