When gloomy night spreads over all,

The snow doth still
On plain and hill
Come swiftly down With royal will.
And when the morning bright and fair,
Comes clear and keen with its frosty air,
The snow piled high
In drifts doth lie
Sparkling like stars in wintry sky.
Over the earth, no sound is heard;
Far DER the earth scarce a soul has stirred
Each brook nud ril

But the sun shines bright Ger vale and hill.

The Old Pine Tree.
BY mrs. A. q. TANLEY

BYNRs. A. q. STANLEY.
Lightly, o ye winds Of winter,
Roaming Ger the mountain free,
Bearing frosts upon your armors,
White as foam upon the sea;
Soften down your voice of thunder
Ere you reach the Old Pine Tree.
Touch it lightly, with your finger,
o, thou mighty winter king
Do not hang it with your jewels,
Which will vanish in the Spring
Let it stand there, softly signing,
Till the birds begin to sing.
Whisper softly, o ye brooklets,
Coming from the mountain side,
Floating through your crystal palace,
Bearing music on your tide.
Whisper tu the Pine free softly,
As you pause close by her side.
Gently, gently. little snowHakcs,
Gather on her boughs of green;
Like wee frozen stars descending,
To adorn your lovely queen,
To adorn her with tho glory
OF your diamond. crystal sheen.
Twitter, twitter, joyous snowbirds.
From your glossy little throats;
Gather ia her shelf ring branches,
Whilo the snow around you floats,
Screnade the Pine Tree sweetly.
With your dainty warbling notes.
Hasten onward, ye breezes,
Coming Ger the southern sea,
Bringing tidings Of th. Spring-time,
Freigbted with sweet beivuy.
Bring your wind -harps, widest, sweetest,
Hang them on tie Old Pine Tree.
