I'M GROWING OLD.

BY q. SANE.
My days pass pleasantly away;
My nights nre Llcst with sweetest sleep
feel no symptoms Of decay
l have no cause to mourn nor weep;
Diy foes are impotent and shy,
My friends are neither false nor cold
And yet, Of late often sigh
I'm growing old.
My growing talk of olden times;
My growing thirst for early news;
My growing apathy to rhymes;
My growing love of easy shoes;
My growing hate of crowds and noise;
My growing fear of taking cold,
All whisper in the plainsst voice
Pm growing old.
I'm growing fonder Of my staff;
I'm growing DINNER in the eyes;
I'm growing fainter in my laugh
I'm growing deeper in my sighs;
I'm growing careless of my dress;
I'm growing frugal of my gold
I'm growing wise; I'm growing-yes-
I'm growing old.
gee it in my changing taste:
see it IN my changing hair;
see it in my growing waist;
sec it in my growing heir;
A thousand signs proclaim the truth,
AS plain as truth was ever told,
That even in my vaunted youth,
I'm growing old.
Ah, mel my very laurelss breathe,
The tale in my reluctant ears,
And every boon the hours be1ueath,
But makes me debtor to the wears.
Fen fattery's honeyed words declare
The secret she would fain withhold,
And tell Inc in "Ilow young you are!"
I'm growing old.
Thanks for the years! whose rapid flight
My sombre muse too sadly sings;
Thanks for the CLEANS of golden light
That tint the darkness Of their wings;
The light that beams from out the sky,
Those heavenly mansions to unfold,
Where all are blest, and none may sigh,
I'm growing old T.

BOW SHE m1ssEp IT.

A remarkable instance Of the diversion
into philanthropic channels Of an immense
fortune is givepsin a scrap of secret history
respecting Thcs. Grey, the founder Of the
hospital at Southwark, Eng, bearing his
name. We are told that Grey had formed
matrimonial engagement with his servant
girl, and just previous to the wedding day
bad ordered the pavement before his door
to BE- mended, marking particular stone
as the furthest limit Of the proposed repairs.
His financee, noticing portion Of the paye-
ment left unrepaired, called the attentioh
of the workmen to it. and was told that
Mr.. Grey had forbidden them to extend
their operations go far. The girl, presu-
ming upon her supposed power over her
lover, ordered the workmen TO continue
their lsbors, and added, tell him 1 bade
you, and besWill not Get angTg& But Sue
had reckonels s.witbout her host for Grey,
on perceiving that change had been made
in his positive orders, involving an addition
al outlay of a few sblllings. renounced his
intention Of marrying the girl, and at the
age of seventy-six years formed the design
of building the hospital referred to: In
erecting the structure he expended nearly
one hundred thousand dollars, and to en-
dow it he left the further and munifceht
sum of eleven hundred thousand dollars.
An idea ofhis wealth tuay be obtaihe6 from
1.-THE fact that, besides making many of his
relatives happy with annupities, and giving
large sums to various charities, during his
llfs, he bequeathed nearly half million Of
dollars to'be divided among all who could
prove themselves in any degree related to
hun. HistorySis is mute respecting the man
nefin which the almost bride bore her dis
appointment There is no evidence, how
ever, of her having played the ,heroine's .
part in an Effie Carstang melotdrama, nor
are we told whether the, indignant old gent
left her the laastlegacy as 4, balm for Eer
wounded pride. All we know Is, that the
assumption Of mistress-ship %as few. hours
hours too soon, securedaSt England one Of
her finest hospitals, and placed the name o.
