ROCK ME TO SLEEP.

Backward, turn backward, Time, in your
fight,
Make me child again just for tonight
Mother, come back from the echoless shore,
Take me again to your heart as ofyore;
Kiss from my forehead the burrows of care,
Smooth the few silver threads out of my hair.
Over my slumbers your loving watch keep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleepl
Backward, flow backward, o tide of the
yearsl
am SO weary OF toll and OF fears
Toll without recompense-tears all in vain
Take them, and give me my childhood againl
have grown weary of dust and decay
Weary of flinging my soul wealth away;
Weary of sowing for others to reap
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleepl
Tired ofthe hollow, the base, the untrue
Mother, o mother, my heart calls for you'll
Many summer the grass has grown green
Blossomed and faded, our faces between;
Yet with strong yearning and passionate
pain,
Long tonight for your presence again,
Come from the silence so long and so deep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleepl
Over my heart, in the days that have flown,
No love like the mother-love ever has shone,
No other worship abides and endures-
Faithful, unselfish, and patient like yours;
None like mother can charm away pain
From the sick eonl and the world tvaorv
brain,
Slumber's soft calms DER my heavy lids
creep
Rock me to sleep, mother--rock me to sleepl
Come, let your brown hair, just lighted with
gold,
Fall on your shoulders again as of old
Let it drop over my torhead tonight,
Shading my faint eyes away from the light;
For with its sunny-edged shadows once more
HAPPY will throng the sweet visions of yore--
Lovingly, softly, its bright pillows sweep
Rock me to sleep, mother--rock me to sleep!
Mother, dear mother, the years have been
long
Since last listened to your lullaby song;
Sing, then, and unto my soul it shall seem
Womanhood's years have been only a dream,
Clasp to your heart in loving embrace,
With your light lashes just sweeping my
face,
Never hereafter to wake or to weep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleepl

A REAL ESTATE STORY.

The Boston Commercial Bulletin is re-
sponsible for the following story:
A gentleman of this city, who had deter
mined to retire from the cares of business
and indulge himself in a mania for amateur
farming, had a very attractive estate-on
paper-presented to his notice by broker.
There was the usual Substantial dwelling
house, large barn and outbuildlngs, unfailing
spring of water, thirty fruit trees, rich pas
ture and arabic land" &c; situated, of
course, ''in the immediate vicinity of school
houses, churches, and all the advantages of
civilization" The merchant was charmed
with the description, and was on the point
of purchasing, when he happened to meet
an old farmer acquaintance, who, he sud
denly remembered, lived in the neighbor-
hood of his contemplated investment After
the usual inquiries on the merchants part in
regard to the weather, prospect of crops,
&c, and on the farmers as to the proper
method OF disposing of the ''coopoons" on
some government bonds, the former asked;
''Do you know G-'s place, up your
way9"
"Know It'll Yaas, guess I do; lives thin
two miles o. my place. Drefle shirless
critter, tho; hadn't got much of anything
on his farm except heavy mortgage Coin
to sell him out putty soon, guess"
"Indeedp' said the merchant, thought
fully; "msmanaged, I suppose--don't at.
tend to his business Splendid piece of land,
though, is it not?"
"Waal, might be for some purposes; oul
s'lectmen did think of buying it once for a
cemetery, but the sle was so orrul poor and
sandy that nothin' ever came up that was
planted in it, and they were afraid thered
never be any resurrection therer'
The broker lost his sale of that farm.

Faint hearts were strong again;
He swung his hat in the van;

Cleveland daily leader. [volume] ([Cleveland, Ohio]) 1865-1873, 1866-03-07


But so soon as Governor DennisOn
thought the LEADER man had held the
Postmastership as long as was judicious
and fair, he turned against the Governor
than whom Ohio never had more honest
and consistent Republican and Union
man-with all the venom disappointed
ambition. and the loss of official tmolu-
ments, could create.
If that does not show at least one
newspaper man who cannot hold an office
and be honest, we look in vain for an
illustration. If the remark quoted by
the LEADER was really made, it undoubt-
edly referred to the LEADER man, whose
nose snuffs nothing but bread and butter.
-CleueIaHd Herald.
Our readers will bear witness that the
LEADER never said one word against Gov.
Dennison since the present Postmaster was
appointed, eight months ago, until the for
mer gave in his adhesion to the President
in his attempt to break up the great Union
party. Being mere clerk Of the Presi-
dents and expected to carry out his will,
Governor D's. Recommendation of the ed
itor of the Herald had no weight whatever
It was the influence of the Congressman
that carried the appointment. Consequent
" it would be foolish to whine Herald fash
ION, against him, for doing that which
amounts to nothing.
The LEADER has no ill-feeling whatever
against Gov. Dennison, although he tried
hard to get its editor removed shortly
after ne, Gov. D., was appointed Postmas-
ter-General, for the purpose Of having hii
pet G. A. B. appointed. He failed awing
