BY MRS. S "W. JEWETT.
' Go forth," said the heavenly Father,
To one of his seraph train ;
Go forth on an errand of merer. - ; .
To the world of trouble and pain. - i
Loosen the galling fetters.
That bind the weary and worn ; -
lAnd bear to. their glorious mansions,-
The souls that for bliss are born.
'And away from earth's noxious vapors, ,j
Some buds of beauty bring. .
ITo bloom in the heavenly gardens,- - - 4
'N'eath the smile-bf perpetual i?prrng.-T
lAnd the angel with wing resplendent,
Went out from the heavenly band,
k!idst a chorus of joyful voices,
Resounding at God's right hand.-
In the street of-crowded city,
An old man beggar'd and poor,-
Hungry and sick and sorrowing,
Sank down by a rich man's door.
Sleep weighed down his heavy eyelids,
And feeble he drew his breath",
As beside him, with look of compassion','
Alighted the Angel of Death'.
Then he thought of the years long vanished,
The lovely, the lost, and the dear, i .
Till borne on the wings of s.weet visions,
He wote in a happier spheres.
There were none on the earth to sorrow
That the old man's days were o'er, ?
But myriads bade him welcome, ..
As he neared the heavenly shore. ;v
Slowly night's .gathering shadows', ,
Closed round a mother mild,
Who, tearful and heavy harted, -V
Watched by her dying childi - h
Fevered, and restless, and moaning, ,
On his little bed he lay,
When the bright-winged angel drew neat h:m,
And kiss'd his last breath away.
So softly the chain was severed
So gently was stayed the breath
It smoothed the heart of the mourner.
And she blessed the Afigel of Death.
if
For she knew that the soul of her 'darling
Had gone to his Father above
Ctesped in the arms more tender
Than even her fondest love:
And still in his Jioly mission, . r t-

Gathering God's wandering children
To their eternal home. '

The foirowing accolinvof an expedition to! the
SJtiow Mountain, in MexiW,. prepared by an
officer of the Fpuph .A.riillery,, who made one
of the party, was originally 'published .iriThe
Outpost Gardv a small American paper at

t Hayig jb.reakfasted, and the day being fair,
not.a clou.d obsciijjng the horizon,' our. pans,
k.ule?, meats,, arid, eatables pf allf.kinjds were
atowedawa'y, in pur,wagons, tbgether wiih.the
knap5aqkB(aud, blankets of some fifty men, who
liad vounee;ed from,, the Fourth Artillery ,to
accompany up, and at about eight o'clock on
the tiiorn.ing .o.f the thirtcenih .day of March
woaia'Ttpd.j.upon our expedition to the Snow
Mountain at Toluca. .n about two hours
we reached the hacienda ofj Guatlaloupe, pas
sing tHjiitle Hill of Tlacotepec on our left.
Procuring, guides here wo continued on, and,
with our Wagons, entered some three miles into
ihe pine forest that encirce.s t)ie mhuniatn, and
there bivouacked for the night.. Som.iwo or
three tent.ajbfought in the wagons, weie pitched,
houses 'of jjine tree, botighjs were built, and in
a short tithe tliR place had the appea ranee, of a
mall village. Huge firessprung Aip all around
an if by magic, alid sortti every one was em
ployed in cooking, making bowerni, bringing
warr from a small stream near by, ..or hunting
dry wood for the fires. All was busile; 'life
and hilarity. , - . .
The mm soon set, and ihef jnd npcpnj
meured blowing, bringing up Huge ni asses- jf
cloud, that, as the night set in rainy and star
less, seemed to fill every one with desponding
and anxiety for the weather on the morrqw.
The cold was severe, and we coHlijriuejd on sil
ling around our fires, making merry. wiih choc
olate and hot punches until a late hour, when
one by one, tho party stolo off, to sleep aj
comfortably as the number of blankets each
titan had brought would permit him.
The next morning before sunrise every one
had prepared bis own breakfast. I myself then
thought that nothing could have tasted sweeter
than did a cupof chacolate of mv own make,
and the leg of a chicken. Breakfast over, ou.r
horses were saddled and, the guides leading,
. , , , e " J,-t . , i
narrow oath throueh the forest which seemed t
in ma interminable.
As we had fearerj, the morning was cloudy,
and the mist so dense that we could scarcely
see the guide before us. The trees became
Mnallrr and more slunted as we proceeded, and
finally disaYpeafed aliogeiher. We then emer- j
ged into a sort of wild, ascending prairie, cov
pre'd wiih a long rank growth of grass' having
the appearance, from .Tol.uca, of banks cf sand.
Continuing on over this prairie for some three
miles we arrived at the foot of a steep hill.-
On teaching the top of th! live found that' we
were now only separated from the highest
pfak by a deep' intervening valley. , Passing
through this and up a flight elevation on the
other side, we at length stood at the base of
th towering" snow-topped summits far above
us. , .
fjur prty now scattered,, aojne .leaving their
hores httre, commenced the ascent of the hill,
at nhnae base wu then stood, while others con
tinued oh' towards the peaks beyond the lakes.
.My horse being completely exhausted, 1 lelt
hun and commenced the first ascent at. hand.
After climbing a short distance 1 stopped and
Mazed with' tfd'ncfer upon the scene, before me.
ify fofiher ascent was lo be over a pertect
mass of piled up rock, rent into prismatic
block's and through whoso crevices ihe eye
would occasionally penteraTe into many a dark
j-ecess. tVt
'f he ascetri was so"" difficult and tiresome,
from tfie ranfied state of the air, that but few
upward steps could be taken at a iTnie, and
then ihe heart would ihrbb with vible'rice.'and
the air fri' the lungs seerM exhausted. The
head wduld swin, and not until one had in
haled a copious draught of air could: he continue
on. After climbing' up for more ihen an hour,
completely exhausted, I seated myself upon a
projecting rbek and gazed around in bilier dia
appblntnleutdense mist and clouds hid erery
thing from my view. But while sitting here
the godn seemed to talie compassion on me ;'
and,, in reward for my perseverance, wnh one
.blast swept iho itsi)and clouds from before me,
revealing to m lorlgiilg eyes, in the .far east,
the no w topped-summits of Popocatapet aiid
Izfaciltuatl. 4 . . '
Belowme lay the fertile valley of Toluca,
whicb, ihougb' bounded on the east by a loljy
ridge, npw seemed io'ejsblirby.he rrter'esi
hills. Over iftei tdpa could be aeen ihe far-
asaed yalby of Anuhuoc, . and. atill . further on
to my right rose that mariner's guide, higli aloll
amid the clouds; the snow ibpped peak of
Orizba. 'fhts seen was disclosed-but for a
moment, and again the envious mist ensbrou
ded'jill in pb.scurjiy. . t
Continuing ths ascent, j at last stood on the.
hjghest. pinuacle of this range, aim; there now
only jetnained above me on the, opposite, aide.

in ours, to give themselves even that exhiliarating
kind of ablution which is derived from bathing;.
At the present season, the traveller on the Conti

remember them swimming down the Lorie to Nan

end of the week they feel a prickly and'uncom

eagearly into the hot steam, and boiling out the
impurities of the' preceding six days, begin life
again with new vigor. In Summer they do not
wait fof days and times) but1 merely get up an hour
earlier and dash into the nearest pond or river.-
Jn our refined country,, dirt causes no uheasiness.

the pores and contaminate the,' whole being, moral
and physical! Jt bluntjs thesenVes. to such a de'

classes you find ,th;e .water 4taraff most in demand;
at those of the lower-classes the beer jug. , The
quality of the beer is of no consequence. We
never. knew it so freely drank in our owri peigh
borbobd as at a time (some 2$, years ago) when

The connection between the worst symptoms of
the two kinds pf hydrophobia we have described
needs little illustration. The dirtier an individual
is in, hfg person, family, house, neighborhood, the
more, pestilent are he expedients he falls upon
for disguising the taste of the abhorred water.
In other words, the progress of he disease is nat.;.
