EVERY dog has his day." the old saw says:
so, Of course, the city of two Gins has had
hers, and believing herself to be one of the
grandest ofall dogs-the great st. Bernard
revolve and wag their tails respectfully-of
course her day had something about it worth
noticing.
The day write about was Thursday, De-
cember 18th. The event which made that day
different from others of the week was the
long-looked for, much-talked of visit Of
Gen1 and Mrs. Grant.
At first it was rumored that though his
stay here would be very brief, the welcome
extended to him should outshine others
which he had received IN America but first

this city for week there is no telling how
purse strings may have loosened or what
might have been accomplished; but for a
single day, and that a cold, rainy, windy
affair, why nothing could be done satsfac-
tory. So Cincinnati did not show herself to
very good advantage, although she did very
well-considering.
The special train bringing the distin-
guished party reached here at half-past
twelve, and was met at the landing by the
committees having the matter in charge,
delegations of citizens in carriages, the city
officials, mounted police, several companies
of soldiers, squad of ex>army and navy Of
fcers on horseback, various bands of music
and thousands of spectators from the city
and surrounding country.
An arch had been erected bearing the mo-
nogram, U. S. G., and the word
''wELCoME,''
beneath which the procession passed, and
with cannons firing, bells ringing. steam
whistles shrieking and the people shouting,
General Grant was ushered into his native

CHRISTMAS CAROL.


There's song in the air
There's star in the sky;
There's mothers deep prayer,
And baby's low cryl
And the star rains its FIRE while the Beautiful sing
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles King!
There's a tumult OF Joy
Ger the wonderful birth,
For the Virgins sweet boy
Is the Lord of the earth
Ay! the star rains Its fire and the Beautiful sing
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles King.
In the light of that star
Lie the ages impearled;
And that song from afar
Has swept DER the world.
Every hearth is afame. and the Beautiful sing
In the homes of the nations that Jesus is King
We rejoice in the light,
And we echo the song
That comes down through the night
From the heavenly throng.
Ay! weshout to the lovely Evangel they brin 6,
And we greet in his cradle our Saviour and King.

BY FATHER A. j. RYAN.

Waileth woman, "Oh my God!
breaking heart in a broken breath
Ahopeless cry DER her heart-hope's DEATH
Can words catch the chords of the winds that wall
When loves last lily lies dead in the vale?
Let her alone
Under the rod
With the infinite moan
OF her soul for God.
All. song! you may echo the sound OF pain,
But you never may shine,
In verse or line, s 1ls
The pang of the heart that breaks in twain.
Waileth a woman.-Ohi my God! ssT
Wind-driyen waves with no hearts thatache,a
Why do your passionate pulses throb
No lips that speak, have ye souls that sob?
We carry the cross, We wear the crest,
We have our Ged, land We, your shore,
Whittier We rush. in the storm to rest
We have the heavens OF holy prayer
And we have Hope,-have We despair
For storm-roeked waves We break evermore,
Adown the shores and along the years.
IN the whitest Foam OF the saddest tears
And WEI as We, oh waves. gray waves
Drift over sea more deep and wide,
For we have sorrow and we have death,
And We have only the tempests breath,
But we have God when heat oppressed,
As calm and beautiful shore of rest
Oh waves! sad waves! how you flowed between
The crownless Prince and the exiled Queen?
Waileth woman! oh my God!
Her hopes are withered-her heart is crushed,
For the Love OF the love is cold and dead, :
The Joy OF her Joy hath forever fled
A starless and pitiless night hath rushed
On the Light OF her life,-and far away,
In an Afric wildl her poor dead child,
Lies the Heart of her heartfelt her alone
Under the rod
With her infinite moan
Oh! my God.
He was beautiful pure and brave,
The brightest grace
OF royal race =
Only his throne is but grave
! Is there fate in flames,
Is there doom in names +?
All! what did the cruel Zulu spears
Care for the Prince or his mothers tears?
What did the zulu's ruthless lance
Care for the Hope of the future France?
Crieth the Empress-s'Oh my son!"
He was her own and her only one,
She had nothing to give him but her love,
Twas kingdom enough on earth, Above
She gave him an infinite faith in God =
Let her cry her cry
Over her own and only one,
All the glory is gone-is gone,
Into her broken-hearted sigh.

And who can sound that depth of wee
Homeless.-throneless, crownless, now
She bows her sorrow-wreathed brow
