NEW YEAR’S ADDRESS
TO THE PATRONS OF THE ‘UNION.’
—JANUARY Ist, !.'
Speak soft and low your words of woe,
For the grand Old Year is dying;
Let the train move slow as yo onwanl go
-To the tomb where the Years are lying.
A dear o!d~Friend has, come to his end
Mid the storm of the ’Wintry Weather j
The wind blow s shrill but the (J ld Year’s still,
And Lig grave ia dug on the heather.
O ! the war-clouds loomed and tho hoarse guns
boomed,
When this Old Year came in bis glory ;
And the notes of mirth that betokened his birth
Were mingled with War’s dread story.
O the shot and shell shrieked the notrs of Hell,
And the musketry fearfully rattled ;
And on many a plain the dying and slain,
While the living ia madness battled.
And the widow wept and the orphan slept
And dreamed till the dawn’s awaking ;
While many a prayer was beme on the air
From hearts that within were breaking.
The Sun with a frown from Heaven looked down
Where brother with brother was fighting;
And the streams turned red with the blood that
was shed
In the passions of War’s exciting.
The pale moonlight fell soft on the night,
Wh?re the Bentry his guard was keeping;
And within the rude camps or beneath the cold
damps,
The soldiers lay quietly sleeping.
The ploughshare old stood still in the mould,
And the grass in the lane was growing;
Aud the ripe, brown grain stood uncut oa the
plain
And the meadow grew rank for mowing.
But 0! blessed day, when the smoke cleared away.
And peace o’er the nation was beaming :
-And the dear old Flag, from each hill-top andcrag
Once more was gallantly streaming.
Mid the shot and shell, mid the storm of Hell,
It floated in majesty queenly ;
Not a stripe was erased, not a star was displaced
When the dawn burst upon it serenely.
How the men turned out witha cheer and a shout,
As our heroes were homeward
And each Mother with’joy wept over her boy,
Aud the nation with gladness was burning.
O 1 the maidens sang and the merry bells rang,
And the whole earth to Music seemed waking;
And the good God of iove smiled down from
above, N
While our hearts with joy were breaking.
Kind Readers!—lf you’ll hear our lay,
We wish you well this New Year day ;
May no rude grief disturb your joy,
Or piuchiug want your mirth destroy;
Your barns be filled with plenteous stores
Aud friendship l reign-within your doors;
May Peace and Plenty bless your homes
Through this and many coming moons;
May pain and sickness, want and strife,
Ne’er mar the current of your life,
And when at last your race is run,
Your journey ended—work all done,
May you depart jn hoary prime,
As corn is gathered in its time.
We owe you thanks that through the Year
Whose dying knell now strikes tha car,
The “Union” lived to note its dose,
To tel! its triumphs, joys aud woe 3.
No storm of rebtl grape or lead.
No poisoned hiss of Copperhead,
v No wily effort how’er njade, *
By ambushed foe or open raid,
Has hurt or harmed or changed its course
While you stood by to reinforce.
Each week it entered at your door
And brought its little social store,
Of locals, verses, stories, news,
Who died and whoa wife did choose ;
The markets and the state of trade,
Who gained a battle, made a raid,
Of clothing, what the latest style,
Who lost a horse or who “ struck ile,”
Who robbed a house, who raised a brawl,
Who wore the largest “waterfall
What merchants sold goods “cheap for cash,”
What train run off and made a smash;
All this and much we can’t recall,
It told you through the Year, and all
For less than many in one day,
For hurtful vices throw away.
The “Union. ’’ young, yet old appears ;
Though j oung’in name, ’tis old in years.
The marriage yet in mind is fresh
That made its parents twain, one flesh ;
From two stout stocks it sprung to life,
A sturdy father with a vig'roua wife.
And may it spread, enlarge, improve.
A blessing to tbs country prove.
May old subscribers pay their bills
And new subscribers fill its tills.
For Urriot. may it always stand—
The Union of our Fatherland.
Our town the marks of age displays,
’Tis settled down to sober ways.
Surprise would not o’erwbelm the race,
To see a wall thrown round the place.
A few might marvel, but the mass
Would know ’twas done to stive the grots.
Its avenues arc deep and wide,
The object of our special pride;
Designed for show and not for use,
In nature’s wildest scenes profuse.
The Alpine regions scarce can claim
Such gulches deep, such grand ravines.
Its board walk,—Oh ! for magic pen
And fitting word and thought and then.
We might portray for distant friends
The real charms our boardwalk lends.
And yet ’tis not so bad a place
As eome'whose names we here might trace.
It has its churches and hotels as well,
Both, piaces where the spirits love to dwell.
The first, ’tis hoped, are Spirits pure, divine,
The last are mostly feeble spirits of wine.
Its chief attraction though seems aj the stores, j
Where lovingiiusbands congregate by scores,
And spend each blessed evening of their lives
Instead of staying home to cheer their wives. .
Here village statesman talk with looks profound, !
And news more trilling than their jokes goes!
round.
Here civil rights and questions deep to view
Are fully settled iu an hour or two.
And here tome “Captain 1 ' or perhaps a ‘ Squirt’ ’
Diverts the crowd with tales that never tire.
Most heartily are-these stores abhorred
By loving wives concerned about their Lords ;
For here by idle fancies led,
Thev spend much time that should be spent jp
’ bed.
The Railroad too, we here would mention,
It well deserves our commendation;
For safety, sure it lias no peer,
No “smash” occurred throughout the year ;
No boiler “bust,” no coupling broke.
No horse was frightened by the smoke,
No litnb3 were injured, no lives lost,
No rails were broken by the frost.
The turnpike still keeps up its toils—
A proof that turnpikes have no souis.
The Charles street road we hope to see
Completed at an cariy day ;
Unjust exactions then shall cease
And purse and patience have release.
Next spring another church will rise
And w ith its steeple pierce the skies,
To show the world that wealth and grace
; Are growing here with equal pace.
• And now since strife and war are o’er
Andcruel drafts moie3to more, —
Since Peace is smiling o’er the land
And things resume their former stand,
We hope to see our town extend,
Its.we<h increase, its business mend;
New buildings going up by scores,
For dwellings, factories, shops and stores.
Throughout our county, rich and grand,
Is progress seen on every hand j
The anvil’s ring, the hammer’s stroke,
The hum of looms, the farmer’s note,
The whirr of wheels, tha rush of trains,
The clattering noise of loaded wains,
The cheerful sound, where, skilled to rule,
The village master keeps his school;
The congregated hymns of praise,
Tbc thoughts that grateful prayers raitc,
Unite in ono grand soqg sublime,
To God, the Lord of evety clime.
F - And Maryland, no more in chaius,
.May welt rejoice o’cr sl, hxr gtvidS
tier harvests reant, her garners stored,
■ ' Her borders freed from rebel horde,
Her commerce whitening every sea,
Her streams-choked with machinery,
Her CoMtfnttioP,—Frwdow’i chart,
Has broken up the slaver’s mart ;
Her and wisely framed
By loy armeu are w?ll maintained;
Her Governors, both the old and new,
Men proved by treason, yet found true ;
Her noble sons who braved the storm
Of rebel hate and rebel scorn,
Returned, to itll in simple strain
How fields were won and viei’ries gained;
Bat still her proudest Insist shall be,
Her Sons who fell for Liberty !
All honor tef the sleeping dead
Who for their country fought and bled ;
We drop a tear o’er hero graves,
The si lee t home of sleeping braves,
And offer up the fervent prayer,
That God will for the widow care,
Will for the orphaned one provide
And La the stricken parent’s guide;
And thanks, according to his word,
The ploughshare has usurped the sword.
This day for near six thousand years
Has smiled its joys and wept its tears,
But none, save one, on page oftim*
Has olosed a record more sublime..
Full many a time, iu many a land,
When war and woe stalked band in band,
The groaning people sought release
And prayed for one to give them peace.
He came: and well might violets bloon,
And lade .the air with rich perfume;
And well might angels view tbe scene,
When Gsxxt, the soldier, stood serene
Beneath the starry flag of Peace,
And bade war’s fearful havoc cease. _
Oh ! well ia this our jubilee,
In this our land, ail one, all free,
May woman’s tender cheek grow pale
And dusky millions sadly wail,
And strong men yield to rage and grief,
At thoughts of him, our murdered chief!
Lincoln ! whose patient limbs now rest
Beneath the willow 3 in the West.
Four years he lived and suffered through
The doubt of friends, tbe bate of foe,
Through scorn aud jest and scoffs and sneers,-*
And then the hisses changed to cheers;
Tho taunts to tribute, scoffs to praise,
As light broke in on darkling days, *
Forgiveness filled his heart and pen
With thoughts of peace, good-wili to men;
The words of mercy on his bps,
When murder wrought .the swift eclipse.
Sublimely through tbe storm be stood,
Then sealed devotion with his blood.
As in the field the squadrons stand,
And wait in awe the stern command ;
When from the ranks tbe cannons throw
Their vollied thunders on the foe,
The mußkets pour their deadly fire,
And bombs shriek fiercely in their ire,
And sabres fia3h amid the glare,
While death rides swiftly on the air, —
So stood we when the assassin pressed
The trigger, and Lincoln lay at rest t
O deed accurst! Since Cain bad birth,
And murder first defiled the earth,
No deed so dark, in deed 3 of crime,
As that which took him e’er his time.
Green be the turf where Lincoln sleeps,
Soft be tbe watch the nation keeps;
While millions in the years to come
Shall sing his Fame in every tongue.
“ Press w'e onward to tbe futurfc;
Peace and truth and love to win ;
Till in every ransomed nation
Hushed shall be tbe battle’s din ;
Swords shall change to peaceful plough shares,
Spears to prunuing hooks shall turn,
And the Press shall teach tbe nations
Love that evermore shall burn t”

Hoop Skirts.
Donald MitcUctl, in the Atlantic Monthly,
talks thus about these women appendages:
“Women did very well without them, and
looked quite as well, at least in my opinion.
But some ingenious man contrived the idea,
of templing them with a new want, and
they were nt once persuaded into believing
that hoop skirts were indispensable to a
genteel appearance. They were adopted
all over the country with a rapidity that
outstripped that of the cuffs and collars—
not, perhaps, that as many-were manufac
tured, because if that had been the case;
they could not have been consumed, unless
each woman bad worn two or three. Aod
they may in fact wear two or three each—
I don’t kuow how that is—but look at the
waste already visible. Every week or two
new patterns are bronghtout, better, light
er, or prettier than the last ; whereupon
the old ones are thrown aside, though not
half worn. Why, Miss, do you know that
your sex are carrying about them soma
thousands of tons, of brass and steel in tha
shaps of these skirte ? As to tbe waate, it
is already so large as to have become a pub
lic nuisance. An old hat or shoo may be
given away to somebody— an
brush may be disposed of by patting it iwto
the stove ; but as to an old skirt, whft
wants it ? You cannot burn it; the very
beggars will not take it ; aud hence it if
thrown into tbe street or into the alley
close to your door, where it continues for
months to tripup the fet of every wayfar
ing man quite as provokingly as it some
times tripped up the feet of the wearer.*—
It is the waste of boopskirts, as ranch as
anything else, that keeps the manufacture
so brisk.” •
Editors, like other shrewd men, must
ilve with their eyes and ears open- Th*
following is told of one who started a par
per in a western town. The town was in
fested by gamblers, whose presence was *
source of annoyance to tbe citizetiß, wbo
told the editor that if he did not coroe out
against them they would not patronize hi*
paper. He replied that bo would give theca
a “smasher” next day. Sure enough, hif
next issue'contained tho promised “smash
er;” and on the following morning the re
doubtable editor, with scissors in hand, waf
I seated in bis sanctum, when in walked a
! large man, with a horse whip in hand, who
: demanded to know if the editor was in.—
“No sir,” was.the reply, “ho has stepped
out. Take a seat, and read the papers—bo
will return in a minute.” Down sit the in
dignant man of cards, crossed his legs with
his whip between them, and commenced
reading- a paper. In the meantime the ed
itor quietly slid down stairs, and at the land
ing he met anotherexcitcd mao with a eud
gel in who asked ii the editor waa
in? “Yes.sir,” was the quick response-?
“ you will find biro seated upstairs, reading
a newspaper.” The latter on entering tbh
room, with a furious oath, commenced a vi
olent assault upon tho former, which was
received with equal ferocity. Tbe fight was
continued till they had both rolled to tbe
foot (tf the stairs, and had poonded each
other to their heart's content.
A Punctual Man.
Mr. ITiggine was a very punctual man in
ail his transactions through life. Hewraass
ed a large fortune by untiring industry aod
punctuality ; and at the advanced age of
ninety yeara was resting quietly on his bed,
and calmly made almost every arrangement
for his decease and buriel. His pulse grew
fainter, and the ligfit of life seemed just
dickering in its socket when hit sou re
marked :
“Father, you will probably live but a day
or two ; is it not- well for you to name your
bparcre ?”
“To be sure my son,” said tbe dying man.
“It is well thought of and I will do it now.’*
He gave the names of sixq tho usual
number, and sank back exhausted upon hie
pillow.
A gleam of thought passed over hie with*
eredteatnres like a ray of light, and he ral
lied only) more. “My Eon. read me ibelUt.
