THE CLOSING SCENE.
BY THOMAS lll'CUASAR BEAU.
The followinif Is pronounced by the West
minister rtvitie to be the Duett Auierlcau pueui
ever w ritten : J
Within the sibcr realm of leafless tree,
Tho rutsut year inhaled the dreamy Mr,
Like Mime tanned rener in his hour id ease,
When all th Ueld are lying brown aud bare.
The cray barns, looking from their hstzy bills,
O er the dun waters widciiini; iu the vul,
Sent down the air reeliii); to the mills,
Ou the dull thunder of alternate flails,
All sight were mellowed and all sounds ub;)tied,
The hills seemed further aud streams suiik low,
A. iu a dieaiil the dis.ant woodman hewed
Hi water hij( with many a luuL'led blow.
The nmb.itt!ed fiuc.t. ere w hile armed with gold,
Their banner blight with every uuirtlal hue,
Now stood like miiiii sad, beaten bust of old,
Wilhdiawii ufar iu Time' ruinutest blue.
Oh sombre w iliK the vulture tried hit Uigat,
The dove scarce heaid his sijliiu luutu s coro
pUint; A;i4, like a slur sluw drnanini; In lha lik;bt.
The Tiling church vuoe seemed to pale and
faint.
The sentinel cock upon the hillside crew
Crw twice h nd all was .tiller than ksfor ;
Silent, till miine replying warden blew
His alien horn, and then was heard no nor.
Wbeie ent the jay, within the elm's tall crast,
Made carruluus trouble roaud bar uns)eded
yountr,
An I where the oriole wuug her wa)lnr; tiat,
By every light wind like a senior swung ;
Where sum; the noisy martens of the aavoi,
The buy swallowi. circling ever near
Foi boding, as the rustic mind believes,
Au ear'y harvest and a pleuteous year,
Where every bird that waked the vacua! Crast,
bhuiik tin. sweet slumber fisiu its wiuga at
morn,
To worn the reaper of the rosy east
All now wns aiiulrs, empty aud forlorn.
A!on from out the rtuhble piped the qaall.
And croaked the ciow thro' all the dreary
pioom ;
Alone the phraont, dramming In the vale,
M.tde echo iu tne dift.ii.ee to Hie cottage loom.
There was no bud, no blo-nn apon the bowtrs,
The spiders moved their thin shrouds night by
niL-t.r ;
11. c Ihistli: down, the only ghoM of flowers.
Sailed slowlj by psed noiseless ont of sight.

'Ent a little bit, dear, she begged. 'It
will ni'iku you feel better.'
1 don't think I shall ever be better,'
answered Tom.
The tears rolled down the (.islet's fare.
'l)ou'l talk so, Tom," sho sobU-d.
'Vou
shan't eo. 1 tan't live without you. Who
will there be to care for me 5"
'I've been thinking,' said Tom, pravely,
'I think a p'out deal lyinr hero, thiil when
I nm none, liither will be difterrtit. Yon
know,' nnd here he drooped hio voic, tiuil
lookid cniTfnlly nrountl, ns if to see lest
any one should be listening, 'you know that
liither drinks ; nnd that's why he comes
home co lule, and says he can't u third to
send you lo school ; and why he is so cross;
and why. sometimes, he beats you '
Don't speak of it, dear,' said his sister.
'I wouldn't mind it if it wasn't for you.'
'Rut I do mind it, Lizzy ; and it breaks
my heart to lie here and see it. Rut some
times I think, when I die, father will be
ilillcrcut ; ho says he loves me. nnd it may
make him good, you sec. What is it the
Rible says Y 'Through much tribulation,'
Yes ! it is through 'much tribulation, we
wiu the crown. Vhnt was the verso we
learnt at school ? 1 keep forgetting. The
one nbottt being tired.'
'Oh ! I know, said Lizzy. 'Come unio
me nil ye that arc weary and heavy laden,
aud I will cjvc you rest.'
'Cnie unto rue,' repeated the brother.
He does not deceive, Lizzy. He will give
us lvfcl. He loves me nud you, too, aud he
will take care of us. He is going to give
me rest up iu heaven.'
Rut the sister was not to be comforted.
Tom was nil the world Ho her. To le
him was to lose everything.
The day wore on. Night crime. Tom
lay, looking at the lily, nml no one know
how many sweet thoughts il stigucsud to
hint. Now and then his sister stopped iu
her work, nnd came to see if he wanted
anything. He always thanked her with a
sweet smile.
'Fnther is late to night,' he said nt Inst,
when the darkness came ; aud he sighed.
'He will be here soon,' said Lizzy, utter
ing words of hope, in which she hardly
believed herself. 'Try to sleep a little,
dear.'
So Tom, nt last fell off into a doze. Ten
o'clock came nnd yet no lather. Worn out
with fatigue and anxiety, Lizzy crept into
bed by her brother's side, nnd sauk to sleep
also.
It was nearly midnight when the father
eatneiti. The noise woke Tom up. He
half raised on his elbow and looked around.
At that moment, the moon emerged from a
cloud, nnd its light, falling through the
window, lit up the sick boy's tnce with a
giory us of a seraph's.
The father started back, sobered at once.
It seemed to him ns if a linlo, direct from
heaven, encircled his child's head.
Father,' said Tom. 'come here please.'
The man went sollly to his son's bed
side, sank ou his knees, nnd took the lad's
hand tenderly in his own. He was awed.
'1W kind to Lizzy,' said Tom, wistfully,
looking into his lather's face. 'She won't
Lave anyone but you, when I am dead,
father. "Let her go to scfioul again, please,
she is so fond of school '
'Oh 1 my son. my son,' interrupted the
now penitent father, bursting into sobs.
You will get well yet '
'I will never get well,' said Tom 'Hut
don't cry, father. ? shall see mother, you
know. Am! by-nnd-by.' nnd n strange
look came on his lace, a look of joy and
faith inexpressible, .'hy-aml-by, we'll all
meet again, shan't we V. Kiss mc, plense,
and then no to bed, or we'll Wake sister.'
The father, choking back his sobs, kissed
the hoy. 'I promise to be kind to Lizzy,'
he whi.scred. '."she shall gJ to school. 1
will never drink another itroi. As.God is
my witness,' he added, solemnly, '1 uever
will.'
.Torn took his little, thin nrms from
arouud his father's neck, where he had put
them for that last kiss, and then sunk back
on his pillow, exhausted.
'How sweet the (lower looks iu the moon
light,' thought Tom. 'What n hnppv boy
I am to have it 1 Aud to have lather
promise to be lvltor,'. lie went on, 'and to
say he'll love Lizzv, and that he'll r-end her
to school ' Aud then he forgot himself
iu sleep.
The night passed. Morning dawned, j
Lizzy woko ottore tne suu rivc. tier nrst

'I've slept all niiiht,' she said, renroneh-

The lily had doue il work. It had
