WE ARE LIKE CHILDREN.

Hethinks we do as fretfui children do,
Leaning their faces on the window pane.
To sigh the glass dim with their own breath's

And shut the sky and Landscape from their

And thus. alas since God the Maker drew
A mystic separation 'tvi1t th0ae twain.

justly. The Fourth district property has
until this year been. as a whole, assessed
for about fifty per cent. Of its value, and
the last assessment was raised by Prigge
to about seyenty-ive per cent. This has
has caused more objection than has
been raised in any other district, although
the valuations have always been not less
than seventy-fve per cent. In the a ggre-

more charitable man never lived. His
heart went out to the poor dumb brutes,
