With hope and fear unto the end,
We watch and wait, NJ friend with friend
And ere the hungry Past thall claim
Thy worthy deeds and hOnored DDne.

That thine were days Of hap iness;
Ard old and young with one accord
10 day thy elve.month reign applaud,
Blessed by early and later rain,
The harvest fields were rich y ith grain:
Far Forth, and sOuth, and west and east,
Provided for are man aud beast;
lndustry and toll we'll repaid.
The poor and needy richer made.
Wars cruel hand has been restrained;
The fallen raised released the chained;
Given to Freedoms friends n scope
Far wider than they Ger had hope
Waited to every land and sea
TidiDgs Of pace and charity.
Thus plea aantly, departing year.
We think and speak Of thy career.
And in thy last hour with thee sit
To cheer thee ere the spArk shall hit;
Praise thee for noble duties done,
Thy charities and victories won.
Not Of the days Of toll and strife.
That await the New Years life
Not OF the tumult and the din,
To keep the" rascals" out or In;
Nor how the eagle sOars and screams,
Whilsl thou art having I leasant dreams
For In midsummer'a sultry weather.
When politicians lash each other,
He must llsten to blame and praise,
Keep watch Ger every boom and erase:
NJ uoubt he'll with 10 end his days,
Ere the ides Of next November
Dawns upon his head, remember.
But hold Time strikes the midnight hour
Farewell Old Year Thy days and pOwe
For good and Ill are passed and over
Sleep with the thousands gone before.
Thanks for thy bounty, ace u cheer,
We welcome In the glad New Year.

left Arthur's Cabinet. His physician
here, and DR.. Hammond, CT New York
told him that he must either go tt

did not want to go to Europe, and
while he was puzzling over something
to do he went one day to the Congress

fell OH " Benton's Thirty Years View.
He says it came over him like a flash
that it would be n delightful work to
put his twenty years experience on
