I shall mis* him when the flower* come, In the garden where he played ; 1 *hall mis* him more by the fireside, When the flower* have all decayed. I shall see hi* toy* aud hi* empty chair, And the bone he used to ride ; And they will apeak with ailent apcecb Of the little boy that died. 1 shall see his little sister again With her playmates about the door, Aud I'll watch the children in their sport*. A* I never did before : And if in the group I see a child That is dimpled and laughing-eyed, I'll look to see if it may not be The little boy that died. We shall all go home to our father's house, To our Father's house in the skies, Where the hope of our son! will know no blight, And our love no broken ties. We shall roam on the banks of the river of peace. And bathe in its blissful tide. And one of the joy* of our heaven shall be The little boy that died I The Mom Rom.

Since writing the above we have received the following graphic and interesting ac count of the execution of Ouhim and F'ikrki, in the Paris corres]*ondcuce of the Ixmdon Tmu* l SOKMCS NBAS TUB Hc’AKKIILD AT DAYHRKAK. This morning the weather was bitterly cold, and the ground wet from the snow which had fallen. The sky was covered with clouds of a slate color, and under that dismal canopy dark grey mists, transparent like funeral crape, were daifting about. The streets in the more distant parts of the city were deserted, but os you neared the quar ter contigous to the prison, detached squads ot Hergens de V ille might lie wen moving towards the same direction, the occasional Hash of bayonets in the gaslight was dis cernible, and nearer still the Tague mass, without form or outline, and heaving to and fro, showed thut the awful moment was ap proaching. Now and then a butcher's or a or a market gardener's tart, with its red lamb in front, roiled heavily along, and with difficulty made its way though the crowd.— Manyoftlie sp-ctators had brought their breakfasts with tliem ; they hud their loaves under their arms, their pipes in their mouths. Home men were grave and scrioas, and spoke in a low tone of voice ; others jest*d anil laughed, and ninny observe] that the pris oners well deserved their fate. About fif teen jiais'S from the gate of the prison the sealfold was erected, and on it rose the in strument of death, the nam-' of which re calls so many terrible associations. There it stood on its plutform like u ladder, with out sti-pa—the block with the hole for the head to enter, at the lower end ; at the up per the heavy knife of triangular shape,with its edge like a razors ; hard by it the shell lor the b<sly after decapitation, and in front t lie Im.-kt.-t for the bead; the cord by which the blade is kept suspended, the frame work painted a dull red, just discerned in the dis mal glimmering of a winter's morning, all presented a most hideous sjicctaele.
