TIE LOT OF THOUSANDS.

When hope lies dead within the heart,
By secret sorrow long concealed,
We shrink lest looks or words impart
What should not be revealed.
'Tis hard to smile when one would weep
To speak when one would silent be,
To wake when one wOuld wish to sleep,
And wake to agony.
Yet such the lot to thousands cast,
Who wander in this world of care,
And bend beneath its bitter blasts
To save them from despair.
Yet nature waits her guests to greet,
Where disappointment cannot come,
And time leads, with uuerring feet,
The weary wanderer home.

him. He seated himself in one oi
the recesses of the bridge, and
crossing his arms on the stone bal.
ustrade, looked down on the cold,
gray river. No money; no chance
of work that would bring III more
than few Shillings; a delicate
wife and child to provide for-what
was he to dot
How quietly the barges were
floating down the river! A little
bright sunshine dispersed the ear
Iy morning fog, and Jack gazed
down and listened 10 the wooing
voice of the river, whispering OF
rest, peace and torgetfuluess; and
as he listened, shadowy arms
seemed to rise out from the water
and to beckon him down.
Would it not be best for his dear
ones that he should slip quietly out

he we're out of the way. All, but
would anything comfort Muriel for

to think that she would be consoled.

to him through good and evil,

however, hard life may be for her

Jack turned from the river

his life away like q coward. His
limbs were aching and embling
from the cold; for nearly an hour
he had sat exposed to the bitter
weather. He lOnged to ket home

pressing on his heart. And Lulu
dear little Lulu, and the shabby,

had to get back to them all; and
they seemed so far off still, for only

He reached Waterloo station.
He was nearly home now. He at.

THE FUTURE OF THE WHITE
RACE.-"Speaking of the white
race" continued Mr.. Cannon, sac
cording to all English statistician,
they now number one-third of the
population of the globe; whereas,
two centuries ago, they were not
more than one-tenth of it. They
have swallowed up Europe aud are
now entering Africa at all sides.
The English practically control
Egypt, and the Dutch and the
English have strong hold upon
Southern Africa. We ourselves
are trying to get admission to the
Congo Valley. The white race has
Australia and it has strong hold
on India. The Chinese race, large
as it is, does not grow. 1t is not
colOnizing race, and its emigrants
return to China, if possible, before
their death. OF all the white races
the Anglo Saxon and the Anglo.
American are the strongest, aud it
seems to me that Sonth America is
our legitimate field. A century
from now we will have 100000, 900
people 10 the United States, and
already our emigrants are pushing
their way into Mexico. l do not
say that this whole hemisphere
will be under the political govern.
ment of the United States, or will
be under one, two or half a dozen
such governments. l only predict
that its ruling population will be
Anglo American, and that 1t WILL
belong to our race family.-Cdrp,

VIM. Crary, aud are as true and fer
vent an eulogy as ever pronounced
by priest or parson over the bier of a
departed mortal:
Deluded by our social joys,
Life's bliss is but transient toy,
Whose glittering aspect yet decoys
And leaves us only base alloys.
Our labors ending oft in vain,
When we behold our triumphs nigh,
We grasp, the imagined prize to gain,
And in the fruitless effort die.
Twas thus the life OF Stanley sped.
When science proffered him her crown,
Scarce had she placed it on his head,
When fates relentless, tore it down
To the unfathomed realms OF space,
lie sought not to extend his fame
Earth's mysteries he dared to trace
And thus perpetuate his name.
Art smiled when Stanley's pencil traced
Her lineaments with ruth divine;
And with its preespts face to face,
Fair science drew an equal line.
Hopes glimering mirage urged him on
With that reality which seems
To promise, but SO soon is gone,
Like transient visions of our dreams.
Unequal 10 the fatal blight
The chain that held but vital clay,
Failed to withstand the spoilers mi ght;
When his sreea spirit passed away.
