Goodbye, dear mother, in thy coffin bed
We've laid thee down to rest.
Those weary, loving eyes are closed
And thou art with the blest.
Death is the conqueror's welcome home,
The heavenly city's door,
The entrance of the world to come,
'Tis life forevermore.
Thou art at rest, yet still we weep,
For lonely seem all days to come.
Not all our love and care could keep,
Thee with us on this earth.
We bow our heads in silent grief,
We kiss the Christening rod
Yielding, dear Saviour, to thy will
Not ours, but thine Oh God.
Our hearts are sad and lonely,
And our home is dark and drear,
For the voice is stilled forever
That we loved so well to hear.
But no, we would not bring thee back,
The sufferings. you have borne, to bear
But we would follow in thy track
And meet thee over there.
And may we, with sweet submission
Bear like her, our earthly pain,
Till life's over and we meet her
Face to face in Heaven again.
MRS. c. G. SPILLER.

fine powers, but disclose hard and accur-
ate application to all the minute details OF
expression which go to complete the per-
feet rendering. His versatility is quite

cumstances, throwing his whole soul into
his theme and carrying his audience with
him. We speak for him success, and rec
ommend him heartily.
