TO-MORROW. Did we but know what lies beyond This varied, shadowy path we tread, How often would our souls despond, Our e yes the tears of sorrow shed ? But God, who knows what’s best to do, Who sees us from his starry throne, Has wisely hidden from our view That which had best remain alone, We. walk to-day in conscious pride, And hang the flag of hope on h igh; But a h ! to-morrow by our side Some friend may lay him down and d i e ; Some early flower that won our praise, Some altar where we laid our trust: Such flower, ere dies the evening rays. May trampled he, and laid in dust. Youth dreams of miiny glorious things. As on he hies in pleasure’s track; Each day some new-born promise brings, He turns no eye of sorrow back; The flowery fields are a ll before. His eyes on some bright star are s e t; Life is to him a sunny shore, He’ll learn it has its shadows y et. To-morrow !

IS M O N T H S IN T H E S E E VIC E , A good story is told o f a young surgeon who was lately quartered at Harpers Ferry Hospital, After a few days, en- ering upon duty at that point h e noticed iroundround the 1 Irishmanlan lounging a t difl'er* eut rooms with nothing to do and in ap-* parent good health. The Surgeon not wishing any one in the Hospital whose health did not require their being there put on, a sober and dignified look and addressed the Son of the Old Sod in the following m anner:— Are you in the U. S. Service, P a t 1 H o w long have you been in the em* ploy o f U ncle Sam ? Eighteen months, sir. H o w long have you been in the Hos Sixteen months, sir. W hat the d ------- 1 w ere you doing the other two months 1 Looking for an Hospital, sir i said The enraged Surgeon ordered P a t to the front amid the shouts and laughter o f all who were within hearing of their conversation.
