Dark waa tho battle-field?dark with the car

Moaninga of anguiah, moaninga of pain.
Tale gleamed the moonlight o'er the dead

Hoof-trodden, scarred bj the aword and the

All showed the place where the foeman
had striven;
Mournfully mingled the laurel and cypress,
llmken hearts wept for the ties that were
riven.
Fad sighed the Wind Spirit 'raid the lone

Sad as a requiem or dirge for the slain;

The Parting Hour
The hoar is coining, and it ia a fearful
and solemn hour, even to the wisest and
the best, the hour is coming, when we
must bid adieu to the scenes which
please us, to the famillsa we lore, to the
friends we esteem. Whether we think
or whether we think not, that body which
is now warm and active with life, aball
be cold and motionless in death?the
countenance must be pale, the eye must
be closed, the voice must be silenced,
the senses moat be destroyed, the whole
appesrsnee must he changed by the remorseless
hand of our last enemy. Wc
may banish the remembrance of the
weakness of our human nature, we may
trCmhle at the prospect of dissolution j
1 - - - - ?
run our reiucianeo 10 renecl upon it, and
our attempts to drive it from our recollection,
arc in Tain. We know that wo
arc sentenced to die, and though wc
sometimes succeed in casting off for a
season the coovlction of this unwelcome
truth, we never can entirely remove it.
The reflection haunts us still, it haunts
na in solitude, it follows us into society,
it lies down with us at night, it awakens
with us at morning. The irrevocable
doom has passed upon us, and to^ well
do we know it, "Dust thou art, and unto
dust thou sbalt return."
I,iric Without Love. ?Wa sometimes
meet with men who seem to think
that any indulgence in an affectionate
feeling is a weakness They will return
from a journey and treat their families
with a distant dignity, and move among
their children with the cold and lofty
splendor of sn iceberg surrounded by its
fragments. There is hardly a more unnatural
sight on earth than one of those
families without a heart. A father had
better extinguish a boy's eyes than take
away bis heart. Who that has eipcri
(MM lb* joys of friendship, and vilow
sympathy and affection, would not rather
lose all that ia beautiful in nature's
scenery than be robbed of the hidden
treasures of bis heart f Cherish, then
your heart's best affections. Indulge ia
the warm and gushing emotions of filial,
parental and frugal lore.

j many such. The husband, who goes J
home from the weary routino and the ;
perplexing cares of business with a cheer- .
ful smile and a loving word for his invalid
wife ; who brings not against her the |
grievous sin of her sickness, snd reproaches
her not for the cost or discomfort
thereof; who sees in her languid
eye something dearer than girl's laughter;
in the sad face and faded cheeks J

cheerfully, never dreaming that she is a
heroine, much less a martyr; who bears]

table, nor feel an curthquake in every
family jar; who sees her husband united
with herself inditsolubly and eternally {
in their children ? she, the wife in every
truth iu the inward as in the outward, is
the heroine, though rather an unfashionable
type.
Ashamed to be Thought Poor.
Why should we be ashamed to lie
thought poor? or to have our poverty
known to the world? Is it because the
. outward respect of the world is graded
by wcultb, and the poor arc despised?

surely you can afford to he so without
