Sweet little bird, ! dote on thee. i.
In early spring, when chilling blast
And piercing winds blow high and cold,
You seem to show, BY your sweet cnst,
That summer time is nigh and told. y
Who would not love these little birds!
So full of lifo and joyous gloe;
No one en- earth cab give in words
Such themes, that dwell in harmony. '
Yc come to cheer tho lonely bcart. "a %
Which bears its cares till winters o'cr;
You little birds, we " i'll not part, ar

A True IDEA OF THE NORTHERN GENE
RA1.s.-Thc suspicion is gaining ground
that had we put in Grant & Co. at the time
we did Mcclellan they would, in all human
probability, come out as we'll plucked as he
was. These last great heroes of the war
had the good luck to be IN command When
the Confederates had no longer the fierce
armies that sent ours whirling back into
Washington. The war had ended in the
South nearly year before we learned the
fact at the North. Of course this is neither
patriotic nor loyal. One ought to puff, and
snort, and bump ones head before the idol
of the day, whether he has brain or is only
stuffed out with old nswspapsgs.-Don
Piafs.
