TIE OLD FRIENDS.

The old friends the old friends
We loved when we were young,
With sunshine on their faces,
And music on their conquest
The bees are in the almond flower,
The birds renew their strain;
But the old friends, once lost TO u.s.
Can never come again.
The old friends, the old friends!
Their brow is lined with care:
They've burrows In the faded cheek,
And silver In the hair;
But 10 me they are the old friends still,
In youth and bloom the same
AS when we drove the flying ball,
Or shouted in the game.
The old men, the old men,
How slow they creep along!
How naughtily We scotied at them
In days when we were young!
Their pressing ana their doing
Their pirate of times gone by,
Their shiver like an aspen leaf
II but breath went by.
But we, we are the old men now
Our blood Is faint and Chill;
We cannot leap the mighty brook.
Or climb the break-necl hill.
We wander down the shortest cuts,
Werest on stick or stiie,
And the young men half ashamed to laurh
Yet pass US with smile.
But the young men, the young men,
Their strength Is lair to see;
The straight back, and the springy stride,
The eFe as falcon free;
The shout above the frolic wind
AS up the hill they go;
But though so high above us now.
They soon shall be as low.
Q weary, weary drag the years
AS liz. draws near the end;
And sadly, sadly fall the tears

By means of an old deed exchanged be-
tween two of the very earliest merchan Is
of Boston, Z. L. Rider locates the site of
what many scholars believe to be the firAt
recorded Tree public school in America
supported by general taxation, namely,
on the south side of Cornhill, near Wasn-
ington street. The triangular block
bounded 10y Court street, Washington
and Cornnlll WAS originally devoted to
the following public beneficent purposes:
a town corn-Dln on Cornhiil, prison
or house OF correction, established i'll
1852; the school, the first meeting house,
occupying the commanding position at
the corner OF Dock Square and CornhilI,
and tavern where the Aines building
Now is. Opposite on Washington street
were placed the parsonage, the shop OF
Cogan, first merchant; the Ill st market
place, where the old Statehouse stands,
and the arinory. Near by were the great
dock, the powder magazine, the spring on
the hill above. the aqueduct, the great
cisteru and other safeguards against ire,
tie town bell, the town clock, the great
Indian cemetery, only a lew steps away
from the earliest burial place of the
whites; the town house, the Legislature,
the criminal aud civil courts, and the
Marshal.
1he Westinghouse having been
planted i'll 1852, Cornnill became one of
the very earliest Streets of Boston. Start
ing from the site of the meeting house is
Washington street, the first great thor
oughIare into the interior. His conclu-
sion is strengthened by the fact that
there are III the neighborhood picturesque
old alIeyways, VIGOROUSLY crooked
streets. anu Ten sO-called public squares
Just above are the three hills, Penn berton,
Nit. Vernon and Beacon.
Here also is fremont Row, where
lived Governor Nane, Governor Belling-
ham, Governor Itndicott, the second
schoolmaster of Boston; the Rev. John
Cotton, teacher of the church; his son,
Seaborn, aud John Hull, the mint
master. Here fremont street begins,
another great but newer thoroughfare.
The newer Shawmut, on a hill overlook
ing the valley and the neighboring
ocean, was begun by the whites on the
spot where the red men left off.

lost to the Treasury by a failure
to provide for the collection of

they did. What were the circum-
stances under which this was
done =? With a depleted treas
ury, with millions of able-bodied
Americans begging for work
that they might earn bread in
stead of begging for it, these
men, out of pure humanity, ask
ed the congress to give relief by
issuing legal tender notes-not
interest bearing bonds like the
Republican party chooses to
burden our people with-and use
them in some field so as to give
work instead of jails and dunge-
ons to the poor. We were not
surprised to see our Republican
friends frown down the spirit of
of relief for those who were the
victims of their despicable legis-
lation. Every one, of their rec
ords, would naturally do that
way. But nevertheless it did
not make their false representa-
tons and claims en- the stump
less willfully vicious nor make
honorable men esteem them any
more-and it gained to the Pop
ulist party many votes, and if
they will keep on another cam
paign it will carry the nation.
But still the Republicans keep
up the cry that they, as a party,
will restore silver. Satan will
restore the unkept precepts of
the meek Nazarene sooner than
they will restore silver. So it
matters not to a party who really
seek and work for silver what
man, who will stay with that
party, is elected United States
