THE MATERIALIST.

written for YHE IRISH STANDARD.)
He stood beside the restless sea
And watched it's wild waves mount in elee
And break with laughing sound
While, fading from the Western sky,
The glow of eve began to die
And shadows steal around.
Alone he stosd and unused; Oh soul
Why Is it that thy fancies roll
Like waves upon the sea,
Now dashing 'Rainst barren hope,
Now sweeping thro the bound!ess scope
OF dark eternity.
Mark how the suns last fertile raw
Melts in the ether far away
Before the deepening gloom:
80 shall thy' hope that now would soar,
When pain and death are found no more,
Be lost within the tomb.
Then leave my poor racked brain in peace,
OF future pain or pleasure cease
10 din into my ears.
hetconscience Iadened with grave doubt,
And qualms untold az last And out
Oblivion Of it's fears
That sweet Oblivion known TO those
Who moulder careless of lifes woes
Where gentle ivies creep;
Forgetful Of the stormy past,
Resting their weary minds at last
In an eternal sleep.
Why make me feel keen remOrse,
If nothing better. nothing worse,
Than this life is thy goal2
Tis vain that conscience points within
To hideous spots ana stains of sin
Vain is Thy faith, OH soul.
Then grant this boon, Oh set me free
From tolls Of doubt and mystery,
Give Ger thy trust insane,
And all this strife will have Al end,
And peace like spell of night descend,
To calm my troubled brain.
What! thou wilt scorn my hearts request,
And never grant the wished for rest,
But rack me as before!
Go then and prove what thou would'st feel
I'll stay thee not this glittsring steel
Will ouen wide the door.
Next morn CHASTITY corpse was found,
Wcoed by the knocking waves that wound,
Their foam wreathes Ger its hair:
Upon the pailid face upturned,
Awakening beams Of light discerned
An image of despair.

U Nay, the grave Is dark and dreary.
But the lost one Is not there;

Floating on the ambient air?
It Is near thee. gentle mother, s
\ Near thee at the evening hour:
Ib soft kiss is In the zephyr.
Itlooks UP from every flower.
And when nights dark shadows feeting.
Low thou bendest thee in prayer.

Then thy angel babe is there!
Maiden, has thy noble brother,
On whose manly form thine eye
Loved full oft in prize to Enger,
On whose heart thou cou,d'st rely.
Though all other hearts deceived thee,
All proved hollow. earth grew drear.
Whose protection. ever DER thee,
Hid thee from the cold worlds SHEER
Has he left thee here to struggle.
All unaided on the way?
Nay. he still can guide and guard thee,
Still thy faltering steps can stay;
Still, when danger hovers DER thee,
Ee than danger 10 more near;
When in grief thou'st none to pity,

Lover, is the light extinauished
Of the gem, that. in thy heart
Hidden deeply, to thy being

Look above! tits burning brighter
Than the very stars in heaven:
And to light thy dangerous pathway,

With the sons Of earth commingling,
Thou the loved one may'st forget;
Bright eyes fashi' &, tresses waving,
May have power to win thee yet:
But cen then that guardian spirit
Oft will whisper in thine ear,
And in silence, and at midnight,
Thou will know she hovers near.
Orphan, thou most sorely stricken
OF the nourners thronging earth.
Clouds half veil thy brightest sunshine;
Sadness minRles with thy mirth.
Yet although that gentle bosom,
Which has pillowed oft Thy head.
Now is cold. thy mothers spirit
Cannot rest among the dead:
Still her watchful eye ia DER thee
Through the day, and still at night
Hers the eye that guards thy slumber.
Making thy young dreams so bright.
Oh! the friends, the friends we've cherishe
How Oft we weep to see them die!

AN AFRICAN CATHEDRAL.
Dedicated to St. Louis Who Died Near
Where the Edifice stands.


Where the Edihce stands.
A few days hence, writes the est.
Jamess Gazette" Cardinal Lavigerie
will consecrate the new cathedral which
has been built among the ruins OF Car
thage. The Cathedral stands on the
Byrsa, in the centre of the Acropolis,
md is said to make a very striking ap-
pearance with it's dazzling white towers
and ninarets. It's architecture is q
mixture of Roman and Byzantine; it is
built of the brilliant white chalky-
looking Maltese stone, and seems to de-
serve the description of the most
important religious building in all
Africa. Within the Cathedral is divided
into nave, transepts, and gallery, and
the roof is supported upon l42 columns
Of white Carrara marble. The wood
work is of pitch-pine, and the walls
are decorated with lovely Tunisian
faience. The ceiling has been painted
with rich profusion of arabesques.
The Cathedral is dedicated to St. Louis,
who died upon a spot not far distant.
Beneath The altar, and at the very foot
of his episcopal throne Cardinal Law
gerie has had constructed the tomb in
which he desires to be inferred. Upon
the marble slab in the floor, which
marks the entrance to the vault, il
already inscribed the following epitaph
in Latin:

CHICAGO, Jan. ~. General Crook was
interviewed this afternoon with reference
to the dispatches in the Pacific coast

of the Chiricuh,a Apachcs to the Indian
Territory. With reference to the charge
that Chatta was not faithful. and that
while serving "A scout hc furn islcd the
hostilcs with ammunition, and in Information.
General Crook said: "rhis is all false.
These stories bcing circulated for "a
purpose. Chatta was not only faithful,
hut IL Was due entirely to efforts of his
Indian scouts that the hostiI"s under
Natchexe and Geronimo surrendered tai
me i'm March, 1885,. Thcr, over
ninety of the hostilcs who surrendered at

ccc'icd in securing the surrender Of the
