[Page 1] 6/9/84 Made light in rebel slumbers GOVERNOR WARFIELD ON BENJAMIN HALLOWELL.

It is a source of extreen gratification to many people in Maryland and Virginiato the note deserved tribute which Governor Warfield incidentally paid to Benjamin Hallowell in his excellent and encuraging adress delivered before the graduates of the art schools of the Maryland Institute Tuesday night.

The connection in which the Governor aludesto Mr.Hallowell was the part he took with Alexander Dallas Bache in the first convention of friends of public education in this country, which was held in Washington city in 1840.

The Governor said of Benjamin Hallowell he was "that man of high thinking and plain living, who had done so much for the cause of education throughout the country, and especially in the State of Maryland."

Mr.Hallowell did very much to promotepublic education in this State, but he established his fame as an educator in Alexandria, Va.,

long before he removedto Maryland and settled down to pass the remaining years of his long and useful life in Montgomery county.

He belong to a family of distinguished educators.

There was a trio, Benjamin, Caleb and James, head masters of three of the most important schools, two of them for training of young men and one for young men, all established in Alexandria, and all exercising a great [Text ends here]

AFTER DEATH IN ARABIA

He who died at Azan sends this to comfort all his friends

Faithful friends!

It lies, I know, Pale and white and cold as snow; And ye say "Abdallah's dead!" Weeping at the feet and head. I can see your falling tears, I can hear your sighs and prayers; Yet I sinile, and whisper this"I am not the thing you kiss: Cease you tears, and let it lie; It was mine, it is not "I." Sweet friends! What the women lavo, For its last bed of the grave, Is but a but which I am quitting, Is a garment no more fitting, Is a cage, from which at last, Like a hawk, my soul hath passed, Love the inmate, not the roomThe wearer, not the grab--plume Of the falcon, not the bars Which kept him from the splended stars!

Loving friends!

Be wise, and dry Straightway every weeping eye: What ye lift upon the bler Is not worth a wistful tear, "Tis an empty sea-shell-one Out of which the pearl has gone; the shell is broken-it lies there; The pearl, the all, the soul, is here. Tis an earthen jar whose lid Allah sealed, the while its hid That treasure of his treasury Amind loved him; let it lie! Let the shard be earth's once more, Since the gold shines in His store!

Allah glorious!

Allah good!

Now thy world is understood: Now the long, long wonder ends!

Yet ye weep, my-erring friends, While the man whom ye call dead, In unspoken bliss, instead, Lives and loves you; lost, 'tis true, By such a light shines for you; But in the light ye can not see Or unfufilled felicityIn enlarging paradise Lives a life that never dies.

Farewell, friends!

Yet not farewell; Where I am, ye too shall dwell. I am gone before your face, A moment's time a little space; When ye come where I have stepped, Ye will wonder why ye wept; Ye will know, by wise love taught, That here is all and there is naught.

Weep awhile. if ye are fainSunshine still must follow rain; Only not a death-for a death, Now I know, is that first breath Which our souls draw when we enter Life, which is all life center.

Be ye certain all seems love, Viewed from Allah's throne above; Be ye stout of heart and come Braverly onward to your home! La Allah illa Allah yea!

Thou Love diviue!

Thou Love alway!

He that died at Azan gave this to those who make his grace. [Text ends here]

"To him that overcometh."

Great truths are greatly bought.

Not found by chance, Nor wafted ou the breath of summer dream, But grasped in the great struggle of the soul, Hard buffering with adveise wind and stream; Won in the day of conflict, fear and grief, When in the strong hand of God, put forth in might, Plough up the subsoil of the stagnant heart, And brings the imprisoned truth-seed to the light.
