In Memoriam. Seated where the camp-fire’s flickering Faded ‘mid surrounding night, Friends of boyhood, we were talking, Of the shadows and the light,

Shadows lying on each pathway, Trembling with each trembling leaf; Fa}. ter smiles of fading friendship, per, nearer, shades of grief,

And we looked from out the doorway, While our thought-flight circled far,

Up abvve ‘1c mist-wreathed hill-tops, Lhrou. i the cloud-veil, to a star.

Then {he spoke of the loved home land Where youth-cherished hopes had life, Karly born and early blighted In the cold world’s surge and strife.

Vanished hopes. His sun was setting Burning, withering rage of noon

Made him weary; and he waited Twilight's softer gathering soon.

But the morn, when exile’s night time Fades before returning sun,

He had, in his longing, pictured Home-rest,were his toilings done

Ah ! the mystic tie of friendship ! One through all these dreary years We had rested (He was noble) ; Smiled life’s sunlight, wept life’s tears.

But the clond-rent closed above me, And the star I could not see ;

And there fell a weight upon me Which has never ceased to be.

In that vale, may sweetest songster Trill his love-lay o'er a grave,

Where the brooklet murmurs gently, And the birchen branches wave,

Cherished, as the life within us, Is the spot where tears were shed; Hallowed by its deeper sorrow, Sacred to the hope that’s fled. May 17th 1889, ANON.

Rest.

Rest? It issimply trust in Him who knoweth best;

Leaving to-morrow in His hands, and all the rest

Of time without a shudder, or a dread

Of danger on ahead.

It is the poising of a soul on Him

Who from the dim

Far past hath been the Infinite, the stable one,

Praying His will be done;

Leaning on Him, in trust which knows no tear,

As a child leans who does not hear

The breath of the far storm; to be

At peace in His infinity.

Bishop’s Death. SERIOUS ACCUSATIONS OF THE MIND READ- ER'S WIFE AND MOTHER. The wife and mother of Washington Ir- ving Bishop, the mind reader, claim that Bishop was notfdead, but merely in a trance when the physicians made their post mor- tem examination, and that his death was caused by surgical instruments. It seems that but four hours clapsed from the time of his reported death until Drs. Irwin, ‘erguson aud House were making a post mortem examination of the body. The widow of the mind reader states that he had suffered several times from cataleptic attacks, and that he had lain in a trance ap- parently dead for periods varying from 6 to 52 hours. On one occasion in March she says the physicians pronounced him dead, and preparations were advised for his in- terment, but ina little over two days he recovered. About two years ago Bishop, while suffering with dangerous illness, was treated by Dr. Robertson in New York, While at the doctor’s house he had .a cata- leptic attack and remained in a trance-like condition for two days. The physicians who performed the autopsy, however, say there can be no possible doubt of Bishop's death before the autopsy was decided upon. _ nr CT oem a NR The Ocean Racers.

BY WHAT MEANS THE TIME ACROSS THE ATLANTIC HAS BEEN REDUCED.

The time occupied in crossing the Atlan- tic has been reduced to less than six days— 53 minutes less. Thisis due to the great improvements made of late years in marine engines. The-e have been vreat reductions in the rate of coal consumption per horse power and in the weight of boilers and machinery per horse power. This has been done by increasing steam pressure and

;The Umbria’s compound engines are sup- ‘plied with steam ata pressure of 100 pound |by gauge. Piston speed has also been in- creased since 1872 from 375 to 700 feet per second, and in some cases much more. These vast improvements, with the addition of forced draught, represent a large gain of itherme dynamic efliciency in marine engines, and the consequent possibility of ivery high and economical speed on the jocean. ‘The improvements in the hull pro- | portions of modern steamers have also lad jmuch todo with the attainment of the jhigh speed that has lately become so not- able.
