In one resvect have we been called!
upon to suffer, in common with the great |
bulk of mankind, Death has’ been more
than usually busy in our town, Ile has |
this year culled in the fairest gardens, |
and cut down among the choicest trees. .
The tall and strong, the loved and cher- |
ished, they who seemed secure because |
of their strength, and they who in. their
weakness were most shielded and watch-
ed, have alike proved the correctness of,
the archers’ aim. From ibroad, also, |
evil tidings have come, penetrating the |
family circle, ‘The mother has wept be- |
cause the sea has refused to |
“Give back the lost and lovely; him for!
whom |

The place was kept at board and hearth so

long;

For whom the prayer went up thro’ midnight's |
breathless gloom, |

And the vain yearning woke midst festal song.”

Of her children

| The sea, the blue lone sea hath one,

He lies where pearls lie deep,
Ile was the loved of all, yet none
Over Hite low bed may weep.”
Surrounded by a year's blessings, these
events occupy a sad plage. We won.
