Song.

A maid reclined beside stream
At fall of summer day;
And, half awake and half a-dream,
She watched the ripples' play;
She marked the waters fall and heave,
The deepening shadows throng,
And heard, as darkened down the eve,
That rivers babbling song.
And thus it sung. with tinkling tongue,
That rippling. shadowy river
youths brightest day will fade away
Forever and foreverp
The twilight past, the moon at last
Rose broadly DER the night;
Each ripple CLEANS beneath her beams
'As wrought in silver bright.
The heaving waters glide along,
But, mingling with their voice.
The nightingale now pours his song.
And makes the shade rejoice.
And thus he sung with tuneful tongue,
That bird beside the river
"When youth is gone. true love shines on
Forever and forever"

Why don't you take the paper' brown
I'm sure it is a shame
That we can't get the news from town
Before it's old aud tame !
There's Deacon Jones, across the way,
who gets one every week.
And he can beat you all, they say,
When called upon to speak.
The reason. sir, is plain, you know,
For, when he reads it through,
His words like milk and honey how,
And all he tells is new;
So he is taken by the hand
For what he can impart.
While old and young around him stand.
And say, the Deacon's smart.
., is it not a shame, l say.
To hug your purse so tight,
When mere bit of yellow clay
Would set the matter rights
What good is gold, now can you tell.
To any Of our kind,
Unless it keeps the body well,
And benefits the mind.
Who don't you take the paper, Browns
I'm sure it is a shame
That we can't get the news from town
Before it's old and tame
Now let US quit at once this way.
And take a worthy start,
And ere a year our friends will say.
The Browns are getting smart
