SUNSET.


Shadows are falling ON glorious day,
As shadows fall at length on all things fair.
The chipping sparrow 10 its nest has flown,
And life seems like one sweet and silent prayer.
The western sky il but one mass of gold,
With streaks of red that soften with tho gray
n is that gate of heaven open thrown,
To welcome souls, whose tears have ceased this
day.
The golden light is what our crowns shall be;
The red the blood that gaineC us entrance
there;
The gray, the sorrows that are left without
Now quickly fading In the golden glare.
The music that steals softly DER the soul,
Soothing the troubled, agitated breast,
Is but the echo of the heavenly choir
Welcoming at eventde the souls at rest.
- Eleanor ii. Abbott.

warning from which others might profit,
and yet not one word spoken was in dis
respect to the man who had gone TO an
swer the final account with his maker.
What conditions might have laid the
foundation for his incurable appetite for
strong drink we may be unable to under
stand. He was by birth an Austrian,
and perhaps the drinking habits of that
country might have established lasting
desire for alcohol; his experience in the
army might have fostered the habit, he
might have been trained TO IL by parents.
perhaps inherited 1t, or he might have
been led into it by boon companions, or
have begun by its use for medicinal pur
poses. but at any rate the indispensable
appetite was there and 1t worsted him
until he became its very slave and Its VIC
tim. This man was one Of acknowledged
ability and talent who had good edu
cation in the military profession as well
as in those of civil engineer and
journalist. He was writer
of brilliancy and power, and we are
told outside of his one failing,
possessed all the characteristics of gen.
tlemsn, and his struggles with his deadly
enemy more terrible on that account.
Who could picture his sufferings as he
struggled from one debauch to another
to overthrow the terrible appetite which
was crushing him, only to be vanquished
and to plunge deeper than ever in his
downward career. Perhaps, emerging
from one he would resolve never to in>
dulge again, and keep his vow for
short time, until some sudden impulse or
unlocked for temptation obtained the
mastery. Perhaps he would succeed in
passing saloons and keeping his promise
not to enter, until, catching Whit of the
alcohol. he succumbed and drained the
cup to his lips. Time after time must
this have been repeated until, having lost
position, honor and friends, without
struggle. What must his sutforings have
been when he pawned his very coat for
his nights lodging; he procured the
poison, and, in the very depths of degra>
dalton and dispair. took the fatal draught
and with groan lay down, not to sleep,
but to await the end of crushed
career. 1t was fearful responsibility
which rested upon one who first educated
such a person to the taste for strong
drink.
Mr.. Marquis concluded with temper>

drop and to avoid the sad epitaph-"A
