THE winter is cold, the winter is gray,
But he hath not a sound on his tongue to-day;
The son of the stormy autumn, he
Totters about on @ palsied knee,
With frozen heart and a feeble head;
Let rs pierce a barrel and drink him dead!
The fresh New Year is almost here;
Let as warm him with mistletoc bough, my dear
Let us welcome him hither, with songs and wine,
Who holdeth such joys in his arms divine!
What is the past to you, or me,
But thing that was, and was to be?
And now it has gone TO worlds unknown
Its deeds are done; its fight is flown!

"TD CHOOSE TO BE BABY l''-The following
parody by Fred. Buckley, on the beautiful bal.
lad, "Pd Choose to be a Daisy" Is published in
sheet music by one of the most popular music
houses in New York:
I'd choose to be baby,
A darling little flower,
Without a care OF sorrow,
As was In chiidhood's hour.
When ladies (heaven bless them,}
They'd kiss me and they'd vow,
That they could almost eat me,
Why don't they do It nOw'
When I used to be baby,
They'd to my cradle creep,
They'd kiss and hug and cuddle me,
Till fell of to sleep.
Yes, they'd kiss and squeeze ne too,
Till 1 felt any how,
They'd even wash and dress me,
Why don't thy dOit nowf
For pleas'd they were to nurse ne,
They would take me on their lap,
Aad would stuff my little belly full
OF lolipops and pap.
AH0J "OuAu SHS" AA4S tips anu OoItVnHli
And if made a row,
They'd press ne to their bosomS
Why don't they doit now2
When the ladies used to love me,
They would make me such nice clothes,
They would make me mice morocco shoea
And wipe my little nose.
And when the shades of evening came,
And sleep came DER my brow.
They said its time to 90 TO bed,
But they never say so now.

Fast You've LADIEs.-TEe divorce court
has shown US the social end Of several fast
young ladies' They begin their career by
being very jolly, rolliCking girls, amusing
enough, no doubt, as long as they are young
and irresponsible; but their brothers come
home from college, and they emulate their
swagger and their slang. They affect taste
for vuwomanly things, and soon acquire a
real love for excitement, unknown to respec-
table ladies thirty years Of age have heard
Of girls smoking cigaretts ani carrying bet
Ting books. The surroundings of all this sort
Of thing need no comment If the girl mar
ries a sensible man he will at once put an
end to everything of the kind; if he is a
fool he permits it, and reaps the cOnse-
quences.
As the husband 60 the wife is thou art mated with
clown,
And the gossness of his nature will have weight to
drag thee down"
Bat the misery does not end in the nine
days scandel; the real sufferers, at least the
only sufferers. worthy Of pity, are children
who, in latter life, blush to hear their moth
er's name if daughters, they themselves new
er quite escape the shadow of the family dis

SWAPPING BABIEs.-Last week a
strange woman, with an infant in her
arms, entered a house in Boston and
asked leave to stay awhile, as she weak
and tired She also asked for something
stimulating, saying that she had recently
been confined The lady of the house
went to the get glass Of ale for the
stranger, and on returning found that her
own infant, which she had left asleep in
the cradle, had been taken away by her
visitor and a negro baby left in its Stead.
Nothing has been heard of the woman
since, and the affair creates great excite
ment among the interested parties.
1t was = cruel and most unnatural act,
but as the people of Massachusetts, have
long been Iaboring to make the nigger
baby better than the white one, possibly
the distressed mother may in time be
eonsoled aud accept the change as for
the lest!
