When other flowers have closed their eyes The dandelion labors, And everlastlingiy it tries To overcome its neighbors, The bluegrass and the clover flee Before its competition; It has no social sympathy To check its fierce ambition, Although its harm Is something great, Its worthlessness sublime, It gets a lot of real estate By rooting all the time. So nerve and front and diligence Will surely take no far, It makes no speoial difference How no -account we are. --Newark Evening News. BURN. MoEwnw.-In Morris, on the 10th inst., to Mr. and Mrs, J.
