Wake the better soul, that slumbered. ,
To a holy, calm delight.
Ere the evening lamps are lighted,
And. like phantoms grim and tall,

Enter at the open door ;
The beloved, the true-hearted,
Come to visit meant* more.
He. the young end strong, who cherished
Noble longings for the strife,
By the roadside till end perished,
Weary with the match of life.
They; the holy ones anti weakly,
Who the crow of ruffering bore,
Folded their pale hands so meekly.
Spoke with ue on earth no more.
And with them this being beauteous,
Who unto my youth was given,
More then all things else, to love me.
And is now a saint in heaven.
With a slow and noiseless footstep
Comes that messenger
Takes the vacant chair beside me,
Lays her gentle hand in mine.
And she sits amt gases at me
With those deep and tender eyes,
Like the stare so still and saint-like,
Looking doWnward from the skies.
Uttered not, yet comprehended.
Is the spirit's voiceless prayer,
Soft rebukes, in blessings ended,
antething from her Spoof air.

All my fears are laid aside,
If I but remember only
Such a. these have lived end died.

A - little child stood at the window. It
: wpa a balmy spring morning ; a light
. .ireeze was blowing from the West, and a
i ti
t swayed the blossoming boughs of the
old garden trots loaded with the fragrant
promise of •a fruitful year, the - white, trem
bling blossoms quivered and dropped, not
one by one, but in great tremulous showers,
flecking the blue air like fleecy clouds a
gainst a heaved of azure. A beautiful
sight it was—thut sweet, quivering, fro_
grant deluge of floating white blossoms !
But the child laid her fair head on the
low Window ilI and wept. Not long,
how
ever. A soft hand laid gently over those
drooping curls, aroused the weeper.
•'Dear mamma, tee the blossoms, the
beautiful white blossoms ! Why do the
winds steal them fr.,11 their oweei homes,
and toss then so cruelly to the earth, where
they will wither and shrivel and die F . —
The aping time will lose half its fairness,
with my beautiful blossoms gone."
The mother said nothing—but, with
her caressing fingers, whose touch the
child had felt so often on her forehead, she

and tromulomt as the sweet May•blonms
themselves, folded quietly over her flushed l
cheeks ; and she slept.
Again the child stood at the window,
' but it was early Autumn. The lazy air,l
stiltfet vid almost to tropic warmth, suunt- 1

with a hot, dry breath. But the sunshine
lay goldenly all around, lighting up the

quite shut out its brightness, and touching
die soft cheeks of the blushing nectarines
and juicy pears with a richer hue es they
swung heavily to and fro in the indolent
air.
"Ah, I am so weary." murmured the
child, "but how beautiful it is I"
"What is beautiful, darling ?"
" W hy, mamma, this lovely, lovely fruit
See what a bright tinge the . sunlight has
given those ripe, golden peaches, and how
the crimson melts in and out on their cheeks
as they stir in the breeze. Oh, it is so

leaves. I never saw any thing so lovely
Ily before. Mamma, why doyen smile ?"
"Come with we and plunk some of this

"Edith," said her mother, as they seat
ed themselves on the sheltered garden Best
that Edith called her arbor, "do ,you re- '
member when you wept' to see the white
blossoms falling fiom the trees ?"
"Yes, mamma," said the child, looking
in wondering earnestness at the question.
"So, darling, . you see that God, our
kind Father, knows the beat. Will my
daughter always try to remember this ?
—for, Edith, there comes many a season
beside the spring -time, when blossoms fkll:"
"Edith looked up again--a dreamy,
thoughtful, wondering look

"Oh, Mamma, it was my all," sobbed E
dith, laying her head with the old aband
onment of childhood on her mother's heart,
"my mother's treasure, the sweetest and
loveliest to me of all God's gif ts, and He
has fallen it away. Why should Be have
asked this Y. Why did he grant this sweet
boon only to take it back again t" And
the slight, proud frame shook in the arm
that clasped it, as wi th an army too mighty -
to txs borne.
With a dumb prayer for strength, the
mother lifted that pale brow till her Bps
touched it and then answered quietly, "E
-dith, darling, listen to me. When you
stood, years ago, a little child, at this very
window, weeping to behold the white blos

not because you

day, the place would be filled with ripe,

rejoicing in a sweet harvest that in your
!childish ignoranee you never dreamed;
could follow such a waste of loveliness and
bloom. So, darling, you stand now, weep
ing over the blossoms of hope uud gladness
falling so thick around you. But now.'
re then, believe me, my sweet child, there
will come a day when you will see, as
you saw then, that it was fitting that nll
this bettory and fragrance should vanish
so that the bright, golden harvest may
sueceed. God has shaken your inmost
spirit with the strong winds of his power,
but only to detach the warm leaves of its
• fir, : The EUTlllits siiirthere;
and from it may result a harvest of rich-1
ness which shall become to you at length
the very fruition of joy. The blossoms )
float downwards, seeking the earth; our;
little one has ascended to the sweet hea
vens. There she will expand iu a lovelier
air than this floating around us now. She
will hunger no more, neither thirst any
more ; neither shall the sun-light be upon
her nor any heat; for the lamb which is
in the midst of the throne shall feed her
and shall lead her unto living fountains of
water ; and God shall wipe away all tears
from her eyes."
"It is enough," murmured the ntourner,
raising her own eyes, now filled with sweet,
hopeful tears. Ah, from that moment, in
her trusting soul had there not commenc
ed the harvest of her sorrow f—a harvest
more sure and beautiful than the fruitage
of an earthly soil—richer and sweeter and
more enduring than all the ripeness fold -
ed in the blossomings of a thousand springs,
whose Reaper is the chastencdSontittelf,
and the Ilarveat-tirue, Eternity!
