A HAMMOCK SONG.

Swaying, swaying, softly swaying in tho sea-
weed scented breeze,
Gazing Mt the sunlight, llinglng golden glances
through the trees,
Listening to the drowsy droning Of the never ,
tired bees.
There's some magic in the motion, sorno
strange spell we do not know,
A weird power it has to conjecture visions up
from long ago, -
By its swinging cradle motion, slowly, softly.
to and fro
All tue world of work and vision fa.es be-'
hind us, it is naught,
Clear before our charmed vision, Spanish
castles rise unsought,
And the shadow land is round us, and the
realm of dreamy thought
What is this strange power. that holds uss
=. IT'S some silent, subtle spell, ...,-.
Born of swoying; ever swaying, like the toll
-, ing OF a bell, .. .. ..., -
Or the rocking of the ocean, and the salty
seawecd smell
Lying lazily, We iihser in the land Of day :
dreams bright, 80.
Drinking deep from fancys fountain,
draughts Of quiet, calm delight, -.
Till tho eastward lengthcning shadows vard
us of the coming night -,
Still wo lingcr, scarcely needing how the
happy moments go, ,,-.g
What care we for time that passesl We arc
swinging to and fro,
With that magic cradle motion. swayinG,
swaying soft and slow.

proper enc, but thrc who oppose hiring ont

THE probability is that quite q number oi

this Il proper step for the reason Of the high

so, without cEtailing extra expense on those
who are studying the branches authorized BY
