In twilight’s diejmy, mystic hour,
A prayer and wi9h for thee comes o’er me,
Thatjxom thy future I had power,
All shadows dark, to castaway.
Scarce sixteen years bnVe passed over,
Still thy young heart has had its woes,
Thy parents lost to thee in childhood
Aud of other trials, bitter stores.
Meekly have you bowed in silence
None to see your tears but God ;
Humbiy asking love and guidance
For faith, to kiss his chastuing rod*
Barely God, in all his Wisdom
Will grant thee years of future joy.
Point to these ciotids a “silver lining’*
Aud happiness without alloy.
Yet not on earth, hiy child, look.for this,
’Tis found alone in Heaven above {
Where trials end in dreamless bliss,
Eternal peace—ana joy and love
“Oakland” Sept. Ist., IBTO*
“WHILE i LITE I HOPE*”
Datk clouds may cast a gloomy shade,
The sun may cease to thine ;
The summer's beauties all may fade,
Aud leave no summer’a sign,
A furious storm may rise and spread,
Aud bellow loud aud long ;
The manly heart its rage tmiy draad,
The cheerful cease the song.
Still tempest never last so long
That hope yields to despair ;
A murmer may escape the tongue—
But hope—sweet hope—is there.
Hearts may indeed be sore oppressed
With painful fears and grief.
Yet something whispers in the Ineast
Soon there may be lelief.
Saw ye not yesterday a lad,
With korrow in his eye ?
His brow was dark, his heart Was sad,
And nothing gave him joy.
Fortune a ith bitter taunts passed by,
And pierced his fair young heart ;
Ho sighed and wept and wish’d to die,
So paiuful was the smart.
But scarcely had the wish gain’d birth,
Than hope was at Lis side ;
His face put on a mark of mirth,
Aud thus iu hope he cried—
“Oh ! what though storm assail to-day,
And all my joys destroy !
To morrow tho>e will pass away,
And sunshine brings back joy.
“For fortune never looks o sad.
Or breathes so odd a breath.
But Hope B.H)n comes to make me glad,
Aud cheer me on till death.
“Then why should I indulge in grief,
My heart to sorrow give t
With passing time there comes relief,
I hope, then while I live.”

Letter From ‘Guesswhere-’
“pusanwHißK,*’ Aug. 37, 1870.
M- . Editor?—l pick up my pen—with a
qwry right Upon the tip ot end of U. Why
do you w* f hr varieties’ sake at least, ro
gale tbo readers ol the Swt with an occa
sional contribution in the way of a stray
bit of peltry, a letter, or so<aething of the
8)»rt fair pet? Are you anti*
woman’* rights to that extent ? If I reaUy
thought so, | should be tempted, ala ‘Ro
sie Rattle,’ to throw a regular ‘MilraiUer*
into your midst. Mv word furit/twoild en
hance its interest ten flo'd. Take away
that miserably one-sided, monotonous, pro
saic, stale, stiff style—so characteristic,
not only to newspapers ; but in short, eve
ry thing where woman’s smile is wanting.
‘ W-h -e -w P I here you exclaim, ’that’s an
assertion worth while sure ’’ Ah, well 1
be that as it. may, I dark tou refute IT 1
(you’ll perceive I’m at least ‘daring.’
Talk about the Lords of Creatjon 1, Migh
ty Man 1 ‘with powers which dart liina from
earth to heaveu in a moment—r that great,
that most excellent, that most noble crea
title of the world.’ The miracle of uaturo,
as Zoroaster, in his book called him—the
Shekinah of the Divine presence, as Chrys
ostous —the image of God, as Moses—the
ray of Divinity, as Plato—the marvel of
marvels,as Aristotle. Bah! its all fudge 1—
/don’t see it 1 tor it seems to me that ever
since Mrs. Adam made her 6>;.st appearance
in the Gat den of Eden, gen’** woman has
induced him to follow her lead.
“The Garden was wild ;
And man. the hermit sighed’till womansmiled.”
t>f course—and the first, smile that ever
threw its sunny light over his dark mous
taches was but the reflection of the smile
that awoke the sleeping dimples in her
cheek. What if my lady did weary of the
unchanging beauty and bliss of Paradise,
and longed to see what was on the other
side of the Pearly Gutes—pushed them
open and walked in—did not matt follow
her footprints ? And hasn’t she been lead
ing him through ihe hriais, thickets and
thorny paths of this rough world from that
day to this ? And think you, he’s learned
wisdom by experience ? Not a bit of it ;
for he’d do the very same thing over again
and 1 don’t know that I could much btarne
him—for without the music of woman’s
voice and the light of wo nan’s smile this
world at best would be a desert ; its beau
tiful scenery would lose its power'; its
flowers would lose their fragrance ; its
treasures of gems at:d gold Would be val
ueless, ‘Oil, woman 1 Heaven’s last In'st
gift.’ Without her the earth would be de
void of a single green spot to cheer the
eye, or comfort the heart, And masculin
ity, a piece of blank paper not even r-w-'ed.
So there f you have it J And again—
'“Oh woman tn our hours of ease,
Uncertain, ooy and hard to please i
But when pain and angubh wring the brow,
A ministering angel thou !”
And tTie truth of the business, Mr. Ed

that old father Adam (peace to his .ashes)

we’ve quite as much right to them as they

we pay far them—when they, often read
them without paying for tm*m. And there
