AFTER TWENTY YEARS.

Although you've been husband true,
'Tis many year gone by, John,
And I'm faithful wife 10 you
(And will be till die, JOHN,
We led lonely sort of life,
With no sweet child ~ bless IA,
Till Bessy came last Christmas day,
To comfort and caress us.
Our baby has father gray,
A mother none too young, John,
And yet II seems the time Of May,
Fer since our birding sang, John,
She brought new life into the house,
The little, prattling stranger.
And, John, she binds You to your home
Who might have been ranger.
Once every chair was In It's place,
And not a thing awry, John,
Yet we two, sitting face to face,
Would often breathe sigh. John
But now upon our ample board
IL daily placed between us
A picture-plate and porringer,
From loneliness To wean US.
While she. our little baby queen,
With eyes 80 like your own, John,
(The brightest, bluest ever seem,
Eats with us on her throne, John.
Heaven guard our precious little one
May angels fair, that brought her,
Protect from every threat'ning i'll
The odd folks" little daughter.

Business Prospects in New England.

DuSIHcSS TTOSpectS Ill NEW EHSlhHus
The symptoms of reviving business are
not being studied so much as they have
been, but robuster and surer-footed
confidence appears instead. The March
winds are not more effectually brushing
the clouds of winter off the blue floor of
heaven than is this stitfening breeze of
universal confidence hurrying all doubts
and hesitation out of sight. In short,
the business sky is rapidly clearing, and
hope and trust are coming out to the
view. Every one realizes that the past
three and a half years are not to be re-
traced, but that the costly experience of
that term has prepared the way
for the resumption of operations on
foundation that promises to be perma-
nent. The observations of the best gen
eral business authorities all unite in
prophecies of a speedy improvement in
trade affairs.
Manufacturers feel the incoming infiu-
ence equally with the merchants, as the
full renewal OF work in mill after mill
explains. An inspection of the
markets of the country shows that
over production no longer obstructs COM
mercial movements. In the products OF
the fields and the mills there has been a
thorough working-up process going on,
till at the present time the call is forpro-
duction to take hold again. And this
implies the loading of cars, canal-boats
and lake vessels, the freighting of ocean
steamers, and busy distribution every
where by the enterprise and energy of
the great mercantile class. The machine
ny is all in order and well oiled, and it
is already beginning to move. When
the long obstructed channels are free
again, the life will be the most cheering
we have had since the few years imme-
diately preceding the war, which all hope
is at last ended. -BOstOn Post

PUNCH ON AMERICAN BEEF.

British Butcher.

British Butcher.
London Cor New York Herald.l
American beef has been honored this
week with n cartoon in Punch entitled
"Bos Americans or, Yankee Beef and
English Butcher" The picture is ex-
ceedingly clever in conception. 1t por-
trays well-fed OK, the various joints OF
which are marked in true cookery-book
fashion, mt prices ranging from to 81
pence per pound. The head is spotted
with stars, like the field of the American
flag, and the creases of the neck are
formed into stripes. The bull losses in

are scrolls marked BEEF, I'D, Nut

slaughterer of beeves sees the vision OF

as follows

"who the dickens are you?" snarled the butcher,
With prepostorous prices TO puzzle and pain us?
Said the bull, with wink. % Wall, I'm known when
As Bos Americanus.'"
" oho /" yelled the butcher, that much talked-of
Yankee
That's coming to cut down profits? No,
I'm boss of this business, and mean if can,
To keep to traditional prices"
Quoth the bull through his nose, 81 don't doubt
you, old man,
But you're hardly awake 10 this crisis of crises.
Smart trick of those cannie Scotch heshers. Dare
say
You'd pot in that pile but the games had it's
day.
My advent is fast getting known to the town;
Like the coon to our Colonel, you'll have to come
down."
"come down :" yelled the butcher; "a jolly fine
joke.
I'll come down you hot, you'll presently feel"
And he " went for that bos with his knife and his
steel
But, hoist like football awoke
And found he had dropped all his bills in his
fright
An omen which spoiled his repose for the night.
