"sninr Bridges y Of t:,o Last.

At this stage Of the proceedings we fail
in for the first time during tho present
expedition with one or two of those ia
nous Swing bridges" which are such d
characteristic feature both of India and
Of Ceylon. Their construction is very
simple. Two ropes are stretched from
bank to bank about four feet apart, and
number Of thin planks fastened across
them SO as to make kind of rude foot
way; but the addition of Aandrail on
either side is absolutely necessary to mako
this primitive bridge passable at all, for
by the time you get near the middle of it
the whole construction is rocking to and
fro like o swing, making you feel very
much as if you were an acrobat dancing
upon Q slack rope,-Dayid Ker ia New

Mount Hope Nursery, near Washington,

Memorial Poem written by Mrs. NJ. B. Will
iams and read at the Memorial Services
at Opelousas, La, Dec. 18th, 1889,

A wall of woe comes to the waning year,
The echo of nations lamentation,
And through the solemn burial march we heal
The muffed heart beats of mourning notion
Aye we mast mourn though a heroic soul
Passes Deaths portals to deathless goal.
Yes, grief is ours, for never yet did man
Bear with more majesty such wrong and ban
He stood vicarious sacrifice for all,
His peoples errors, vanquished aims and fall.
And weighted with them, and the yictor's hate
In chains he drained the chalice of or Fate.
Oh. friends that record OF his life's white page
Reads like strain from some heroic age,
So grand in desOlation, while the light
OF his Unfettered soul shone from a height
No prison bars could reach.
Mourn him, dear God
We mourn him not as souls beneath the rod,
But with uplifted heads as those who see
Beyond the cross the crown.
Yes, he has gone, but Death cannot bereav'
OF one sole thing which made his patriot fame
1t simply loosed the chords OF pain which boun'
him.
And with life's chrism has touched his honoret
name.
A target for Hates arrows, sore they pierced
him
With deadly wounds, but high above their ke1
His great soul held its way, a faith upheld HIM
truth which gives the world its martyre
lnen.
Do they rejoice, the Blcst
When at their portals stand
Those who have borne the stress,
And the woe of Il vanqnlshcd Landf
Who have laid their hearts i'll the flame,
That the fires of Hate might spare,
The peoples they loved-the name
OF the land they held so fair!
| Then rejoice OH, noble Lee!
| He comes to the Patriot Band,
| jackson and Davis, the three
| Who are first i'll our hearts to-day.
| Rejoice that the strife is DER,
| The patient waiting is past,
And the lofty soul Oh Heavenly shore
| Has found its country at last!
| OH land which has reared such men,
| Your mourning robes are fecked
| With the gold of your heroes lives,
| And you hold your head erect
| And you say, my noble dead,
| "Never through days and years,
''Shall your story be left unsaid,
| whilst the sun of the Southland glows,
'And its midnight dews are wept,
| whilst the heart of the Southland thrills,
| "And its honor and truth are kept"
| We will mourn you, not with tears,
| And your memory pure and bright
| Like the beams from some sacred shrine,
Will fill the land with light.
