In Memoriam. - Caleb Hazen Talcott,

Son of C. TALCOTT, Esq., died at Hartford, October 26th, 1860, aged 2 years and 6 months.     There came a merry voice         Forth from those lips of rose,     As tireless through its fringing flowers         The tuneful brooklet flows,     And with the nurslings feet         Engaged in busy play     It made the parents' pleasant home         A joyance all the day.     There breath'd a languid tone         Forth from those pallid lips,     As when some planet of the night         Sinks in its dread eclipse.     "Sing to me, sing," it cried,         While the red fever reign'd,     "Oh sing of Jesus,"[1] it implored         While struggling life remained.     Then rose a mournful sound,         The solemn funeral knell,     And silent anguish settled where         The nursery's idol fell.     But he who so desired         His Saviour's name to hear     Doth in His glorious presence smile,         Above this cloud-wrapp'd sphere.
