| Usher, in his "Epistle Of the Irish

| to great land to the west Of Ireland, in

the birth of Columbus, in France, the

| the romantic imaginations Of the poets
exaggerated the original accounts until
| the story assumed the characteristics Of
something similar to Grecian mythology.
Thus we find Longfellow commenting on
the tabled portion Of the journey, which
appears in an old Flemish poem, which
he ascribes tc the Twelfth century.
Rev. Caesar Otway, an Irish Episcopal
ian clergyman and writer of some note,
says that the people in the vicinity of St..
Brendan's home pointed out to him the
spot from which tradition says St. Bren-
dan sailed, in Tralee bay, and told him
how it had been handed down from faith

Stream, possibly returning to Ireland
The fact that st. Brendan sailed west

after a long and tedious voyage, is fire.

by Sir Isaac Newton who examined into

Supported by such authorities as these
it will undoubtedly need some stronger

The Graves of a Household.

They grew in beauty, side by side,
They filled one home with glee;
Their graves are severed, far and wide,
BY mount, and stream, and sea.
The same fond mother bent at night
Ger each fair sleeping brow;
She had each folded flower in sight
Where are those dreamers now!
One midst the forest of the West,
BY a dark stream is laid
The Indian knows his place of rest
Far in the cedar shade.
The sea, the blue lone sea, hath one
He lies where pearls lie deep.
He was the loved of all, yet none
Ger his low bed may weep.
One sleeps where southern vines are
dressed
Above the noble slain;
He wrapt his colors round his breast,
On hlood-rc,l field of Spain.
And one--o'cr her the myrtle showers
It's leaves by soft winds famed;
She faded midst Italian flowers
The last of that bright band
And parted thus they rest, who played
Beneath the same green tree:
Whose voices mingled as they prayed
Around one parent knee!
They that with smiles lit up the hall,
And cheered with song the hearth
Alas! for love, if thou vert ALL
And naught beyond oh Earth:
