Primitive Aerial NAVIGATION.

The cyclone season is at hand,
And very soon throughout the land
The natives will be treated to
AS fine breeze as ever blew,
And they will see, to their surprise,
Their household treasures in the skies.
A cloud no larger than a hand
Will very suddenly expand
Until it looks as large, We'll say,
AS some account you cannot pay,
And it's playful onward fight
VIII pick up everything in sight.
The barn before this master grip
Will from its firm foundations slip
And like a modern airship will
Go sailing over yonder hill
And, evoluting wide and neat,
Will settle in a field of wheat.
To follow in its train of course
Will be buggy and horse,
Some cattle and a drove of swine
And other critters IN that line
To come down scattered far and wide
AS with the cyclones whim they ride.
The cyclone is a playful sprite,
For things inanimate take fight
When it displays the busy sign
And sends it's forces down the line.
You never know what 1t will do,
So do not let it play with you.

Daybreak.

Daybreak.
The silvery CLEAN
Of the ripping stream
The listless eye caresses,
And the golden ray
OF the waking day
The joy of life confesses.
But the morning bright
Brings no delight,
Though the joys Of morn are throng1ng,
For they find me far
From the place you are,
And the day grows pale with longing.
