And Summer o'er the landscape lay? .< We knew not then the storm was near, Our hearts were troubled with no fear J Nor dreaded Autumn, cold aud sere! Your eyes are closed, my love, and yet , 1 strive to stifle vain regret, For earth nud Heaven lu thee are met. But can this be a last good-by. And will our love forever die? , In that pure land for which I sigh ? Anil can it be tbat lore forgets. When death u sea of silence sets J On pallid lips, and life's regrets? Shall not the purer things we knew Live on. grow grander and more true, In this life which has come to you ? Dear love, the mystery I would see, The longed for, is reality? To you, but not yet, dear to me. Content I am to wait 'till when My hand shall clasp your hand ngain? And then, ob, my dead darling, then ! Q-U^ISTOSL PHCETVIX GUANO.

March 7. i!t / rHESE Spectacles are manufactuaed from "MINUTE CRYSTAL PEBBLES," melted together, and art railed DIAMOND on account of their hardness and trtlUtoej. It is well known that Spectacles cat from Brazilian or icotch Pebbles are very injurious to the eye, because of their polarizing effect. *. Having been tested with the polarscope, the diamond lenses have been found to admit flfteen per cent, less seated rays than any other pebble. They are ground with great scientific accuracy, are Free from chromatic al>errations, and produce a brightness and distinctness of vision not before attained in Spectacles. Manufactured by the Spencer Optical Manufacturing i'omnsnv. New York. For sale bv J. A. YOUNG, camnen, s. v.. From whom they can only be obtained. No peddlers employed. The great demand for these Spectacles has Induced unscrupulous dealers to palm an inferior and spurloos article for the ' Diamond."
