55* Home. Sweet Home. Night dropped her shadowy veil over London, end the mantle of mists that all day long had enveloped thecilv Srew more dense, and fell in headed rope of rain. The gas lights burned biightly at the corners, but it was a dreary night to be out in. Yet crowds filled the streets, for even in night storms the great throughfare* re never deserted. Guilt and wretchedness aro rlwaya wakeful and abroad.? To realize a desolation "of loneliness, one must be a stranger in a crowded city, with a sensitive nature, and a refinement that sinks fro.n rude contacts, and nuoongenial companionship. Alone in the country, with the blue sky above us, and the green grass be daath our feet, thero are charms that I woo us to forge*fulness. There ia music in the runninor stream, and hnanlv in tbe flowers that grow upon its banks. Some Gorman writer?I have forgotten wbo?has called flowers the stars of eartb, and stArs the flowers of heaven. Fair and radiant flowers the? are and shed their brightness on tbe smokewreathed city, but in ilieir ii'iaiCuleSs, soflened, and mellowed light, seem to lingbt more pleasantly on green fields and waving corn. Alone in London I Dreary and des olate reality, that swelled almost to bursting a weary and aching heart.? The stranger gathered his thin clonk around bis shivering form, and drew bis fico with a sensitive shrinking from the crowd that rudciy jostled past him. lie was alone in London, and very poor, not even a shilling to procure a scanty 6uppcr. Somcwhero in adatk part of tlio oily, whore the gas-lights were few, up many flights of sUirs, was the garret in which he slept, but in it there was nothing save the darkness, one broken chair, and a wretched bed with its scanty coveting.. When he entered this desolate chamber on nights like this, an unseen com* panv surrounded him. the spit its of the viewless air, and in the wailing ? f lite wind, they told him strange, mysterious tales of wretchedness and dread, until, half wild with dark imaginings, he ^...1 1 I--.L J vl T ? s ? rusueti lurui 1 it ine.mghi ami-tire pelting storm. Thus through (he eliding sleet and rain ho walked the streets, looking into the hard faces of the passcrr-liv, and woudering if, in all L-tndou there another man who had no one to care for him, no one to love him.? And then he thought how deliciutit.lv fclrange it would seem to him?a si ran ger and a wanderer for many years?to b? loved. l{e hoped the ble*.?ed light would dawn upon him, but in the darkness of litis night it seemed a great way off. The cloud of novelty and gloom that wrapped his heart was too cold and deep be feared, for human svmpathy and love to penetrate. lie seemed to see before him Fate, with weird lingers, weaving the mystic wtb of his lonely destiny, and as he watched the phantom with feverish intensity, he wondered that If, at eorae futuie day. "hat u mantle of brightness might fall upon him instead of a pall. A strain of sweet, sad music broke in lifrutt tii lonely musing--. Over all refined natures, music has An absorbing power, And though it often fills the soul with sadness, it casts upou it the spell of an irresistible fa?cinnlion ; and the stranger paused in bis desolate walk to listen to the song. The windows of the princely mansion wero hut half veiled and he could see the happy group that surrounded (he piano, and the fair girl that sang the soft minor Mir which ennk into (he listener's heart. He was a poet, and had written songs of tenderness and love for others to sing. jimisen, no could not sing wj?li such n weight upon hi* heart. The light * of genius was in his eye, and the imagery of a fervid imagination gathered around his brain, and the poet's native impulse, loving warm and true, lived within his heart. In the sensitive and gifted, the long ing for sympathy and love is far more intense than in ruder nature;, and all his life lor.g his heart had yearned with [>assiona'e eagerness* for the pure de ights of home, and the bliss or sympa thy and love. The song was over, hut still be tin gered, watching the firelight's ft fnl glow, as it shed it ruddy sheen upon the charging "roup. Again the lair girl took her seat At the piano, and sang with inimitable grace and beauty, the song, " Home, Sweet Home." It was hissing I He, the homeless wanderer, hr.d written M Home, Sweet Home." lie stood out in darkness and night listening to his song, the child of his v.*u iiokm nuu I/mill, mm IT1 HI the window of " Home, Sweet Hume." knew that in ell (he wotld (heie was no home for himThe song ended. lie sat down on tho stone steps of the stately mansion, with the rein healing heavily i>pon him ; and burying his face in his hands in the bitterness of his heart. Years passed away, aud still ho was a homeless wanderer. Often in the streets of London, Berlin and Pari*, he heard " Home, Sweet Home," which in all lands and all heart# had be* come a household word. Later in life he became consul to Tunis and died a stranger in a strange land. Never, save in his dtearun, had he known the bliss of " Uanae, Sweet Mome."
