1875.

Time is measured by seconds, minutes
hours, days, months, years and centuries
To-day is the commencement Of new year
yesterday was the last Of years passed Tor
ever. A retrospect could bring no soiace
The year 1874 has gone forever and with
it's joys and sorrows. Joys are fleeing
There could be no JOY without sorrow. TIT
sorrows of the past will be lightened by the
lows of the future. This world is not all sun
shine. and neither is it all clouds. Clouds
and sunshine alternate.
Perpetual gladness cannot be conceived
Nature is not, in its aspect, always cheerful
Tears alone can bring relief to the grief Of
the heart, and the dews Of heaven and rains
of the clouds bring forth all the perfume and
beauties of the flowers in nature. An un-
clouded sky without even a passing shadow
would be as dreary as night without the
twinkling Of the stars. We know and feel
Joy only from our sorrows, and in our deepest
affection we know only what cheerfulness
means and is. The past year has been one of
sorrow, and the coming year will be one Of
sorrow also, and, We hope, Of gladness, too. 3.
We cannot obliterate the past. We would
not if we could. We learn wisdom from it.
Its lessons are most valuable, if we only. learn
them well and profit by them, and on the
commencement OF a new year let us look
back, each and all, and ponder upon our acts,
and let the silent admonidons of our consci-
ence direct us in the future to correct the
errors Of the past. Let the New Year begin
with joy, but let us all feel that there is no
such thing as perpetual gladness. The sor-
row and grief brought upon us at the last
Of the past year are what all must
pear and feel at some time.
But we know that time alone heals all
Wounds. It is the soother of atfiiction. While
ve write in sorrow, we yet look forward for
ONE bright spots, some bright thoughts and
Ve say
"Sigh not o! sigh not,
Though the flowers fade,
Bright things that die not
Never were made"
Then cheer up-look forward with hope
nd determination, correct the errors of the
asst, then will the New Year be joyous in
eed.
In the midst of the rejoicings and con-
ivialities of the season the birth of the
Dung year comes to us freighted with the
,nder regrets and kindlier memories Of one
no will never more heed the dawning of the
)ming years. A friend, brother, brave de-
nder OF right and open enemy of wrong,
as left us, and with the last faint simmer
1874 fading on the horizon bursts out the
eart-ight Of the noble D. c. Byerly, the
3ntleman, patriot and friend. Through our
rrow for one lost we yet tender our friends
ID patrons hearty, Garnet Happy New
ear.

Stokes, who brought to our Office the news
that the steamer Belle Lee had arrived at the
wharf of The Crescent City. freighted with the
mammoth load of sos bales of cotton. The
steamer Robt Z. Lee has proudly carried the
''horns" for some tine by reason Of hayirg
brought down 574l bales of cotton, which was
thought to be an extraordinary load, aud one
which could hardly be beaten: but the r. Z.
Lee has now yielded the laurels to the Belle
Lee, who VIII now carry the champion
horns for the largest number of bales of
cotton. The horns were presented by Mr..
Stokes, OF the L. E. Lee, and were received
by Mr.. Gibbs, of the Belle Lee. A Lee
could only be beaten by Lee, and the
steamer Robert has been compelled to paw
homage to the Belle, as would the illustrious
enelal pay homage to Lady.

OvERaRows INrANTs.-They really should
not have done it they should have stayed at
home with mamma. They were entirely too
young to wander around alone, and it was to
be expected tina. they would succomb TO
temptation, and indulge too freely in egg
nogg.
1t was the fault of their parents though no
doubt some parents are SO easy and do "any-
thing please the children" If, however, thew
had only taken from them their little trumpets
and drums and pop-guns when they released
them from their apron strings, we would have
nothing to say but we think if those over
grown infants had disturbed the peace Of the
domestic circle as they last night disturbed
the quiet of the streets, there would have
been disturbance of another kind, and
small boys would have been unable to sit
down for while

LECTURE BY FATHER RYAN.-On Saturda V
evening, January 8, 1875, the eminent poet,
priest and orator, Rev. Abram J. Ryan, will
lecture at st. Patricks Hall on "The Great
Men Of the South" We have no doubt that
the attendance will be very large, as Father
Ryan is well known throughout the South for
his eloquence, his elegant dic.ion, and the
pleasing and interesting manner by which he
always holds his audience spell bound, and
his subject is one which will call forth all his
energies, for the South and its heroes is his
tayorite theme. We would advise those who
have never heard Father Ryan to attend his
lecture, and to those who have this recon-
incubation is not necessary.

Mr.. EYERETr'S POEM
Hushl This is holy groundl
Be stiled the bustling voices Of the hour,
The engines laundering sound;
The lightning, slave and goad TO human power
Traffic, whose headlong pride
Contemns the homely trophies OF the past;
Splendor that dares deride
The plain stern men of old, on whom was cast
The thankless labor Of that elder day,
When first star
Guiding with haIf-seen, fickering light, their way
TO make US what we are.
There breathes fresher gale
deeper note is ripping from the stream
Rich with a sacred tale
Kinded with flashes OF heavenly BEAM
Back comes the forest glade
The uncouth dwellings, clustering low and weak
About yon rough stockade
And that rude temple, where the yeomen seek
A blessing on the store, which stubborn toll,
AS God and love decreed,
Have wrung from cold New England's churlsh soil
Children and wife to feed.
What need Of fort OF fence2
What foe could make such poverty afraid2
Nor gold nor jewels thence
Could haughtiest monarch tear with CORY blade
Yet as gaze there como
Strange sounds of battle from the thicket green,
The tramp OF foot the drum,
The onset cry, the rafting shot between,
Then groans, and silent all; but now the brook
That from the forest gldes,
Syels with a crimson flood, angry look,
And bloody are its sidesl
Ave round those buwarks rude
Month after month"; must ring the deadlest fray
That e'er with blood imbrued
Our woodland streams for from Aquidnecks bay
To lone Wachusett's peak,
And from the rock, where FIRST our fathers slept,
To yonder slvery streak
Unseen, yet felt, the trackless savage crept
/ Till like meteor flash, his brands he threw
And turned, with hideous YELL
To ashes house and field, to red yon blue,
And this our home 10 hell.
| g.
And he the arch hend whose name
| By kings Of old a. fierce and crafty worn
! Had won purer fame,
/ BY Christ's apostle and his preacher borne
What spectres round him troop
| Dark, deadly wasting; as from height to height
| He roused with IRE and whoOp,
\ Strong men 10 death and saughter drove at night
! The wife TO slavory's march through sheeted snow,
Torn by the bullets smart
| Whereof the self same stroke was draining slow
Her wailing Infants heartl
| Yet that long year OF woe,
When week for week fresh nets OF horror drew,

| Nor moment fraught with keener anguish knew,
Than when through Deerfelds glen,
Al starving Hadlcy's call, her food TO share,
Marched Iathrop and his men,

The Internal hornets came,
