I have been reading and intensely enjoying
a most

poetically written life of two women,
#

who were poets. It is written by one whose
heart and soul speak in every line; not because she was bound to them by any human
ties, but by a joint birth-right in the divine
Sisterhood of Song, and the bond of a kindred womanly nature. Dearly as we have

Golden treasures to-day, in the hearts of
thousands,are their " wild wood " songs, lull
ot" truth and justice, which strayed away into " out of the way nooks in country newspapers," to be sung by those who knew and
felt their worth.
" Let me make the songs
ot a people nnd I care not who makes their
'aws." I must confess that 1 have felt a
nost loving fondness for these same stray
verses which I have seen from time to time.
That this fondness has become an enthusiasm you will not wonder perhaps, on reading
this beautiful outline of two rare lives. We
need not pause to analyze each separate
verse and stanza, weigh with critical acumen
the " pros and cons " of its possible duration
beyond the period which gave it birth; Let
us rather, leaving to the future its own

for the many faithful pictures of scenes,
dear to all those to whom the landscapes and
rural life of America are dear.
To those who have wandered far away
from the " old home," these lines come as
the notes of some half forgotten melody.

Death of Dr. O. P. Judd.

We had intended a sketch of the life and
character of the deceased, but it lias been
so fully done by the editors of the Oatette
and Advertiser, that we shall avail ourself of the following paragraphs published
in the Advertiser of July 19th. The name
of no one appears more frequently in the

was written by friend or foe, American or
Englishman. It is an easy matter to guide

It liits been suit] by one who Initl ample
mcam of Knowing, that the first year of an
active business life would determine and exhibit the I'liaracter of its entire future.—
Transfer this sentiment to the religious
sphere, and it is e«itially true. The importance of beginning rig/it, in any department
of life, cannot be over-estimated. Such is,
however, the delusion of life, that it is almost
impossible to imprest this upon the mind of
the young.
The youth sees the whole world before
him with all its infinite possibilities. The
fruit of all the trees of the garden hangs in
his sight, and he seems to hear tlie voice,
"of every tree thou mayest eat." His whole
future, indeed, is dim, shadowy and undefined. And it is well it is so. But still it is
hopeful. He forms large plans, cherishes
large desires. There is no place of honor, or
trust, or responsibility, real or imaginary,
that his vaulting ambition hesitates at. His
aspirations, purposes, efforts, reach out in a
thousand different directions. However others
may have failed before him, he believes he
will not fail, there is something in his case
different to all others.
He never has done a good thing, but he
feels he has it in him to do a better; and so
he has, this is a God-implanted principle,
and will carry man to the point of infinite

endurance.
To the young man pleasure, business,
honor, prosperity, domestic joy, social advantages, all seem quite within his easy reach.
With vast longings, and with the direction
of his life still undetermined, his spiritual
industry, however sincere, is liable to be dissipated ; and did this condition of things last
long, his character would remain unformed,
his principles undeveloped, his moral attainments low. But without the rude shocks ot
disappointment to which he is surely doomed, Providence early applies the pruning

process.
He is early confined within some single
walk of industry—has one established home,
sphere of duty, circle of friends, and round
of enjoyments. His place in the social scale,
the modicum of success and honor within
his reach, is determined.
He reaches much sooner than he expected
the length of his chain. And learns, with
much mortification, the depth of his reservoir
orresources. Bounds, over which he cannot
pass, are set lo his earthly life. Yet within
those bounds his desires and active powers
