WALSH, Sec Funeral of Hope- tfn following beautiful lines were written, by the late Richard Lilies, of Danville, Va., a gentleman of genius, a fine scholar and a lawyer of distinction. The lines speak of the sad experience and fate of the author. I have been to the funeral of all my hopes, And entombed them one by one: , Not a word was said, | - Not a, tear was shed, - When the mournful task was done. 8k>wly and sadly I turned me round, ' Jliid sought my silent room; fix And there alone, - By the cold hearth-stone, °v I wooed the midnight gloom.' And as the night, with deeppiog fifoadej Lowered above my brow, y v I wept o'er days, •1 •* When manhood's rays •far than now. The dying embers on the heartlL « Gave out their flickering lights y ' As if to say, r*"" • ; ^ , This is the way r !fiiy life shall close in night. I wept aloud, in Aguish sore, • O'er the blight of prospects fair: While demons laughed, And eager quaffed tears, like nectarj rare. Through hell's red hall an echo rang, ii jp echo loved and long, ' As in the bowl I plunged my soul, In the night of madness strong. Ami there, within that sparkling glass, lylitnew the canse to lie; If y This all men own, From zone to zone, Yet millions drink and die. for th« Owl and brand. Scientific Americas Agency for K?
