LOST.
BY JOSEPH L. BUTLER.
Lost—many sunless years
Upon the road of life;
Old, faded relics, stained with tears,
And scarred by fruitless strife.
Lost, never, to be fotnd—
Gone, gone - for evermore;
Swept on the ebbing Spring of time,
To an-eternal-shore.
They vanished one by one,
Each bearing on its breast
A life not lived, a work undone,
A tree- ure not possessed;
Something for which, it seems,
My soul has vainly sought,
The waking truth of happy dreams,
That lime has never brought.
Alas ! the weary days,
Unwelcome in the past,
Are with me yet; my skies are dark,
And night is gathering fast.
I strain m v teartess eyes
To pierce th.• thickening gloom;
And, 'mid the shadows, seems to rise
A vision of thr• tomb.
Life and Death
Life is but Death's vestibule, and our
pilgrimage on earth is but a journey to the
grave, the pul4e that preserves our being
beats our dead march, and the blood which
circulates our life le floating it onward to
the depths of death. To day we see our
friends in health; to morrow we hear of their
decease We clasped the hand of the strong
man but yesterday, and to day we closed his
eyes. We rode in a chariot of comfort but
an hour ago, and in a few more hours the
last black chariot must convey 119 to the
home of all the living. Oh, bur; cloaely
allied is death to life ! The lamb that sport.
(oh in the field must soon feel the knife.—
The 9$ that is in the pasture is fattening
for the slaughter. Trees do but grow that
they may be felled. Yea, and greater things
than these feel death. .Empires rise and
flourish, they flourish but to decay, they rise
but to fall.
Haw often do we take up a volume of
history and read of the rise and fall of em
pires? We hear of thicoronation and death
of Kings. Death is the black servant who
rides behind the chariot of life. See life and
death is close behind it. Death reaches far
throughout this world and has stamped ter
restial things with the broad arrows of the
grave Stars die mayhaps, it is said that
conflagrations have been alar off in the ether,
and astronomers have marked the funerals
of other worlds—the decay of these mighty
orbs thatwe have imagined set forever in
sockets of silver to glisten as the lamps of
eternity. Blessed be God there is one place
where death is not life's brother, where life
reigns alone, and 'to live' is not the first
syllable whier is to be followed by the next,
'to die.' There is a land where the death
knells are never tolled, where winding sheets
are never woven, where graves are never
dug. Blest land beyond the skies. To reach
is we must die.—Spurgeon.

Touching Incident.
Some days after one of the English steam
ers had left Liverpool, a bright looking boy;
about eight years old, was found aboard, who
had been concealed in the vessersinee she
left port, (which, by the way, is quite a com
a , occurrewee - .)Ili was questioned-by-Hod
officers as to how he came there. He stated
that beLwas an orphan, and had an aunt liv
ing in Halifax, and that hie uncle in Liver
pool being poor - and unable to support him,
had hid him in the vessel just before sailing,
so that he might go up to Halifax and live
with his aunt.
It seemed like the old story to the officers
of the vessel and they accused him of being
helped by the crew; and tried their utmost
by conking, and threatening to have him di•
vulge that some of the sailors had taken him
aboard and gave him foi:ml. Bat they availed
nothing—the little fell'ow would tell no oth
er story. At last one of the officers, feeling
-sure - that the boy was dreeivinv, them, took
_him by the--arm,-and-said,ALam-going-to
make you tell the truth;' and taking him to
what is called the bridge, says, •In one half
hour I shall hang you unless you tell me
which of the sailors has been feeding you.
It was of no use—the boy would not lie ;
and when the officer-told-him sternly-that he
had only two minutes to live, the little fel
low said, 'Sir, may I pray F' and immediate
ly sunk on his knees. and lifting his little

faces of the passengers_and crew of the ves•

sult of the ttffieer's experiment; but on see
ing the brave hoe wh , ,se love of truth was
stioneer than that of life and hearing him
so fit trily repeat his prayer, it was too much
for their doubts, and caused a very affecting
scene.
The apparently rough officer burst into
tears aad eau: , rms
and hugged him as thoui , h in reality he had_
just escaped death. After this event the
boy was a young hero in the ship He was
praised and treated with daßities, each one
anxious to do something for such a noble
boy; and when he arrived in Halifax, ho
was taken by the same officer who had doubt

To•day and To-morrow.
To-day we gather bright and beautiful
flowers—to-morrow they are faded and dead.
To-day a wealth of leaven shades us—to
_morrow _sere-and.fallen,they crumble beneath
our tread.
To-day the earth is covered with a carpet
of green—to morrow it is brown with the
withered grass.
To-day the vigorous stalk only bends be
fore the gale—to morrow leafless and sapless,
- a - child may break the brittle stem:
To-day the ripening fruit and waving gain
;—to mot row 'the land is taking its rest after
the toil.'
To day we hear sweet songs tors of mea
dows and forest, and buzz and hum of myriad
insects—to•morrow—breathe softly—all na
ture is hUsbed and silent
To-day a'stately edifice;complete in finish
and surrounding, attracts the passer by—to-
morrow a heap of ruins marks the site.
To-day tbere are cattle upon the thousand
hills—to morrow they fall in slaughter.
The fashion of the world passeth away.
But let Christ dwell within us, and though
we may pass away like the faded leaf and
the sapless stalk, we shall 'arise in newness
of lire,
4 11' here everlasting spring abides,
And never withering flowers.'

writes to the Central cirristian Advocate,
from Pleasant Plains Ill.: •I think it, quite
probable that the good Lord will give me my

the old pioneers of the early days of Meth

traveling preacher must have gone through
in that time. for although I have been a
regular traveling preacher sixty five years
next tall, I have never received my discip

but three years of that long traveling life;
and yet, thank God, I would rather have the

BUSINESS AND REramoN.--In a relizious

On the night' after the battle 'of Five

weather had been miserable, the rains were
violent, the roads almost impassable, horses
arid caissons and army wagons floundered in
the quicksands. As • far as Grant's left
stretched out, so far Lee still confronted him.
Sheridan had been fighting at Dinwiddie,
and Lee bad reached around almost io Grant's
rear to strike at Sheridan,— bad, indeed,
dealt him a heavy blow. But to do this the
enemy had to divide his own "force. hoping
to get back before Grant could- attack the

report to-the General in-Chief-the-result of
the fight at the earliest moment. One of
them had already returned, bringing word of
success,—how complete was not yet known.
Finally, the ottter_arrived with a full report
from Sheridan He was in great excitement,
having ridden hard, ten miles or more, from
the field of victory. Five Forks was won.
Grant listened calmly, only now and then
interrupting the officer to ask a question.—
When all was told, he rose, without saying a
word, entered his tent, where a candle flick
ered on the table, invited no one to join him,
hut wrote a despatch in sight of the officers
outside, and gave it to an orderly Theo,

as calmly as if he were saying, 'Et is a windy

remembers whit - That meant,--how many such
attacks had been made and how often with
little result; in what light the North had
come to regard these assaults upon fortified
works , how disastrous repulse would have
bee• : , part-1
of his army ten miles away, —the promptness
of the decision can be better appreciated
But Grant felt that the hour and the oppor
tunity had arrived; he had that intuitive
sympathy with his soldiers which every great
commander feels. he knew that they must
be inspired by Sheridan's victory as much as
the Rebels would be depressed, and now was
the time to take advantage of this feeling,

There are few countries in the world less
written about than Guyana. Although re
maining there „almost a week I acquired. a
less knowledge of it than of any other I have
ever visited. By looking at the map you
observe that it is a; law tract, more than

It is said by some that Christopher Co
lumbus discovered Guyana, while others
claim that Vasco-Nunez is entitled-to that
honor. Whether Columbus himself ever ac
tually_landed seems_not_to-be-positively-as
certained. It is certain however that the
Spaniards settled here early in the sixteenth
century, for in 1580 the Dutch tried to es
tablish a eolony and were driven out by the
Spaniards.

placid Carribbean and scarcely raised above
its level; it is almost unsuitable to live.-
Though tempered by a breeze from the sea

of the Andes the climate is more endurable,
and towards these mountains are a series of
Savannas indicating with the geological
structure of the region that it was once, the
bed of a lake which by some means burst its
barriers and forced for its waters a passage
to the sea This supposition may account
for the origin of the tradition of the 'White

the ardour-of-the-Chivalrie-R-akigh-and-led
him to the pursuit of those discoveries by
which Ms name has been immortalized.

him he could not keep him, but would give
