My NOrmandTe !!
Translated from the French.
BY JOHN F. QUINN,
For the Journal.

BY JOHN r. QUINN
When hope dispels the weary trance
In which old Winter coldly dreams,
And DER the plains of beauteeus France
The glorious sun more brightly beams
When joyful Spring, with mlrth and giee'
Returns to cheer the dropping Earth,
I'll go and see my Normandie,
The fow'ry Eden of my birth !!
J've seen the sky of Italie,
And Venice, with her gondoliers-
Eve scaled Helvetia's Alpine heights,
Where dwell her hardy lnountaineers
But, never yet has smiled for me,
Mid all the fairy scenes of Earth,
A spot more dear than Normandie,
The blest Elysium of my birth!
There comes time in eV'ry life,
When eV'ry hopeful dream must cease,
When, wearied with q world of strife,
The longing soul will sigh for peace;
But, when my harp, grown cold to me-
No longer sings of love on Earth,
I'll 60 and see my Normandie,
The peerless land that gave me birth

o. Few of our readers, We presume, will object TO
seeing the old favorite, My Normandy in new

Know Nothing com nittee, if we may believe Mr.. At
lee, the late Secretary of the Monument Association

The funds were received by no one in particular,
the rule established by the Board was that contrbu-
tons should be sent to the Treasurer, and that the
Secretary should be informed thereof by another
letter, written 10 that officer by the contributor and
this was the only check upon the Treasurer's ac-
counts. The correspondence was wrapped up in
bundles and slowed away in pigeon holes, damp
and thick with dust. The blank books shut up in
cupboards, were green and Shiny with milldew. The
Monument was in similar condition the mortar
crnmbling from between the foundation stones, and
the internal structure of the base exposed TO the del
eterlous intrusion of wind and rain. The memoir
al blocks were piled one upon the other in two shan
nes, which afforded p election to the weather and

The treasury was lying in a collapsed state, depend
