Were I to <1ic to-night, some tearful eje Might look upon me lovingly ; Might place »wcet flowers upon my brow, Forget my sins of life ami love me now. The love I longed for in my weary life Might come in death aud crown me pale and fair, As some sweet thought, press kissi-s on my hair, Sweet lips might murmur, "safe from strife!” Oh God ! and is it thus ? wc live in vain, And after death, then other hearts feel pain ? Why not the joy come to us in sweet youth When we deem'd this a world of truth! Ah yes! If I could die to-night And softly fold my hands upon my breast, And gently rise on wings of light, I than might find a never ending rest. To fold my hands so icy and ao cold To close my eyes and calmly sleep with God, To play ou harps of pure and virgin gold While e’en my clay lay still beneath the sod. Oh love 1 without thee, life is all a blot, A weary line, a never coming day. No varnal showers, no balmy breath of may, l*eace never comes ami woe it changes not, I pray theo God, oh crown my life with love As sweet as e'en thy angels feel above— Grant me a wife’s pure love so heavenly sweet As Mary felt when bathing Thy dear feet.

Tlio Sabbath day, whether re garded in a religious point of vieW or not . is ever the choicest and best of the seven. Regarded mi a season of repose from the toils of laborious oeeupations, as much as may he a forgetfulness of itd cares and vexations, it is of.the utmost importance in renovating the wasted, exhausted powers of the muscle and the brain. But ab solute rest the brain refuses,, anti the mind, which requires to bd unbent, still must he active; it must have something to interest, and (if the term is allowable,) tof amuse it, even on the, bahlath. Why not, if the amusement is in- noeent, and in harmony with the saeredness of the day? Then* was a time when our Puritan fore fathers thought it a sin to take a stroll through a sequestered grove, or even to smile, on that holy day; and a musical instrument was nn abomination. But now, our views are changed; and yet, here and there is to he found a person who regards a piano as something not to he used on the Sabbath. Hie instrument is closed on Saturday’, and must not he opened until Monday. But what can he more pleasing, beneficial, and Induclvo 1 to the improvement of mind and ! heart, than music? If the mom- ! hers of a family enjoy ninsie, let j t Lo piano lie opened, and let an i hour or two he passed with music and song. Adapt the style of music to the ideas of the listeners. If any object to secular musjty employ sacred. Every’ family, where music is a delight, should have a collection of music; ready, on purpose for Sunday use. But not only sacred songs are desirable and' appropriate, but very many purely instrumental pieces, wherein the devotional spirit may supply the words as the heart prompts. In fact, wc think there is very little genuine art-music, calculated to exalt and refine, that should he excluded ou the Sabbath. Bacchanalian songs and frivolous dancc-music may Ito out of place, hut why any other? Listen to the peals of the organ as you enter the church. It you have any one at home who can ex ecute such music, gather around the piano aud listen. It will do you good, and can do no harm.-7— Church's Musical Visitor. look Ool for Fioe Beef, W R.
