BEAUTIFUL LINES.

The following lines were written by Tyrone I’ower,the famous Il'lhll comedian. who perish- ed on the steamer President. They were inscribed on the wall ot'tllt- “Old Blundlord Church," near Peters-burg, \'n.: Thou art trembling ill the dust old pilel Thou art hztsti-niilg to thy full;

And around thee in tlly loneliness, Clings illc ivy to the wall.

The worshippers are scattered now, Who knelt before th shrine;

And silence reigns WK anthems rose, In days of “Auld Lang Syne.”

And sadly sighs the wandering wind, Where oft in years gone by. Prayers rose front many hearts to him, The Highest oftlic Iligll. Tllc trump of many in busy foot, 'I‘hut sought thy aisles is o'er, And llluny a weary heart around, Is still for evcrillure.

Ilow dotli lilnbition's hope (alto winul How droopa the spirit nowl We hear the distant l‘Ily'l d‘ln, The dead are mute below: The sun that. shone upon their paths, Now gllils their lonely graves, 'I‘llc zephyrs which once fanned their brows, The grain above them waves.

Olll could we cull the many bot-k Wllo’vc gathered here Ill villn,

Who've careless rovcil where we do now, Who‘ll never meet again:

How would our very hearts be stirred To meet the earliest gaze,

Of the lovely and the bountiful, The lights of other days!
