The Old Canoe.

Where the rocks are gray and the shore is steep,
And the waters below look dark and deep,
Where the rugged pine in its lonely PRIDE
Leans gloomily over the murky tide;
Where the reeds and rushes are long and rank,
And the weeds grow thick on the winding bank;
Where the shadow is heavy the whole day throu'
Lies at its moorings the old canoe.
The useless paddles are idly dropped,
Like sea-birds wings that the storm has Topped
And crossed on the railing, one o er one,
Like the folded hands when the work is donej
While busily back and forth between,
The spider stretches his silyery screen,
And the solemn owl, with his dull "too hoo, F"
Settles down on the side of the old canoe,
The stern half sunk in the Shiny wave,
Roots slowly away in its living grave,
And the green moss creeps oer its dull decay,
Hiding its mouldering dust away,
Like the hand that plants o er the tomb flower
Or the ivy that mantles falling tower
While many blossom Of loveliest hue
Springs up Ter the stern of the old canoe.
The currentless waters are deep and still
But the light wind plays on the boat at will,
And lazily in and out again
1t floats the length of the rusty chain;
Like the weary march of she Hands of time,
That meet and part at the noontide chime,
And the shore is kissed at each turning anew
BY the dripping bow Of the old canoe
o. many time with a careless hand,
have pushed it away from the pebbly strand;
And padded it down where the stream runs
quick,
Where the whirls are wild and the eddies are
thick,
And laughed as 1 leaned DER the rocking side,
And looked below in the broken tide,
To see that the faces and boats were two
That were mirrored back from the old canoe
But now as I lean Ger the crumblng side,
And look below on the sluggish tide,
The face that | see there is graver grown,
And the laugh that hear has a soberer tone,
And the hands that lent to the light skff wings
Have grown familiar with sterper things.
But love to think of the hours that few
As rocked where the whirls their light spray
threw,
Ere the blossoms waved or the green grass grew,
Ger the mouldering stern of the old canoe.

TAxATioN--PovERTY-- The Hon.
Amasa Watkins, a loyal man, in recent num-
Der of "Hunt's Merchants Magazine, a loyal
journal, makes certain predictions, having ref
erence to our future, which show, not made
quately why, after the war is over, the Govern
ment of the United States will have to deal with
great masses Of disconnected population:
"Taxation will be heavy, continuous, and
pressing. 1t will bear with great force upon
the masses Of the people. Their consumption
of wealth, and, of course, their trade, must be
restricted. What a man pays in taxes he can
not expend for clothes. Every expenditure
must be curtailed to meet the demand of the
inevitable tax-gatherer The result will be the
ordinary consumption viii be less, and extraor-
dinary consumption MORE Those who pay the
taxes must buy less, those who receive the pub
lie dividends will be able to buy more there
will be less priced and more high-priced
goods sold, more luxuries and fewer necessaries,
proportionately, than before the war. The cri-
sis through which we are now passing is des-
tined, whether fortunately or unfortunately, to
assimilate the nation to European civilization.
The great debt which we shall create will prob
ably never be paid. The nations of Europe do
not pay debts; they pay the interest. They
cannot pay the principal because their current
revenues are required 70 meet the interest, carry
on government, and prepare for war in time of
peace. Such is our destiny so far as all present
appearances indicate the future.
