TIE AloHY BEFORE CnRIsrMAs.
Twas the night before Christmas, when al
through the house.
Not q cre&ture was stirring, not even mouse
Tho stockings were hung BY the chimney with
care.
In hopes that st. Nicholas would soon be there
The children were nestled all snug in thell
beds,
While visions Of sugar plums danced through
their heads;
And mamma in her 'kerchief and In my cap,
Fad just settled our brains for long Winters
nap
When out In the lawn there arose such clat-
ter.
Isprang from my bed 10 see what was the mat
ter;
Away to the window dew ike nash,
Tore open the shutters and threw mp the sash.
The moon IN the breast Of the new fallen snow,
Gave the lustre Of midday to objects below;
When, what % my wondering eye9 should ap-
pear.
But . miniature sleigh and tiny reindeer:
With q little old driver 20 lively and quick,
knew In amoment 1t must be old Nicx.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whipped. and lie shouted, and he called
tuCAAk Uy 0&@Ss-tH.
Nov Dasher! now Dancer! now Prancsr /
now Vixeni gf
On Cometl on Cupid on Donder! on Blixen!
To the top Of the porch! to the top Of the wall!
How dash away. dash away, dash away ALI"
Al the leaves before the wild hurricane ny,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to
the sky,
60 up to the house-top. the coursers they few,
With sleigh full Of toys-andS st Nicholas too;
knd then, In twinkling, 1 heard on the roof,
The prancing and paving of each little hoof.
SO drew In my head and was turning around,
Down the chimney st. Nicholas came with =
bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his
foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes
and SCOT;
bundle of toys he had flung on his back.
And he looked like . pedlar just opening his
pack;
His eyes. how they twinkled. his dimples, how
merry;
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a
cherry.
His droll title mouth was drawn up like bow,
and the beard his chin was AZ white as the
snow.
The stump OF pipe he held tight in his teeth.
AND the SmOt e, II encIrcled his head like
wreath.
He had y broad face. and little round belly,
Then shook when he laughed like a bowl full
of Ofjelly;
He was chubby and plump. right jolly old elf
And laue he'd when saw him. in spite Of my
self
wink of his eye and a twist OF his head,
aoon gave me to know had nothing to dread.
He spoke not word. but went straight to his
work,
And dIIed all the stockinss-then turned with
Jerk,
And lay ing his finger aside OF his nose,
Ard giving q nod. up the chimney he rose.
He sprang to his sleigh. TO his team gave .
whistle.
And away they all few lik tn down of this
tie,
But heard him exelaim, ere he drove out of
sight,
"a MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND TO ALL A
ooD-NIGHr!'' -7s2----1

"For me. my child; sh. no, not me,
The wolf u 1t our door,

And we are very poor"
And that poor mother bowed her heart
With woe and grief oppressed.
She kissed her boy and folded him
Still closer to her breast.

Mamma" said he, otis Christmas Eve;
Come let us happy be.
Don't talk Of shame. but live, mamma,
For God. yourself and me.
She knelt and prayed; God lent His ear,
And heard her earnest prayer;
And they were happy Christmas day
A Christian had been there.
o! ye whom God hath favord so,
Don't close your selfish door.
And shut your comforts up inside;
Go share them with the poor.
