She flits like some fair, silent ghost Betwixt the day and night, A& mantle mistr as a cloud Droops from her shoulders white; A peaee which she shallnever know Breathes wheresoever she may go. She peers through leaf-eecked cottage panes With sad and searching eyes, She gases over lonesome waves That see but solemn skies. She wanders over wide gray moors, She looks through dim cathedral doors. Thligt touch of her garment's hem Folds sety the field brakes. The poppies In her pale hand sleep, Bsthr'hot heart awakes. A hush fslls with her stilly feet, Loader her fevered pulses beat. '%idpalace towers, is prison cells, By rivers still and fair, By restless brooks, o'er highways dim, She wanders everywhere. While her dark eyes with tears grow blind For one whom she shal never fnd. Oh, hanted maiden, cease thy search; Forget and be at rest. She who waits not on Love or Hope Alone, alone is blest. The old enchante's tale is true, Who follows Love is sure to rue, Bat on she speeds, and soon is lost Within uight's strange dark gate, The wind that lstans, moans and moans. I know not of her fate. I only know that it is trse Who follows Love is sure to rue. -Susan H. Swett, in Good Compauy. BACCALAUREATE SERMON. pssiaed by Iev. Hawkins, a .A, Befor9 the adamtg Class of Newberry C lege, Sunday, June 25, 1882. Txi : ".My zeal hath consumed ie ; because mine enemies hath for gotten thy word.e." Ps. cxix, 139. One of the peculiarities of the Bible is that while it is in every sense the most wonderful and pro -found book ever written, contain ing the moat original and astonish ing truths, the most important and wonderful doctrines, the profound eat philosphy and the deepest wii. dom, it, at the same time, is an eminently practical book, and while it imparts, nourishes, regu lates and controls the very highest and noblest form of life, it makes that life in all its developments and relations the most intensely practical. And, too, one of the distinguish ing characteristics of the age in which we live is that it is pre-. eminently a practical age. With a poble spirit of conservatism bind ing us to the past, and a spirit of __-~progress sufficiently active to util ize the accumulated experience of nearly six thonsand years, you, my young friends, stand-to-day at the threshold, ready to take your part in the great drama of -life, and it shall be my pleasure to direct your attention to the son timent suggested in the next, viz: Zeal and earnestness in the applica tion of the practical in life. 'To do good and to communi cate' is the groat central idea of the Bible in its man-ward view of life. Earnestness has its divine sanction in the gospel of the grace of God. It has its sublime pattern in the human Jesus. It has its complement in the grace of the gospel. It has its noble reward in the assurance of success, an ap proving conscience, the gratitude and praise of a generous world and the approbation of heaven. - The ever increasing needs of bu mnanity, and the numerous facil ities for relieving them, all indi cate that it is the rule of God that we make our lives a holy benedic tion to the race. Never were the woes and mise ries of humanity brought so near toour doors ; never did they ap peal with greater force to our sympathies ; and never were the .fcilities for their alleviation greater than at present. Life, it is true, has its burdenu, but God in His providence raises up men out of the exigencies of the times to assist humanity over the ills of life ; and failure is always trace able to a want of a recognition of the necessities of the times and the superintending providence or God. Heaven assists those who strive to succeed ; and many men, prompted by the spirit of zeal within them, have drawn facilities fr'rn the very exigeUcies of the times, and so used them as to make the ago in which they lived the starting point of influences that gave direction and complec. tion to the future history of the world. Hence, we most be observant of the times. As emergenoiea arise and facilities present themiselves men either sieze hold of tb.n and rise with them to honorand use, fulness, or neglect them, and by them, are buried in obscurity. Men are the .aabitet -their own frtunes; and, *ile 'there is a destiny that shapes our ends,' there is also a co-operative en ergy necessary on our. part that develops the providence and in sures %uccess. Not for a moment would we have you indulge fogetfulness of a superintending providence; for it is only in a recognition of such a providence that all history finds it significance. It is that providence which produces the ebb and flow in the tide of human affairs, and furnishes the means for a successful voyage of life. Providpce sent the flood upon the antediluvians i and Noah, co operating with providence, pFsp with the emergency and was car ried over the breach and made the father of a new world ; while those who disregarded tbe provi. dence were swept away by the deluge. The licentiousness of the six teenth century made a reforma tion necessary in the moral world ; the super}ntonding providence of God raised up a Luther, wbo bpld ly laid hold of the facilities for the work which the very exi gencies of the times furnished, and ;,hns grandly rose above all oppoition. Oppresion of the Arnerican col oiies rendered necessary tho haezardous work of r':voiution, and God raised up a leader who found, w here least expected, the means of working out our glorious in dependeore, and thus it is that history, interpeted in the light of an over-ruling providence, is found self-interpreting, and fur nisbes ample material for new history. You, then, my young friends, have ample means at yonr dispo sal for workicg out a gloriousi deitiny. The age in which you live ; the facilities at your com mand ; the increasing amount of wrong and misery and wi etched ness consequent upon a forgetful ness of God's word ; the violation of God's law, domestic, social, political and moral, with its con sequent evils and miseries, should so prey upon your spirits as to cause you to consecrate your lives, with all the earnestness of which you are capable, to the great interests of our common humanity. Do not think, for .a moment, that the field is already occupied, and that there is no room for you. Do not imagine that your work will Dot be appreciated because ol the advanced state of society, and that so much, has aleady been done. These things are all in your favor. When were the greatest statesmen produced 1 Was it not when law and good order had attained that eminence in the estimation of the world which commended them to the most enlightened nations of the world ; and after they had be come objects of interest in the estimation of the good and the wise ? When did the arts and sciences attain tbeir highest poin1 of development? Was it nol after they began to be patronized by men of learning, refinemen t and taste, and liberal inducements were held Out for men of talen1 and genius to devote their lived and fortunes to their fuller devel opment ? So it was with arcbi tecture, painting and sculpture, and so it has ever been in' every department of industry. We can but congratulate you young gentlemen. op your for'tu nate surroundings in this respect This nineteenth century happilj Mtinerva's brain.
