dertaker's beside.-Green Msuntain Free
january 1.

Winter is come again. The sweet south west
Is aforgotton wind, and the strong earth
Has laid aside its mantle to be bound Z
By the frostfe 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 a thought.
Spring has rushing sound, and Summer sends
MANY sweet voices with it's odors out,
And Autumn rustleth its decaying robe
With complaining whisper. Winters dumb!
God made his ministry silent one, III
And he has given him foot of steel
And an unlovely aspect, and breath #
Sharp to the senses-and we know that lie
Tempereth well, and hath q meaning hid
Under the shadow of His hand. Look up;
And it shall be interpreted-Yourh 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 a season for the quiet thought, ..
And the still reckoning with thyself. The year
Gives back the spirits of it's dead, and time
Whispers the history of it's vanished hours;
And the heart, calling its affections up,
COunteth it's wasted ingots. Life stands still
And settles like fountain, and the eye
Sees clearly through it's depths, and noteth all
That stirred its troubled waters. It is well
That winter with the dying year should come

Winter Clothing for Children.

Every one must remark that favoite
article Of winter clothing for children is
a comforter swathed around the neck.
This is great error; the feet and wrists
are the proper members to keep warm
the face ana throat will harden to a
healthy Indifference to cold; but that
muff1er, exchanged for an extra pair of
thick socks, and knitted gloves, would
preserve a boy or girl really warm and
we'll. Bronchitis and sore Threats have
declined fifty per centum since the absurd
use of high collars and twice round neck
erchiefs went out of fashion; and ii the
poor would take better care OF their chill
dren's feet half the infantile morality
would disappear. It only costs trif1e to
put peice Of thick felt or cork into the
bottom of boot or shoe, but the differ
ence is often considerable between tina
and a Doctors bill with perhaps the un

THE DARKROOM BELL PUNCH.
New York Herald Richmond Telegram

New York Herald Richmond telegram
The returns of the Moffet system of liquor
taxation, embracing the whole State, and
covering the first fiscal year, has just been
made public. They show that the registers
and licenses combined only produce $S3,669
more than the old SYSTEM, a great disap-
pointment. It was claimed for tue registers
That they would yield at least 100000 per
annum. In many localities public opinion
has been against the law, aud In consequence
little real earnest effort has been made to en-
force it. Dealers have in many instances
neglected to ring the bell upon the sale of
drinks, and have not been reported because
their customers regarded the law as oppres-
sive, inquisitorial and uni ust. In Richmond,
where the court was certainly active enough
in prosecutions, it is conceded that only
about half of the drinks are now registered
for taxation that used to be when the regis
ter was first intro luced. This is more espe-
cially the case with small groggeries. Now,
40 some Offset to these diseouraglng symp-
tons it should be said that the law is sus-
ceptble of amendment that will increase its
efficiency, and that hioiieJ has better reg
lister than the one now In use, but as the
liquor dealers are c}amorous for repeal OF
| the law. and will undertake to prepare a bill
| that will raise more money by the simple IL
| cense system, it is doubtful if the Moffet
| plan will be- much longer continued. DIR.
| Moifet is leader of the readjusters. He is
| lust now in an awkward position. He would
| like to see his system q success, but it is the
policy of his party not to put money into
the State treasury. Between these conflict
ing interests he is thought to waver; and, in
the meantime, the enemies of the bell-punch,
relying upon the years results to prove it q
failure, are urgently demanding its repeal.

'By PROUD" said Mr.. vesey, 'you
