The Hamlet by the Sea.

There is a little seaport town,
Whence long ago fleet of ships
Sped, white and gay, beyond
where dips
The dim horizon down and down.
Old men sit on the pier and gaze
With pipe in mouth and dull sur
mise,
And whisper 'thwart their blue
eyed haze:
"Sayl don't you see the sails up
rise?"
Mothers that maids were, also,
wait
To greet the vessels glad return
Yet vainly shall they watch and
yearn;
No tide brings ships, or tells their
fate.
Yet does the little port keep bright,
Having an atmosphere of pride
That such fair crafts from it took
flight,
The cliff-oertopping waves to ride
My heart, you are the little place
Close by the sea; your hopes, the
feet
That sailed forth to your buoyant
beat.
Homeward its course no more tC
trace.
Sometimes you fret, then grow con.
tent
To dream of those enchanted
things,
: Which to the gray, drear pas
i have lent
The spotless splendor of their wings

Charlie was riding.
1t first bucked the boy out of the
saddle on to its neck and then to

tened into the stirrup. Then it
started to run and at the same
time was kicking at the unfortunate
lad but fortunately both kicks miss
ed him and at that point in the

AS it is, Charlie escaped with a

Since the beginning of the extra
session Senator Aldrich has assert
ed on every occasion when there
was mention of an income tax that
his tariff bill would provide ample
revenue for the government. He
could hardly help knowing that his
bill increasing the rate of duty in
nearly every schedule, would de-
crease revenue upon customs. But
his purpose was to ward off the
danger of an income tax and he
now finds himself the engineer of a
tax on corporation dividends for
raising more revenue, of which he
strenuously denied the necessity a
little while ago. The Rhode Island
senator thus betrays himself as a
senator of mere articles, make
shifts and small expedients.-Quin-
