We have made arrangements with
Dr. Robinson whereby we come in
possession Of his note book on his
travels in Europe. We have already
published letters written by him while
in the old country and they proved
very interesting to our readers and
were copied by other Journals. This
week we publish one on, the Egyptian
Part of the Berlin Museum" taken
from this note book. Hereafter We
expect to occasionally publish letters
selected from his book. We have
requested communications which we
thought would be of interest to our
readers from any source and would
be glad to receive them at any time.

yALEDICTORY.

Master marshall Moore:
You've heard, kind friends, have no doul
The story Of the hupless l0ut,
Who had the hard, unlucky fate
To come into the world too late!
In reference to his sad case,
"ris said his wGful birth took place
Upon the last day Of the year;
Added TO this the fact quite clear
That 1t was also the last day
or the last month-and people say,
Twas the last minutes dying stroke
or the clock, that on the midnight broke.
I must he something like this man;
For, though work the best Can.-
With faithful students have been classed,-
Yet, somehow, ain always last!
was not. therefore, much surprls'd.
When, ut last, 1t fell tome
10 speak the valedictory;
And, added to 1t was the sorrow,
That must neither steal nor borrow
But the said speech must emanate-
Origlnal-irom my own pate.
l knew Must perforce obey;
tried to think of what 10 say;
| racked my fancy, brain and mind,
Some fresh and new idea to find;
was ambitious to prepare
A speech containing something rare;
hoped to strike SOME stirring theme.
Pleasant and sweet rs some tnir dream;
But tits q thing SO hackneyed DER
BY orators whO've gone before,
That It, would take IL genius bright,
A valedictOry 10 write,
That would not be considered tame
Much less add lnstre TO a name.
Blood from a turnip can't be squeezed;
NV conscience at least have eHsed.
You know I've tried to do my best,
And here we'll let the matter rest.
For your attention so polite
My earnest thanks receive-good night!

The sword "a name of dread: yet when
Upon the freeman's thigh tits bound,
While Tor his altar and his hearth.
While for the land that gave him birth
The war-drums roll, the trumpets sound,
How sacred is 1t then!
Whenever, for the truth and right,
1t flashes In the van of fight
Whether in some wild mountain pass,
AS that where fell LeonidaS,-
Or on some sterile plain. and stern,
A MarStOn or BannOckburn,-

The SwitZer's Alps, gray Tyrol's hills
Or, as when sank the Armada's pride,

Is Liberty when men do stand
For justice and their native land
Then heaven bless the sword!

And leaves our doors ajar:
He pulls the buttons from our shirts,
And scatters pins afar:
That soueaking door will always squeak,
For, prithee, don't you see,
We leave the oiing to be done,
By Mr.. No-bod-ee.
