When our sires are turned TO dust.

Till we meet on Heavens shore.

As rare into each face,

But the time has come for parting.
And not one their grief can tell,

which no human tongue can utter.
Or no pen can ever tell.
For they know that they are drifting
Onward. onward with the tide.
And ere long they'!l all be sleeping
In the churchyard side by side.
But It's not with fear and trembling,
Like true soldiers ycn will 60,
A. your great Commanders bidding
To meet the unseen foe.
But, alas! the hour is aeeiing.
And the time hss come 10 part.

GEOGRAPHY OF HOLY LAND.
Splendid Address before bro""-
street League by DIR. Moore.

The entertainment Of the literary de-
partment OF the Broad-Street Methodist
church, which was held last night was
an unqualified success. The feature OF
the evening was an address by Rev.. Dr.
w. w. Moore, president OF Union Iheo-
logical Seminary. which was most neaIt-
ly enjoyed by the large audience piese,ni,.
DIR. Moore took for his subject, Inc
Philosophy of the Geography OF the HOY
Land" The speaker apologzed Tor tne
absence of a very material part OF ms
address-namely, map OF faies.i ,,,I
which he had prepared as an ACCOMPANY. ~.
ment to il and almost necessity 10
make his remarks entirely intelligipie.
He iokingly said his address was no,
nearly so formidable as his suD]ect, anu
begged his auditors not to be alarmeu al
the high-sOunding title. .,,. -,
The address however. was worthy VI
the subject and showed DIR. Moore III
very favorable light. indeed, as red
soner and speaker. He proved conclusive
ly that Palestine was created Tor lts SUD
seuuent history and use; IL was secliue .,,,
being cut off I'm every direction by nearly
impassable barriers; IL was central, pelns
the focal point of the three, great con.
tinentS of Europe, Asia, ana Africa, II
was cosmopolitan, having some OF ine
peculiarities of every climate ana peIns
suited to every occupation, hence IL was
possible here to produce a book whose
Imagery would fit all lands and all occu-
pations. ,-,.., so,-
The four great parallel physical Tea
lures of Pdlestne-the Mediterranean,
coast plain. the high mountain ranges "a
Lebanon and Anti-Lebanon, the ValIey
of the Jordan, and the higher MOUNTAIN
plain east of the Jordan. all extending
through Palestine from north to south
were eloduently dWelt upon as salleht
points of Bible history and as necessary
10 the divine plan. Peculiar sayings IN
the ministry of Christ were explained III
their connection with physical features OF
the country where used and shown 10
be very apt in their perfect adaptation
TO the circumstances well known 10 MS
hearers. ,.,..,, ,,,.
The address as whole, although hur-
ried I'm places for lack Of time, was one
TO make a deep impression on all VINO
heard It, and to encourage study ana III
