POETRY
TO A BLIND FRIEND.

 The beauties of the vale and nill,
 Dear friend, have not been tnine' The star, the flower by the Till,
 The sunsets golden wine Have never painted on thy brain
 Their splendors fresh from God Nor rain bows arching after rain
 Ger the dripping. blossomed sod Shut in a kingd m of their own,
 Thy gentle musings trace The grandeur of the deeps that moans
 The charm of form and face. The matchIess color of the roses
 The lily's stainless urn, The peaks where cling eternal SHOWS
 And distant suns that burn. Vet. patient one the awful dark
 That fate on thee bestowed Has kept thy soul to heavens high
 Thy feet on faiths fair road, And when I view thy helpIessness,
 Thy brow childlike and pure, 1 know there is gift of bIfss
 That sight may not secure. I know there is an Eden, dear,
 Whose magic palms can heal With fadeless light all gloom that here
 Has set its shadowed seal. And oh! what rapture 1t will be When angel fingers raise This curtain and thy clear eyes sec And, seeing, speak Gods praise. Will Chamberlain. In Springfield Re- publican.
