We print the following noble little poem !.

We print the following noble little poem
We trust it may stay some uncertain spirit
in the thought that what it is best to do is
right and that providence helps those who
rely upon God and themselves, without
sitting down to mourn over shattered hopes.
Work bravely in whatever thy hands find
to DO, and God will in time bless that
work:
BY thine own souls law learn to live,
And if men thwart thee take no heed,
And if men hate thee have no care;
Sing thou thy song and do thy deed,
Hope thou thy hope and pray thy prayer,
And claim no crown they will not give,
Nor bays they grudge thee for thy hair.
Keep thou thy soul-svorn steadfast oath,
And to thy heart be true thy heart;
What thy soul teaches learn to know,
And play out thine appointed part;
And thou shalt reap as thou shalt SOW,
Nor helped nor hindered in thy growth,
To thy full stature thou shalt grow.

A lady residing in Erie, Pa, has in her
possession perfume bottle that was once
the property Of General Lafayette. 1t is
scarcely larger around than ones finger,
although seven inches in length. The
lady and her husband entertained General
Lafayette upon his last visit to this coun-
try and upon leaving his room In the
morning he left the bottle upon the dresser
behind him. The lady Immediately seized
upon thep article as a momento, tying the
cork in with bit Of thread, and to this
day the remainder Of the perfume and the
cork are in the bottle as the general left
them. IVA, ana 6n,i

Booth at the Boston Museum.

Booth, the greatest living American
actor, is taking the breath away, almost,
from his Boston audiences, by his magnif-
cent powers and intellectual perceptions.
This is what writer, one from the midst
OF his fine audiences says of him:
In ''Othello" Mr.. Booth shows that COM
handing and subtle intelligence for which
he is distinguished, quite as convincingly
as in any Of his other parts. Nothing
could be finer than his exact estimate Of his
own powers. Except in the few instances
where the part actually forces him to it,
he never gives way to the temptation to-
make an effect by means which do not lie
within his scope. In passages which have
been indeliably stamped upon our memory
by Salvini's grand outbursts of physical
passion, or the magnificent vocal cannonad-
ing Of Forrest, he wisely takes refuge in 50
searching and beautiful reading Of the
lines as almost to make the poetry act for
him. 1t is only where violent physical
expression Of passion becomes absolutely
unavoidable that he has recourse to purely
physical means-and fails. In moments
of intense pathos or profound sentiment
the power Of expressing, which has grown
in Mr. Booth more and more with advanc-
ing age--he often rises to an exquisite
beauty of expressiveness- Ii his
ooh, now, forever lat

seemed thought artificial and voluntary
nothing could have been more divlnely
beautiful than his reading of the passage

.n1,bted to friend Of the JOUR-
v.I for the following extract from DOS
ton paper
or.,lv in the evening I was introduced
y. r Marion Crawford, whose novel,
n NJ 4 1saacs, gave him so sudden reputa-
+on He is very tall, six feet two, with
s.a.d shoulders, full brown beard, high
Sa,ebead and hazel eyes; his manners are
a,sv but not free, he laughs heartily and
slts we'll. I engaged him in conversation
.hout his book. He said he had no inten-
ion to write novel, and did not think he
oun but returning from India, where he
b.d failed in an attempt to establish q
newspaper, he was in the habit of relating
bis adventures in the East to an uncle,
wbo became so much interested that he
insisted upon his nephew turning them
into novel, and Mr. lsaacs was the re-
suit. The MSS was submitted to Mac
milan & Co. Nothing was heard from it
for three months, and Mr.. Crawford began
to think it was forgotten, when he received
a letter from the publishers, offering to
issue the book upon the usual terms of ten
per cent. This was gladly accepted. The
novel was published, and Mr.. Crawford,
like Byron, woke up one morning and
found himself famous. He bears his blush
ing honorS meekly, and is rather astonished
at his own success. He said, however,
that he could not submit his MSS. to the
editor of the Century, or any magazine,
except the atlantic, Mr.. Aldrich being
friend Of his. He thinks he has estab-
llShed his REPUTATION, and editors should
BUY without examining his work. Mr..
crawford has unfortunately followed up
dis hrSt success too rapidly, Three novels
nave already appeared since the publication
Of Mr. 1saacs, eighteen months ago; and
ne has just finished another. I do not
know whether Mr.. Crawford should be
claSSed among American novelists. He
was born in Italy, where most of his life
LAS been passed; he speaks Italian more.

eff it were now to die.

eff it we're now to die,
liver now to be most happy; for I fear,
My soul hath her content so absolute.
That not another comfort like to this
Succeeds in unknown fate"
It recalled the ineifaceable, solemn
beauty of his delivery Of those greatest Of
Hamlet's lines. Gift be now, I is not to
come; fit be not to come, it will be now.
yet it will come: the readiness is ALL d
passage, by the way, in which Irving,
much to our surprise, made no adequate
effect
In Mr.. Booths conception Of Othello
there was one thing which one still found
wanting, notably in the earlier scenes; he
gives no hint ofthe natural geniality, open
heartedness and simplicity of the Moor's
character From his very first scene on
ward, he appears sinister, forbiddipg,
almost naughty; as il there were more
locked up within him than he was willing
to show. The very austere simplicity Of
his demeanor, combined with certain
autoeratic sternness and reseryedness,
seemed to pose Othello's character, as the
French say at the outset, as far more
intricate and complex one than it really il.
There was nothing of that genial sponta-
niety, that inevitable and immediate leap
of every emotion to the surface, which
marked Salyinis Othello. In the scene
in the council chamber Mr.. Booth showed
none of that spontaneous, rather ford
Oriental courtesy Of manner which the
great Italian actor lent such infinite zeal;
he acted more Ikea man Of high official
position who knew what was due to court
etiquette. In short, Mr.. Booths Othello
is noted throughout for total absence
any attempt at character acting.

IN MEMORIAM.

The large cOnGOurSe gathered at st.
PauPS on Saturday afternoon to attend the
O~bsequies of our late Rector, the Revd.
John .. Dubois D. D., representing as it
did all classes in this community, was an
eloquent though silent testimony to the
esteem in which he was held by most men.
The church, draped i'll the solemn garb of
mourning, was filled to Overlooking, and
around the coffin which loving hands had
decked with the fairest of floral tributes,
might be seen crOwding men, women, and
children, come to pay the last respects to
their departed pastor and friend.
The burial service was read by the Revd
Chas. Branch, acting rector of st. Johns,
Ch~riStiansted, assisted by Revd. Paulus
Mort, q native of this island, recently
ordained to the Office of priest in the
United States, and who arrived here on
the morning of the day of the funeral.
To those of us who knew how the departed
one had spent his life in promoting the
highest welfare Of the race which this
gentleman represents, there came Il strong
sense of the fitness of things, combined
with a feeling of genuine satisfaction in
hearing him take part in Offering the
last hOuOurS to the beloved dead.
The eureka" Lodge of FreemasOnS, of
which the deceased was the first Worship
full Master, was largely represented, and
after the services of our church were
performed, the impressive words of the
Masonic Ritual for the Burial of the Dead
were ably delivered by Capt. j. Willard,
Worshlpful Master, and all the solemn

ted mobs, unframed and fearless. For
his courage and conduct during that terri
BILE scene, the British Foreign Office sent
him an Official Letter of thanks and q
present of two hundred pounds.
Dr.. Dubois was essentially what wa
understand in the Church of England by
ga good parish Priest,o unwearied in his
visitations of the sick, and excelling in
that intimate knowledge of his people
which nothing can give but frequent
house to house visits. He always seemed
to be a member of every family i'll his
parish.
He married q daughter of DR.. Ruan,
one of the leading medical men in st.
Croix. She is left, with four sons and n
daughter, to mourn the loss of q loving
husband and father.
Dubois was a decided High O%hurchman,
but with as clear q perception as | ever
knew in any man of the freedom of
thought in the Church of England. From
the writer of this sketch he differed On
