The Little Winter Grave,

Our baby lies under the snow, sweet wife,
Our baby lies under the snow,
Dat in the dark with the night,
r-.While the winds so loudly blow.
AS dead saint thou art pale, sweet wife,
And the cross is on thy breast
Oh, the snow no more can chill
That little dove in its nest.
Shall we shut the baby out, sweet wife,
While the chilling winds do blow ?
Oh, the grave is now its bed,
Andits coverlid is snow,
Oh, our merry bird is shared, sweet wife,
That rain of music gave,
And the snow falls ON our hearts,
And our hearts are each grave.
Oh, it was the lamp of our life, sweet wife,
Blown not in night of gloom;
A leaf from our nower OF love,
Nipped in its fresh bloom.
But the lamp will shine above, sweet wife,
And the leaf again shall grow,
Where there are no bitter winds,
And no dreary, dreary snow.

PUMPKIN PIES.

The near approach of autumn months,
When blooming nature dies,
Brings near unto our longing lips,
The time for pumpkin pies.
The time to us, of all most dear,
When warm before our eyes,
The matron brings with willing hands,
The wished for pumpkin pies.
Remembered thou, my brother John,
The happy hours gone by,
When you and | enjoyed so well
Our mothers pumpkin pie.
Pm dwelling now meath other suns;
And bright are other skies,
Yet memory oft brings back again,
The thought of pumpkin pies.
And though my hair is now grown gray,
And death unto ME nigh,
relish now as long ago,
A piece ofpumpkin pie.

noon, between and o'clock, Mr.. Ere.
derrick Bausman, aged about So years,
committed suicide at the residence Of his
sister, Miss Catherine Bausman, in East
King street, Lancaster, Pa.
Mr.. Bausman, otherwise, and familiar
ly known as the Squire, at about Q o.
clock was at Brintnall's Hotel, in Fast
King street, where he was partially in
toxicated; being naturally quiet and I'M
obtrusive he remained at that place few
minutes. after which he went home
When he had arrived there, he became
somewhat querulous and incensed at
something which occurred which had dis
turbed him. He then went up stairs
without expressing any intention Of COM
hitting suicide, and left the impression
that he was going to lay down in order
to sleep, and did not wish to be dis
turbed until supper time; he must then
have proceeded to the garnet directly,
where he obtained a rope, with which he
hung himself.
