His wife has danced with the Prince

can equal Tom?

The sad fate of Thomas f. Bayard

should enter the diplomatic service

MIR. Bayard is in a muss about his

Importance, we shall change the

In this place, June 18th, BERTHA ".
HATHAWAY, daughter of D. and V. Hatha-
way, aged years and months.
This lovely bud, so young and fair,
Called hence by early doom,
just came to show how sweet a flower
In Paradise could bloom.
TO OUR DARLING.
We watched her breathing through the
day,
Her breathing soft and low;
AS in her breast the wave of life
Kept heaving to and fro.
We thought her dying when she slept
And sleeping when she died.
Her suffering ended with the day
Yet, lived she to its closes
And breathing the long, long day away
In statue-like repose.
Weep not for her who dieth,
For, she sleeps and is at rest
And the couch whereon she lieth
Is the green earth's quiet breast.
There's another empty chair,
There's another vacant bed:
There's many lonely bosom .,rn
Where joy and light have fled.
For thick in every grave yard
The little hillOcks lie,
And every hillock represents
An angel in the sky.
So passed away our darling Bertha.

TO THE MEMORY OF S. II. PITZER.
Dearest husband, thou art lying
Calmly meath the cold, cold ground:
Thou hast known the change called diving.
Thou hast heard the farewell sound.
Husband dear, thou has left us,
In this lonely world to dwell
Yet in Heaven hope to meet thee
Where no farewell tear is shed.
1t was hard to part with you, dear husband,
Whom l so dearly loved,
But tits alas, the doom of all
Who dwell below the skies.
