SAVANNAH, WEDNESDAY, KAY 9, 1868.
Old Letter..
The rain was blowing in quick white gusts ;
With yellow leaves the air was darkling ;
The storm was moaning of death and graves ;
No moon dared shine, no star was sparkling.
The elms were roaring around the house
With a frantic grief and wild despair ;
The wind gave a warning B inshee wail
From the beggared wood that was all but bale.
Then I opened the casket once ao dear.
And took out the letters I’d kissed so oft;
The paper was still by the rose-leaf tinged ;
Its breath was like hers—so sweet and so soft.
Slowly as one at a sacrifice.
With face averted, I fed the flame :
Ruthless and cruel, the serpent tongues,
Swift and eager and leaping, came.
Hopes and joys, they were dreams and air!
I sat down sad by ray funeral pile,
And heard the roar of the ruthless fire.
And “(Sod forgive her I moaned the while.
There was a blaze and a crimson glare,
A wavering pyramid tall and keen ;
Then came a waft of smouldering smoke.
That rose in a circling vapory screen.
Meleager's fagot—so went my life, v
Spring and Summer, and Autumn, too';
Its daybreak promise, its riper thoughts,
Its tears of sorrow, its sunshine dew.
I sat like a mourner beside the pile ;
All X had loved had passed away ;
Nothing for me but to hope for flowers
To bloom and gladden my burial clay.
There lay my life—a clinking heap
Of curling ashes that fell to naught,
A glitter of one or two passing sparks—
That was all that my love had brought.

sOrtacfe, beautiful in appearance and a sure protection
against fire. The Mica being a reflector and non-con-
