I met a little girl one" morning, not long
since, she looked up and said sweetly, "Miss
II., Ma wishes yon to please to write some ver
ses for our dear little baby, his name was Har
ry Dorsey, and he died." llow could 1 deny
the request of the gentle child ? "Our dear
-Wh
li
little baby, and he died." O, who is there so
unfeeling that the warm tears will not start 1
And yet who is there but will think, another
rem "set in the Savior's crown," another
bright star in the presence of God ! .
- I knew not that young child, '
1 Nor even her whose part it was
" -To watch with anguish wild,
To see the lire-tide ebb and flow,
To hear the breath come feint and low,
To see the death-waves come and go,
- On that brow young and mild ;
And see the soft Hps pale, '
f And the dimming of the eye, .
The sinking lorm so frail,
And the last trembling sigh.
I only know that he is clay ;
The spirit pure has fled away.
To live with God in endless day,
And never die.

My baby is gone, Where? To Heaven.
- Angel came and took him away.
A light is from onr household gone,
A voice we lov'd is still'd,
.A place is vacantin our hearts,
' That never can be fill'd ;
: A gentle heart that throbbed but now,
With tenderness and love,
- Has hnsh'd its weary throbbing here,
To throb in bliss above.
-
Yes, to the home where Angels are,
His trusting sonl has fled,
And yet we bend above the tomb,
With tears, and call him dead ;
We call bim dead but, oh ! weknow
lie dwells where living water flow.
