LINES.
BY NELLY.


Away, far away DER the deep dark sea-
Sadly my thoughts will roam
Where dearly bclov'd ones are waiting for me-
AnXously waiting Inc home.
Four long years have passed away
Since left those loved ones dear,
And though this golden land is fair
Yet, o how miss them here
miss them at morn, when Aurora fair
Rolls back the curtain of night,
And miss them az poon when all nature basks
In the rays Of the warm sunlight.
II iss them too nt dewy eve
When the busy day has passed;
And oft think, as | gaze on the stars,
How strange my lot is cast
So fur from the home and scenes Of my youth
Not one of my kindred are near;
No mothers smile, no sisters voice,
No brother to greet me here.
All, no! they all are far away
Broad oceans roll between;
And that loved home and those dear ones
Only in dreams are seen.

a workman of limited means; bnt on The applI-

manner prompted him not only TO show all that
he had, but TO enter into a detailed explanation
of the working of his establishment, and of the
very superior manner in which he could conduct
his factory, if additional facilities of can't Il
were afforded him. The gentlemen left him, not
only favOrably impressed towards him, but with
the feeling that he thoroughly understood his
business
Within year he was surprised with an in
