HOME AND FRIENDS.

Oh! there s power to make each hour,
Ay sweet as Heaven designed it;
Nor need we roam to bring it home,
Though few there be that find it.
We seek too high for things close by,
And lose what nature found us;
For life hath here no charm so dear
AS home and friends around us.
We oft destroy the present joy
For future hopes-aud praise them;
Whilst flowers as sweet bloom at our feet
II VIC ID but stoop to raise them;
For things afar still sweetest are
When youths bright spell hath bound us;
But soon we re taught that earth hath nought
Like home and friends around us.
The friends that speed in time of need,
When hopes fast reed is shaken,
Will show us still, that come what will,
We are not quite forsaken.
Though all were night, IL but the light
From friendships altar crowned us,
II would prove the bliss of earth was this,
Our home and friends around US

The old lady looked at him with surprise,
his conduct was so unusual, and for moment
she hesiiated. He continued in more impas-
stoned strain
''Do not, do not keep me waiting,
Do not, pray, be hesitating,

So pour out as quick as winking."
She gave him The tea with sigh as she
saw the excitement in his face. He stirred it
In silence, and in his abstraction took three
spoonfus of sugar. AT last he sang again:
liable cloths, and cups and saucers,
Good white bread and active jaws, sirs;
Tea-gunpowder and souchong-
Sweet enough, but not too strong;
Bad for health TO eat hot biscuit,
