a Vote of Thanks.

A village in New England came into
possession of a neat and much needed
town hall, the gift of public spirited citi-
zcns. When completed 4 meeting was
held to dedicate the new building.
Speeches were made by prominent citi-
zens, and special reference was naturally
made to the chief benefactor and to those
who had been most active in forwarding
the enterprise.
One speaker mentioned the names of
five or six Of these citizens, and sug-
gested that vote of thanks be rendered

mighty city IS there any hour
From daybreak till another dawuing comes.
When the white dove Of peace can droop her wings
In sweet compassion o'er thy throbbing heart:
Is there no respite from the thund'r ring wheels.
The clangor OF the bells: Art thou not sick
Of 100 much life? Canst thou rot sleep
While the calm stars plying vigil keep?
Is there no shore in tbs toud, stunning tide
Whereon thy waves could break. and then be still
Canst thou not lift thine eyes to yon blue heaven
And in its boundless peace hide thy unrest:
Caust thou not cast the burden OF thy care
On the great Heart of Love beyond the stars
