it was tho land of phantasy, where It Isalways Mny,

Tho Icing, long twilight lingered, and thegolden air was sweet;.

In swelling hill and rolling moor the paledream country lay,

With a winding road «cross the,downsto tempt our wandering feet.

We gathered blossoms nil the way;strange, magic blooms grow there,

The shining flower of happiness, andhoneyed buds of hi1se;

You twined wild garlands through yourcurls, nnd on your bosom fair

You liore tbe red, red rose of lovo, withpetals like a kiss.

Scarce nny murmur broke the hush InIhm still land oí dreams,

Perhaps a whisper of the wind, or noteof nested bird,

And far away the bubbling breath 6fdistant gushing si roams,

But not the sound of human voice, or

any spoken word.

There was no need of spoken word, as

hand In hand we wont,For cncli heart beat the measure full of

perfect harmony;Our oyes on ono another looked with

silont, deep content,AVe did not question what had been,

nor what was yet to be.

A charmed spoil the spirit hold throughthose enchanted hours,

Tho dim post faded out like smoke,and time was swept away;

W*o sought no boon of future Joy, eter¬nity was ours.

This was the land of phantasy, whoreit is always May.

.Phoebe Lyde, in the May LIpplncotLPictures Received.

At the Crenshaw building. No. 11 WestMain Street, where the spring exhibitof the Richmond Art Club Is to be, every¬thing was animation and interest yes¬terday. Pictures wore being unpacked,accredited, and put in place on tho wallsof Ilio different rooms, all of which, huvebeen covered with fresh paper and so

improved ns to make a better backgroundfor pictures than ever before.Admiral Webster, Mrs. M. C. Patter¬

son, Miss Bessie Seiden, Miss HarriotteTaliaferro, Miss Nora (Hlouston, MissHammond and Mr. Walker were amongthe Art Club ofllclnls who wore most ac¬

tive In reducing matters to ordor, and Inoffering suggestions as to tho placingof pictures with regard to the best pos¬sible light obtainable.In' tho long parlor to the right of en¬

trance, nnd fronting the visitor who en¬

tered, was a remarkably fino piece ofportrait work by Robert Henri, of NewYork. The subject of the painter's art,Miss Perkins, Is herself nn artist, butthe painting in detail is only unusualthrough the skill ot the artist a skill¦which at once attracts and compels at¬tention.Close to this picture is one by Mr. Wiles,

of New York, that Is· very beautiful. Thecanvas Is large, the ligures on it appear¬ing utmost ut Ufo Bize. The face of thegirl and the face and form of anotherstand out clearly against a dusky back¬ground of richly toned shades, meltingsoftly the ono into the other. Betweentho two girlS» is a lamp and a vase ofred roses. "The girl with tho'face" isbending forward and her glance Is down¬ward, to where tho mellow radiance ofthe lamp falls upon the slender graceand rounded, curves of the other, bring¬ing; out the rich sheen of the. satin gown,the glistening gold of hair and the roso

leaf bloom of youth In Irradiating thocharming face. The painting is a studybeforo which one can stand for a longwhile with pleasure and profit.A "Tawny Sunset" and "An Intervale"

doubly reveal tho touch of Charles War¬ren Eaton, ns the wonderful coloriait ¿andinterpreter of naturo that he Is. He'1msseveral other studies, all equally char¬acteristic. Ono called "Early Spring"might have been done this May time,anywhere around and about Richmond,so perfectly docs It hold tho freshnessand beauty of the springtime now en¬

vironing ono on every hand."Waiting," by Gustave Henry Mosler,

Is the picture of a young woman, framedIn a cottage doorway, against which shois loaning, in the ensy, rpstful pose thatmakes one exclaim In looking at her:"Ah, I have see^ ?. woman stand andlook Just that ..way.;"- Tho homely envi¬ronment and peneefulness of the scene,even to the nestling of two pigeons on

the window sill, produces In the mind ofthe beholder nn Impression of harmonynnd rustic happiness that Is very pleas¬ing.Among the painters whoso works are

familiar to people here, and who nro

already contributors to the exhibit ofthis year, Is Robert Child, formerly ofRichmond, who is fast winning reputa¬tion as im artist nf far moro than ordi¬nary talent. Among h group from hisstudio, two catalogued as "Old [FieldPines" and "The Valley," come speciallyinto mind with a pleasurable remem¬brance. Another Virginia artist who Isespecially happy In his Venetian scenes,Mr. Lucien Powell,, has u painting, "Ontho Grand Canal," which Is a linn expo¬nent of his manner and style In work¬manship. Mr. Powell is a brother ofMrs. W. D, Thomas, and has a numberof Richmond relatives. Mr. Child Is a

son of the late Jesse Child, of this city,It gives great pleasure to admirers of

always. Other things may be moreattractive as far m¡ appearance*go, but it b» the contents and notthe exterior of the package thatdoes good.

Let Us Pass Over the River and RestBy MARGARET J. PRESTON.

General "E'-inownll" Jackson, tho great Confederate commander, died May 10. 1863,having been mortally wounded at tho battle of Choncelloravlllo on May 2. HI» lastwords aro said to have been: "Let us pane over the river and rest under the shnduof the trees." General Jackson was born January 21, 182Í.

Mrs. Margaret Junkln Preston, bom In Philadelphia in 1826, was the wife of Pro¬fessor T. L. Preston, ot tho Virginia Military Institute, and sister-in-law of GeneralThonms Jonathan ("Stonewall") Jackson, whose first wife was Elinor Junkln,

Other »«loctlons from tho author, hor portrait, autograph and biographical sketch,liavo already been printed In this series.

wHAT are the thoughts that are stirring his breast?What is the mystical vision he sees?"Let us pass over the river and restUnder the shade of tho trees.''

Has he grown sick of his toils and his tasks?.Sighs tho worn spirit for respite or ease?

Is it a moment's cool halt that ho asksUnder the shade of the trees?

Is it the gurgle of the waters, whose flowOfttimes has come to him borne on the breeze,

Memory listens to, lapsing so low,Under the shade of the trees?

Nay.though the rasp of the flesh was so sore,Faith, that had yearnings far keener than these,

Saw the soft sheen of tho Thitherward Shore,Under the shade of the trees; ·'¦;¦

Caught the high psalms of ecstatic deright, ·

Heard the harps harping, like soundings of seas,Watched earth's assoiled ones walking in whiteUnder the shade of the trees-

Oh, was it strarige'he should pine for release, i

Touched to the soul with such transports as these,.He who so needed the balsam of peace,Under the shade of the trees?

Yea, it was noblest for him.it was best(Questioning naught of our Father's decrees)

There to pass over the river and restUnder the shado of the trees!
