UNPOPULAR LECTURES.
BY YUBA DAM.
TO THE YOUNG LADIES.
The London Times.—It is stated that this
leading journal of the world circulates about
sixty thousand copies daily, a number largely
exceeded, we believe by at least one Ameri
can daily. It was established January 1st,
1785, by John Walter; in 1808, his son, John
Walter, Jr., succeeded to the management,
and in 1837 he in turn was followed by his
son, John Walter, the third, the present pub
Usher. The Times has secured its immense
influence by literary merit, nccuracy and en
terprise, and now confines itself to business,
following, instead of leading, public senti
ment. It yields its proprietors a' net profit
of about $225,000 a year. Its present editor
is John Delane, who has associated
with him Mowbray Morris, the business
manager. Both of these gentlemen are
interested in the proprietorship of the
paper. Mr. Delane, who is really the chief of
the concern, goes much into society, where he
is generally received. It is said of him, in
tht fashionable world, that these drawing
room influences have their effect upon him,
and that the Times deals more leniently now
with the sins and follies of uppcr-tcr.dom
than in former days, when the editor could
lc3e nothing by an honest independence. Mr.
Delane was always in the habit, during the
life of Lord Palmerston, when matters of im
portance were before the Cabinet, of visiting
him every night when he was in town, for the
purpose of obtaining from him confidential
information as to the probable course of the
government. This enabled the Times to give
to public sentiment, apparently, the lead,
while, in fact, it was but following a course
already laid down. It has been, in truth, of
late years, the government organ. Besides a
host of reporters, there are numerous depart
ments, with n sub-editor at the head of each.
In addressing the ladies on this occasion, I
shall not vary the practice of old men, in se
lecting the young, fashionable (f) and giddy.
It is a delicate task to criticise a class who, by
universal consent, have a carte blanche to do
as they please. The ladies constitute a very
important segment of our social circle. To
be candid, I do not see how we could get
along without them. True, we should have
whisky and tobacco left, but the great lack
that was so early, felt in the Garden ot Eden
would make this world the reverse of a Para
dise. My dear girls, I admit, in the outset,
that you arc beautiful, bewitching and
charming, but you are monstrous silly.—
You render yourselves ridiculous by go
ing crazy about every new fashion, no
mutter how foolish or unbecoming, so it
is supposed to be French. It is no small
compliment to your natural loveliness that
you arc attractive in spite of the hideous ob
jects with which you bedeck your heads; in
spite of monkey jackets and trailing sjdrts,
nnd even in spite of the nauseous compounds
with which you so perscvcringly strive to
spoil your complexions.
And here let me mention a noticeable pe
culiarity of the Lexington young ladies who
affect the extreme fashions. They arc very
fashionable, or at least attempt to be. If
large skirts are in vogue, they seem to think
that the larger they are, the more fashionable
they must be, and so on ad nauseam. Tak
ing this fact in connection with the well known
fact that fashions do not develop themselves,
so far west, until at least a year after they
have gone out of date in Paris and New
York, it must be admitted that an extremely
fashionable dressed belle of Lexington pre
sents a beautiful caricature of one year old
Paris fashion.
Moreover, it provokes your amiable speak
er to see ladies, of whom every American
might be proud, blindly following the fash
ions of those they are so well qualified by na
ture nnd tlicir attainments to lead. Girls,why
will you allow foreign women of questionable
reputation, to dictate to you what you shall
wear nnd how you shall wear it ? Why, don’t
you know that you are absolute slaves to
fahion ? It lays burdens upon you, griev-
Vvto be borne. This was literally so m the
^'if bustles. Now, it is taxing your com-
tll „, —or the lack of it—in a manner

Among certain tribes of Indians tlu

on the street, with no head attached, and
concealing it ns well as I could under a great
coat, I carried it to a place of safety, and
there dissected it. The first covering was a

of nature, had fallen to the ground.

Waterfall waa there my countrymen!
And those long skirts! My goodness, girls,
liow can you stand them? Do you think
them graceful when trailing ? If so, what
arc they on a crossing, when gathered up in
a wad above your feet, like you were going
to sit down ? But I will not quarrel with
you about your long skirts, as I do not have
to buy them. If you can stand them, I can;
but when I meet you on a rainy day, it gives
me a feeling of self-esteem to know that I am
walking a street swept by beauty and fash
ion, yet blended with a feeling of sadness, to
reflect that thc six inches of that fair sweeper
that comes in contact with mud is enveloped
in a plaster of sticky mud.
But your outward adornment is not thc
only effects of false taste and parient fash
ions. It affects your minds. Your gait, your
conversation, and the glance which you flash
from your eyes, all have theatrical air. It.is
observant in your behavior upon thc
streets. Your loud talking is evidently in
tended for all cars in sight; your conversa
tion with your escort can readily be heard
across the street, so none of your smart say
ings are lost. You keep up a constant gig
gle when you attempt to converse ; two gig
gles for each word, with an occasional screech
for emphasis. Your conversation might bo
called thc bantering style, supposed to be be
witching. Your efforts, to appear “gay and
festive,” impart to you a “fast” trait, Jwhicli
every lady should avoid. You are too gid
dy, ore wholly impatient of restraint. You
regard your mother as an old fogy, and break
away from her control at thc earliest possible
moment You evidently regard life os a
grand frolic, to be taken ami enjoyed at a
high pitch of hilarity. You give no serious
reflection to anytLing.
Marriage—thc most serious step in your
life—you treat os a good joke. Most mar
riages, now-a-days, grow out of a jest, or a
spirit of contradiction. I do not believe you
give thc subject as much serious attention as
you bestow upon the last new style of bon
nets. Young lady meets young man with
bob-tailed coat at pic-nic. Young man makes
funny jokes about the weather. Young lady
giggles. Young man inquires of friend who
she is, and says she is devilish pretty, and
knows a thing or two about wit. Friend
tells young lady, who sets young bob-tail
down as a good judge of beauty. An ac
quaintance follows, and if the young man is
worthless enough to enlist the opposition'of
young lady’s parents, thc match is inevitable.
The old fashioned Alonzo and Melissa love
sensation seems to have gone entirely out of
date. Perhaps it is best, for where are the
modest and irresistible traits of female char
acter that used to inspire it. Left behind
this fast age 1 A great deal that passes for
love now is nothing but indigestion, caused
by tight lacing.
Young ladies, for thc sake of the next gen
eration, and for your own sake, hold fast to
your womanly instincts and cherish ,thcm as
you would a jewel. It is these that made
j’ou adorable, angelic and sought after. The
tyrant, Fashion, has laid violent hold upon
them, and would wrest them from you. Do
not give them up, for believe me, they arc
the true fountain from which must flow all
thc pure happiness destined for you. Life is
a serious business for all, and often both se
rious and sad for your sex. On entering se
riously upon its journey, frivolity and fashion
will avail you nothing, but you will require
the. modest worth and trusting confidence
which subdues the rougher nature of the
rougher sex.
LOSS OF STEAMER ASHER AYRES.
DESTRUCTION OF 1023 BALES COTTON
FIVE OR SIX LIVES LOST—LOSS $275,000.
With much regret we have to announce the
total destruction of the fine new steamer
Asher Ayres, on her first down trip from
Hawkinsville to Savannah. The steamer,
under command of Capt Taylor, left Haw-
kinsvillc on Saturday, the 6th inst, with a
heavy load of Cotton—1023 bales—which,
with the exception of 175 bales in the hold,
was on deck, well covered up with sails and
tarpaulins., She had also ten white passen
gera and a few negroes. On Tuesday after
noon, about one o’clock, fire was discovered
among the cotton on deck, and in a few mo
ments the boat"Was Wrapped BY flames. The
passsengera and crew, with the exception of
some five or six negroes, were saved.
The fire occurred when the boat was half a
mile below a place called “HalfMoon Bluff,”
about midway between Hawkinsville and Da
rien, on the Altamabaa river. Thc boat and
cargo, it is thought, will prove a total loss.
The steamer cost $60,000, and was insured for
$50,000. Most of the cotton was insured.—
The following is a list of shippers,as far as we
were able to get them:
Asher Ayers, 594 bales—insured.
J. W. Fears it Co., 74 bales—insured.
J, II. Anderson & Son, 38 bales—insured.
W. H. Green, 91 bales—insured.
The balance of the amount was owned by
parties here and at Ilawkenvillc, whose
names we could not get
Nor could we obtain a list of thc passen
gers; though we learned the names of thc three
ladies on board to bo Mrs. Huger, Mrs. and
Miss Warren.
Soum $25,000 insurance on the cotton was
effected in the companies represented by
Messrs. E. C. Grannis and Toby & Ogden.

streets but these are not the poorof Ireland
they ere the gentry, tlie quality. None of
theinlustrious middle class or thriving me
chanics are more likely to, be seen than Brian
Borue himself to appear from the golden age.
I am speaking of the common laborers with
out trales. who form far the greater mass of
thc population, and earn their living by
planting or harvesting in the surrounding
country, or by working on the roads, break
ing stoics or the like, and of these I am safe
ly within bounds when I say that in Kilkenny
five-sixtis o f them are at present
without any employment whatsoever, or
likely tc obtain any during the winter. Who
can wander that the workhouse is such a
conspicuous object in the town, or that poor
rates run so high. As thc people say, “the
heart of the country was broke by the fam
ine,” anc since the year 1848 the stream of
emigration lias been constantly drawing away
thc boneand sinews of the country. None
stay that can get away. This year the emi
gration vas larger than that of lai, last year
than that of the year before and n»w an end
has come to the war thc great bigbear of
the prie^hood, who have for some rears been
making considerable effort to restrain the
tide of emigration, which lias a diminishing
effect onrheir authority and their—fees, the
exodus qf all who arc not prisoners in the
workliotae is likely to be final and complete.
Tbc butdiers, the bakers, lodging louse keep

fallen oft’so of late years, that wiere as for
merly the.’ were comfortable am? able to lay
by something for a marriage potion for their
daughters, now they can barely Ive, and they
aregpim*too.
Of coupe I speak in broad terns, but hold
upon tliejioil thc people have rone. As the
leases have fallen in from year t> year, they
have been made shorter, somet^c-s of only a
twelve mqitli, and the land “set”’»t. higher
rates, freetuentlv at £3 per acre ajiccs, which
the most ski Iful agriculture and iBe of capi
tal could ac t extract, from the m?st generous
soil. A con rention of Irish mentbers of Par
liament, inc uding Mr. O’Donojjnuc, has late
ly’ finished s tting in Dublin, and published a
set of rcsoln ions, in which tliry recommend
longer lease: and greater outlay on the part
of the landh -ds and deprecatiig rack rents
and eviction . “Excellent goal,” and doubt
less these gc tlcmcn like many others in Ire
land, are int Uigcnt and good* landlords, and
sincerely des rous to better the condition of
the larmcrs a ul actual toilers of thc soil, but
they might 1 ive spared their breath and pa
per. The qr ation resolves itself into one of
simple profit ind loss. Ireland is one of the
finest grazin’ countries in the world, and
owing to tli increased facilities of railroads
and steam i ivigation the English market
is brought so near that cattle have risen ex
ceedingly in value within thc last twenty
years, a goo cow being at present worth
from $125 t> :150, or as thc Saturday Review
very neatly ] uts it in a recent; article on
“ Fenianism aid the Cattle Plague” of much
more value than any living Irish laborer can
he supposed 11 be in the home market. It is
therefore for lie interest of the landed pro
prietors to rai e sheep instead of men, and so
the South of I eland, as far as my observation
goes, is gnutii; Uy assuming thc conditions of
one huge graz ng farm. It is hard to take
so desponding a view of the state of Ireland
in such sweep ng terms, hut such seems thc
inevitalilcteiucncy of events. As for manu
factories in tie Smith of Ireland it is too well
known to require mention that there are none
and never wire of the slightest influence in
bettering thfeondition of the people. Even
were there n English protective tariffs the
gentry wouU consider it degrading to engage
in any such tulgar, time destroying occupa
tion, besides lams and mills would ruin the
saimon fishing. And this contempt of labor
and love of sjort is not the only point of re-
semblaiice between them and our "misguided
Southern bretireu.”
FENIANISM.
the exclusion of all the other heirs; and that,
even when these inhuman statutes were abol
ished, an Irish parliament assisted English
landlords to maintain^ a system of land laws
in opposition to the habits of the English
people and the requirements of English socie
ty, and that the Catholic church, "embracing
a small minority of English people, was made
the established church of England, whilst
Scotland was permitted to have her own es
tablished ; perhaps it would not be necessary
for a newspaper to inform any Englishman
what the “wrongs” of England were, nor
would he consider it a proof that no such
wrongs existed because Englishmen were per
mitted to practice at the Irish bar, and by
the force of their superior genius rotee to the
highest positions.
England is the greatest of modern nations;
but she would be greater still'if she would
liberalize her policy towards Ireland in con
formity with the spirit of thc age, and place
her on an equality with Scotland. When she
docs that we slmil hear no more of “Irish
wrongs,” and this island, which is now a vul
nerable spot in her power to resist invasion,
will become an impregnable rampart of
defense.

The Labor Question Solved in Arka.,
Thc large Arkansas planters along the M
sissippi river, have at length solved the labor
problem as far os they arc concerned. Here
is tbc way it was done, as narrated in a letter
from-that section:
Lnbor is good-natured, but very trifling.—
Thc freedman is for frolic and fun; he quits
work on Friday afternoon, goes to Memphis,
spends his money, gets demoralized, and gets
back on Mondy night. Two or three days are
lost t6 the work every week. What is the
use of this worse than idle frolic ? The ne
cessity ol this has been felt in many cases
that many remedies have been proposed, and
at last Col. Dixon, a large planter, lias solved
the problem—cut thc gordian knot. He
went to New York, and returned with one
hundred and fifty sturdy Germans, with their
vrows and families. The experiment pleased
so well that Malone, another large planter,
went to New York last week for a fresh sup-
ily of thc same sort for his plantation.—
Vith such competition Sambo must compete
or leave the labor market to the frugal and
industrious Saxon. These Germans bring
their families, which are the best pledges of
their good behavior.
A Glimpse at Ireland as She Is.
IA correspondent of the Boston Post writing
on the 15th December, from Kilkenny—the
scene of the celebrated contest between the
felines—says of the place and people:
“As in all Irish towns around the’ neuclcus
of a few streets of decent shops and residen
ces, lie the wretched suburbs, narrow lanes of
dilapidated stone houses and leaky cabins,
where the red legged women and half naked
children swarm up and down on the muddy
pavement, and tlio unemployed strength of
manhood can have a superabundance ol lei
sure to mediate evil as it broods over the cold
brazier and potatoclcss dresser. The want of
employment and consequent poverty and des
titution is far more apparent and shocking in
Kilkenny than in Cork and Waterford, who
arc kept alive by the export trade,
although that is solely employed in convey
ing apparently every eatable tiling in the
country to fill the bellies of the workingmen
of other countries where Mother Earth is not
half so bountiful as in starving Ireland.
There seemed to me to be an almost absolute
dearth of every kind of employment in Kil
kenny. No manufactories of any description,
save the everlasting poison-brewing distillery,
or a few flour mills. The harvest is over,
and the planting season too long to wait for
by those whose wages, when fully employed,
if they have, as all Irishmen have, from half
to a whole dozen months in each family, be
side that of the actual bread winner, are
barely sufficient to allow the slightest verge
from actual starvation; and now through the
cold and wet barefooted ragged women and
children, whose husbands or fathers can get
no work, are traversing the courtly-side for
miles away from their homes, begging of the
farmers bits of cold potatoes or a cup ot sour
milk, or gathering bits of dried sticks from
the hedges by the roadside, with which they
return at night, the actual head of thc house re
maining at home in enforced idleness, or “sliu
geing” about thc streets with uneasy sliiftings
of his shoulders beneath his fettered oil
coat, or leaning dejectedly over the half
door of his cabin in moody conversation with
a neighbor as miserable as himself, of whis
pered curses on the English Government, and
commiseration for the Fenian prisoners, who
arc having thc dear glory of martyrdom and
sympathy at present, his greatest honor the
work-house, and thc fondest dream of liis
ambition “Amcriky.” This is a gloomy pic
ture to paint, bat it is true without exaggera
tion. Not that I mean to say that Kilkenny
is a city of beggars, or that it was like Char-
the siege. Fine shops are
Kilkenny, text to bloody Tipperary, has
alwaj’s been lonsidered, and doubtless has
merited, tbe imputation of the most insurrec
tionary and (angcrous counties in Ireland,
and though tie minds of most sensible peo
ple are madeiuto Utter improbability of any
Fenian outbrak at present, Lord Wodehouse
is evidently by no means convinced, and Kil-
kenney is occipied by a small arraj’ of consta

In t*-» city thee is a perfect swarm of “peel
ers dev; swee j them,” and during my resi
dence thb^ j an happy to say that a general
ly Americ. n appearance and square-toed
boots, with tlhaddition of a Kilkenny blaek-
tlion—like a weaver’s bean, procured me
very general attention on their part, and
doubting eyes followed me around every
corner.. The Covemm*nt maj be wise in
maintaining a fcrcc sufficientlj'strong to pre
vent any useless imd bloody outbreak, for the
feeling among the people is certainly very
strong, and mote’that looks like Fenianism is
to be seen here than in any portion of the
cowitrv I have vet visited. James Stephens
himself is a native of KilkttRy, and if any
American wishes to make a pilgrimage to the
birth place of th great Ileat Centre he will
find no difficulty n finding tie house. Kick-
ham and one or t eo more of the Fenian pris
oners now on tri 1 in Dublin, are natives of
thc county, and t le sympathy expressed for
them is very great The wonderful escape of
Stephens from tli i Richmond penitentiary is
regarded as sonufliing approaching the mi
raculous. “The 1 ,nd of God was in it,” they
say, but they are Xro intelligent to openly pro
fess the belief, wl c). is quite, common in the
West of Ireland, latSt. Petei was sent from
Heaven with cele ial keys expressly for the
purpose of his lib ration.
But I am approaching «y proper limit, so
fare you well Kills :nny. If your people are
poor they are lighthearted, if ignorant they
are “cute,” and fir those friends who ren
dered my stay so pleasant with that more
than hospitality did genial good will that
make Ireland the s'.ranger's home, I can sure
ly finish thc refrain of thc old song, that
“The more I think on you, the more my heart
warms.”
They evidently had confederates in the gov
ernment ; for, at the critical moment, a curi
ous scene took place in the Supreme Congress,
which was in session, deliberating on the
question of the omission of paper money. A
“mysterious man,” armed with a cutlass, en
tered suddenly and, despite all protests, ex
claimed :
“General Cabral, are you in favor of peace?”
“With all my heart,” was the response.
“Well, then,” said the stranger, “I am an
emissary of the revolutionary chief, who will
be here in less than two hours;” and then,
raising his voice, he exclaimed, “Long, live
General‘Baez, President ot the' Dominician
republio!”
As these words resounded through the hall
a scene of utter confusion ensued. Tlie min
isters abandoned their seats and in terror
sought protection in the houses of the French,
Italian and English Consuls. Cabral, however,
appeared in public and declared that if the
popular voice and welfare demanded the rule
of Baez, he would gladly give his consent.—
The popular feeling now turtfbd in favor of
Cabral, anti he retained power for several
weeks.
The mysterious man who had frigbotned
thc Congress soon appeared again. He prov
ed, to be General Pedro Guillermo, and man
aged so as to have himself appointed. Dicta
tor until Baez should arrive. An election was
held on the l4th of December by the Consti
tutional Assembly unanimously appointing
Buenaventura Baez President of the Domini
can republic.
Cabral has accepted a military position un
der the government, of which Guillermo, the
mysterious man, is the practical head.
The Mexican Loan.—We lean that, the
loan on bclinlt of tlie Mexican republic is be
ing rapidly taken up in this city. Upwards
of three million dollars’ worth of the bonds
have been already disposed of. Late reports
from Europe are to tlie effect that Maximil
ian's loan of a hundred millions finds but
few takers among the capitalists of tlie Old
World. This shows that the financial credit
of the republic stands better than that of the
empire.—N. Y. Herald, 7th.

“Irelan I’s 'Wrongs.”
An Englishman 1 is lately addressed a let
ter to the New Yo t Nation, demanding to
know what “Irelai d's Wrongs” arc, about
which so much is si d. He asks: Will you
“kindly specify tho s wrongs ? I have otten
“heard your countr men talk of thc wrongs
“of Ireland, and ah -ays asked them to de-
“scribe those wroi gs to me. I never yet
“found one who cou i point out any example
“of injustice of En; ish rule. Irishmen rise
“to the highest posi ions in the State; there
“is no impediment t - their progress at thc
“bar or other profes ions—to be sure we do
“not make bishops o them often—and in all
“essential points the] live under thc same
“laws as everybody Ise in Great Britain.—
“What are thc ‘wroigs?’ Every just man
“would use liis iniliu ice to remedy thcm.and
“I am sure English statesmen would be much
“obliged to you for suggestions, sinco thc
“standing mystery vri :h reference to Ireland
“is, that Irishmen arelalways going about the
“world whining abou: their ‘wrongs,’ and yet
“that ro one can poit t out in what way they
“are aggrieved.”
The Nation refers thc ingenious correspon
dent to Godwin Smith’s “Essay on Irish His
tory ard Irish Character,” and mentions two
of the most prominent grievances: the odious
system of land laws and maintenance of a
State Church, which is not simply the Church
of a sirali minority, but the sign and memo
rial of conquest.
We tre not surprist.l that this intelligent
Englishman should apt be aware of any
wrong* that Ireland s lifers. If, however, lie
will beat tlie pain to imagine that England
has been overun, confiscated and conquered
by Ireland ; that thc conquerors had shed as
much English blood upon the scaffold as Eng
land had shed Irish tiood; that for many
years the Irish would pfermit no Englishman
to hold any office, or even sit on a jury; that

WEEKLY REPORT OF THE MACON
MARKET.
Daily Telegraph Office, I
Saturday Evening, Jan. 13. j
With little exception we have had a week of
good weather. It is true the first few days were
very cold, but the cold snap, even, seemed to
give an impetus to trade, and os a consequence
we have to report agood business in every branch
—especially in groceries, dry goods, boots, shoes,
etc. The breaks in the State Road have proved
a serious draw back in the.replenishing of stocks,
yet the amount in the hands of dealers has been
amply sufficient to meet all demands. Notwith
standing these disadvantages, many of our mer
chants have secured additions in the way of new
goods, by way of Augusta, and some few by the
steamer Oak, via the river. Country dealers
need have no fear of having their orders filled,
os they have but to test the matter to find Macon
one of the cheapest markets in the South.
The river is still in good boating order, and
considerable cotton has been shipped by that
source. The loss of the steamer Asher Ayres in
volves the destruction of 1023 bales of the staple.
The establishment of a new line from Ilawkins-
ville to Savannah will prove a great convenience
to shippers and merchants.
Cottox—The market opened firm, but with lit
tle cotton offering. This may be said of the first
two days of the week. On Wednesday, news of
a decline in both Liverpool and New York had
the effect of depressing the market here, and
almost putting a stop to operations. On Thurs
day intelligence of a still further decline in
New York caused a decline of about two cents
on tho rates at which our market closed last
week. Tho sales for that period foot up some
250 bales. The intelligence of a still further
decline in Liverpool had the effect of completely
paralysing the market on Saturday, and tho
market closed dull and inactive,with sales of only
10 bales. The following are the closing quota
tions :
Ordinary 30(232
Middling 34@=6
Strict Good Middling 37<g3S
Receipts, 695 bales ; shipmeats, 405.
Moser Market.—Little demand in the mar
ket for sight exchange, with a good supply,
which may be quoted at par to 1 a J pei cent,
premium; gold, 40 to42J.

TIIE SNOW.
Since tbe publication of “The Bridge of Sigbi,’*
by Hood, we laive seen nothing equal to the fol
lowing poem In point vf smooth vei-iflcntioo^
flowing rhyme, and touching pathos. 11.e plaint
ive wail of a woman’s lost honor will bring tears
every sensitive breast. The author and subject af
the piece was au actress of -omc reputation, w ho
formerly lived in St. Louis In great style and mag
nificence. She was connected by marriage with
some of the first people of thc covntry, .ml to
those who knew her, th« poem wUl bo uoubly at
tractive—a woman of great genius and surpassing
beauty, fallen from her proud estate, paints her
own soul and lets the world see the remorse writ
ten upon it in such terrible letters.—Exchange.
Oh! the snow, the beautiful snow,
Filling the sky and earth below;
Over the housetops, over thc street,
Over the heads or tho people you meet.
Dancing,
Flirting', . . f.~;
Slumming along.
Beantiful snow! It does no wrong,
Flying to kiss a fair lady’s cheek,
Clinging to lips in a frolicsome freak.
Beautiful snow from the heaven above-, _i -g
Pure as an angel, gentle as lore 1
Oh! thc snow, thc beautiful snow,
How the flakes gather and laugh as they go
Wliiding about m the maddening ftan, .
It plays in its glee with every one.
Chashing,
Laughing, .
Hurrying by;
It lights on the face, and it sparkles the eje,
And the dogs, with a bark aud a bound,
Snap at the crystals that eddy around
Thc town is alive, and its heart in a glow,
To welcome the coming of beautiful snow!
How wild thc crowd goes swaying along,
How the gay sledges like meteors, flash by.
Bright for the moment, then lost to tho eye—
Ringing,
Swinging,
Dashing as they go,
Over the crust of the beautiful snow;
Snow so pure when it falls from the sky,
To be trampled in mud by thc crowds rushing by.
To be trampled and tracked by the thousands of
feet.

Once I was pure as the snow—but I fe...,

Cursing,
Dreading va die.
Selling my soul to whoevci l«v ,
Dealing iu shame for a morsel of bread,
Hating tlie living, sad fearing the deud.
Merciiul God! Have I fallen so low y
And yet 1 was once like thc beautiful suow.
Once I was fair as the beautiful snow,
With an eye like its crystal, aheartiike its glow;
Once 1 w as loved lor my iunoccnt grace—
Flattered and sought for the eharuis of my face.
Father,

Sisters all,
God, and myself, I have lost by my fall;
The veriest w retch that goes shivering liy, •
Will mare a wide sweep, lest I wander too nigb;
For all that on earth or above me I know,
There is nothiug that's pure as the beantiful
snow.
How straDge it should be that this beautiful
snow
Should fall on a sinner with no where to go!
How strange it should be, when thc night cornea
again,
If thc snow aud the ice struck my desperate
brain.
Fainting,
Freezing,
Dying alone,
Too wicked for prayer, too weak for a moan;
To be heard in the streets of the crazy town.
Gone mad in the joy cf the snow coming down..
To be, and so die, in iny terrible woe,
With a bed and a shroud of the beautiful snow.
