A little time TO; laughter,
A little time TO sing,
A little time to kiss and cling,
And no more kissing after.
A little while for scheming
Loves unprotected schemes;
A little time for golden dreams;
Then no more any dreaming.
A little while lives given
To NE to have thy love;
Now, like ghost, alone ! move
About q ruined heaven.
A little time for speaking
Things sweet to say and hear;
A time 10 seek and find thee near;
Then no more any seeking.
A little time for saying
Words the heart breaks TO say,
A short, sharp time wherein to pray
Then no more need for praying.
But long. long years to weep in
And comprehend the whole
Great grief that desolates my soul
And eternity TO sleep in.

George Washington. President elect OF
the United States by the unanimous voice
OF the people. stood Oh 4 balcony in front
Of the Senate Chamber in the old Federal
Hall on Wall street, to take the oath OF
Office. An immense multitude filled the
streets and the windows and roots OF the
adjoining houses. ClaI in q suit Of dark
brown cloth Of American manufacture,
with hair powdered, and with white silk
stockings, silver shoc-buckles and steel
hilted dress swOr6., the hero who had led
the colonies to their independence came
modestly forward to take up the bur,ens
that peace had brought. Profound, silence
fell upon the mul,itute as Washington
responded solrmniy to The reading OF the
oath OF Office, Il swcar-sO help ne God"
Then, amid cheers, the display Of flags,
and the ringing Of all the bells in the city,
our first President turned to face the du-
ties his cOuntrymen had imposed upon
him. In sight of those who would have
Ilade an idol of him, Washington's first
act was to seek the aid OF other aid than
his own. In the calm sunshine OF that
April afternoon, fragrant with the pres
ence of seed time and the promise Of har-
vest, we leave him on his knees in Ole
