THU OLD UNREST.

Tonight, again, feel the old unrest.
The strain, and stir, and tumult in the breast,
AS though the Soul assailed its walls OF clay
On every side, and strove to break away!
80 have:I seen a Lion In his cage
Spring at the iron bars in helpless rage.
Or plunge against the walls with fruitless bound
And with loud protests shake the buildings
round!
Tonight there comes the longing to be Free
Away above tho Mountains and the Sea-
Away through skies to some more glorious Cline
From the, poor Present to some richer Time
Away, away forever! All how vain!
or are they Free who break this mortal chain?
Flies in the cOO-web OF relentless Fate
Our Souls resent and scorn the present state:
Each soul Tantalus, and over each
Forever hangs the Bliss 1t cannot reach!
There Is no soul but has some dear regret
For something lost, Oh which the heart was set :;
Through tcar-drop prisms still we sec it glow,
kimmed with the splendors OF the glorious bow
There Is no soul but sometimes takes its flight:
TO those far skies that made its youth so bright
In search OF something lost, and, witha sigh,
Gives o'cr the search, returns and waits to die.
And treads the stony way With, bleeding feet.
TO find it when the heart has ceased to beat.

GOD AND NATURE

I have not scared to God to walk with Him.
Ana my fapt visions have been brief, and dim,
Although, like Paul, fought againstthe flesh
WIN every powers and prayer, and thought and
wish,
Yet when abroad with Nature, ranging free,
'o" met me on the hills and walked with me!
sweet Autumnal days of long ago!
How i'll my bosom yet. their raptures glow!
Those mellow days, whemin the nfiIlte West,
In some celestial realm Of the blcst,
The Angels looscl the winds ami set them free.
10 roam the fields 3nd woods Andlins with me
While toiling men, in hamlets far away,
Heard the woods roar through allthe baln,y day
. blessed days Of sunshine and of peace!
When from the strife OF men stole release,
And walked abroad among the hills and woods,
In the sweet company of Gods so!tudes;
Through velvet fields saw the rivers run.
And white towns shining in the mellow sun,
And heard the woods their soothing music pour
From forest harps with multitudinous roar;
Or SAW, across some blue and distant bay,
a glory fall on cities far away,
And taper steeplcs, ring slim and high,
Stand gloritied against til incifab'e Sky!
Aud then God came with His rich gifts of power,
And talked an'l walked with me from hour to
hour,
And changed me to harp on which lie played
Such w"ntlr"us music rs in Heaven is made.
Nor could yield when sheltered safe and warm
And Night shut hown around me with 4 Storm
For still, above the darkness and the rain,
My Soul went out to walk with God again!
And years nave passed, and yet with many a
thrill,
The old, old love OF Nature swayS me still!
And down the great deeps of the throbbing soul
Tonight what sounds AMI waves of rapture roll.
AS thunder balls, from some Olympus hurled,
Roll down the sky and shake the solid world!

EDITOR ADVANCE: In your issue Of

the disappearance Of Jabez. Now that

began to act in Il manner which caused
my father to believe lie was losing his
