pov different now, old friend, tho meetinsi
Thy form, thy face, thy look the SAME
But where is now the kindly greeting,
The voice Of cheer, the heart Of flame!
There. In thy grandeur, calm and splendid-
Gods peace on that imperial brow
Thou standcst, grief and trouble ended.
And We are nothing tn thee now
Yet, once again the air is cioven
with Joyous tumult Of acclaim:
Once more the golden wrcaths are woven
OF love and honor for thy name;
And round thee here, with tender longing
AS oft they did in days OF old,
The comrades OF thy soul como thronging
Wbe never knew thee stern or cold.
why waits, in frozen silence sleeping.
The smile that made our hearts re1oicef
why, dead TO Laughing and to weeping,
Is hushed the music Of thy voice7
BY what strange mood Of reverie hamted
Art thou, the gentle, grown austerel
And do we live in dreams enchanted.
10 know thee gone, yet think thee herei
All fond pretence! ah, sweet beguilingi
Too we'll know thy course is run.
There's no more grief and no moro smiling
For thee, henceforth, beneath the sun.
In manhood's noon thy summons found thee,
In glory's blaze on fortunes height,
Trailed the black robe Of doom around thee
And yelled thy radiant face in night.
This but the shadow of a vision
Our mourning souls alone can see,
That pierce through death TO realms elysian,
More hallowed now because Of thee
Yet, oh what heart. with recollection
OF thy colossal trance Of pain,
Were now so selfish, In affection,
To wish thee back from Heaven againi
There must be, in those boundless spaces
Where thy great spirit wanders free.
Abodes Of bliss, enchanted places,
That only Loves white angels seei
And sure II heavenly kindness showercd
On every sufferer meath the sun
Shows any human spirit lowered
with love angelic, thou vert onei
There's no grand i'm ulse. no revealing
In all the cloro'.s Did of art,
There's no sweet thought or noble feeling
That throbbed not in thy manly heart
There's no strong flight of aspiration,
No reverent dream of realms divine,
No pulse, thrill, no proud citation
OF god like power, that was not thneI
VIII.
So stand forever, joyless, painless,
Supreme alike DER smiles and tears,
Thou true mans image strong and stainless.
Unchanged through all the changing years.
While Fame's blue crystal oer thee bending
With honor's gems shall blaze and burn
And rose and lily round thee blending
Adorn and bless thy hallowed urnl
While summer days are long and lonely.
While autumn sunshine seems to weep,
While midnight hours bleak, and only
The stars and clouds their vigils keep,
All gentle things that live shall moan thee,
All fond regrets forever wake
For earth is happier 10 have known thee.
And Heaven is sweeter for thy sake.

The opening of line of electric street
railway In Bangor, which will probably take
place In few days, will be an event of con-
siderable Importance, especially as land
mark in the long march which has been
made in very brief space of electrical inn
provement. Five years ago, electrical indus
try was in its infancy in this country. The
electric light was wonder heard of but not
seen by the great mass of the people OF
Maine. To-day, along the Kennebec and
other rivers, even farm houses adjacent to
water powers. are equipped with the mean
descent lights. In the United States there
are to-day 5,351 isolated plants and central
electric light stations, producing every night
1872 500 arc and 1,925,000 incandescent lights.
There are employed for the motive power of
dynamos steam engines aggregating 459,495
horse power, and the capitalization of cleo
trical companies during the last six months
has increased $42.210,1 100. There are now
being operated in this country thirty-four
electric railroads, comprising 1873 miles
of single track, while 40 other roads, with an
aggregate length of over 800 miles, are in
course of construction. Careful estimates
show that no less than II, 100000 passengers
will be carried by the electric roads of the
country during the present year. The in
crease of the business is strikingly illus
trated by the fact that there are single facto-
ries employing as many as 1900 persons in
making electric motors. There are eight
journals devoted exclusively to electricity
and its dependent industries in the United
States. This great progress is the work of
only about half decade. If we look back a

to the members of an electric convention
