Resting.

In his chamber of peace where the river rolls on
With majestic sweep toward the sea,
Everlasting hills throw their shadows down,
Steadfast sentinels-fit emblems of thee.
Calmly sleep, thy battles for aye are DER;
Loved chieftain. we lay thee to rest
wars rude alarum may arouse never more.
Meekly folded thy hands on thy breast.
No dream of conquest unsheathed thy sword.
Our country's dire need was the call
And patriot hearts thrilled in stern accord.
That no star from its azure should fail.
Warrior or statesman, at thy country's behest.
Genius held in worldwide renown,
Thou bequeathed to us, and the world. the best
lmmorteles, fadeless. lasting crown.
Thine achievements wreathed into deathless fame
No monarch ere hath earned,
And children $ children bless thy name.
For the divine in man they have learned.
Great heart yet tender as a little child.
Courage sublime, knowing no surcease,
Magnanimous victor, in accents mild
Proclaming-"Letu us have peace
To thy mausoleum we come with no lore,
But the hearts unfeigned love
For thee, who our country's travail bore,
With patience like that from above
Not alone one nations shrine thy tomb,
In all climes the wide world round,
Old Tyranny reign hast heard his doom,
By thy valor held and bound.

MISCELLANY.
Use of Flowers.

MARY Howitt's familiar poem
God might have made the earth bring forth
Enough for great and small,
The oak tree and the cedar-tree.
Without flower at all.
We might have had enough, enough
For every want of ours.
For luxury, medicine, and toll
And yet have had no flowers.
The ore within the mountain mine
Requireth none to grow,
Nor does it need the lotus flower
To make the river flow.
The clouds might give abundant rain,
The nightly dews might fall
And the herb that keepeth life in man
Might yet have drunk them all.
Then wherefore wherefore were they made
And dyed with rainbow light,
All fashioned with supremest grace,
Upspringing day and nighti
Springing in valleys green and low,
And on the mountains high,
And in the silent wilderness,
Where no man passeth byy
Our outward life requires them not,
Then wherefore had they BIRTH
To minister delight to man
To beautify the earth.
To comfort man. to whisper hope
Whenever his faith is dim,
For whose careth for the flowers,
Will much more care for Him.

A Pathetic Ballad ofTim,ly Interest

Father, dear father, come home with me
now, for ma has some carpets to beat she's
got all the furniture out in the yard, from
the front door clean out to the street. The
stove must come down and be put in the
shed, and the yard must be cleared of some
grass, for it's time to clean house and the
DEVILS to pay-and the front windows need
some new glass. Father, dear father,
come home with me now, and bring some
bologna and cheese, it's most Il o'clock
and there's nothing to eat-I'm so hun
cry I'm weak in the knees. All the dinner
we'll have will be cold scraps and such, and
We'll have to eat standing up, too, for the
table and all are out in the back, oh, wish
that housekeeping was through. Father,
dear father, come home with me now, for
ma is as mad as a Turk; she says that
you're only lazy old thing, and that she
shall put you to work. There's painting
to do and paper to hang, and the windows
and casing to scrub, for it's housekeeping
time and you've got to come home and
revel in suds and cold grub. Hutchinson

The True once ofPrsver.

What end, then, is served by petitionary
prayer for the things God knows we need,
and that He wills to bestow? Surely no
thinker is unaware that verbal expression
has much to do with both clearness of
thought and the concentration of attention
and will. 1t is reason enough for engaging
in petitionary prayer, that the confession
in words of our wants to God enables and
pledges us in a clearer consciousness to
work out more reverently and patiently
the Divine conditions of their supply. Thus
it is that through prayer the individual
will strive toward unity with the universal
will To impute to the leaders of religious
thought today the crude, primitive fancy
of bending the Divine will into line with
the human is unworthy of any who profess
to keep abreast of the worlds advancing
intelligence. The true function of prayer
is to lift the will of man into line with the
will of God. This it does by its effect in
clarifying moral insight, deepening rev.
erent convictions of responsibility, and ded-
icatlng self more thoroughly to Divine ends,
which can be accomplished in the world
no sooner or more fully than men devote
themselves to their fulfiment. -Rer. James
