NEw YEARS HYMN.


All haifl fair morn of New Years day,
Thy glorious sun once more doth shine,
O sacred muse, assist my lay,
To pen this solemn hymn Of mine.
The year that's past has gone and fed
Like thousands gone before,
And left the silence of the dead
To die upon some distant shore.
When look back on by gone years,
My memory holds them still i'll view
How many's been my falling tear,
Like pearly drops Of morning dew.
How many thousand meier will SEQ
This pleasant New Years morning sun.
Who were as well as you or me
When tho last New Years morn began.
How many sfthe old and young
Have bid adieu to friends most dear.
o! who can hear my New Years song,
And never shed one single tear.
Husbands have parted from their wives.
Parents have seen their children die.
Others have acarcely sav'd their lives.
And lived TO hear the orphans cry.
o. who can boast Of strength or fame,
When they reflect on years that's gone,
O! what ere riches or name,
When wo so soon must die alone.
Eternity Of years unrolled,
Thou houndless space ofendless time.
o! solemn thought, my blood runs cold.
Such language is awful, sublime.
What never end! No. never end.
Eternity is still the same.
o! God, I pray thee, be my friend.
And own in heaven my worthless name.
Then when all worlds shall fall to dust.
And New Years sun no more shall rise,
o! may I with the happy just.
Praise God, forever, in the skies.

THE DYING YEAH .

Phs dying yearl The dying yssri
How solemn 10 the sound
o!moaning winds and whitening leaves
Strewn rudely Ger the ground;
In melancholy murmurs through
The leafiess woods ! hear
The tongue of time proclaim to man,
THIS :s the dying year.
The summer birds have left their bow'rs--
The brighter skies have fed,
The green leaves, too, Of spring have gone
The roses all are dead;
All, all that bloomed so beautiful
Hasnow gene to decay,
And thus our hopes and dearest friends
Are doomed to pass away!
Az fades the flower beneath the FROST
Nlpt in it's brightest bloom,
So blushing beauty oft is sent
To an untimely tomb;
Like yonder oak stripped BY the blast
The good man oft appears,
Struggling with dark adversely,
Amid the march Of years.
Oh! where are all the gifted ones,
The giddy and the gay,
Flauntlng in all the pomp Of life
And glory yesterday
Alas! like pale and witherlng leaves,
Swept on by ausumn's blast,
The scythe of time has cut them down
To mingle with the past.
The hearts that beat so high with hope.
Within the gloomy grave
Are pulseless now-the old and young,
The beautiful and brave;
The eyes that Aash'd ambitions 6ro
Are closed 10 deaths cold arms;
The worm, the worm, alas! feeds now
On beauty's blissful charms.
Oh! ye who seek the bubble, Fame
Unmindful of your doom.
60 to yon city Of The dead,
And look into the tomb;
The sleeper there was once a. gay
And restless az thou art;
And what are now the blasts Of fame
To his cold silent heart2

The resolution was read the first snC
second time; when
Mr.. Douglass moved that it be made
the special order of the day for Tuesday
next.
The Speaker put the question on this
motion, and declared that it had passed in
the affirmative.
Mr.. Rockwell here desired to move the
reference of the resolution to the Com
mittee of the Whole on the State Of the
Union.
The Chair said it was TOO late.
Mr.. Rockwell said he had risen, adj
dressed the Chair and made his motion
before the question was put by the Chair.
The Chair said the question had been
decided, and the subject could only be
reached by motion to reconsider. And
then announced that, as matter going to
the organization of the House, he would
receive the resolution which Mr.. Hopkins
desired TO offer the appointment Of Chap
lains.
Mr.. Hopkins resolution was then re-
ceived and read.
Mr.. Schenck here rose and sustained

he had made his motion before the ques-
ton was put on the motion to make the
Texas resolution tho special order foI
Tuesday.
After some conversation between the
Speaker and several members as to the
matter of fact
Mr.. Thomas Smith moved reconside-
ration of the vote on the motion of Mr..
Douglass to make the resolution the spe-
cial order for Tuesday.
The motion TO reconsider was lost.
