For the Burlington Hawk-Eye.
A PARODY.
ruNE-THE OLD ARM OF

ruNE-THE OLD ARM CHAIR.
love her, love her, and who shall dare
To chide me for loving that old gray mare3
pve cherished her long as noble prize,
And memory yields her host of sighs;
For, bound by thousand bands to my heart,
Was that gentle beast, that noise could START
Would you know the spell? Ihave oft safe there,
On the easy back Of that old gray mare.
Oh! say it is folly, and deem me weak,
And my love for her but a childish freak
Yet, Oft, as Pve rode, when all nature smiled
On that feet old steed, and her wandering child,
/ have thought how rapid my years had sped,
And how soon would both rider and steed be dead;
But, no,r, have felt that 'tis hard to bear
This untimely loss of my old gray mare.
No more shall the sound Of the hunters horn
Awaken her spirit at mornings dawn
No more shall she speed o'er the prairie lone,
To her welcome home, when the sun is gone
And no more shall she press to her masters side,
With her earnest love, and her joyful pride
Why, why could not Death yet longer spare,
The light Of my heart, that old gray mare?

should be said thatthey were inadvertently placed

their apparently unreasonable appearance. The

WIN TER.
by w. S. g.
'Tis win,eri from his northern hills
Old Boreas comes in icy car,
We hear the distant, rattling jar
OF the frosty wheels ;-and the sparkling rills
Are sheathed in silver; nor dstils
The gentle dew but the snow-lakes fall
The dead earth's winding shect-its pail.
'Tis winter! From his hollow caves
Old Eolus comes o'er hill and dale,
With mournful dirge and bitter wall
For the dead around by their silent graves
Like maniac howls-like a madman raves,
While the funeral rites of the dead old year
Are sadly sung at the ice crowned bier.
IT'S winter! On his ice-wrought throne
The Storm-king reigns in gorgeous state,
And sways his sceptre stern as fate,
Ger the subjects Of a milder zone
Than those he claims by right his own;
For his home is away mid hills Of snow
Where the Northern Lights in beauty glow.
J lis winter Every mountain height
Is capped with pure aad stainless snow
Whilst sparkling streamlets cease to flow,
And with a veil Of silver light,
The earth is robed in spot'ess white; fshroud
Yet the earth is q corpse-its heayen-wrousht
Is woven Of snow flakes, and mists of the clous.

States for Roofing.

Planters are not generally aware of the economy
and advantage Of slate roofs for dwellings,, sugar

more than double that for even ordinary shingles,

rishable. The cost of putting on is no greater
The safety from fire and from lightning is so well
understood that the cost Of insnfing slate covered
buildings is about one half With i well laid Stale
roof leakage is impossible. Taken altogether. the
additional expense upon a good building invariably
proves 10 be a judicious economy.
