=" WASHING-DAY."

ITO that day nor peace belongs nor comfort
The very cat from the wet kitchen scared,
Visits the parlor, an unwonted guest.
And should the skies pour down ad 'eu to all
Remains of quiet; then expect to hear
Of sad disasters, dirt and gravel stains
Hard to efface--and loaded lines at once
Snapped short, or linen horse by dog thrown
down,
And all the petty miseries of life.
Saints have been calm upon the rack.
And Gautimozin smiled on burning Goals;
But never yet did housewife notable
Greet with smile a rainy washng-dav.
Bat grant the welkn fair, require not thou
Who callest thysef perchance the master
there,
Or steady swept, or nicely busted coat,
Or usual tendance ask not indscreet
Thy stockings mended, tho the yawning rents
Cape wide as Erebus; nor hope to find
Some snug recess impervious; should st thou
try
The custom'd garden-walks, thine eye shall
rue
The budding fragrance of thy tender shrubs,
Myrtle or rose-all crushed beneath the weight
Of coarse checked apron, with impatient haste
Twiched off, when showers impend, or cross
ing lines
Shall mar thy musings, as the wet cold sheet
Flaps in thy face abrupt" Mrs BosBAULD.
