SATURDAY EVENING, DEC. q
THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS.

THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS
Twas the night before Christmas, when
all through the house
Not creature was stirring, not even
mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chin
Eey with care.
In hopes that ST. Nicholas soon woulc
be there;
The children were nestled all snug IL
their beds,
While visions of sugar plums danced il
their heads:
and mamma in her 'kerchief, and in
my cap,
lad lust settled our brains for long
winters nap
When out on the lawn there arose such
4 elatter,,
{ sprang from the bed to see what was
the matter.
AWAY to the window I flew like flash
Tore open the shutters and threw up the
sash. -
The moon on the breast of the new-fallcr
snow
AVE the lustre Of midday to objects
below,
When, what to my wondering eyes
sut miniature sleigh and eight tiny
reindeer,
With little old driver so lively ano
quick,
knew in moment it mnst be St Nick
lore rapid tnan eagles his coursers they
came, ,
md he whistled and shouted and called
them by name:
Now, Dasher. now. Dancer. now, Fran
Ger. and Vixen.
IL Comet! on Cupid! on Dunder and
Bitten!
10 the top of the porch! to the top of the
wall!
Now dash away, dash away, dash away
all!i
AS dry leaves that before the wild hur-
ricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount
to the sky,
So up to the house-top the coursers they
flew,
With the sleigh full OF toys, and ST.
Nicholas, too;
lnd then in y tWinkling, heard on lhe
roof
The prancing and paving of each little
hoof
IS drew in my head, and was turning
around,
Down the chimney st. Nicholas came
with Il bound.
He was dressed all in fur. from his head
10 his foot,
And his clothes were all furnished with
ashes and SCOT;
A bundle Of toys he had flung on his
back.
And he looked like pcddler just open
ing his pack. -
His eyes-how they twinkled; MS diin-
pes-how merry.
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like
cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like
a bow,
And the beard of his chin wss rs white
rs the snow;
The stump ola pipe he held tight in his
teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like
wreath;
He had !, broad face and little round
belly.
That shook when he laughed like bowl
full Of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, right jolly
old elf,
And laughed when l saw him, III spite
ofmyself.
A wink OF his eve anda twist ofhis head,
Soon gave me to know had nothlnS 10
dread;
He spoke not word, but went stniiShI
10 his work,
And filled all the stockings, then turned
with jerk,
And laying his finger aside Of his nose,
And giving nod. up the chimney he
rose.
He sprsug to his sleigh, TO his team gave
whistle,
And away they all flew like the dawn OF
Il thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove
out of sight, :,
Happy Christmas to all and to all a
goodnight"
