THE DYING MOTHER.
nj ALICE CARY.

We were weeping round her pillow,
For we knew that she must die;
Il was night within cur bosoms--
1t was night within the sky.
There were seven of us children,
/ the oldest one of ali,
So tried to whisper comfort,
But the binding tears would iall.
On my knees my little brother
Leaned his aching brow, and wept'
And my sisters long black tresses
Der my heaying bosom swept.
The shadow of an awful fear
Came o'er me rs trod,
10 lay the burden Of my grief
Before the throne Of God.
"Oh. be kind to ore another"
Was my mothers pleading prayer,
As her hand lay like snowflake
On the baby's golden hair.
Then glory bound her forehead,
Like the glory Of a crown
And in the silent sea Of death
The star of life went down.
Her latest breath was borne away
Upon her loving prayer.
And the hand grew heavier, paier,
Ia the baby's golden hair.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, October 10.-A

lighted in the furnace at Washing

OF the deceased, who arrived here

They left with the remains for Onei-
