FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
The impatient Hen.


This is the tale of queer old hen
That sat on eggs exactly ten.
she made her nest with pride and care,
ANA weather foul aud weather fair,
\ GU always found her at her post,
Tor patience was her daily boast.
Alas how oft it is our iot
10 brag of what we havn got
rms Will apply to hens, and men,
And boys and girls.
Days passed, and when
The sun began 10 warmer grow,
The grass and leaves began to show
Their twinkiing green on hill and vale;
w hen sweet aud pleasant was the gale,
hi queer old hen began 70 loug
To Join once more the noisy throng
OF idle gossips-hnlf "A scolt-
That strutted by the old barn door.
80, dear o, dear! here I am tied
A weary lot is mine, she sighed.
''No CLEAN of pleasure do ! catch
Why don't these tiresome chickens hatch
1t worries me in heart and legs,
To set SO long upon these eggs,
I'm sick of piniug here at home;
o chicks, chicks, chicks, why don'tye Gomez
Your little houses white aud warm,
I've sheltered from the angry storm.
There's Mother Dominique next door,
Her darlings number twentv-fOur,
And they 've been out a week or more;
Aud now she wanders at her ease,
As proud aud happy as you please.
So stir your piuky, little pegs,
Ny yellow bills come out aud walk
Or else I'll doubtnly eggs are eggs,
Aud think they are but Jumps of chalk.
Then something rash and sad befell;
This old hen peclcd each brittle shell,
And not so wonderful TO tell,
Her treatment, which was very rude,
Killed on the spot her tiny brood
Aud now despised by fowls and men,
She lives a broken-hearted hen.
This is the moral of my lay
To reap success in work or play,
Why spoil what ever you've begun,
Through eageruess 60 have it done.
Remember poor Dame Partlet's fate!
Don't be impatient learn to wait

ACCIDENT ON THE CANADIAN PACIFIC
A Train Derailed and Set on Fire-Sufferings
Of Travellers in Desolate Country.

TORONTO, Dec 7.-Through passengers east
from Winnipeg, arriving here last night by the
Canadian Pacific road, brought details of ter
rible railway accident that happened to the train
by which they were travelling on Friday last
The train was running at fair rate of speed
early in the morning and upon nearing Ludbury
junction, east of Port Arthur, rail which had
become loosened on the ties in some manner
spread, causing the train to leave the track
After running short distance. the train was
thrown down steep embankment. The stoves,
being overturned, set fire to all the cars, most of
which were we'll filled with passengers,
many of whom were asleep at tho time. All
the passengers escaped with their lives,
although many were injured, and somo very se-
riously, if not fatally, burned. All the cars
rolled down the embankment, and the whole
