HAWTHORN BLOSSOM.


When the hawthorn blossom
Found itself so fair,
1t came dancing, dancing
Through the scented air,
1t came flying, flying
To my happy breast
O my hawthorn blossom,
/ will love you best.
When the hawthorn blossom
Knew that it must die,
Il came dropping, dropping,
Where the grasses lie;
1t lay fading, fading
Where the dai les grew
O my hawthorn blossom,
| will mourn for you
But the hawthorn blossom
Cannot dead remain,
1t comes leaping, leaping
Into lite again;
It is blooming. blooming
Each succeeding spring.
Death can never conquer
Such pretty thing
o my hawthorn blossom,
Nothing meath the skies
That is good or lovely
Ever really dies; ut
All that's bright within US
Born again viii be,
Like the snowy blossom
On the hawthorn-tree.

POETRY.
THE TWO sPRITES.
BY 5. JENNIE JONES.

Come and sit beside me, children,
In the shifting sunset lights,
And I'll tell you, if you'll listen,
OF two busy little sprites,
Busy, busy, always busy,
from the mornings till the nights.
One is slow in all her movements,
And her form is bent aWry,
And a frown is on her forehead
And a scowl is in her eye, kr
And if you viii listen closely,
You will often hear her sigh.
If you let her once come near you,
BY the sea or by the land,
If you let her wave before you
Once the wretched little wand
Which. whereer she goes or tarrles,
Still she carries in her hand, G
You will find the lesson hopeless
Which was easy when begun,
And the shortest task so heightened
That it never will be dope,
And a thousand grievous troubles
Where before you found but one.
Do not listen to her whispers
Do not look at her, pray;
Always turn your back upon her
In your work and in your play,
Or you Ii always ma mountain
Or a lion in your way.
But the other comes with footsteps
Dancing lightly as the breeze. 4.
And her face is wreathed with smiling
Like the sunshine 'mong the trees,
And her song is like the bird-notes,
Yet cen merrier than these. 81
Ifher dancing feet should travel,
In the path the first has trod,
You will see the frowning mountains,
Quickly vanish at her nod, e,
And the shadows flee to hide them
From before her tiny rod.
When she waves the silver scepter,
Ifyou follow in the way, 43
Never, never turning backward, gE
At the closing of the day
With crown success will wait you,
All your labor TO repay.
Will you ha We the bright attendant,
Or the sprite with scowling eye? ,f
You must choose between them, children
One of them is always by.
And their names-pray listen closely
Are, CAN'T and | WILL TRY. 9d

MUTILATED CURRENCY Complaint is
made by those who have occasion to re
turn national currency to the treasury
department, of the petty discount made
for infntisimal mutilation of bills A
bank officer sends thousand sdollars in
greenbacks to Washington for exchange,
and reduction is made of ten, twenty or
| fifty cents. The excuse for this deduc-
tion, which is more annoying than the
loss of much greater sum, is that there
may be some people who make dishonest
living by mutilating and patching to,
gether the pieces OF national promisary
notes. But there is neither warrant for
the deduction in law, nor any sound rea
son for it. There is propriety in clip
ping a part of the expressed value of a
| light weight coin, but none whatever for
Applying the same rule to a mutilated
bill. A coin may be clipped and the
metal melted and recoined A note is
promise to pay, and the size of the piece
of paper on which it is sprinted is of the
smallest consequence. If all the essen.
tial parts Of the bill are presenr--the
promise, the signature and the seai-all
capable of certification, it is absurd to say
that a five dollar note has lost twentieth
part Of its value by having figure 5
torn from one corner. The gain to The
government by the charge referred TO is
microscopic, the vexation to the public is
/ quite the reverse.
