I think of death as some delightful jour. ney That I shall take when all my tasks aro done ; Though life has given me a heaping measure of all best gifts, and many a dup of pleasure, Still bettor things await me farther on. This little earth is such a merry planet ; The (Reten002 beyond it so supreme ; I have no doubt that all the mighty spa°. es be6weon us and the stars are fill• ed with faces More beautiful than any artist's dream. I like to think that I shall yet behold them, When from this waiting -room my soul has soared ; Earth is a wayside station where we wander until Prem out the dark - nese yonder, Death swings his lantern and arise "all Mimed 1” I think death's train sweeps through the solar system, Passing suns and moons that dwarf our own ; And close beside us we shall fled our dearest, the spirit friends on ettrth we held the nearest, And close beside us God's great throne. • Whatever disappointments may befall m0, In plans or ptomaine fn this world of doubt ; I know that life at worst oan but delay me, but no malicious fate has power to stay me, From that grand journey on the Great Death Route. LEAVE OL LOG HOUSE STANDIN'. Nor a rafter or It beam shall be toohed by mortal hands 'Twould desecrate the spot whore the old log dwellin' stands There ain't a oraok nor cranny nor a ohinkin'they atm ohango, For all their high.feloobiuon this hull prairie range.

The children and the carpenters are white porin' there, you see : 011 1 They oan plan the new house if they leave the old to me ; And, husband, I'in a thinkin', and a thinkin' mighty etrong, That it's the old folies thab'e a Makin' the business end go 'long.

So leave the old house standin', Seth, ebo. So loavo the old house standfn', Seth, 13 ain't much in the way, .And I pan take my knitting and go down there any day And beside the old broad obit -ably I shall always seem to clear Your wllietlo in the ottreteed and your obeli a oomin' none, And the oreakin' of the cradle that my foot rooked to and fro, Oh I not for all the world, Seth, let the dear ole dwelling go.

"It's tide way, air, tebosi thirty years ago we had a baby, home, called Joe, named after me, For Joe's mamma, before elle came to die, asked me to name him that ar way, and I just did, you ewe. Small Joe, he was just three weeks old that day, When she just smiled end Linseed away, and me and Joe Wm left to help oath other on ; Me to keep the little fellow goin', 110 60 soothe my woe, He did it too, did Joe, he did a hese, 'Twos mighty Oomfortil' to watch him sleep, And coo, and smile, I seemed to see her smile When Joe ioohed glad, and then I kind o' didn't feel so sad a little while. And then Joe went ; I bad to go to town, And Joe, while I was gone crept off to drown, Fell in n dam ; and while I was down town I bought a toy To bring it home to give the boy, A woolly lamb, and when I got Lome tome fellow said, As kindly ns be could that Joe was doed—sly little Joe.

And bo.day's the first I cried since then, Cried like a baby, sir, aeethe sight o' men, but it ain't ne Why in the winder o' that shop there sat a woolly lamb just like Blab I gob for him ; And for moment my old heart felt glad, I kidder thought to see the little lad still at my side, And then remembeesalce came that neer again I'd gee him smile, or hear hie laugh, and then, why then I oried.

They crossed the r'...qf to mann tete 5 o'ciock train at Windsor, but Customs Officer Yearsley spied theie baggage piled up on the ti^x of rite cr'rriago wanted to know what it contained. Supplioations were unavailing, and the bridegroom finally got out to open up the valises, but in his nervousness he tipped them both over the side. They fell with a crash, burst open and littered the street for the epees of about 20 square yards with nightdresses, underwear, stockings and all manner of things that a lady would not wish to see thus rudely expoeed to the public gaze. The bridegroom grabbed the things wildly and stuffed them back into the valises, not oaring two °ante whether he mixed up his own clothing with that of his wife. A11 be wanted was to get away somehow from the grinning orowd. The windows and doors of Oullette Avenue were filled with amused faces, and the passengers on the ferry crowded to the Bide to see the fun. The litter on the street appeared to be suflioient to fill several valises, teed while the hapless bridegroom was trying to crowd it into two, the girls of the British. American hotel came out with bags of rice and a lob of old shoes with which they began to bombard the young couple. The customs officer was so busy watch- ing the packing of the valises that he did not know what was going on until he re. oeived a shower of rice in his faoe. "What—I" he yelled, but ono of the girls gave him a gentle tap on the head with an old shoe, whereupon he gob out of the way. They poured rias down the bride- groom's back and over the bride's head, and the groom fa desperation, grabbed the remainder of the clothing in hie hands and jumped into the rig and drove off.

The driver of a grocer's delivery wagon collided with a vehicle driven by a tin- smith, and while the gr000r's man was not to blame, he patiently bore a great deal of abuse from the other. Finally, when the tinnar threw snow in his face, the other pat down the linos and calmly said : "Have you rend what the different clergymen are saying about the non ex- istence of a plans of punishment 7" "Yea, T have 1" "And do yon believe there is a lake of fire and brimstone 7" "No, I don't ; and I want Ave dollars from you es damages."

The sleepy merchant pea to the wall. His wideawake neighbor thrives by keep- ing goods that are in damned, by adver- tieing what be hoe, and by never offering oustomors what he knows they do not w ant. Each season of the year brings its joys and sorrows, espe0ially the latter. With Spring comes the poetry fiend and house cleaning, with lack of stoves and plenty of carpet pounding : with Summer comes the piano thumper and the lawn mover ; with Autumn, potato digging and turnip pulling, with four inches of snow and frost ; and lastly, Winter comes when men must arm themselves with snow shovels, and citizens are naught in the ear with a snow ball from liberty -loving enemies and acquointanoee.
