Liv.— The New-Year Cry Of The Fallen.
LIV . — THE NEW-YEAR CRY OF THE FALLEN .
The Gate Is Shut. Another Year Is Gone,
The gate is shut . Another year is gone ,
And we are left upon the lonely hill , With mem ' ry of the duties left undone ,
The weak intention and the wayward -will . O ye whose holy lives are sown with prayers ,
As Heav ' n ' s resplendent canopy with stars , Have pity on our wants , our woes , our cares bars ,
And help our souls to burst their prison . Though wewhile penitential tear-drops iiow ,
, Look back with longing to a holier day ; Like one who lies down amid ice and snow ,
To dream of cowslips and tlie first of May . There yet is One who will not chide or scoff ,
But beckons us to homes of endless bliss ; eholds each penitent a great off"
B" way ,-And flies to meet him with a Father ' s kiss . s

Miss Inly Lives In A Strange Old House,
Miss Inly lives in a strange old house ,
Which has grandly stood for ages ; And her father ' deeds , both good and bad ,
Are told in history ' s pages . 'Tis a somewhat ruinedyet stately place
, , With large wooded grounds surrounded , * In whichsince the days of good Queen Bess ,
The fleet , -footed deer have bounded .
