Already in the frozen snow
A lonely grave Is made for thee;
The winds are chanting dirges low,
Upon the land and on the sea.
Old year, thou vert a friend to some
To some thou vert of worth untold,
Thy days were blessings, every one,
More precious far than shining gold;
But unto others thou foe
Did prove thysclf-an enemy,
Relentless as the chains Of woe
As ruthless as maddened sea.
Some will rejoice to know thee dead,
Others will mourn thee as q friend:
Some will look back on thee with dread,
Others their praises to thee lend;
neither offer praise nor blame,
Old Year, for what you brought to me,
For unto me both JOY and pain,
Your active hands gave lavishly.
Thy solemn death hour draws a-nigh-
And bark! hear thy funeral knell
Slow pealing through the darkened Sky
Farewell Old Year-fareweil, FAREWELL
HAIL TO THE NEW
Hail. hail to theei o virgin year!
Not yet days length on thy throne
Thou with the merry eyes and clear
And joyous voice Of dulcet tone;
Hail. Hail to thee. thou strong Of limb;
Our praise is thine. o youthful king,
For thou art pure of woe and sin,
Thy young hands yet but blessings bring.
. The monarch who is laid away
Within the cataoomb Of years
Was harsh and ruthless In his day
Seemed less to love our joys than tears;
We look for blessings manifold,
New Year, from thy pure. sinless hand;
We trust thy heart will ne'er grow cold
Toward us-and our native land.
Bring healing to the hearts now sore
From wounds the cruel Old Year made;
The vail Of peacefulness draw DER
The woes at each heart-threshold laid;
We can not love tyrant kingi
Our hearts refuse to loyal be
TO one who takes delight to fling
Upon our hearts keen miseryl
Be kind to us-that We may say,
When comes the time for thee to 60:
N'Oh darling year, We grieve to-day,
Because We oH have loved thee sol"

more than his lips could utter.

his friends advice, and he was pro-
ceeding to convert the bit of paper into
a lighter, when his eyes became fixed,
as though fascinated, on the delicate
tracery thereon.
