THE OLD WIFE.

By the bed the cid man. waiting, sat in vigil sad
and tender,
Where his aged wife lay dying: and the twilight
shadows brown
Slowly from the wall and window chased the sur
sets golden splendor
Going down.
SIS it night" she whispered, waking (ior her
spirit seemed to hover
Lost between the next worlds sunrise and the
bedtime cares of this),
And the old man. weak and fearful, trembling rs
he bent above her,
Answered Yes
"Are the children in ." she asked him.
Could he tell her? All the treasures
OF their household lay in silence many years
beneath the snow
But her heart was with them living back among
her tolls and pleasures
Long ago.
And again she called at dew-lll, in the sweet old
summer weather,
Where is little Charley, father" Frank and
Robert have they Gomez
"They are SAFE" the old man faltered, "all the
children together-safe at home'
Then he murmured gentle soothings, but his grief
grew strong and stronger,
Till it choked and stilled him as he held and
kissed her wrinkled hand,
For her soul, far out of hearing could his ondest
words no longer
Understand.
Still the pale lips stammered questions, lullabies
and broken verses,
Nursery prattle-all the language of mothers
loving deeds,
While the midnight round the mourner left to
sorrows bitter mercies,
Wrapped its weeds.
There was stiffness on the pillow-and the old
man listened lonely
Till they led him from the chamber, with the
burden on his breast,
For the wife of seventy years. his manhood early
love and only,
Lay at rest.
Fare -you-wel,' - he sobbed, 'my Sarah you will
meet the babes before me;
'Tis little while, for neither can the parting
long abide,
And you'll come and call me soon, know-and
Heaven will restore me
To your side."
1t was even so. The spring time in the steps OF
winter treading,
Scarcely shed its orchard blossoms the old man
closed his eyes,
And they buried HIM by Sarah-and they had
their diamond Wedding
In the skies.

WINGED THOUGHTS.

Beautiful birds have plumage,
Beautiful thoughts have wings;
Stars shine far above the sigh
OF earth's vague whisperings.
Under the earth's broad bosom
Never beauty lies
But shall burn its way TO the rim of day.
And fash TO our wondering eyes
Beautiful gems lie hidden
Under the fold of earth:
Even the slime hides thought sublime
Till the time of the lily's birth.
Even the birds went creeping
Wingless and featherless,
Till plume by plume, like the roses bloom,
They borrowed the singers dress.
Beautiful birds have plumage,
Beautiful thoughts fly high;
The poets song cannot slumber long.
It's track is the boundless sky,
Under the infinite heaven
Never a wing Cnfurled
But shall find its way to the verge of day.
And fash on some wondering world
