composing il. 1t came to us and
passed away frelghted witi,blcssings.
1t brought with 1t pleasure, and like
wise sorrow; its lessons stand out as
landmarks for our future guidance.
We behold to day another mile
stone on the road of time, on one
side inscribed the history Of the past,
and on the other the unseen future
with its hopeful promises.
A "happy new-year" will be the
greeting wish ofeyery. household ito
day, and rs we pause IN half pleased,
half sad retrospection OF the past, we
cannot wonder that this should be
the uppermost desire in every true
heart.
1t is also the anniversary on which
resolutions are made-to be broke II
during the year. How many there
are at this new starting point in life's
Journey who will resolve to turn over
a new leaf, drop bad habits, aim at n
higher and nobler life, aud yet fail
to make good their resolutions.
We wish you all, dear readers, o
year Of unexampled prosperity what
ever may he your resolutions, and Il
