POETRY.From the New Orleans Sunday Times. TOWARD HOME. How shall you and 1 appear When our souls and bodies sever; Shall we live as we do here In the house of the Forever? Shall our spirits feel no tread, And our lives meet no disaster, When at last we come to tread On the floors of the Hereaf.er? What high art shall serve to cheer When life's earthen bowl is broken; What hath-Sense to conquer fear; What hath Hope for sign or token ? Shall our love grow faint or fail, Or our friendship die ol fasting, When we cross the shadowy vale To the halls of Everlasting? Shall we clasp the friends we love, tfarborfond delights we cherish ? El Are dear hearts in want above For the hour when we shall perish) Shall rejoicing shouts arise, lei Echoed with a joy supernal, wi v? manil n ml nn.^nla/t f L' !??T }] P Ill lilt' glUIIU aiiu pvwjuvu 0mvW| _-r Through the corridors Eternal. do Shall we meet and shall we share Joys with dear ones here beside us? ^ Shall there be no parting there Whatsoever fate betide us; ' U*j Will our beings overflow, ' Soon as we shall touch its shore, With delights we can but know In the land of Evermore. an ye All I ask brings forth as guests 'J'] Angels without mental tasking; In what our desire suggests Q] The thought answers to the asking, You and I from care and care, ])( When we reach the golden portal, ]>j Shall each other's glory share Ih the groves of the Immortal. y j Sc Father loves us all-below? Each as if an only ohild; Well the happy shore I know Where lov* liveth undefilcd - ------ toi Well I know the happy snoreFlecked its waves with snowy laughter? We shall dwell to mourn no more In the homes of the Hereafter. P' THE * ~ LANCASTER LEDGER.
