One sweet flower has dropped and faded,
One dear youthful voice has fled,
One dear form the grave has shaded,
One loved sister now lies dead.
Yet we feel no thought OF sadness,
For our sisters happy now;
She has knelt in heartfelt gladness
Where the holy angels bow.
She has gone to Heaven before us,
Yet she stands and waves her hand,
Pointing to the glories DER us
In that happy Spirit Land.

The beginning of a new story by
W. ID. Howells. in the Midwinter
february Century, is literary event
whose Importance is increased by the
discussion, in the past four months, of
the characters, ethical purpose and
literary qualities of "a Modern In
stance. Mr.. Howells's audience
has been held up to high notch of
curiosity to see the opening chapters
of "a Woman's Reason" His read
ers will not be disappointed. The
scene is once more Boston, but the So
cial atmosphere and the purpose have
undergone a complete change. Only
the style remains the same; but here,
too, the reader will perceive freshness
of attitude and new vivacity.

From the South Florida Times we
clip the following in regard to former
fellow citizen, son of Joel Barnett,
ESD, of .Kinnickinnic:
We learn that E. De f. Barnett.
Esq, has been appointed Justice of the
Peace for VoluSia county. This is a
compliment paid to Mr.. Barnett as, on
his part, the honor was unsolicited and
entirely unexpected. The fact that
Mr.. Barnett is Republican shows the
right kind of liberalism from our
Governor, as the party lines are not
so strictly drawn by him as in other
States.

Died, at River Falls, Wis, on the
2lst day of January, 1883, George
Larson, late engineer on the Hudson
and River Falls branch of the Chicago,
st. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha Rail-
road. Mr.. Larson was native of
Norway and came to this country
some years since, and has followed
railroading most of the time since
coming here. He was at the time of
his death thirty-one years OF age. AS
already stated in these columns, he
was injured in a railway accident on
this railroad, near Glover's Station.
Hopes were then entertained of his
recovery, as the nature of his injuries
were uncertain and it was thought
not serious, but time has proved that
those opinions were ill-founded and
that in fact he had suffered some
internal injuries, which proved to be
fatal.
OF very genial disposition and
faithful at his post of duty. Mr.. Lar
son won many friends on the road, and
will be missed by all who knew him.
He leaves a widow and three young
children to mourn his loss.
The funeral was held at his late
residence on Monday afternoon at
o'clock, Rev. Hamilton, of the NJ. E.
church, conducting the services. A
large number of friends attended at the
house and joined the funeral cortege
on its sad journey to the cemetery.
