FRIDAY, AUGUST 12, 1881. Poetry. (HI1.I)11(M)1). BY GEORGE I>. PRESTICB. I ’Tis sad, yet sweet to listen To the soft wind's gentle swell; And think we hear the music ' | Our childhood loved so well; To gaze out on the eve, And the boundless fields of air, And feel again our boyhood’s wish, To roam like angels there. There are many dreams of gladness And That from cling the arbuiqj tomb of the feeling past, Old thoughts come thronging fast; The forms we loved so dearly. In the happy (lavs now gone, The beautiful and lovely, So fair to look upon. Those bright and gentle maidens, tSSSX a J“L°n.y iss ’ For such a world as this; j Whose dark, soft eyes seemed swimming O'er brows XUw streaming | SO sunny brillllt. " ! Like the brightest buds of summer, I Yes, They oh, have fallen from the stein; it is a lovely dream, To fade from earyilike them. And yet the thought is saddening, To muse on such us they, And feel that all the beautiful Are passing swift away! That the fair ones whom we love, Grow to each loving breast, I,ike tendrils of the clinging vine, And perish where they rest. Miscellaneous. [ Communicated. ] Burial of Charlie Overton. [Sacred to the memory of one who died away from homo and who was buried in the city of A ugusta by strang¬ ers.] Yonder is the ojien grave and tearful oyes looking down upon it. Slowly the hearse moves on as if it is wearisome to bear the young unwearied form to that cold couch which age and sorrow might render sweet to man. There seems a sadness in the air bending down the long grass upon those verdant mounds wdrere raAH*Srtdw oidhping. There is a train of people, some fair ones with brows of bloom and shining tresses, standing near the brink of that dark [lit in pensive thought waiting the ap¬ proach of the corpse. They are there to meet one not as the gay bird meets the spring, brushing the dew-drops from the j morning flowers, breathing mirth and gladness; but their hearts are sad and their movements are fashioned to the deep-toned bell, some of them are, per¬ haps, those sorrowing friends who watch¬ ed so closely his journey through the shadowy vale that almost to their hearts the ice of death enters from his. For many months fair Charlie had been wast¬ ing like a snow .wreath which the sun marks for his own on some mountain’s breast and tinges long with rosy light. In the dismal night consumption crept into lijs breast. Hushed his cheek, bleach¬ ed his skin, and feasted away the vital j spark of life. Many a restless night ho listened to the death watch tick and was convinced that only a short breath held him from ! ■ that grave yonder where youth and beati ty must sleep together. But the grave is Hot the goal. Deat h Call not CUIlCCl I the gt oat band that bold commingling \ | spirits. Thoughts that have no bounds, I that search out the Eternal Mind can ; not become inmates of the tomb; but ! must rise and shine iu that bright day | which ends not. In trembling prayer I we hear those dear people ' lifting their hearts to God who is the that’ Judge of ill who so loves tins world lie will let | his light shine even at the last hour, suffered his neace so dove-like to res! with some who had loved earth and its pleasures, so fondlv urged young <;tiar)ie 1 to count and resign the allurements of a tion. world so When dear, that and voice to find within a better speaks por- j us tlie startling word, “Soul thou shall nev er die,” we desire at once to know God * hy a mysterious sense; to feel Ilis nii seen presence; to learn tire song of our great immortality Jrericc that same sweet voice of joy might cause those marble lips in life’s last strife to claim an ever lasting home. Those who stand aroumi met fair brow and those unf rested locks must . too t return to dust, , must wait the , morning of the resurrection—be not then ca.it down nor fl’sgusLed in uo|h ; but. l»e in failjfclifliug the heart to Ilim who gives tire victory. Living souls; resist no more, Nor Dreatj tl(us not the grave’s cold gloom, complain that my sweet life Is darkened in tbe tomb ! There’s a fulness in God's mercy, Like the fulness of tbe sea; There’s a kindness in this justice Which is all that life to me. There’s never a heart so haughty; <b 'f ,; ’‘. b ' ow an f 1 v ‘-_r a o-a. - ...» wounded 1 ! ‘ d ~ vhe savior can not heal. There s no place where earthly sorrows At - more felt than in Heaven; There's no place where earthlv failing Have such kind iustiee ” 1 justice given. mven For the love of God is broader ThaiPthe measure of man's mind, And the. heart of the Eternal Is mot Wonderfully kind. 1 once made His love too narrow By false limits of my own; And I magnified Ilis strictness Wit!zeal lie would not own. When ’ found my sweet life wasting I the—irayed, not doubting thus; Weepinj. lowly, trusting freely, • His great tenderness for ns. I found lis love great, yet simple; Only Jousting on His word, And giving all earth’s fair sunshine. Died i a the sweetness of the Lord.
