The snow-birds circle far across the moor
The red sun glimmers thro' the leafIess
trees:
And mournfully around The old-time door
way
The winter wind means solemn fantasies.
The darkness falls around, but now, ah!
never
Is heard the cheerful sound of festive
strain;
Only the bleak wind wanders there for
ever,
Only the shadows gloom each window
pane.
Snow drifted lies the pathway to the por-
tal
Each lingering trace of bloom is covered
DER;
And never comes the footstep of mortal
To beat pathway to The old-time door.
But here, my memory like a spirit hovers,
solemn shade among the shadow
peers;
And teuderly with magic art uncovers
The faded leaves of long departed years.
The cheerful smiles that once were kind
and sweet; s
The cricket chrps from old devoted places,
The snow-bound pathway bears the
track of feet
Dear happy visions, far away persuing
In cloudy-dreams, the phantom steps of
Time,
Like pensive ghosts that haunt some
faVorte ruin
Still sweet with memories of some olden
cline.

From the Philadelphia Record.
The onward march of building progress
has unearthed many secrets connected
with the oid-time mansions of this city
The latest to yield up its secrets TO the
world is the old Hamilton mansion, which
has buffeted the storms of a century and
half in Woodlands cemetery. In tear
ing down some of the side walls the de
stroyers discovered several ingeniously
concealed stairways. These led from Sc
cret panels on the ground floor to rooms
on the second and third stories. Another
secret stairway leads 10 blind rooms,
which also had a secret existence. Why
these rooms We're built there is much
doubt. II is pretty we'll settled that Will
lam Hamilton, who bought the grounds
and mansion in 1747, had these secret
stairways arranged so that he could escape
if became necessary He was at one
time resting under the charge of high
treason, and the times about the begin
mig OF the revolution were anything but
quiet. The Hamilton mansion is by no
means the only house with these odd re-
treats. The old Penn house in the zoolog-
icai gardens is eull of secret passages and
stalrWays There are passageways in that
old mouse that no one living to-day can
tell the one-time utility Of If people pass
ed through them ii must have been done
by Aylng down and crawling along, for
II would admit of progress in no other
way.

the American sentinel who was guarding

was some time before the Filipino could

took some time to grasp what had been
done, but you can imagine my surprise
when he handed his gun to the Spanish
officer and caught the native by the nape
of his neck and the seat of his trousers,
and pitched him off the bridge into the

from the Spanish officer and began pacing
