WRITTEN ron THE BEL TO LITTLE MAY--JuLY, 1876.

 Now little May bonnie bird, tell me pray What are you doing this beautiful day? Plucking the daisies, or blossoms of clover, In the meadow with grandpa, watching the hay, Merrily laughing to see 1t tossed overY
 Singing songs, little May, Is that what you're doing this beautiful day? Am wrongI did you Say2 well then, little May know what you're doing this beautiful day: With sly.stolen rosebud on your Hnger-tips (You are out in the garden with grandma say) You run to her softly, and offer your lips
 You rogue, little May! An! that's what you're doing this beautiful day, And now, little May, if am far away, can see you in fancy, at sunset to-day: With blue eyes close pressing the clear win.
 dow pane, In mamma's s arms nestled, you're wanting to say There's papa!" and running to meet him
 again,
 Comes papa's own May. He thought of you often this beautiful day The twilight comes on, and the eve wears away, The sports are all ended, and, tired with play, Our birdie lies down in her warm little nest, Tiny hands, tiny feet, busy all the long day; The angels are guarding her now while she
 rests.
 Good night, little May, God give thee sweet sleep till the dawn of the
 day. And sweet sleep to us all; the Father above Sees we are but children. In infinite love He shows us the weakness of much that we
 do. But if when the night comes our trust we will
 prove, Our sins all confessed, each His child He
 will view
 Like the ark and the dove, Our refuge and rest are the arms of His love-

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.


As betting on the election of GER
tain ticket or candidate is an "argu-
ment" used by many nowadays to con.
vince their opponents of the error OF
their ways. we publish the following
from the election law. relative to the
subject:
Every person who makes, offers or
accepts any wager or bet upon the re-
salt OF any election. or upon the sue.
cess or failure OF any person or eaodi-
date, or upon the number of votes to
be cast, either in the aggregate or for
any candidate, or upon the vote to be
cast by any person. is guilty OF a mis-
denleanor.
1t appears from this that, betting on
elections is as criminal as committing
petty. larceny.
