uy MARGARET ELLIOTE,
7-_—_—_
I heard sweet voices in the night,
And lo! my room was filled with light.
Two angels stood beside my bed—
One at the foot—one at the head.
The one was calm and astern of face,
Yet clothed with celestial grace.
The other fair, and sad, and sweet,
Like her who sat at Jesus’ feet.
The angel spake: ‘Come thou with me
And list thou what thy doom shall be.
Thon hast done evilall thy days,
And curses took the place of praise.
‘Of such the Master spake the doom,
‘Whither I go ye cannot come!
“‘Nay,”’ quoth tlre other, ‘he shall live,
For much the Master doth forgive.
And much forgiveness works much love,
And love to labor quick doth move,
Tabor and love shall thus atone
Vor all the evil he hath done.”
The voices ceased, and in my room
The light still banished all the gloom. Ps
Trembling, I bade my heart be still,
And wait to know the Master’s will.
Nevada, January 8th 1861.—jan8-tf
The voice said sweetly, as before,
“Thou art forgiven—sin no more ,”’
Sinee then I walk as though alone,
Yet seeing th’ Invisible One.
And with a weariness of earth,
Longing, I wait my heavenly birth.

~The following is from the penof B. F,
Taylor, of the Chicago Journal :
“Some fling off their garments as if they
wore the shirt of Nw@esus—wasn’t that his
name ?—and were particularly anxious to
get atit, Here whirls a vest in one corner
—its contents jingling to the floor as it lies.
There goes a boot riochet, The stockings
are turned inside out; the hapless coat
hangs by its skirt to a nail; and the bed is
attained witha bound, Pillows tumbled
this way and that ; the feet are inserted between the sheets, and, like a shuttle through
a loom, down gues the body; one arm is
flung under the head ; lower jaw aud eyeMiter tane?. UNDERSELL ANY HOUSE IN . —asleep all over—asleep for all night.
Another goes tetering about on his toes.
He puts his watch here, bis coat there, and
his vest there. His boots stand side by side
like a brace of grenadiers ; the tips of his
stockings peep out systematically to the
top; and if it be winter, he lingers upon
the bed’s edge like one about to take a
bath—dreading, yet desiring, and finally
steals into bed by degrees, draws the quilt
and the counterpane over his bead, and is
motionless—is gone—arrives in the land of
* Nod.
If one only thinks of it, sleep, in a great
city, is a queer thing. Think of fifty thousand in this city all sleeping at once. Fifty
thousand, in tiers one, two, three, four, five
deep, from cellar to garret. Fifty thousand
in rows a mile long. Ten thousand in red
dingy nightcaps, tasseled and untasseled.
Ten thousand in dingy ones that were white,
Mondays and Mondays ago. Five thousand
in silken oner, Some edged beautifully,
some hemmed with a sail needle, and some
uncapped altogether, with locks dishevelled
and ruffled like *quills.apon the fretful porcupine.”’ '
ive thousand snoring alto—five thousand snoring baes. Tweuty thousand under
calico. A bundred or 80 beneath silk.
Some weeping—some smiling in their
dreams—others dreamless as the grave.
Ringlets twisted up in cigar lighters—tressoe over the pillow—no tresses at
all.
Even asleep, humanity preserves its peculiarities, Evenin dreams, men are distinctive still.’
