Sleep, baby, sleep ; Eby mother dear Bends o'er thee in her love, And asks that God may shower on yon Hie blessings from above. She loves thee more than all the world, With all its stores of gold ; Her Dare for thee will never fail ; Her love will not grow cold. Her dearest wieb, her fondest hope, Is, as the years roll past, That each wi11 leave thee as it goes . More happy than the last ; And es year follows after year, And youth glides into age, That at the last the joys of heaven May end toy pilgrimage. Sleep, baby, sleep ; my hopes and fears, My prayers are all for thee ; My only wish, my only hope, Is—may'et thou happy be ; Happy while yet thy stepe shall tread Along the path of time, And happier when that path eball end In heaven's tearless oifine. WHEN FATHER CARVES THE DUCK. We all look on with anxious eyes, When father oarvae the dunk, And mother almost always sighs, When father carves the dunk ; Then all of us prepare to rise, And hold our bibs before our eyes And be prepared for some surprise, When father nerves the duok. He braces up and grabs a fork, Whene'er he carves a duok, And won't allow a soul to talk Until be'e carved the dank ; The fork is jabbed into the sides, Across the breaet the knife he elides, While every careful person hides From flying ebips of duck. The platter's always sore to slip, When father carves a duck, And how it makes the dishes skip i Potatoes fly amuck 1 The squash and cabbage leap in spaoe, We get some gravy on our face, And father mutters Hindoo grace Whene'er he carves a duck. We then have learned to walk around The .room and luok From off the l window eine and walla Our share of father's duok. While father growls and blowe and jaws, And eaya the knife was full of flaws, And mother laughs at him because He couldn't Darya a duok.

The rotate and laet session of the Eleventh Parliament of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario was opened at three o'clock on Wednesday afternoon by Hie Honor, Lieutenant Governor Kirkpatrick. His Honor, tvho was a000mpanied by Commander Law, Lieut. -Col, Otter and the officers of the Queen'e Own Grana. fliers and forty-eighth Highlanders, ar- rived promptly at three o'olook and at onoe proeeeded to the legislative chambers and delivered the speech flour the throne. The weather was flue and the attendance very Large, all the galleriee being crowded, a large number .of speotatore occupying seats on the floor of the chamber. The Lieutenant.Governor's escort consisted of a troop of the Royal Canadian Dragoons, under command of Lieut. Turnbull, and No. 8 company Royal Canadian Infantry under command. of Lieut. Laurie. Fol- lowing is the 588800 FROM THE THRONE. 1Sr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the Legisla. tive Assembly :— Itis with much pleasure that I ono more meet you assembled for the dispatch of the business of the Province and the legislation which the publio interest require. PROGRESS 01' TED Dermas. While in the last year the grain grope and the live stook trade have not been ao remunerative as in former years, I am pleased to know that the produote of our 'dairies are steadily inoreaeing, and by reason of the improved quality oomman d higher prices than at any time in reoent years. PROGRESS IN THE COUNTRY. The numerous agricultural organiza- tions whioh are aided by the Legislature have been inoreaeingly active ; the mem- bership of most of them has largely in. creased, and the demands for the reports published by the Department of Agri. culture is evidence of the interest taken in the good work in which these organ- izations are engaged. The attendance at the Agrioultural College is larger than at any time in its fetory ; the accommodation for the egutar course has been taxed to its tmost. The summer aurae for teachers roved a moat successful experiment and will be repeated during the present year, he large number in attendance at tbe penial dairy sohool has fully justified our aotion in providing increased a0com- odation. ONTARIO AT 1H0 GREAT FAIR. The signal emcees of the Province at be World's Columbian Exposition has en a matter of just pride and satisfaction one people. By our exhibits, of live oak, grain, fruit, honey, chee'e, min - rale, timber, natural history and eduoa- 'on, we have shown that Ontario posses- s great natant resources and in their evelopment has kept pace with wealthier nd more populous countries. - THD LUMBER MAD& ntinued active and the markets good uriog the early part of the last year, and htil the mometary stringency in the lifted States oaueed much depression in usinese in that country. Priam since en have not been so high nor the market active. Notwithstanding this the ceipts from woods and forests have, I m pleased to say, more than equalled e estimated revenue from that souse. NEW SETTLEMENTS. A considerable area of fertile laud has w been surveyed about Lake Tetnis- atningue, is easy of access and capable sustaining a large population, During e year a crown land agency has been tabliehed et Haileybury at the 'enthralld of the lake, and several townships ve been opened for Bale to actual set. re. There is no reason to hope that an portant settlement may soon be form - to take advantage of the great natural purees of this nothern portion of the evince. TRE NEW ASYLUM 800 TED INSANE. Satisfactory progreee has been made erection of the new buildinge at ookville intended for the Luther ao. mmodation of the steadily inoresing wakens, insane wakens, for whom previ- sion moat be made. It is expected that before the end of the present year the main building will be ready for occupa- tion. 1110 110050015,, LITTLE 01010. 1, n p y m be to st e t1 se d a 0o d u 17 b th so re a th no of th es en ba tle im ed res Pr is Br co of The not passed during the Met session of the Legislature for the prevention of cruelty and the better protection of obil- dren bas been favorably received and a gratifying disposition has been mani. fasted by the polios to take advantage of its provisions.

Boys should not consider it manly to use profane language. They ougbt not to hold others up to ridioule anywhere. They should not indulge their propen. city of playing tricks, They ought not to read dangerous books and papers. They ought not to interrupt others in their conversation. Neither ought they to deceive their teaobere or their parents. Boys ought not to smoke, for it injures their nervous system. Boys should not backbite others. It is mean to do so, Boys should have the greatest possible horror' of intoxicating drink. Boys should' shun evil companions as they would demons from below. Boys should ever bear in mind that God's eye is upon them always. Boys should continually struggle to overcome their special had habits. Boys, cultivate self.reepeot ; you are man ot the future.

P, P., gave 00 to an actor named Morrie, who had stranded at Calgary. Allan had almost forgotten the matter, when he was reminded of it a few weeks ago by being informed that $1,000 had been willed to bim by a party in New Orleans. The party in question was Mr. Morrie, who hadn't forgotten Allan's kindness, The latter's father: is employed at tbe parcel office of the Union Station et Toronto and he bas also five or six brothere in Toronto. Edward B. Goes, keeper of the two chimpanzees, Chicko and ,Johanna, at Central Park, New York, while feeding one of the brutes on Friday approached too neer the gage of the female, who thrust her paw through the bare, grasped his arm and throw him to the floor, His feet were near the cage 000npied by Chioko, trho immediately seized one of his feet, and, drawing it into the oege, began chewing it savagely, while Johan- na fearfully mangled the band . she had caught, and nearly strangled the unfor- tunate keeper by choking him. His groans were heard by some of the other keepers, who armed themselves with pitchforks and went to their comrade's rescue. The apes were driven off, but not before they had horribly bitten and mangled Gose' arm and leg. The second finger of his right band and the greet toe of his right foot have already been ampu- tated, and it is flared more fingers and toes will have to be taken off, He may even lose his life. Thome Farrell, of Smith's Falls, had a fearful experience during the recent big storm. Farrell wears two artificial lege, but when travelling usually goes in a sleigh drawn by a large dog. He left Carleton Place for Appleton shortly be. fore the storm began. He followed the 0. P. R. traok for some limo, but the Meals being very heavy with snow the dog finally gave out. When the 11:30 express came along be made signals of distrees and the train stopped a minute, but too far past the victim of the storm to be of eve to him, and his feeliuge un• der the oiroumetanoee—oat of reach of help, unable to help himself, and with the worst snowstorm of the season raging—pan only be Imagined.

Ow- ing to the great depth of snow he feared no trains would be able to pass. The beat of his body melted the snow around him and bis clothing froze solid.

Carder, Grand Recorder, Ancient Order of the United Workmen, for the year ending Dec. 31st, 1808, is now in the hands of the printer. The report shows that the Order has during the year continued to make rapid etridee in advance.
