CHRISTMAS MORNING.
BY cuARLks DICKENS.

Twas the morning Of Christmas;
And Benny and Ned
Had captured their stockings,
And gone back TO bed;
And there In their night-gowns,
As soon as twas light,
They emptied their treasuresj
And D, what a sight!
Such stockings long stockings
Mammals, ! SUPPOSED
Filled full to the openings,
And crammed to the toes.
"Isn't Santa Tlaus dood, Ned ?"
Cried Benny, "Dus' look
An see what he's div me:
A drate picture book"
-" And me - exclaimed Neddy
:" Mines diffrent from yourn;
'Tis chuck full Of stories,
And long words to learn
But then you know, Benny,
I'm older than you,
AID need older presents,
AS SANITY Claus knew"
"O-o-or' shouted Benny
"a big Noah's Ark;
An lots OF wild alimals
An here is tart
Wiy little horse in IL;
He looks like our Ace,
For he's tinder spottled,
And dot white face"
al never p said Neddy,
"What's this do you think
A bag full Of marbles,
Iguess, by the chink.
Besides a great buzz top,
All red, white and blue
And a two.bladed jack-kniie
Have you got one too 2"
"Dess not" answered Benny,
"But Pve dot cat;
An sheep vat says ba-al
Pew pinch him like that.
And then here Is somefin
Tied up with strin,-
o, Neddy, 'tis tandy
Dus put core hand in
Dye feel what 4 lot 'tisf
fought I'd have some;
For ma said sould have,
When Santa Tlaus tum."
"Merry Christmas, my darlingsl
Why not up before ~
And mamma with baby,
Appeared at the door.
