THE DIBING YEAR.

AS years multiply about our head
leaving their impress there, swifter,
yea than the weaver's shuttle, seem
to fly the moments and months that
form the calendar of time. Years
seem to run into each other with
faster schedule and closer connec~
tons, than when a boy we used to
look forward from one Christmas to
another, anxious for the advent Of
Santa Claus, to swell the suspended
stocking with the usual supply Of
presents we we're taught by custom
to expect. Then to our youthful
Imagination time seemed to be slow
Of foot making the strides laziIy and
YEARLY, but now so swift that the
years seem 20 crowd impa;ieutly one
upon the other, jostling and pushing
each other off the stage Of being into
the eternity Of the past.
Thus again we are drawn around
the couch of another dieiug year, sc
soon to be coAined in oblivion and
sepulchered in forgetfulness, and
thus as we contemplate its demise
events come trooping before the
memory and retrospection travels
back ward through The cbarnel house
Of time, treasuring gems that were
precious, as well as lamenting the
waste Of pearls that might have
been saved with some hopes real
lied and others blasted. Thus we
learn as much from our mistakes as
our successes, gathering strength
from weakness.
The year has been one of stirring
events and thrilling epiSOdeo-its
records shows
~ he -adde.t tales hat ever We're told,
| To chill he hearts Of the young and old.
OF storms at sea- when the heavens lrown,
| Aud the waves roll up, and the ships g
down;
OfGres lhat lick The sad earth clean
And leave waste WheJe wealth has been;
OF foods that crancL IN heir madsome play
Aud leap and lash till the shores give way,
Then away DER the country bounding nee,
Rushing, widening into a sea,
Til the unleapt haiyest's hid in sand,
Aud tie huit il swept from the sewers hand 2
Many homes that were bright
with living presences, this time last
year, have in the intermediate time
been darkened with the chilling
shadow Of the enemy of mortality
and hearts that beat in sympathy
aud warmth, lie husbed in the un-
cIasped grasp of the monster death,
only to be quickened into newness
Of life at the funeral Of time, when
time shall be no more,
With the going out of the Centen'
NAL year, perchauco our Republican
form of government dies with it,
Judging from the way our Caesar at
Washington throttles States and dis
regards the Constitution. "Let us
have peace" has been supplanted by
"Let us have war;" and Grant the
author of both sentences, seems bent
on mischief. Let US hope the COM
spirators will be defeated and that
''Grantism," and not the Republic,
will die with the "dieing year"
