LIES T YESTERDAY.


Cold blew the east wind and thick fell the
As sat in my chair by the wood fires warm
glow,
The Pickering flames as they shootsu on
high,
Speak, fire, and tell me thy hooking flame;
Follow me in days past, say, am the same?
Dost thou see any change in the face once SO
Any tagging in footsteps that used to be
light?
Me thinks there are changes in this model of
clay, ,.,-.-,
Hearts that are broken, and hopes that are
Shattered from years that have all from me
fled.
Bright things Of my childhood, that fled all
too fast;
Bright things of my girlhood, of loves
tender glow,
All shattered and broken and heart bowed
down low.
What sad thoughts and memories thy fame
calls to mind.
Gladness and joy and sorrow combined,
Life's not all sorrow Joy enters too. -,
But NV dream is over, though it seems still
new.
Regrets for my life, be it free from all sin,
| Regrets of my past and what it might have
| been,
Loves but mirage that heckons and calls,
| Leads on to nowhere, yet tits joy after all.
Sneak. fire, and tell me the past and its gain
Show me the face that has caused all this
| pain,
| NV life has changed, my heart is dead,
| 1t no longer feels the past that has fled
Thy flame reminds me of loves first joy,
THY light of my loved one without alloy,
Thy shadows that darken the pathway o
life.
And leads on to sorrow, and the end of tn
strife. 80
Thy log of the heart that has burnt itsel
through,
Leaving only the ashes of love that wa
true;
l gather them up and throw them away,
Aud with them the memories OF life's yes
terdays

Lancaster, Pa, Feb. "a. - Prison
Keeper Fl. II. Moore was summoned
before .the court this morning, and
reprimanded for what the court declared
was, at least, gross carelessness. On
election day, Richard Tobin, a soldier
from Camp Meade, who had been con-
victed Of trying to wieck train, but
on whom no sentence was passed, was
released from Jail, and was voted as a
resident of the Second ward. He dis
appeared then, and the man who
vouched for him, a prison underkeeper,
was arrested for perjury. Prison Keeper
Moore explained that he got the names
mixed on the commitment papers OF
Tobir and one armed negro named
Boyer. The latter was under sentence
of six months, and Moore said he
thought the commitment was intended
for Tobin, and wrote the latter's name
on it above that of Boyer. The court
directed that no corrections be made
on commitment papers hereafter, except
by order of the court.

why a sum as Left for Work Among the
Indians.
Delaware Churchman.
The requests of Mrs. Judd to various
church objects within and without the
diocese go to emphasize the duty and
privilege in this respect of members of
the church. And yet alas how rare is
such remembrance of the church's
needs? | can only pray. most feryently
that her example may be quickly and
commonly followed.
The beguest to the diocese of 81, GOO
is fol the work of the diocesan mission
AIRY and education committee, and is to
constitute the Henry b. Judd fund,
the income of which is to be applied
annually 10 this work.
The bequest of So, 600 for work among
the Indians is of the nature of a rep.
aration of the wrong which Col. Judd
believed was done the Indians during
one of the wars waged against them,
when as loyal soldier he was obliged
to take part in their destruction In
this merciful provision for their con
version and enlightenment, he gave evi
dence of his loyalty as a Chi istiap. L
is altogether beautiful instance o
conscientious regard for duty to boil
church and State.
