The Hand of LtncoIu

Look on this cast and know the hand
That bore a nation in its hold:
from TINS mute witness understand
what Lincoln was-how large of mold
The man who sped the woodmans team,
And deepest sunk the plowman's share
And pusht the laden raft astream
OF fate before him unaware
This was the hand that knew to swing
The ax-sinee thus would Freedom train
Her son.-and made the forest ring.
And drove the wedge, and toiled amain
Firm hand, that loftier Office took
conscious leaders, viii obeyed.
And when men sought his word and look,
with steadfast might the gathering swayed.
No courtier's, toying with a sword
Nor minstrels. laid across a lutte;
A chiefs, uplifted to the Lord
When all the kings of earth were mute!
The hand OF Anak, sinewed strong
The fingers that on greatness clutch;
Yet 10! the marks their lines along
of one who stroye and suffered much.
For here in knotted cord and vein
| trace the varying chart OF years;
/ know the troubled heart, the strain,
The weight of Atlas-and the tears.
That palm erewhile was wont to press;
And now tits furrowed deep, and now
Made smooth with hope and tenderness.
For something OF formless grace
This nodded outline plays about;
A pitying fame, beyond our trace,
Breathes like spirit, in and out
The love that cast an aureole
Round one, who, longer TO endure,
Called mirth to his ceaseless dole,
Yet kept his nobler purpose sure.
Loi as / gaze. the statured man,
Built up from yon large hand. appears,
type that nature wills TO plan
But once in all peoples years.
What better than this voiceless cast
To tell OF such a one as he
Since through its living semblance past

The Oldest Song of An.

When life is youth. and skies are glad.
And everything is young,
Oh, listen, listen, lass and lad,
Unto the song that's sungi
When every sound you hears a tune,
That seems your heart to call,
When every gift Of Gods a boon,
And loves the best OF all.
There's green around and blue above,
Wherever you are bound;
'Tis then that first you feel 'tis love
That makes the world go roundl
But when your world grows gray and sad,
When care the heart has wrung
oh, listen. listen, lass and lad,
Unto the song that's sung
When smiles have turned 10 tears and sighs
When hands you eiasped are cold,
And those whose love has been 6 prize
Are weary, worn, and old
II one dear gift, the rest above,
Still by your side be found,
'Tis then you know, indeed 'tis love
That makes the world 90 round.

Autumn.

Along the leaf strewed paths | walk
Recalling Summer days;
Not in a mood fer human talk,
| ponder Natures ways.
Till Summer parted with her breath,
No Autumn's sun could shine;
s.There is no life but comes from death,
Said Plato the divine.
Then. Autumn. deem not all thine own
These splendors which we see,
For had we not the Summer kaowl
These splendors could not be.
We love to see your banners rcd
Which Summer helped to weave.
And ev'ry canvas Summer spead
Thy gorgeous tints receive.
Yet all thy splendors but presage
The desolaiion near,
For Nature though she did engage
You, artist of the year,
Will send a rude and vandal band
Ere the new year is born,
Whose ruthless ravage through the land,
win blast what you adorn-
Hsrsher than Summers seems thy fate;
For her thou didst caress,
And showed her as she fingered late
The utmost tenderness.
To thee, when summoned hence to leave,
No kindness viii be shown;
For hesrtiess Winter cannot grieve
For all thy splepdor flown.

The GoId-seekers.

The painting steamer slowly drops
Away from the crowded pier;
The blsckened decks reeede from view
And leave me musing here.
Away where the gold 50 warm and red.
Lies hid in the dark earth's breast;
Little they reck of danger and cold,
Aglow with the golden quest

Ia his manhood's early dawn.
The pale man with the students stoOp,
The stalwaIt man OF Drawn.
All. each and all. with fevered gaze
Fixed on the fields Of gold;
All, well-a-day, for faith that's firm
And heart that is brave and bold.
For those there be who will come again,
All broken and worn and wan,
While others left in the Arctic SHOWS
viii slumber forever on.
And some viii empty-handed come,
Who have missed the golden goal.
And some with gold too dear, alas,
The price of 4 sinless soul.
And those at home will SIT at night
And the wind sweeps where it wills
With hearts away in a shsmbling shack
In the wild Alaskan hills
'Tis thus muse on the lonely quay.
Whence the hurrying crowd is gone
Whilst far away for the frozen North
flag of smoke trails on.

New York Nocturncs.

Charles G. d. Roberts has hitherto been
known as a poet of the woods and fields.
His little book of songs, New York Noe
turnes," will be a surprise to many of his
readers.
"Nocturnes" describes these lyrics with
precision. They are. soft and slow in
movement and dainty in diction. They re-
mind one of moonlight on the roofs of a
great city, as it looks to watcher sitting
like Teufelsdrockh, in tower, alone with
the stars.
There is human thought and feeling In
them, but of subdued kind. A more
forcible contrast to the Songs of Ac-

She is braver than the bravest, she is truer than

She asks not if the soldier struck for red and

She asks not If he fell beneath the yellow and

She is mother to the wounded; she is sister to
the dead.
The victor's cheers ring in her ears, but these
she does not heed
The victims means and dying groans are gwen
as he- need,
And many suffering hero chokes his blind and
sullen curse
To smooth it to blessing for the Red Gross
