new faith and trust could emanate from
its folds.

SoReHUM.-The SoTgo Journal gives
tho following advice as to gathering and
housing the canes "AfLer the cane has
remained upon the ground about two
days, provided no rain has occurred, the
blades will have become wilted, and then,
without further delay, the cane should be
hsuled from the field, and if not immedi-
ately ground, stored in sheds or barns,
and, perfectly protected from rain.. Thus
cured, and thus secured, the cane will
keep sweet and fresh until Christmas.
Should any portion of the cane get wet
in the field, this should be hauled to the
mill and ground without more delay. 1t
is best not to store cane that has been wet
even though thOroughly dried afterMard." /"

RAIN UPON THE ROOF.

The might, with her sable pinions,
Is lowering DER the earth,
And far through her dark dominions,
Ring thinking tones Of mirth:
The moon Is no longer beaning,
And clouds are all star proof.
There Is no 10Gnd diurnal
Fer yields me such delight
As the step Of the soft rain vernal
Onthe rattling roof at night;
am wrapped IN pleasant fancies,
While slumber is far alOof,
As list to the dainty dances
OF the rain upon the roof.
The wind is awake and dashing
The drops on the window pane,
And the leaves, like cymbals clashing,
Keep time with the rhythmic rain;
But no discordant chatter
OF a solitary hoof
Comes down TO mar tho patter
OF the rain upon the roof.
From the night SO grim and sooty
VIII morning fair arise,
With myriad forms Of beauty
To glad our wondering eyes;
For the spirit of Spring is working
At her marvellous web and wool,
And part Of the spell is lurking
In the rain upon the roof.
It brings to me vision
OF flowers and fruitful trees,
In land that seems elysiEn,
All alive with birds and bees;
Where sweetest songs are gushing
Aloud, without reproof,
And the ripping rils are rushing,
Like the rain upon the roof.
see the grain grow greener
For the blessing Of the skies,
That makes mans face serener,
And lights with joy his eyes;
anticipate the pleasure
Heaven grants for his behoof,
And my heart leaps 70 the measure
OF the rain upon the roof.
Thus do muse and listen
To the music Of the rain,
Whose drops innumerous glisten
Like diamonds through the pane;
And I'm wrapped in pleasant fancies.
While slumber is far aloof,
- list to the dainty dances
OF the rain upon the roof.

tastefulness-namely, those of Miss NJ.
Gregory, Miss Henry, Miss Townley,
Miss Testaferrata Abela and Miss Hippis-
ley.
The lace worn was very splendid. The
Princess Mary's is renowned, therefore
the Princess of Wales patronized Irish
lace. Mrs. Layard, for q reason that
may be conceived, wore Spanish lace
which was remarkably handsome, while
the following ladies also had magnificent
lace: The Hon. Mrs. WalIoud, the Hon.
Mrs. Motley, Mrs. Gaskell, Mrs Douglas
Murray, Mrs. Burchad Hclme, Mrs. Bing-
ham Mildmay and Mrs. Arthur Bass
The gems were very beautiful, pariicu-
larly those of the Princess Mary, Count
ess of Glasgow, Mrs. A. Beaumont,
Duchess of Roxburghe, Mrs. Jones lloyd,
Mrs Snowdon Henry, Mrs. Ford, Lady
Dalrymple, Mrs. Frank Morrison and Mrs.
Gardner.
The early part of the day was very
warm and pleasant, still towards the time
for the first to take their leave there was
an unpleasant change; but thea all could
seek without danger to costume the COM
fort of their wraps, and encase themselves
even deep within the folds of their dresses,
a fashion not unfrequently adopted. But
there was more cheerfulness and dash,
and there were lively strains of the bands
heard as of yore in st. James's, though
the early leavers at the last drawing room
were not conscious, through the late hour
of arrival of the bands, that they were in
on that occasion.
