Change.



~ in the period Of the twelve months just
past. Some have been sudden, and their vio-
lence has given a shock TO the public pulse
others have been slow and gradual, occurring
almost As imperceptibly as the changing hue
Of leaves in autumn. To some sorrow has
been brought, and hearts brave and true,
vilded with the gold Of generosity and kindly
are bowed in sadness; while others,
of lighter mood and gayer spirit, have only
because the halcyon days have
passed apace. Some have lived in a monoto-
ny-not dreary to them, because il has become
a second nature, yet not rejecting that hope,
perchance food for their hearts portion,
which enables them to see brighter cleaning
upon the far-of horizon. There are those who
have sinned, and, IL not yet repented, are
waiting with patience for the time when the
world shall smile upon them as men and wo-
men changed for the better. Success has at
tended some, and pockets that were always
full have become plethoric. Disappointments
have racked the hearts Of others, and they
have been constrained to seek comfort in the
thought that life is long, and that Times
plowshsre, though marking their brows, is
turning over the soil Of life, and the fallow
fields will produce richer barvests after
awhile, when the seeds Of happiness, planted
by the hand Of virtue, shall terminate and
grow. All have been wishing and hoping for
a change. Those who have done well have
wished change for the better those who
have done i'll would prefer to fee to those ills
they know not Of than to endure their present
woes.
But il was not our purpose to speak Of the
changes the beggar wished, the Christian
prayed for, the unhappy man longed to see, or
the gold-worhiper made his calculations to
effect; but simply to note for the entertain
ment, IL not information, Of those interested
in this locality, few changes that have taken
place since the first spring month Of 1872;
