January L.

Winter Is come eg lin. The sweet south west
b forgotten wind, and the strong earth
Has laid aside its mantle to be bound
By the frost fetter. There Is not a sound,
Save of the skaters heel, and there is laid
An icy finger on the lip Of storms,
And the clear icicle hangs cold and still,
And the snowfall Is noiseless as thought.
Spring has rushing sound, and Summer sends
MANY sweet voices with it's odors out,
And Autumn rustleth its decayiDg robe
With complaining whisper Winters dumb!
God made his ministry silent one,
And he hasgiven him foot OF steel
And an unlovely aspect, and breath
Sharp to the senses-and We know that lie
Tempereth we'll, and hath q meaning hid
Under the shadow of His hand. Look up;
And it shall be Interpretations home
Hath temptation now! There Is no voice
OF waters with beguiling for your ear,
And the cool forest and the meadows green
Witch not your feet away; and In the dells
There are no violets, and upon the hills
There are no sunny places to lie down.
You must 20 in, and by your cheerful fire
Wait for the offices of love, and hear
Accents Of human tenderness, and feast
Your eye upon the beauty of the young.
It Is season for the quiet thought,
And the still reckoning with myself. The year
Gives back the spirits Of lis dead, aud time
Whispers the his DRY of its vanished hours;
And the heart, calling its affections up,
Counteth its wasted ingots. Life stands still
And settles like fountain, and the eye
Sees clearly through its depths, and noteth all
That stirred its troubled waters. It is well
That winter with the dying year should come

How q Man Goes to Bed.

Speaking OF how man goes to bed, an
exchange says: "There's where a man
has the advantage. He can undress in a
cold room, and have his bed warm before
a woman has got her hair. pins out and
her shoes untied.' That's how it looks
in print, and this is how it looks really:
Pm going to. bed, my dear. It's half
past ten.' No reply. Nov, John, you
know you're always late in the morning.
Do go to bed" Yes, in minute he re-
plies, as he turns the paper inside out and
begins lengthy article headed The Lou

she calls from the bedroom: John, come
to bed and don't keep the gas burning
there all night!' and murmuring some
thing about the bill being big enough
now, she creeps between the cold sheets
while John reads placidly on, his feet
across the piano-stool and cigar in his
mouth. By-and-by he rises, yawnss
stretches himself, throws the paper on the
floor, and Selling the shaker, proceeds to
that vigorous exercise, shaking the coal
stove. Just at this stage a not
altogether pleasant voice inquiries: For

don't you 90 to sleep and let a fellow
alone2' Then he discovers that there is
coal needed. When that is supplied and
ratified into the stove, he sits down to
warm his feet. Next, he slowly begins
to undress; and as he stands scratching
himself, and absently gazing on the last
garment dangling over the back of the
chair. he remembers that the
clock is not wound yet. When this is at

away he promenades to the kitchen.
OF course, when be returns his skin re-

1t is very plain, therefore, that no great
antiquity appertains to the great Irish

before the Christian era indeed bronze
seems to have been the chief metal in use
for two or three centuries after that date.
In several instances, we may add, the
bones of the megaceros have been found

been a disposition to discredit the evil
