THE OLD CLOCK.

o. the old, old clock of the household stock,
Was the brightest thing and neatest;
Its hands, though old had touch of gold
And its chimes rang still the sweetest
Twas monitor, too. though its words were few,
Yet they lived, though nations altered;
And its voice still strong warned old and young.
When the voice of friendship faltered
8 Tick, tick it said-"quick, quick to bed
For ten I've given warming
Up, up, and so, or else, you know
You'll never rise soon in the morning"
\ friendly voice was that Old, old clock,
As it stood in the corner smiling,
And blessed the time with merry chime.
The Winter hours beguiling;
But cross old voice was that tiresome clock,
As it called at the daybreak boldly.
When the dawn looked gray on the misty way
And the early air blew coldly;
Tick, tick" it said" quick out of bed.
For five I've given warming;
AouH never have health, you'll never get wealth.
Unless you're up soon in the morning"
Still hourly the clock goes round and round,
With tone that ceases never;
While tears are shed for bright days fled
And the old friends lost forever
Its heart beats on, though hearts are gone
That warmer beat and younger
Its hands still move though hands we love
Are clasped on earth no longer!
Tick, tick" it said-to the churchyard bed,
The grave hath given warming
Up, up, and rise, and look to the skies,
And prepare for the heavenly morning"

ABOUT WELL-WRITTEN inscription
Whatever pleasure have felt during nv
travels, at the sight of a statue or monu.
ment of antiquity, have felt still more in
reading well.written inscription. II
seems to me as if human voice came from
the stone, and making itself heard through
the lapse of ages, addressed man in the
midst of desert, and told him that he
was not alone; that other men, on that
very spot, had felt and thought, and
suffered like himself. If the inscription
belong to an ancient nation, which no

infinite space, and inspires the feeling of its
immortality, by showing that thought has
