No Atheism on the Ocean.

We once heard one of our Catholic
>chaplains Of the navy say that sailors
were, as a rule, men Of deep religious
feeling, and his words are recalled to
our mind by an article in a recent
issue of the New York Evening Post
wherein occurs this passage:
Atheism, it is safe 10 say, could not
live afloat. On shore, particularly in
our cities, we see so much of the work
of man and so little of the power of
Goo, we see mind everywhere victori-
Gus over matter, that we lose faith in
a higher power. and are tempted to
look with skepticism upon the exist
ence Of an Almighty. At sea it is
exactly otherwise. There mankind
appears in his true proportions to his
Maker, and in the presence of the
painless and all-powerful waters there
is forced home upon you the weak
ness Of man and the inignificance of
all his skill and cunning before the
irresistible power of the ocean,"

Where first within thy timid ear

The birds we loved still tell their tale
OF music on each spray,
And still the wild rose decks the vale
But thou art far away.
In vain thy vanished form seek
BY wood and stream and dell,
And tears of anguish battle my cheek
Where tears of rapture fell,
And yet beneath these wildwood bow
Dear thoughts my soul employ,
For in the memory Of past hours
There is q mournful Joy.
Upon the tir thy gentle words
Around me seem to thrill,
Like sounds upon the wind-harp's
chords
When all the winds are still,
Or like the low and soul-like swell
OF that wild spirit tone
Which haunts the hollow of the bel.
When it's sad chime is done.

In sweet, low murmurs now.
I seem to feel thy breath Of flame
Upon my cheek and brow.
On my cold lips feel thy kiss,
Thy heart to mine is laid
Alas that such a dream of bliss
Like other dreams must fade!
