At tw LIP When the cool dews are falling And night begins to lower,

With pleasant charms enthralling,

Some voice of saintly power—

Some angel voice that thrills us Vith strange and vague unrest, That sadiy, gently fills us With memories of the blest ; Then slowly. ealinly stills us, And soothes the aching breast ?

When Fancy is subtly weaving Her soft, magical chain,

When we of th’ past are grieving And living it o'er again —

When the world we are leaving Behind with sorrow and pain—

THR GA dees actY sees Wien Our SOTrTroWili sinning e ° Away from 1s we cast-— When our souls we are winning From the unloved past, And sadly are beginning To learn that lie flies past?

Come there not slowly creeping, I'rom out the gathering night, Forms the angels are keeping ‘That we may claim by right, For whom we oft are weeping When th’ morn grows rosy bright ?

Fair forms, not real bat seeming, Blue eyes that loving glance

In ours with glorious beaming, So sweetly to enhance

om % ,

The pleasant saintly dreaming Of the vision trance ?

Methinks ’tis thus those fair ones Commune with us alway,

That thus those smiling near ones Do guard us night and day,

That the spirits ot the dear ones Are ours forever and aye.

And while to us they’re clinging, In joy and peace and trust,

Sweetly to us they’re singing The notes of budding love,

In tones ‘like joy belis ringing,” Echeed by choirs above

Here in the hour of gloaming, ’Lone on the rocky shore,

I list’ to billows foaming, With their turbulent roar,

And my wild thoughts are roaming Till they rest evermore.

With her my heart holds dearest, So young, so fair, so gay,

Who of all is the nearest, Yet far, far, far away,

Whose name te me shines clearest, When night has banished day.

And through the twilight beaming, {n sweetness and love,

Like glorious spirit seeming, Borne by the peaceful dove,

Or pleasant, saintly dreaming Fresh from the courts above.

I see her fair face peering Into my tearfal eyes, A vision endearing Hiding life’s mysteries, And the sweet vision wearing, With glad unfeigned surprise,

To my arms springs so lightly, And finds its welcome rest,

Knowing that there it richtly Loving to linger best,

Shalt now forever brightly Reign queen within my breast.

And the golden haired treasure My lips doth sweetly press

In an entrancing measure Of kisses that ne’er grows less,

Till she who gives the pleasure My heart shall ever bless.

’Tis thus the spirits cheer us, Forever dear and true, They never coyly fear us, And soar beyond the blue, But constant hover near us, Pure as the gentle dew. S. M. B,

On the 9th of at Benares. Bombay, where, after a State dinner, he gave a reception to Parsees, Brahmins,

visited Allahabad, Agra and - Jey where he was received by the Maharajah, and an ele» int ride was taken to Amboor. The Generai was received at Delhi: with troops and salutes t Lucknow, on the ' 6th of March, a ball was given in his henor. /Onthe 8th he left Lucknow for Benares. ‘The scene was a brilliant, stirring and Oriental one. Aj! the British offieers, | under General Chamberlain, were at. the | station, and a line of 750 elephants was ‘drawn up at one side, and inspeeted by the ‘General. A battalion of European troops formed the guard of honor. As the General | deparied they gave a royal salute, dropping the colors, the band ; laying ‘* Hail Colum- | bia,’’ and a battery of artillery in am-ad- joining field firing 2! guns. -The ‘party reached Benares at 1) o'clock in the even- ‘ing, and were received by a guard of henor, the road tothe hous: of the Commissioner ‘being illuminated.

Somebody thinks he has discovered that |snow, when incorporated with dough, per- | forms the same oflice as baking powder or lyeast. ‘‘I have this morning for breal- |fast,” says the writer in the L£nglish Me- ichanic, ** partaken of a snow-raised bread | cake, made last evening as follows: The ‘Cake when baked weighed about three- {quarters of a pound. A large teaspoonful ,of fine, dry, clean snow was intimately stirred with a spoon into the dry flour, and ito this was added a tablespoonful of cara- ways and a little butter and salt. Then sufficient cold water was added to make the dough .of the proper usual consistence (simply stirred with a spoon, not kneaded by the warm hands), and it was immediate- ly put inte a quick even and baked three- quarters of an hour. It turned out both light and palatable. ‘‘ The reason,” adds the writer, ‘‘ appears to be this: the light mass of interlaced snow crystals holds im- prisoned a large quantity of condensed at- mospheric air, which, when the air is warm- ed by thawing very rapidly in the deugh, expands enormously and acts the part of carbonic acid gas in either baking powder or yeast. I take the precise action to be, then, not due in any way to the snow itrelf, but simply to the expansion of the fixed air lodged between the interstices ef the snow crystals byapplication of heat. This theory, if carefully followed out, may, perchance, give aclew to a simple and_ perfectly in- ecuous method of raising bread and pastry.” And stop the discussion asto whether alumn in baking powder is deleterious to health or otherwise.---Scientific American.

Business: Men Encouraging Tem- perance.

The first public meeting of the Business Men’s Society, for the encouragement of moderatlon in the use of intoxicating liquors, was held on Friday night at Chick- ering Hall, New York—Mr. F. B. Thurber in the chair. The large hall was filled to the doors, many ladies being present. Among the prominent persons on the plat- form were Dr. Crosby, Peter Cooper, Thur- low Weed, Dr. Frothingham, L. W. Bates, Henry W. Baldwin and Walt T. Whitman, the poet. After several new songs—which had been specially prepared by the society —had been sung, the chairman opened the meeting with an address, in which he ex- plained the objects of the society. The society proposes to administer three pledges as follows: First, a pledge of total abstin- ence ; second, a pledge not to drink intoxi- cating beverages during business hours ; third, a pledge not to partake of intoxicating beverages at the expense of any other per- son whatever, nor to invite another to par- take during a specified time.

Presidential Forecastings.

The New York Times of the 10th inst. publishes extended reports from every State in the Union, gathered by 170 -correspond- ents, on the Presidential question, showing Grant to be the favorite of the Republicans and Tilden of the Democrots. The Times claims that it is clearly apparent that the Grant movement originates with the masses, not with politicians, while Tilden is being forced upon the people against their will. Blaine seems te have seriously imjnred his standing among the Republican masses by his advocacy of the Anti-Chinese Bill. Out of 157 points from which advices have been received, Grant is the expressed cheiee of 130, Blaine of 10. Washburne, Gartield, Sherman, Conkling, Edmunds, and Chan- diler follow in the order named. ‘The Dem- ocrats in 98 of the 157 districts prefer Til- den, 23 Thurman, 11 Bayard. Hendricks and Hancock bring up the rear.

TrE nature of the soil in Manitoba is such as to make good roads an impossibility during certain pertions of the year. The Free Press says, ** The first waves of a large immigration are already breaking upon Manitoba's shores and flowing off in a dozen different channels. The great major- |ity of the new comers will travel west in search of future homes, and one and all will raise their voice in accents of horror at our roads. Toa large majority of our Provincial readers the whole state of our transit facilities into the interior is a mat- ter very indifferently understood. They

+|know merely that at certain times of the

year the roads are bad, that the increased traffic tells heavily on them, and that in certain districts heavy loads cannot go over.”

Tho Death-rate of

Our country is getting to be fearfully al- arming, the average of life being lessened every year, without any reasonable cause, death resulting generally from the most in- signiticant origin. At this season of the year, especially, a cold is such a common thing that in ~he hurry of every day life we are apt fo overlook the dangers attending it and often find, too: late, that a Fever or Lung trouble has already set in. Thon- 'sands lose their lives in this way every win- ter, while had Bosshee’s German Syrup been taken, a cure would have resulted, and a large bill from a doctor been avoided. For all diseases of the Phxoat and Lungs, Bos-
