Farewell to thee, departed enc,

In the light Of many a brilliant sun,

Thou'r Numbered with a throng
Mighty and movoless now!
But the trace Of thy step will finger long
On many n human brow.
In the deep and silent heart
Thy memory will stay,
There are clouds that In darkness hover DER,
Whose storms have past away.
Thou hast had lighted rays
But who would live thee o'er!
In the clear blue skies Of thy sunniest days,
To meet thy sorrows more!
Go! tell the VANISHED yeaus
The changes thou hast met,
OF the ceaseless flow Of human tears,
Since their waning sunbeams set;
The many flowers laid low
OF human hope and pride,
or the blossoms borne from . world OF woe,
On thy ever-changing tide.
Thy ling ring sun is bright,
And thy last look n smile,

Smiles for her rising morn

On her fresh and radiant wing,
And her smiles may render The pathway bright,
Whose flowers wore whitening.

The close Of one year. and the commence

pause and take a look backward 10 the moth
ingness from which We sprung. or forward 10
that 10 which va must return. When all is
on the wane, the lesson Of our mortality
should come homo to US with q double convic-
ton, and as We cast aside the fashion Of last
year, remember the hour which gave it birth
when il was now like our own youth, when
It was bright like our own early days, when il
bore tho stamp Of Importance. like the prime
Of manhood--and let it's end remind US o! the
time when We too shall be cast of and remen.

those that havo passed before it down that
mighty tide. which changes not its course. but

The close Of the year not only reminds us
Of the close Of life, but it has a lesson for hu-
man affairs. 1t is now that all should know
their standing among their fellows. 1t is now
business should be adjusted and accounts set
