TUE OLD AND THE NEW YEAR.
BT FATUER RYAX.
How SWilt Uiev RO !
Life's many Years.
Willi their winds of woe
AnJ their storms ol tears,
AnJ their darkest of Nights whose shadowy
slopes
Ar lit with the flashes of starriest hopes,
And their suiish.-iiy Days ia -UOsc calm
Heaven loom,
The cio'ids oi the tnpe st the shadows ol
t r!oO!lt.
Ami ah ! we pray
With a grief drear,
That the years iu.iv stay
When their srraves are near :
Though the brows of To-morrow be radiant
and biiuht, . .
With iovi and vv.th beauty , lite and witli
lurht, , . ,
The dead hearts of yesterdays, cold on the
bier.
To the hearts that survive theru, ar evjn
more dear.
For t!ie heart ?o triie.
To each Old Year cleaves ;
Thmmh th h:uid of the New
Flowery aariand. we-ive :
Bui the flowers of the Future, though fra
grant and fair
With the Pu-t's withered leaflets may
never compare.
For dear is each 1'ead leaf and dearer
each thorn
In tie wreathes which the brows of our
past years
lave worn,
Ye-i ! men wnl cling
With a love to the
last,
And wiidlv lliiii;
Their arms round the Past 1
As ihe vine that c'.inj.s to the oak that falls.
As the ivy twines round the crumbled wall;
For the dust of the Fast some hearts higher
Th?n me stars that flash out irom the i' u
lure's bright sUis.
And why not so ?
The old. old years,
They knew and they know
And ou.- hopes and our (ears :
We walked by their side, and we told them
.-.icii ;:rief.
And they Uied off our tears while they
whispered reiief,
And the stones ol hearts that nicy not be
revealed
Ia the hearts of the doad years are bur.eu
ai'.J sealed"
Let the New Year sin;:
At the Olds leaf's grave,
V.'ii! the Nlw Ye ir l.riiif.'
V.'hat t!:e Old Year gave ?
All . the Stranger-Year trips it over the
MIOWS.
And his brow is enwreathed with many a
rose,
But how manv thorns do the roses conceal
Which the roses when withered shal1 o
soon reveal ?
Let the New Year smile
When the Oil Year dies:
In Imw short a while
Shall the smiles be sighs 1
Yea! Stranger-Year, thou hast many a
charm,
And thy face is fair, and thy greeting warm,
But. dearer than thou in his shroud of
snows
Is the furrowed face of the Year that goes.
Y"et. bright New Year!
O or all the earth
"Vi;!i soiiir and c'ueei

They will trust thy words ;n a single hour,
They will love thy face, they will laud thy

Some crabbed bachelor says : '-Some

A young M.D , having asked permis

A lady at her marriage requested the

service in a church in Liverpool, let
'Jail her Lible with clasps to it ; and

A ooptilar author gives the followint;
advice to wives : " Should you find it
necessary, as you undoubtedly will,
many of you to chastise your husbands,
you should perform this affectionate
duty with the soft end of the broom,

Tfriir Miiilam: Al your reii'iesl 1 certify
that mv family have tried your Virginia Soap
sulheientlv, in jjoou weather and bad, to au
thorize me to say that .
1st. II is exeellei.t in the quality ol et-:au
sins; without ran ml in ' the texture of clothes;
and if the di.-eelions ore carelullv followed.
.vhitens them more than ordinary soaps.
2d. It shortens the lime al v.'asitin, by
requimijf lue clothes to Me wriin out at
once, and compels the laundress to finish
her work in the day after soakinpr; recuirintr
but a night and a day to complete the task
which usually requirs four or five day in
die week. Servmts are at lirst opposed to
its u.-e. because it allows them not to dally
over the washing tub. and -rets ofl'tlieir hands
the job over which lliey habitually loiter to
the inconvenience of the fimilv.
3d. Ii requires no machine to rub the
cl .thes and no rubbing by hand, thus pre
venting wear and tear.
4th. It is cheaper in point of original cost
and of time and of labor.
5th. It is the manufacture cf a ladu, who
has turned her hand to the household econo
my in these hard times, and that is insurance
against imposture and Iraud. But lollowher
directions with care and the effects will
prove the superior virtues of the Soap.
HLMIY A. WISE.
To Mrs. Dr. Hunter.
V. e cert'ly lhat we have witnessed a trial
of Mrs. Hunter's Soap, made by herself, ami
believe it is all that she claims tor it. The
clothes were thoroughly cleansed alter boiL
ing thirty minutes. We take pleasure in re
commending her valuable invention to the
favorable consideration of the public

Elizabeth, City. Oct. 12th, 1S3S.
I take pleasure in saying that, for wash
ing purposes, the Virginia Soap surpasses
anything that I have ever used. I find it
will accomplish all that is planned for it.
No better invention could be placed before
the public than the Soap invented by Mrs.
N. W. Hunter. It is worth more than the
best Washing-Machine in the Country, and
saves clothes from wear and tear. 1 think
after any one has used it a few times, they
would aol be without it.
