Changed Yes, will confess It, have changed;
do not love You in the old fond way;
am your friend still time has not esiranged
One kindly feeling of that vanished day.
But the sweet clamor that made life dream,
The rapture Ct that time, it, glad content,
Like visions of a vanished home they seem
And yet | cannot tell you when they went.
Why DO you gaze with such accusing eyes
Upon me, dear? Isit 80 very strange
Tha, hearts, like all things underneath God
skies
Should sometimes feel the influence ofclange?
The birds, the flowers. the foliage Of trees,
The stars which seem 30 fixed and 50 sub
lime,
Vast continents and the eternal seas
All these do change with ever changing time.
The face our mirror shows US year on year
l. not the same. Our dearest aim or need,
Our iightest thought or feeling, hope or fear
All. all. this law of alteration heed.
How can we ask the human heart to stay
Content with fancies of youths earliest
hours2
The year outgrows the violets Of May,
Aliho may be, it finds no fairer flowers
And life may hold no swectcr love than this,
Which lies 50 cold, 50 yoiceless aud 50 dumb,
" And will miss il, dear?' Why, ycs, we miss
The viOlets aiways--till the roses come.

IS SAT ly the fire on New Years Night,
And talked to a friend with great delight,
There suddenly came a rush and a rOar-
And as FASTENED to open the door,
I'm there came q motley throng.-
And they formed a procession very long
First came tlowergirl, fresh and fair.
And knew her at once by her graceful air
ind Immediately following in her wake,
Came the tambourine girl whom lcould dnct
mistake;
Her Disguise was good, but could tell
Twas a friend I've loved both long and we'll
Then "phantoms came with measured tread,
And they looked Ike chastity sheeted dead,
But knew by tn riial grasp Of the hand
They were both iuhab nnts Of our land.
An Indian maiden with stately mica
And glittering tOmahawk was seen
The Indian chief was fearful tO sec,
And he pointed his gun direct al me.
An old woman muttered, and rocked 70 and
fro.
But who was do not know.
4 Turkish lady was bonny Jean,
And near her stood the FAIRY Queen
4 silent nun, who is always Belle,
And peasant girl whose name could tell.
There were many more IN iritastic dress
Whose identity could not guc~s.
But wish them all. Witha heart sincere,
= bright and joyous and glad " New Year"

The Wheeling Register declared as follow.
few days ago: We venture the prediction
that the state Of West Virginia will never
recognize in any shape or form, the spurious
paper issued by the old State under the
name of Vest Virginia certificates, nor
agree to settle or contribute in any way 10
the debt Of Virginia upon any plan or basis
in wa.eh her liability or responsibility for
or connected with these certificates, is in
any shape to be saddled upon her" Com
menting on the Register's declaration the
Richmond Dispotcd says: That's The
truth plainly spoken. West Virginia does
not acknowledge that she owes any Of the
debt of the two States. Her offsets are not
such as would be considered good in law
ifa court were considering the matter, but
as State Judges for itself on such questions
the holders of West Virginia certificates
might as well charge them up to the profit
and-loss account, and give them TO the
trunkmakers."

Certainly you are. You not on

ests to care for, but your neighbours
also. Intelligent, aggressive, en-
terprising men, the leading spirits
in every community, could very
soon enhance the value of property
in their county from one to five dol
lars an acre by seeing that every
farmer was making the most of his
farm, cultivating it well, getting
ont of old ruts, and raising market
able crops, and more of them, by
intelligent industry, rather than by
blind usage.
1t would take time and labor, it's
true, but not more than is often
