o winter thou art not that haggard Lear,
With stormy beard and countenance Of woe,
Raving amain, or dumbly crouching low,
In hoary desolation Knocked with fear
To me thou art the white queen Of the year,
A stately virgin in her robes II snow,
With royal lilies crowned, and all aglow
With holy charms and gems celestial clear.
Nor dost thou come in barren majesty,
Thou hast thy dover Of sunbeams thrice

0HRISTMAs VI0LETs.
Andrew Lang.

Last night found the violets
You sent me once across the sea
From gardens that the winter frets,
In summer lands they came to me.
Still fragrant Of the English earth,
Still humid from the frozen dew,
To me they spoke OF Christmas mirth,
They spoke of England, spoke Of you.
The flowers are scentless, black and sere,
The perfume long has passed away;
The sea whose tides are year by year,
Is set between us, chill and gray.
But you have reached a MINDLESS age,
The haven of happy CLINE;
You do not dread the winters rage,
Although we missed the summertime.
And like the flowers breath over sea,
Across the gulf Of time and pain,
To night returns the memory
OF love that lived not all in vain.
-Harper's Magazine for December.
THE LIGHT THAT IS FELT.
John q. whittier.
A tender child OF summers three,
Seeking ner nttle Deu ~ niBnLi
Paused on the dark stair timidly.
"0h, Mother Take my hand, said she,
sand then the dark will all be light"
We older children grope our way
From dark behind to dark before
And only when our hands we lay,
Dear Lord, in Thine, the night is day
Aud there Is darkness neyermore.
Reach downward to the sunless days
Wherein our guides are blind as we,
And faith is small and hope delays
Take Thou the hands Of prayer we raise,
And let us feel the light Of Thee

There seems TO be no doubt that
serious effort Ia about to be made to Oper.
ate the elevated railroads aud the railway
on the Brooklyn bridge by electricity.
The owners Of the various patents have
combined so that the best features of all
patents are now available, and the pros
pest Ia that the work can Ee done more
chenply than at present. The advantages
TO the public will be very great, chief
amongst them being the radiance
Of the noise, smoke and
dust incident to running locomotives
through the streets. Another advantage
will be that the trains can be made
longer or shorter without loss, and that,
therefore, instead OF diminishing the
number Of trains at certain parts Of the
day, they will be % frequent IS ever at
such times but consist Of fewer cara.
