EDGAR M. BACON, IN BALDwIN's MONTHLY.
There is . song thatI never could sing,
Though its notes In my memory ring.
And its measures are full Of the sweets Of the
years
OF voices Of children. and laughter, and tears,
And the whir Of the Summer blrd's wings.
There is picture never could paint,
Sweet and fair as some aureoled saint;
Like dawn on the ocean. where no eyes can
see,
In wild. fitful splendor it burneth for me.
And mourn as its colors grow faint.
There is dream-ahi never can tell
What my own bosom knoweth SO well;
Yet how sweetly it comes in the. depth of the
night;
Like message 1t comes, like message of light
From the land where the sun children dwell.
For gather the thought and the tone
From the wreck Of bright hours that are dow
And hold to my heart. In my foolish despair.

Is there no place ON the face of the earth
Where charity dwelleth, where virtue hath
birth7
Where bosoms in kindness and mercy will
heave
And the poor and the wretched may ask and
receive?
Is there no place on earth where knock from
the poor
Will bring kind angel TO open the door?
All search the wide world wherever you can,
There is no open door for the mon syless man.
Go look in the hall where the chandelier light
Drives on with its splendor the darkness of
night,
Where the rich hanging velvet, IN shadowy
fold,
Sweeps gracefully down, with its trimming Of
gold,
And mirrors OF silver take up and renew
In long lighted vistas the 'wildering view;
Go there In your patches and nnd If you can,
welcoming smile for the moneyless man.
Go look in your church Of the cloud reaching
spire.
Which gives back to the sun his same look of
Where the arches and columns are gorgeous
within,
And the walls seem a. pure as a soul without
Go down the long aisle-see the rich and the
great,
In the pomp and the pride of their worldly es-
tate;
Walk down in your patches and find If you
Who opens pew for the moneyless man.
Ho1
With the scales wherein law weigheth quietly
down:
Where he frowns on the weak and smiles on
the strong;
And Furnishes right while he juStifies wrong;
Where jurors their lips on the Bible have laid.
To render verdict they've already made;
Go there in the court-room. nd find if you can,
Any law for the case of a money]ess man.
Go look in the banks. where Mammon has told
His hundreds of thousands of silver and gold !;
Where. safe from the hands of the starving and
| poor,
Lies pile upon pile Of the glittering ore;
Walk up to the counter-ah, there you may
stay,
Till your limbs have grown old and your hair
turns gray.
And you'll nnd at the bank not one of the clan
With money to lend to the moneyless man.
Then 60 to your hOvel-no raven has fed
The wife who has suffered SO long for her bread;
Kneel down by her pallet and kiss the death
frost
From the lips Of the angel your poverty lost
Then turn in your agony upward to God.
And bless, while 1t smites you, the chastening
rod,
And you'll find at the end of your life's little
span
There's welcome above for the moneyless
man.

JERUsALEM.--The first view of Jeru-
salem is MT always equal to expecta-
tion. Much depends upon the point
Of observation Probably it is seen to
most advantage when viewed from the
north. DIR. Clarke who entered by the
Damascus gate was entranced with the
view. 1--WE had not been prepared, |"
he says, ''for the grandeur Of the spec
tacle, which the city alone presented.
Instead of q wretched and ruined town,
by some described as the desolsted rem
nant of Jerusalem, we beheld in it Q
flourishing and stately metropolis pre-
senting q magnificent assemblage OF
domes, towers, palaces. churches and
monasteries. all Of which. glitteriDg IN
the suns rays, shone with inc0Dceiva-
BILE splendor. As we drew nearer our
whole attention was eDgrossed by its
noble and interesting appearance The
lofty hills surrounding it give the city
AN appeara. ce of grandeur less than IT
really has," This picture is slightly
Overdrswn; and 1t il difficult to resist
the impression that much of the gram
deur of the spectacle was due to the
sunny rays Batbed in the clear, east
ern sunlight. even desolation itself
sometimes looks beautiful. BucklDg-
hams description accords more With
our own experience 1.-The appearance
of this celebrated CITY," he says, '1nde
pendent of the feelings and recollec
tions which the approach to 1t cannot
fail to awaken, was greatly inferior ia
my expectations, and had c, rtaiDly
nothing of grandeur. or Of beauty, Of
stateliness, or of magnifieence about 1t
It appeared like q walled town OF the
third or fourth class. having neither
towers nor dOmes nor minarets within
1t, in sufficient number to give even 9
character to Its impressions on the be.
holders, but showing chiefly flat-roofed
buildings Of the most unornamented
kind, seated amid rugged hills, on .
stony and forbidden soil, with scarcely
q picturesque object in the whole COM
pass of the surrounding view" Oul
| first view of the city was from thu
south. It was q moment Of intenst
feeling. It was not beauty, not gran
deur, anything stately or majestic: bu
1t was Jerusalem-the city of Dsvit
and Solomon. the city whose street.
had been trodden by the feet of th'
Master Himself But for the memOrie

ip upon the mind, we should have seer

sions which the beautiful alone cOult
