BT MAKIA LOWBIX,
Slip a*t where the level eandi
Sent baok the tky’a fierce glare j
She folded her mighty hands,
-And waited with oaim despair,
While the red sun dropped down the streaming air,
Her throne wee broad and low,
:■ BulUled of cinnamon;
Huge ivorjr, row on row,
Varying its columns dun,
' Barred with the copper of the setting sun.
Up from the river came •
The low and sullen roar
<©f lions, with eyes, of flame,
That haunted Its reedy shore,
And the neigh of the hippopotamus,
Trampling the watery floor. •'
Jler great dusk face no light
From the aunset glow could take;
Dark as the primal night
Ere over the earth God spake;
It seemed for her a dawn could neyer break.
She opened her massy lips,
And sighed with a dreary sound,,
Ha when, by the sands’ eclipse,
Bewildered men are bound,
And, like a train of mourners .
The columned winds sweep round.
She said! “My torch at fount of day
I lit, now smouldering in decay ;
Through futures I grope my way.
■II was sole Cfcueen the broad earth through;
' my ohildren round my knees upgrew, _
And from my breast sucked Wisdom’s dew.
“Day after day to them I hymned ; ...
Fresh knowledge still my song o’erbrimmed,
; Eresh knowledge which no time had dimmed.
«i I sang of Numbers; soon.they';*?*?.--
The spell they wrought, and as the blue
Foretold the stars in order due;
«Of Music; and they fain would rear
something to tell its influence clear;
Uprose my Memnon, with nice ear.
«»To wait upon the morning air,
Until the sun rose from his lair
Swifter at greet of lutings rare.
«I sang of Forces whose great bands
Could knit together feeble hands
To uprear Thought’s supreme commands;
■• Then, like broad tents, beside the Nile,
They pitched the Pyramid's great pile,
.Where light and shade divided smile ;
»»And on white, walls, In stately show,
‘ Bid Painting with fair moyement go,
Leading the long procession slow.
ii All laws that wondrous nature taught,
To eerve my children’s skill I brought,
And atilt for fresh devices sought.
<i What need totelll they lapsed away, _
' Their great light quenched in twilight gray,
Within their winding tombs they lay,
i> And centuries went slowly by,
And looked into my sleepless eye,
Whioh only turned to see them die.
liTbe winds like mighty spirits oame,
' Alive and pure and strong as flame,
At last to lift me from my shame;
«For oft I heard them onward go,
Felt in the air their great wings row.
As down they dipped in journeying slow.
•' Their course they steered above my head,
One strong voice to another said, _
t why sits she here so drear and dead !
*n Her kingdom stretches far away;
Beyond the utmostverge of day
Her myriad children danoe and play.'
«' Then throbbed my mother’s heart again,
' Then knew my pulses finer pain,
■ Which wrought like fire within my brain.
“ I eought my .young barbarians, where
A mellower light broods on the air,
And heavier blooms swing incense rare*
it Swart skinned, crisp-haired, they did not shun
' The burning arrows ot the sun; '
Ereot as palms stood every one.
••I said—These shalllive out their day,
' In song and dance and endless play;
The-chlldren of the world are they.
si ifor peed they delve with heavy spade j
Their bread on emerald dishes laid,
* Sets forth a banquet in each shade.
ii only the thoughtful bees shall store
’ Their honey for them evermore;
They shall not learn such toilsome lore;
ii Their finest skill shall be to snare
The birds that flaunt along the air,
And deck them In their feathers rare.
“So centuries went on their way,
And brought fresh generations gay
On mvsavannahs green to play.
si There came a change. They took my free,
Tdv careless ones* and the great sea
Slew back their endless sighs to me.
- .tv'With earthquake shuddering* oft the mouls
' Would gape; I saw keen spear* of gold
Thrusting red hearts down, not yet cold,
“But throbbing wildly; dreadful groans
‘ Stole upward through Earth’s ribbed stones.
And crept along through all my zones.
n sought again my desert bare,;
And still they followed on the air,
And still I hear them everywhere.;
•‘So sit I dreary, desolate,
Till the slow moving hand of Fate
Shall lift me from my .sunken state,”
Her great Ups dosed upon her moan; -
Silently *ate she upon her throne,
Rigid and black, as carved In stone.— lndependent,
CIOTHING.

to maintain the high position she has heretofore and
still occupies among her sister States in contributing to
