Ud account of the lQClemecey of the weather only a small coogreji- tion were out to hear his sermon on Monday morningl From dispatches from various parts of the country it seems that the snipw storm last Sunday night was one of the most general as well as most severe which ever visited us at this season, extending from the extreme north-fas far south as Greensboro, N. ad varying in depth from three, to fen inches.

KE3IEMBEBED. DEDICATED TO IX. SB. OF KDDTVILLK, I stand on memory's mystic shore, Time's plaintive tide is humming sweet, As from the dreamy past it comes And breaks and ripples at ray feel. The past, the past, the dear, dead past, It glided from as, ah too fust.

this gowen uae inai marmora nere Ta ainotn a rr A bo i anrl litnr Is singing to me sad and low. Of hours joy-fraught, Of moments prized As at my feet they wave and flow. The village graves the sunset bright The laughing riverthe warning light. We wandered there at evening's hour. And stood above the moldering dead We spoke of the lichen's tender watch, When life and joyance all had tied.

The lichen, firm, sweet, clinging friend, Clinging still to the bitterest end. To- night I stand on memory's shore, Gazing eager-eyed across the main The foam-fringed tide with mellow tone Is chanting soft and low your name. Chanting slowly in accents tender and long 'Turning darkness into glory, and sorrow Into song." Here on memory's sunlit shore I will rear a palace fair. So that ever and ever here by the tide I can hear its low, sad air, Murmuring and chanting oi days how flown, i Leaving thehearfrall empty and lone A palace fair on memory's waters Is lifted royally high, AndthesongfromXbe sea steals lo vi gly in As the swallows land-ward fly. Steals lovingly In with a song from the past, Chanting ever and ever this song to the last, Remembered, Remembered.

Owes Moose's. a Warfield, author of "The Household of Bouverie," "Miriam's Memoirs "Sea and Shore," "Hester Howard's Temptation," and "A Double Wed ding; or, How She Was Won," is pub lished this day by T. B. Petterson Brothers, Philadelphia. Mrs.

War-field's new novel, "Monf'ort Hall," has freshness, and is entitled to respectful comment Her fiction calls for study. Her perception is deep and artis tic, as respects both the dramatic side of life and the beautiful. It is not strictly nature that forms the basis of her descriptions. She finds Eome thing deeper and more mystic than na ture in the sense in which the term is usually used by crities3n the answer of the soul to life in the strange, weird, and lonesome music of the still small voices with which human nature replies to the questions that sorely vex her. She has the capacity which enables her to trace phenomena in a story without arguing about them, and to exhibit the dramatic side of them with out stopping to explain the reasons for it.

In a word, her hand is as sure as that of a master, and if there were more such novels as this simple Bemi-bjographica! story of Monfort Hall, it would not be necessary so often to pat the question, "Is the art of fiction extinct for it is a work of extraordinary merit, and the story is charmingly told by the heroine. It is admirable and original in plot, varied in incident, and intensely absorbing in interest; besides, throughout the volume, there is an'exquisite combination of sensibility, pride, and loveliness, which will hold the work in high estimation. We recommend it to all our friends as most thoughtfully written novel. It is complete in one large duodecimo volume, bound in morocco cloth, gilt back and side, and is sold by all booksellers at 1.75 a copy. All of Mrs.

Warfield's works six in are put up in a neat box, price $10.50 a set, or 1.75 each, bound in morocco cloth, with a very handsome full gilt back.
