AT EST.

All, silent wheel, the noisy brook is dry,
And quiet hours glide by
In this deep vale, where once the merry stream
Sang on through gloom and CLEAN;
Only the dove in some leaf-shaded nest
Murmufs Of rest.
All, weary voyager, the closing day
Shines on that tranquil bay,
Where the storm-beaten soul has longed to be;
Wild blast and angry sea
Touch not this favored shore, by summer blest,
A home of rest.
All, fevered heart, the grass is green and deep
Where thou art laid asleep:
Kissed by soft winds, and washed by gentle show
ers,
Thou hast thy crown of flowers;
Poor heart, too long in this mad world opprest,
Take now thy rest.
1, too, ~perplexed with strife of good and Ill;
Long to be safe and still;
Evil is present with me while l pray
That good may win the day.
Great Giver, grant me Thy last gift and best,
Thy gilt of rest

longer in admiration or with reverence, bit
with stern froHns, or, a thousand times worse
still, with the vile leer Ct animal brutish-
ness. Is there aught beneath the sky harder
to endure than all THE? There i, and she
has to endure it. 1t ia the scorp, the avoid
ance OF her own sex. Not under heaven is
there one pure bosom on which she can weep
her penitential tears; not one sister 10 whose
heart she can appeal in her abandonment
and despair. So it seems to her, but here
and there the Nsz arene, who called upon the
guilless tbemselvea-to throw the fret stone,
has q follower, whose bosom is the shelter
and whose heart is the refuge OF her Tor
whom earth has no forgiveness; and such was
Anna Smith, and nobIy she has discharged
the duty laid upon her by HIM who
knew no guile. Happy it is that
we can say that 10 Memphis, too, there are
bosoms as gentle and hearts ss kindly.
Here, too, there are good and pure women
whose souls are agonized for these fallen
ones, eager to pluck them from the burning.

angels yearnings, tears pure as those that
fell on the cross, for fallen sisters, rejected

The restoration of fallen women is one Of
the burning questions Of the day. The
world qnails before the duty that question

den Of her misery. But there are some who
have better comprehended the limitless be-
nefceuce Of the great teacher. These listen

He would do now in their place, and they do

in Memphis a refuge for the fallen and a
guide to a restored peace-a peace that
passeth understanding; and those who would
go and do likewise will gladden. tho hearts

cerned, if they will give the substantial help
that is decided. Theirs it will be to save a

once for all whether the New York Fenian
