II is claimed that the original tune Of the
good old song Of " Yankee Doodle" was bor-
rowed from the Rogue's March," and was
played 10 derisiOh BY the British. during the
Revolutionary war, and aitprwar adopted BY
the Yankees but It Is certain that the New
England ycomanry had nationAlized the tame
long before the adycn, Of Gen. Gage In Boston!
An old version Of the recOrd has recently come
to light, which shows this beyond question. A
portion Of these quaint stanzas We quote below,
as follows:
Now cross over, Jonathan,
Figure In, Jemima;
Mother, take the stools away,
Twill make the room look wider. =.
CHoRus-Yankee Doodle, Yankee Doodle,
Yankee Doodle Dandy.
Sister Sue Is very sick,
We don't know what ails her;
She yesterday ate forty eggs.
And now her stomach fails her.

TI,ASslliON TIME.

Leasladen glide the yellow streams,
With gouts OF blood the ribbed oak teens;
The season brcathes like one in dreams.
Like ooe that sleeps disturbed, and sees,
Through crossed and knotted forest trees,
Vague faces white with mysteries.
The mossy holes have gathered ewes
That gloat with meanings wondrous wise.
And prophesies Of changing skies;
And as the black leaf strikes the swarth,
A wind rolls down the quiet earth,
Through oil its measures, south and north;
Bows up the roof, and whirls the vane,
knocks ut the tOpmOst attice.pane,
And then dies OF in slanting rain.
The season in its frances hears
Vast voices in the atmospheres,
Low wailings by the brooks and meres.
And, when the Day and Night make ieud,
Hears, in dull, unconscious mood,
Brown Autumn pacing in the wood.
All, well / know bis harvest head,
II sowed the burrows poppy-rcd,
And burnt the orchards in they bled;
Till the hlLiraited apple groancd,
The violet plum was fully stoned,
And, from the wall, the peach.bough moaned.
lie comes across the fOggy flats,
Mid creakings Of the cider vats,
Between the twilight and the bats.
The latest bird that Summer leaves
Flies upward from the beaten sheaves,
And sings its terrors in the caves.
For when the moon leans flushed and round,
Half level with the rcaping ground,
In thin scarf Of vapor wound;
And slantward all the hedges lie
Along the stubbles crisp and dry,
Like brown paths dwindling to the sky.
The season Of Transitions wakes,
The berry backens in the brakes,
The long reed crackles in the lakes;
A blast twirls upward from the shore,
And smi,es the signing sycamore,
Cleaying the chesnut to the core.
The chimncys quake and roar alright;
And eastward, lightnings thin and white
Peal down the drizzling front Of night.
Then one who harkens BY the blind
May hear, III echoes III defined.
The minister bells swung in the wind:
Whilst oil the forests. east and west,
Filled with the presence Of the guest,
Clutch at the stars in dark unrest.
The season dreams. All, yet awhile,
The beech may wear fretted smile,
Nor see the snow.plaguc blot the tile;
Or, in the privetis scarlet blaze,
The robin chirp 10 gusty lays
Traditions Of the summer days.
The changes hasten, swift and soon;
From yohdcr elm, his latest boon,
The black rOok clamors ut the moon.
And by the iaggots on the hearth,
The cricket, with no voice OF mirth,
Ticks the transitions Of the earth.

he shingled over his spare hatchet; and
cutting small aperture in the builing

in one of oblivious freaks, nailed his
left arm so ffml between two boards of a
fence he was putting up. that he had to
call for help to get extacted from his self
imprisonment. He once put button on
the gate instead of the post. But the
rarest freak of all was when he ran
through the streets with his han DIS abou;
three feet asunder, held before him, beg
ging three passers by not to disturb him,
AS he had got the measure of = doorway
