Dedicated to the Lteud Ore ofutati
Sitting it the evening twilibgh
While tile darkness gathers taet,
On my heart the shadows deepea
As I thllpk upon the past.
Yet those bright and golden momelsa
Seem inshed a kiindlier ray
O'er the abtsence, long.and wearv,
From my loved ones far away.
Ohpy snml is sad and lonely,
nd Iilong to clasp oted rra6l,
To Irny heart the loved and.absent1
As I have in days 0of yre.
Tender thougbhts of thoie that love me.
Of the cherishod ottbe at houe,
Like sweet chimes of Mem'ry'c musie
To my saddened spirit come.
As ipeol the tbirsty flow'ret
Falls the gentle sulmmer's raian
To its drooping petals giving.
Bloom andl fragrance once :igrn.
Yet any soul is sad and lonely.
And I long to clasp once more.
To my heart the lored and absent,
As I have in days of yore.
Buit byornd the deep'ning shadows.
Of thle dark cheerless niht,
C'omuns the raeliant sutn of morning.
With Its calm and holy ligh..
go our hearta. thotidh fall of sorrow,
Yet shall greet a happier day,
When the ann of Peace returnling.
Drives the clouds of War away.
Yet my soul is sad and lonely.
And I long to clasp once mori;
To my heart the loved and absent.
As I have in dlays of yore.
Death of a Dwarf in Parrs.-The
ldath of a. celebrity, a dwarf in
Paris, til,. Fre 'ch counterpart of the
American T'om Thumb, is recorded.
In his sixteenth year he was placed
,in the establiihtuent of the Duchess
of Orleans, the brother of the citi
zen king. and was so small at that
age that he passed for an infant, and
so dressed. During the stormy pe
rind of the first revolution, secret
d;spatche.s were sent by h;m, which
thus reached without susflicion the
Orv.l famtily of France. To the day
of h9: .loath this dwarf, named Rich
iourg, received a paesion from the
Orleans faimily of 3000 francs a
year, qt;vwtlent to £120 of our mo
ney. During the last thirty years
hb has lived in the samne hlouse, in
the F:unbourg St. Germain. Unlike
T.in Tl'humui,. hIt had a horror of ap
pearing in tpubtlic, and for nearly half
a life time has never crossed the
threshold of his own door. Not the
ti". t renmarkable feature in the ca
reer of this creature is the fact that
he lived to the age of 92 years.
