Fate destined us ne'er to nlct each other, Till Sonic shadow o'er oifi life was cast, When the happiest day's of childhood, Lay, forever in the nioifldering past. Though we from each other were parted, Wllen tha earth Was full of joy. And brimful was the cdp of hope. Untainted by alloy. We met till upon our soul, The Wintery winds of age bad blown, And seuttcred far and the seed, Of love, once trustful in its tone.

We met tat in our throbbing hearts," Awoke nrt echo as of old, The ivy that entwined our youth, Was torn from its parent fold, We smiled the same, but tlie eye was dim. The foot step was fanltcring, The hair changed to grey, We parted when life seemed a long happy dre mi. To meet near the gates of etefn.il day. MKS. M0Lf.fi: S.

Failing of the good I've Doing that I would'st not, Life with mviy a rl hath bi'tnd nfs, LifM high prison walls around nia, ScU mo many a hazy task, Yet if rest so fair and win dug. Bat from lifa, and cire and siaing, Might be mine for simple asking, Wouldst, I daro to ask? I have grown to love my fotters. Though they vex me oft aud sore.

Still I elhtg until the present, Knowing not what lies before. Through the shadows growin? blindly, Oh my Sivior lead mo kiudly. All my faults forgive, And safe into thy heaven guide; From all earthly weekness shriven; May I stand a soul forgiven, Liostened from my bouuidod fetters, Stand a soul forgiven.

A full realization of the fearful mistake which Laphniii hdd made flashed upou the clerk like ightening, for he remembered then that the vessel containing the poison stood in the immediate vicinity of the water eooler.

Mr. N. M. Grist of Lansing, accompanied by Dr. Dupuy Snell were in the city last Friday.

They are looking for an owning for a Drug and Book store. Una city has long needed a Store Well stocked ith books (stationery ere, such as one only, can be, when a sjieciality of tins branch of the trade is made. While we already ha two drug stores which are fully up to the average in places of thU sine, we believe a third iu connection with a bUHiies not specially repre sented here, will do well, and the additional trade a Is Kk store will bring, will benefit those already here. Business will more than double in this ciry, when every branch is represented, and our customers are able to procure everything they wish, without coin- in! here tt find out that, which is not to be had. then go elsewhere to procure it.

We hope they will, as they belong to a class of young business inert, Who honor the town, and profession, or business which they select.

If our colored friends will, like him, improve the opiortunities offered, though not always tha brightest, their condition ill soou grow brighter, for though skins may differ, true manhood- dwells in black and white the same.
