RING THE BELL SOFTLY !
Some ono has gone from this strange world of ours,
No more to gather its thorns with its flowers;
No more to linger where sunbeams must fade,
Where, on all beauty, death's fingers are laid;
Weary with mirigling death's bitter and sweet,
Weary with patting and never to meet;
Some one has gone to the bright golden shore—
Ring the bell softly, there's crape on the door!
Ring the liellsofil - TilierViTirope on the door.
Some one is resting from sorrow- and sin,
Happy where death's conflicts enter not in,
Joyous as birds, when the morning is bright
.When the sunbeams have brought us their light
Weary with sowing and never to reap,
Weary with labor and welcoming sleep—
Some one's departed to lteaven's bright shore !
Ring the bell softly, there's cr ape en the door
Ring the beill,oftly, there's crape on the door
Angels were anxiously longing to meet
One who walks with thorn in !leaven's bright street ;
Loved ones have whispered that some one is blew;
Free from earth's Li it:ls and taking sweet rest;
Yes !there is me more in an Belie bii 3i —
One;less to cherish and one less to kiss;
One more departed to !leaven's bright shore.

Henceforth
Oh, that solemn henceforth ; solemn to
each of us as we part to-day, thinking of no
more than the chances and changes of this
uncertain life; infinitely more solemn as we
each look forward to the hour which will
certainly come to each, when the past will be
done with, our whole life here gone by for
ever, and only eternity before us. Hence
forth glory or henceforth woe ! We shalt
never properly understand, until we come to
die, how thoroughly, then, the past is gone,
and our only portion is in the future. You
may feel it in some measure looking on the
face of one departed; thinking how utterly
the many cares that drew those lines upon
it are past and gone—looking at the gray
hair and thinking that now your friend is no
longer old. What a sharp, complete end of
all the interests'of this world has come ! how
free the heart is from all the little troubles
and vexations that fevered it but a short
time since ! Yes, gone where these things
are not ! Entered upon the great henceforth;
the life beyond the grave I The day will come
to us when we can have nothing bit what
we can have there, when all things we toil
for and value here will avail us nothing:
when the places and the people wo know,
the books we used to read, the church where
it was pleasant to worship, the room in which
we sat, will all be things long since passed
away; thingS that ceased to be for us years
and years ago,•and nothing about us, and be
fore, but the great eternity; henceforth only
that, and what we can have• there! And;
blessed ho God, there is that we can gain
here, and take with ns there ! No wonder
that Saint Paul declared that he counted all
things but lost, that he 'night win Christ.—
For the good part in our Saviour is not
merely the best possession now; in a little
while it will be the only one—the only pos-
session that will not pass from our falling
hands when we die; the only possession we
oan take with u.s into the other world.
INTwyrartv.tri's PREACIIING.—As White•
field was once preaching te a vast multitude
on the banks of one of the noble rivers of
Virginia, he spoke of the strength of human
depravity, and the ineafftaiencyr of the means
of green to convert the sinner without the
ineuenees of the Holy Spirit 'Sinners,'
said be, /think not that I expect to convert
a si ng le snot of you by'anything that I can
say, without the assistance of Him that is
mighty to save. Go and. stand by that ricer
as it moves on its etrong"and deep current to
the ocean, and bid it stop, and see if it will
obey you. Just as soon should I expect to
stop that river by a word, as by my preach
ing to stop that current of sin that is carry
ing you to perdition. Father in heaven! see
they are hurried on towards hell; save them
or they perish l' The impression which
this address produced upon his hearers :was
so strong thret they were ready to respond
with trembling, 'Sara Lord, or fro perish.'

MONTANA TOMBS
A most wonderful story, says the Lentos
worth- Comiiiei-ciat, November 2, reaches us
from Montana; lucked; a 'tale which we
shOuld hardly credit, wore it not related to
us by one whom we cousider worthy of cre
dence. The gentleman who related -the cir
cumstance to us, came down by the steamer
yesterday, and had himself conversed with
Mr Ed ward Parsons, one of the lucky ad
venturers, who gave him the following par
ticulars. In July last,a company of five pros
p at r, was made up in Helena, who having
heard of the unexplored country around the
head of the'Yellowstone, determined to visit
that district in search of lodes. The country
was found to be almost entirely free froth
Indians, and there was abundance of game,
until-they-arrived - witifin - m - rdiyitjelirney
of Yellowstone Lake, when the scene Entire
ly* ehauged;the country being entirely bar
ren, and permeated in every direction with
hot springs, and fissures in the rocks from
which Rsued smoke and noxious gases.
Continuing their journey through a scerch
ing atmosphere, and encountering some peril
among the rough and irregular ridges of bare
rock, which everywhere distinguished the
landscape, the travelers, on the third day,
came to the margin of a small lake, from
which issued a river, which they judged
would lead to the Yellowstone. After fol
lowing the stream for some time, they came
to a long, irregular mound, crowned on the
summit by an ancient stone "Caro," similar
to those seen in some parts of New 11.1exieo,
which was half — concealed in grass and a
erowth of low hushes. As the work of
removing the stones dill not appear to be a
difficult one, they being uneemeoted and of
medium size, it was proposed to open the
"Caro," which was done, after half a day's
labor, and below was found a solid cemented
floor,which sounded hollow to the tread, -
Dein • however determined to - mitu em_th_eir_
work, the travelers, after some labor, dug
down some twelve inches, when they came
to an immense stone, seven feet long, which
it took the united strength of the party to
remove. Beneath, there was a long, low
chamber, and when the eyes of the intruders
became, accustomed to the darkness, it was
seen that an Indian cat.comb had been un
earthed. Seated in a single row around the
quadrangle, were the remains of upward of
thirty warriors, from whose forms the flesh
had long since mouldered away, and whose
very bones crumbled into dust at the touch of
th.e spectator Ou the floor around lay nu
merous instruments or war or chase, some of
iron. some of stone, and the entire apart
ment was CoVertil with it flue and iihatiat, im
palpable dust,.which was all that remained of
the firs and robes with which this abode of
death had, doubtless, at one time, been deco
rated.
Lying beside the bones were numerous or
naments, indicating the rank of the dead, and
among then were many of those twisted eir
cleis of gold -known to antiquarians as
torques,'' which had at one time entwined
the necks and the tams of their savage own
era. Some of these were of unusual size,
weighing one and a half to two pounds, and
many other ornaments of the same precious
metal were also secured by the happy finders.
11 'hat chiefly attracted attention was, how
ever, a massive basin or kettle that occu
pied the centre of the apartment, and was
doubtless used as .a sacrificial censer for
burning incense, it being two fret high and
two a halt in eircumfercnco. The massive
article, wonderful to tell, proved, on inspec
tion, to be pure gold, and was so heavy that
the party had great difficulty iu removing it
from its resting place and 'bringing it into
the loner air.
Endeavors were tben made to break - the
vessel, but the pure' quality of the gold
caused it only to bend beneath the weight of
the blows inflicted upon it. After great ex
ertion the adventurers were enabled, by
means of their axes, to sever the mass into
portable pieces, /adon_with_which_the—psaty
turned their steps homewards, having them
selves to walk the greater part of the way to
give relief to their buidened animals, The
whole amount of gold was brought to Helena,
and Mr. Edward Parsons calculated that 1118
skate of the treasure amounted to about
S:21,000, the whole amount being at Icsat
$lOO,OOO in value.
flow Mit. LINCOLN IS LIONOItED.— One
of the evidences of the high honor and pro
found reverence with which the memory of
Mr Lincoln is hell] by the people of France,
to Shown by an inoideut which occurred to
an American gentleman, who was paying a
visit to Gustave Pore Upon ushering this
gentleman into his studio, Pore pointed to
Marshall's portrait of Mr. Lincoln. It was
fixed upon the centre of the wait, in the
place of honor, and surrounded by fine works
of art, the productions of Dore and otlter
men of genius. "There,' said the artist, "I
have placed this exquisitely engraved por
trait of the greatest man in the country,
where every one who enters here can see it
and do him honor." Another gentleman,
while visiting tio silk - factories at Lyons,
was taken into a•room by the director, who
showed him this same portrait, beautifully
reproduced in silk, telling his guest "this is
the fourth instance whore we hare under
taken the difficult task of weaving a portrait
in this costly fabric. The first was Wash
ington, the second the Emperor Napoleon,
the third Alexander, the Emperor of Russia,
and the last,your great Lincoln.
'The science of love,' wrote Cicero, 'is the
philosophy ot• the heart.' So, moreover, the
method of falling in lure ; truly, wisely, prop
erly and with discretion, is the science of
life. What a paradise this world would
have been if it had never witnessed an
sorted union or an unhappy marriage. The
question needs no further argument. This
falling properly in love is tho firs► question
in life.
Praying and Doing.
thi, poor little children who havtet,
'arty beds to-night; pray - ed a little boy, just
before he lay down in his nice warm cot of a
cold winter night.
As he rose from is knees, his mother said
to him, 'You have ju asked God - to bless
the poor children; what will you do to bless
them l'_
The boy thought a moment. '
•Why, if I had a hundred cakes, enough
for ourselves, I'd give them some.'
'But you have no cakes.'
'Well, when I get money enough to buy
all the things that I want, and have some o
ver, I'll give them some.'
'But yeti havn't half enough money to buy
all you want, and perhaps never will have.
I — want to know what you will dc) to bless the
poor now ?'
I'll give them some bread.
'You have no bread, the bread is mine.
'Then I could earn money and buy a loaf
for myself.'
'Take things as they now are, you know
what you have that is your own. What are
you willing to give to help the poor?'
give them ball' my money. I have
eight cents, and I will give them bur--
Wouldn't tliat be right ?'
'Four cents, would not go very far in mak
ing a child, so poor that it has no bed, as
comfortable and as well provided for as you
are. Four cents towards food and clothes,
and booktfand•bed, for such a one, and four
cents just for pencils or candy for yourself
don't seem fair.'
'Then, 'anther, I'll give all my money and
wihh I had more to give,' said the little boy,
as he took his good-night kiss.
Now don't you think his bed was made
softer that 'night by hikpity for the poor and
shelterless ? Don't you think he slept the
more sweetly, and that ministerinff spirits
_watch ed-his-co nett-more-Imq trgly-b-ecairse-lre
was growing to he somewhat like his Savio'r
who 'sparednot himself, but freely gave him
self up for us - all 1'
A great many children and grown persons
pray God to pity the poor, and wish Ile
would be kind to them and take care of them
like the little boy in my story.
But I as afraid too many of them world
have God to do all the work. They don't
want to help much; they don't want to give
away much-that is their own; they don't want
"to trouble themselves much about it. They
do not really love their poor neighbors as
they do themselves.

best ho can under the circumstances which
will be to conduct himself very much as
though he had not this obstacle to overcome.
5. Ile should renicrub_c_r_AJw_young mold

his desires as possible—he will thus reach

S. All:young men have 'inalienable rights,'
among which none itt.greater or more sacred
than the privilege toibe 'somebody.'

that this is not the only world to which he

A Good Love Story.'
An Ohio paper tells the following neve
story;' A young enwple_planeed an_elo_pe
went, the girl der:ended from tier room on
tie tradi - tal ladder, but at the gate they
were ,met by the lather of the girl and a
minister, by whYmithe young couple were
escorted to the parlor, where to their: sur
prise, they found all their relatives collected
for the marriage ceremonies, which took
place at once. It was a neat paternal freak,
but not near as neat as that of a 'fond pa
rient' we know of. Ile heard his daughter
and her fellow plan an elopement. The next
day the old man waited upon the young one
and addressed him thus:.
'You're a fine, brave youth, and I do not
object to yuu as a sot:4111:m. Here's a
hundred dollars to aid in the elopement.
May you live happily in the same house, and
may no accident occur to thruw the least
shade on the sunshine of your life. All I
request is that you elope with my daughter
—she's a mighty nice girl, you know, but
some how her Mother and I could never
travel smoothly with her: we don't know
her good points—elope with her to such a
distance the - Ice won't return to her loving
father ,and Lumber any moic. Good-bye,
sOany, and m y Son forever be happy.'
There was an elopement that evening of
one. The young man was unaccompanied.
,lie thought every thing could not be right
when the old cock was so anxious to git rid
of the girl. The father looks upon this net
as a very neat bit of strategy for one who
had never been on McClellan's staff.
