March 4.
Look forth, mine eyesi Behold the sight
Which pales all other days TO night
so brightly CLEAN the signs ofIoy,
ofpeace and plenty No alloy
Can throw its shadow on the street
Where valor, wealth, and wisdom meet
With beauty, mirth, and reverence sweet
To cast their homage at the feet
Ofhim we hail MS President
Streamers and banners bright and gay
with winds ofheaven joyous play,
And witness give TO land and sea
or freedoms gorgeous pageantry.
All thoughts, all energies are bent
ON making gladstone holiday.
For see, he comesl Make way, make wnyi
The conquerlng hero comesl
The laundering cannons. hfes and drums,
And all the instruments Of sound
That yield a note Of Joy are found,
To voice Americas glad song
Ofwelcome to her king.

MY GIRL.
AS said goodbye at the station,
In n little country town,

AS 1 aaid goodbye at the station,
In a little country town,
And kissed away the tear-drops,
While her hair fell bewitchlngiy down,
And she looked at me so sweetly
And said; "You tcH not forget"-
swore TO her ia be faithful.
And called her dear little pet.
Then the train bore me back to the city
To busily toll each day;
There WAS scarcely time to remember
My glrlso far away.
But when the day was ended,
And sat In silence alone,
Then thought OF the little daisy
Ishould claim some day as my own.
Three nights bore up brayely,
As thought Of the time TO come;
Three nights l tried TO be cheerful,
But was only silent and glum.
Aud then upon the fourth night
gave my moustache twirl,
Put on my killing necktie.
And--called on another girL

When once ngan the sound Of horses feet

While all the land In tears, In woe.

With Prayer and SKILL twin servitors of Love,
Ills faithful watchers nurse the nckering life,
Grappie the tyrant Death In constant strife.

Oh, what gladncss filled the sky
On that first bright dnyl
With what sadness do we sigh
Der eur loss to-day.
See the Avenue that then
Thronged with joyous crowdi
See the throngs are there again
Midst them pail and shroudi
What means this music then, 80 glad
That MULES now Its drum, and sad
And doleful requiem sounds? IT'S
The dead, returning from sea.
Refuse, mine eyes, refuse the sight
Can Nature and her skies be bright
On such n scene and day?
Yes, Nature and her skies but smile
To think his suiferlngs grlevous, vile.

We see an avenue more broad,

And there our monarch goes to greet

There is fish story charmlnal y

An old negro fisherman succeeded IN
hooking a drum Of huge size, the 9th
er end Of his line being fastened for
security to his ankle. He was pulled
into the water, an after terrific
struggle beneath the brine, both he
and the fish were drowneh The
moral Of the story is as follows:
They were washed ashore by the heaying
tide,
And the fishermen found them side by
side,
In common death and together bound
BY the line that crcIcd them round and
round,
SO looped and tangled together,
That their fate was cntanglci in dark

For the fish was hooked hard and fast by

And the dnrkic was assoca around the

And each had died bv the other
