SHALL WE RECOGNIZE EARTHLY FRIENDS
IN HEAVEN?
Is it wrong t wish to see Item,- , -Who
were 'dear to us on earth;
Who have goneo Heavenly mansions ,
Who surround a brighter hearth?
Is it wrong to rrouro their absence,
From the parted household band;
Should we check the &Igh of sadness,
Though thej're in a brighter land?
Is it wrong to Lope to meet them
Yet upon that I blessed 'shore,'
.And with shouts of joy to greet them
When this toil of life is o'er?
Is it wrong to thiol them deatcr
Thao the Djany of the blest,
Who to us on earth were strangers.
Must we love them like the rest?
We've a mother up in Heaven,
And oh ! tell me if ye will,
Will that inotter know her children,
Will she recollect them still '!
Can she look down from those windows,
On this dark and distant shore;
Will she know when we are coming,
Will she meet us at the door?
And jhou loved one, who did'st leave us,
Iu the morning of tby Llooru ;
Dearest brother shall we meet thee,
When we go beyond the tomb?
.Shall we sec thy lovely features,
Shall we hear thy pleasant voice,
Sounding o'er our spirit's heart strings
Like the melody of birds?
Ah ! 'tis true the soul must suffer,
And be bound with anguish down,
Ere 'tis fitted lor its dwelling,
lire 'tis ready for its crown.
But oh ! Jesus! blessed Jes-us!
Thou art loved without alloy;
Thou wilt meet us, thou wilt bless us,
Thou wilt yive us perfect joy.

Amusino Anecdote. Daniel Webster, had
nn anecdote of old Father Searl, the minister of
I his bojhood, which is too good to be lost It
was customary then to wear buck-skin breeches
i in fool weather. , One Sunday morning 'in the
Jautum, Father Searl brought bis ..breeches down
i from the garret, but the wasps had taken pos
session during the summer,-and i were having
a nice time of it in" them. By dint pf effort he
got out the intruders 'f and dressed for meeting.
But while reading the scriptures to the congre
gation he felt a dagger from one of the enraged
t-ruall watsted fellows, and jumped around the
pulpet slapping his thighs. But the, more he
slapped and danced the more they 6tung " The
people thought him crazy, but he explained the
matter by saying : 'Brethren, don't be alarmed;
the wprd of. the Lord is in my mouth, but the
devil i in my breeches I" - Webster always told
it with great glee to the ministers. !

This is to certify that I applied the Bone Flour
and Pacific Guano purchased of Hutchison, Bur
roughs k Co. one hundred pounds of' the former
and one hundred and twenty-five pounds of the
latter to three-quarters of an acre of laud. The
land would have produced, without manure, seven

was lost by lodging. The yield was sixteen bushels
of Wheat. It the. Wheat had all been saved the
yield would have been probably twenty-five bushels
