with the runaway team, and after examining
the buggy found it was not demolished. The

was necessary. Mr.. Seabrook proposed to
resign his charge and go to Florida. His
congregation did not want to lose him, and
he was given leave Of absence for the win
ter, with the usual salury, and he accepted
their offer, and purse rendered him in ad-
diticn, and on Monday next viii go to Flori-
da, accompanied by his wife and son Willie,
in the hope of recovering his health.
Mr.. Seabrook's many friends here will re-
greet to learn of his misfortune, and be glad

his congregation.

How strange. dear one it must be now to dwell
Within world that knows no Christmastide,
You, who were wont 10 mark its coming well.
And hail the new horn King with heart thrown
wide.
You have no need to keep the feast each year,
You who have Christ's real presence every day
Can touch and see and feel Him ever near,
While we must worship in the olden way.
You have 10 need OF giving any gifts
To those blest ones who walk with You in white;
The fullness of their joy heneeforth uplifts
Them from all thought or wish for more delight.
l think you must be smiling at me. dear,
Such childish thoughts so childishly expressed;
But you have grown into another sphere
Above me quite, and entered into rest.
And am still within the lower grade
ofChrist's great school, and blunder painfully
About the tasks His gracious hand has laid
For me to learn, or else disdainfully
Push them aside and say l cannot learn,
Knowing the while, We all must learn TO spell
Before We read the mysteries We yearn,
The height and depth you comprehend 50 well.
And so / ink you Christmas keep each day,
with heart adoring. and with songs ofpraise;
If only you were not so far away
From us who love you. on this best of days.
The presents was wont to give you, dear,
Shall brighten up some life, by grief oppressed:
You have my love and need naught else that's here
For God has made you evermOre most blcst
So let the Christmas chimes their anthems ring,
And tender thoughts of Christ of Heaven and thee
Shall mingle with each carol that we sing
And thrill our hearts with something more than
glee
