EVENING STAR. WHEN STARS ARE IN THE SKIES. BY E.L. BULWER. When stars are in the quiet skies Then most | pine for thee ; Bend cn me then thy tender eyes, As stars look on the sea. Por thoughtr, like waves that glide by night, Ar- stillest when they shine, Mine earthiv love lies hushed In light Beneath the heaven of thine. ‘There is an hour when angels keep Familiar watch o’er men, When coarser souls are wrapped in sleep— Sweet spirit, meet me then ! There is an hour when holy dreams Ti h slumber fairest glide, And in that mystic hour it seems Thou shouldst be by my side. The thoughts of thee too sacred are For dayiight’s common beam; I can but Know thee as my star, My angel and my dream! When stars are in the quiet skies, Then most I pine for thee; Bend on me then thy tender eyes, As stars look on the sea. — A Worp iv Trve —“In the Confer- ence, when Elder P. was Presiding Elder, there wore three brothers, all preachers, and not generally considered very bright. One bad examined, and had gone out for the conference tv pass upon him. Eider P., as presiding officer, rose to give his opinion. “*Brethren,’’ said he, “these S—s, all of them. are well meaning men—they’re men—I iney re good Chr.stians; but there’s no mistake about it, they're all of them got a very soft — in their heeds somewhere.”’ Turning his ead a little, ho met the indignant eyes of the two other broth@rs fastened full upon him Without changing a muscle, he raised one band to emphasize his words, and with a cu- rious expression of countenance, stealing on, he continued: ‘‘And to tell the truth about it, who ha’n’t—who ha’n’t?”” Beavtirv, Soae.—Sir Walter Scott, in his “ Woodstock,”’ remarks, with rare felici- ty: “ There is, I know not why, something peculiarly pleasing to the imagination, in con- templating the Queen of Night, when she is wading, as the expression is, among the va- pours which she has not yet the power to dis- pel, and which. on their side, are unable entirely to — eghre It is the strik ing image of patient virtue, calmly treadin her path through good report and bad fopact: having that excellance in herself which ought to command all admiration, but bedimmed in the eyos of the world, by snffering, by misfor tune, by calamity.” Tovcnine Eptrarx.—lt is refreshing to find upon the tombstone of de worth, sueh delicate sentiments of profound respect as are embodied in the following lines cut upon a tombstone : ‘‘ Here lies Mayor Parker, 4 Whom the Lord saw fit to slaughter, He died without any fears, Was buried without any tears, ~ And where he’s gone and how he fares Ne one knows ana no one cares. 4 —_—_———— ee MOVEMENTS OF OCEAN STEAMEBRS.
