Oh heart, my heart, how strange to yearn
MA Tri ovo
I With weepings bitter for thy long-lost
peace.
How strange to find thyself at heaven's
door,
Where all tears cease.
In the fair country where sin enters not,
And where abideth everlasting rest,
Think you, my soul, your sins shall be
forgot,
And ye be blest?
No more, no more' to hunger there for
love;
No more to thirst for blessings long
' ' denied,
"Thy face is. foul with weeping," but
above
Thcu shalt be satisfied!
What shall it be to feel all fair within!
Pure as the angels in the highest
heaven?
To feel no more temptation, and no sin
That (needs to bo forgiven.
No more repining?no more vain regret,
No longing to lie down and fall asleep;
Oh! heart?my heart?how strange when
ye forget
The way to weep!
Oh light divine, that shineth from His
face,
In the fair country that doth need no
? sun!
Oh! happy soul, be thankful that thy
?race
Is well-nigh run!
Boll, golden sun, roll swiftly toward
the West;
Dawn, happy day, when many woes
shall cease;
Come quickly, Lord?Thy people wait
? the rest '
Of Thino abiding peace.

U?ly Greg.?At the Detroit
house of correction, a year or so
ago, the high white-washed walls
of the corridors were furnished
with brackets and flower pots, to
relieve the monotony and take
away , some of the gloom. One
would scarcely think that the hard
looking, wicked men sent there for
robbery, burglary, arson and graver
crimes, would have cared for the
change, but they gladly welcomed
it. A rose, a genarium, or tulip, or
pink, seemed to bring liberty and
sunshine a little nearer, and to
drive the evil out of their hearts;
and it was a strange sight to see
hardened criminals watering and
nourishing the tender plants, and
watching their daily growth. Two
or three months before the brack?
ets were hung up, a prisoner came
from one of the Territories?an
old, sullen-looking, bad-tempered
man, convicted of robbing tho
mails. They called him "Greg,"
as short for Gregory, and it wasn't
long before they made it "Ugly
Greg." He was ugly. He refused
to work, cared nothing for rules
and regulations, and twenty-eight
days out of his first month were
spent in the "solitary" for bad be?
havior. He was expostulated with,
threatened and punished, but he
had a will as hard as iron. He
hadn't a friend in the prison, and
the knowledge of it seemed to
make him more ugly and despe
. rate.':'"Vyben the brackets were
hung upvthere was, one: to spare,
and it-was placed near the door of
. Ugly Greg's cell, until another spot
could be found. No one had any
hope that the old man'tf heart could
be softened, and Borne said that he
would, dash the flower-pot to the
floor. "When ho camo.in from the
shop a, hi? face expressed surprise
ni sight of the iiitie g^enrvH?-'bud
so ,$Q8e to the door of 'his1 cell. Hej
scented it, carefully placed it back,
and;it was noticed that the hard
lines melted out of his face for a
time. No one said anything tp
him; but ttie next morning, before
he parent to work, he carefully
watered the rose, and his eyes lost
something of their sullen .look.
Would you believe that the little
rose bush proved more powerful
than all the arguments and threats'
of the keepers? It did, strangely
enough^-As th? days went.by the
old man tost his obstinacy and
gloominess, and he obeyed orders
as Well and hs cheerfaily as the
His faco took
on a new ? ]fi a\ his > whole 'bearing,
chdngodVand the keeper looked'at
him and wondered if he could be
th? maiflrGrVS&. ?l 'four or ' five
months -before. He watched the
rose as a mother would watch
child, and it came to be understood
that it was his. "While some of the
other flowers died from want of
care, the rose tree grew and thrived
and made the old man proud. He
carried it into his cell at night and
replaced it in the morning, and
sometimes he would talk to it as if
it were a humau being. Its pre?
sence openoci hva. lonesome heart I
and planted good there, and from |
the day the bracket was hung up,
no keeper had the least trouble
with Ugly Greg.
A few weeks ago he was taken
sick, and when he w ent to the hos?
pital the rose tree went with him,
and was placed where the warm
sun could give it the nourishment
it needed. After a day or two it
was hoped that the old man would
get better, but ho kept sinking and
grew feebler. So long as his eyes
were open ho would watch the rose,
and when he slept he seemed to
dream of it. One day, when the
nurse found an opening bud, he re?
joiced as heartily as if his pardon
papers had arrived. The bud was
larger next day, and the rose could
be seen bursting through. The
flower pot was placed on his bed,
near the old man's pale face, that
he might watch the bud blossom
into a rose, and he was so quiet
that the nurse did not approach
him again for hours. The warm
spring sun glided in through the
bars and kissed the opening bud,
and then fell off in showers over
the old man's pale face, erasing
every line of guilt and ugliness that
had ever been raised.
At noon, the nurse saw that the
rose bad blossomed, and she whis?
pered in tho old man's car.* "Greg,
the rose has blossomed?wake up."
He did not move. She felt his
cheek and it was cold. Ugly Greg
was dead. One hand vested under
his gray locks, while tho other
clasped tho flower-pot, and the
new-born rose bent down until it
almost touched his cold face. His
life bad gone out just when his
weeks of weary watching for a
blossom were to be repaid; but the
rose tree's mission was accom?
plished.
