A LESSON IN ART.

There is a green hill far away,
Without the city wall.
Where our dear Lord was crucilt1i'
Who died to save us all.
I'VE may not know, we cannot oen
What pains he had to bear,
But we believe it was for us
He hung and suffered there!
He died that we might be forgi'eH'
He died to make us good!
That we might 20 at last TO heaven
Saved by His precious tiood.
There was no other gooi enough
To pay the price OF sin;
He only could unlock the gate

And we must love Him, too
And trust in His redeeming DioOu'
And try His works to do" .,r.

GoODBY.

Goodby, proud world! I'm going home,
Thou'rt not my friend, and I'm not
thine,
Long through thy weary crowds roam
A riven oak on the oceans brine;
Long I've been tossed like the driven
foam,
But now, proud world, I'm going home.
Goodby to fiattery's fawning face;
To grandeur, with its wise grimace;
TO upstart wcalth's averted eye;
To supple Office, low and high;
To crowded lalls, court and street;
To frozen heart and hast'ing feet;
To those who go and those who come
Goodby, proud world, Pm going home
I'm going home to my own hearthstone
Bsomed in yon green hills alone
A secret nook in pleasant land
Whose grove the frolic fairies planned;
Where arches green the livelong day
Echo the blackbird's roundelay.
And vulgar feet have never trod-
A spot that's sacred to thought and
God.
Oh, when I'm safe in my sylvan home
l tread on the pride of Greece ana
Rome,
And when I'm stretched beneath the
pines
Where the evening star so holy shines
/ laugh at the lore and pride OF man.
At the sophist schools and the learned
clan.
For what are they all in their nign
conceit
When man In the bush with God ma!
meet?
