ished to see their first American gov

bad government with endless fuss

be reconciled to the change, so long
as the quiet man in plain clothes gives
them good government.

OF red, and green, and gold.
That dimmed the lights in the band

The spirit of Carnival bold
tloated down over the plaza
To greet the waiting throng,
Who had longed for the arrival.
And to help the good cause along.
She came in a burst of music,
Martial and lively, and gay,
She was met with joyous welcome
And we think she came to stay
The blithe spirit left her promise
VI Joyous days to come
When she would roam among us,
And make herself at home,
Providing, We WIZ help her
To make her visit gay.
But the boys must wear her buttons

THE LAST LEAF.

L saw hlIn once before.
AS he passed by the door;
And again
The pavement-stone resound
AS he tOtterS DER the ground
With his cane.
They say that in his prime,
Ere the pruning-knife of time,
Cut him down,
Not better man was found
BY the crier on his rounds
Through the town.
But now he walks the streets,
And he looks at all he meets
So forlorn;
And he shakes his feeble head,
That it seems as if he said,
They are gone
The messy marble rest
On the lips that he has pressed
In their bloom;
And the names he loved to hear
Have been carved for many a year
On the tomb.
My grandmamma has SAID
Poor old lady! she is dead
Long ago
That he had Roman nose,
And his cheeks were like rose
In the Snow.
But now his nose is thin
And it rests upon his chin
Like a staff;
And crook is in his back,
And melancholy crack
In his laugh.
l know it is a sin
For me to sit and grin
AT him here,
But the old three-cornered hat,
And the breeches,-and all that,
Are so queer!
And if 1 should live to be
The last leaf upon the tree
In the spring,
Let them smile, as do now.
At the old forsake nbough
Where 1 cling.
