A HOTHERS LAMENT.
A dreamless sleep hung heavy o'er my
eyes,
As if in Lethe'a dismal stream
1 drown'd niv anxiou3 cares to rise no
more;
No more to be, nor yet to seem.
Perhaps 'twas peace and not oblivion;
Tho peace of God which angels feel,
That sometimes on the human heart and
s:ul,
Doth leave its saered seal.
As quiet as tho evening dew, distilled
Upon M .unt Hermon's lofty brow,
So peaceful was the early morn's repose,
Refreshing, swet, I feel it now.
But hark, a noise Death struggling hard
with Life,
Comes slow upon my drowsy ear,
And consciousness with dull"and heavy
tread
Stalked back and pierced my heart
with fear.
Once more upon that silent ni;ht that cry
FalU heavy now, and thrills my soul
With feir. My Boy !My Boy! I hear thee
moan,
What sorrows o'er my spirit roll!
My Child! My Child! The Fathers hand
outstretched
Is ready now to bear thy soul
To mansions fair tho New Jerusalem,
N death is there, no bells to toll.
The hours roll slow, tho wheels of time
hare rust
Upon their pinions. Oh! the lore
A mother bears her first, her only eon,
A polished germ frons God above.
Tis noon; tho Iris form, no image now:
And father, mother, all are past.
Poor child! the sword does pierce cur
pilgrim souls;
But you are going home at last.
Another hour is past. O Lord fargive
And heir! My spirit's .lost its tone.
It is a fountain deep of bitterness;
My boy, my precious boy, is gone.
Ah! me, I fear this is ingratitude
To God; for He is good to me.
My boy, behold, the glorious God and
Christ.
I joj. He sees the Golden City.

call their attention to a few houses there

anything in the Drug line, don't fail to
go to Reed, Whitinger & Co's. They
keep everything pertaining to tho buai
ness, and you can depend upon it that
what they tell you about an article is
corrsct. f or dooks nnu stationery, tiara
inz's is the place; and for saddles or
harness, Geo. McCallum or E. T. Cren
uhaw will do better by you than any
other firms in that eity. McMechan keeps
the right kind of a hardware establish
ment, and will sell you goods at fair
pricos. And if you should require a good
article of tobacco ot a few nice ciga.s,
or a small quantity ot "the enemy," Cap.
Laboo can accommodate you with tho
best. There may be other good firms in
Nebraska City, but we know theso to be
all right, for their advertisements appear

are represented there.
