nand, from Phils. 1,.2l, ITO die Is gain," speak
ing Of the blessedness Of the place to which
the Christian is going, and the grand disclosure
Of light and glory which they are TO realize
there. A long procession Of friends followed
to the Hope cemetery where the mortal re-
mains were inferred. This bereaved family
have the heartfelt sympathy Of the entire COM

He secs when their footsteps falter,
When their hearts grow weak aud faint,
He marks when their strength is failing,
And listens to each complaint.
He bids them rest for season,
For the pathway is grown too steep,
And folded In fair green pastures,
He giveth his beloved sleep.''
Like weary and worn-out children,
That Sigh for the dlylight's close,
He knows that they oft are longing
For home and Its sweet repOse.
So He calls them In from their labor,
Ere the shadows around them creep,
And silently watching DER them
He giveth bis beloved Sleep"
Weep not that her tolls are over,
Weep not that her race is run,
God grant we may rest as calmly
When our work, like hers. is done.
Till then we would yield with gladness
Our treasures to Him to keep
And rejoice in the sweet assurance
He giveth his beloved Sleep"
