Never t- feel what Borrow is, Ever to bask in cloudless hiis. Dear one I'll Meet thee on that .shore, Aud live with God for evermore, Yieiug with Miints Hu name to praise Immortal life, unending day: Shall Uuch us on She throne t gaze. Then. faVe-thee-wi 11, sweet sister (b ar. An angel bright thou reignest now, Again I would not have thee lu re, With gloomy wo to ekud thy brosr. Yes, Jan.y. thine's a happy boaae Thy Saviour, tender, loving, kind; Sorrow to thee can never come : lu Heaven we nought but joy can find. Thy loved-ones shall regret BO more That thou bast left thine earthly home, Since thou on angel-wing can.st soar, And o'er ely.-iau fields Canst roam. Then sister, dear, a brier farewell. Till u e shall wash our garments cl an, We too, our harps of gold shall swell. And praise the Lamb who dost redeem. Pineville, N. C J. J. I).

LUCKY AND AND UNLUCKY DAYS. Even to this enlightened age, people hare their fortunate and unfortunate days, and the educated are by no means exempt from the superstition. Only certain days are deemed lucky for transactingbusiness upon. And the absurdity is carried so far that it is considered very unlucky to pare your nails on Sunday ; and if you do it on Friday, you are sure to come to sorrow. Friday is, par excellence, the !. lack letter day of the -even, and it is astonishing how general is the prejudice against that day. Farmers dislike the day for all their operations: some merchants will not accept bills on Friday ; sailor? will not willingly put to sea on that day; and it is well known that Fri day is rarely, if ever a wedding day, in any bJmi of society. How a bride would shrink with horror from the proposal to be married on a Friday ! Yet, as if to show mankind how redioulous are these kind of prejudices, history can prove tl.at Friday has been the most fortunate day in the national calender of the United States of America. A few facts on this subject will be instructive : On Friday, August 21, 1492, Columbus sailed on bis great voyage of discovery. On Friday, October 12, 1492, be made his first discovery. He returned to Spain on Friday, Jan. 4, 1 103. On Friday, June 13, 1494, unknown to himself, he discovered the continent of America, in short, r nday was Columbus lucky day, and. as regards the continent of America, may almost be Said to be a Saint Day, for all its great and most lasting events occurred on Friday. On Friday, March 5, 1 !'.'i, Henry VIII gave John Cabot Ids commission, which led ;' to the discovery of North America. On Friday, November 10, 1020, the May Flower, with the Pilgrims, made the harbor of Providence Town, and laid the foundation of the American Constitution. George Washington was born on Friday, ami, during the war of the devolution, dl tho victories won hy the Americans were ootaincd ou u Friday And to crown this series "f triumphs, for a day held in suc h disesteem in Europe, on Friday, July 4, 1??G, the motion in Con gress was carried, declaring the United Colonies free and independent. o.. ..... .-.. ... uu 1 'iv.
