MOLLY AT THE GATE.
BY MARY cLEMMER.

BY the road two married naples,
Where the robins love to mate;
On the grass beneath their shadow,
Molly's waiting by the gate.
Dark or bright the day that saileth,
Silent, under heavens dome,
II had one sole hour for Molly,
That which brings her father home.
He, withinthe painting city,
Working our man s common fate,
Often sees, before hts vision.
Little Molly by the gate;
Who hath proved his strong defender,
VINO doth hold him pure and true,
by the baby face upl;ited,
Budding mouth, and eyes Of blue
Everywhere. some dear temptation
Hoids alluremerts fair and new;
Safe little child doth lead him.
AL the perilons pathway through.
Evermore his spirit sees her,
Be 1t early, be At late,--
SIN the Iittle, dear child daughter,
Molly, waiting by the gate.

A Trick

A silly and ungentlemanly trick was played
upon us last November in getting the following
as local netice in the Telegraph:
Coal Coal Coal!
great fall In the cost of coal, in Kenosha
Baldwin, now make sas grand strike, or you
will never be the Mayor OF Kenosha.
The copy OF the above was brought to the office
and left with the foreman by some one who said
in answer to inquiry what it ment, that Baldwi II
would know The first we knew of it was it,
appearance in proof. We thought ittstrange that
Mr. Baldwin would furnish such a notice bat
concluded he might think its oddty would max c
it attract the more attention. We Rave recently
learned that Mr. Baldwin sknew nothing of it til
he saw it in the Telegraph and then wondered
how it got there.
The notice appeared not long after the failure
of Mr.. Q. G. King and 1t ia thought by those Who
may know the NEST about it next to the writer
that 1t was intended 40 a take-off upon Mr.. King s
failure. But II such was the intention it failed OF
it's purpose, for it was not generally understood
and but few ever thought of It's having reference
to Mr.. King or his Failure.
AS far as we know this is the first time trick
of the kind has ever been successfully played
upon us AID it would not have been this time,
If the person who we were informed brought the
notice to the Office could have been suspected OF
trickery. But some persons will sometimes
resort to triekery when others are unwilling to
suspect them of it. And, thclgh it may have
been the intention to playa take-off upon anolh-
er rather than trick upon US, it was equally
represensible. and tho result proves 1t TO have
been trick upon and not a take-off upon any
one

CARRIERS ADDRESS.

SHALL we sing dirge for the old dead year2
Or song of happy and hopeful cheer
For the new one, born at twelve last night,
Greeting this morning its first ray of light,
Welcomed, stranger, by old and by young,
With name just coined, oddly fitting the
tongue?
Let the old year rest, with its records complete,
With it's sorrows and joys, it's bitter and sweet,
All its hopes, disappointments, defeats and mis-
takes,
In his arms kindly folded, the old year takes
The soul that is loyal to life looks not back
To mourn for the past but on in the track
OF the future, with stronger and kindlier will.
Makes the next years record a fairer one still
Wlsre failure last year brought with it Distress
Let wisdom and caution the next, bring success.
Where blunder undid what might have been
DONE"
Be the wished for result by experience won
Let failure, defeat, disappointment, mistake,
In the path of our striving, but upward steps
make!
o Name with the mystical number twice told
Some new treasures for us you surely must hold
Charm away the old strife, bring in the new
peace!
With purity strengthen, with honor increase!
May the whole world be better at close of thy
reign!
May it know less of poverty, sorrow and pain
May it hold more of knowledge, of truth and of
light
More hatred of evil, more love of the right
May you bring to our patrons the TELEGRAPH's
friends.
The good which endureth, the peace that ne'er
ends
That you may bring to all a full measure of joy,
Is the glad New Year wish of the
CARRIER Boy.
