So I will put my dream aside, though I know my dream was true, And slsop and dream my dream agnin, nnd rise at morn with you. CHRISTMAS MORN. TUX MOTHER. All night have I waked with weeping till the bells are ringing wild, All sight have I waked with my sorrow, and lain in my tears, like a child. For over against the wall as empty us they can be, Tho limp little stockings hang, and my heart ia breaking in me! < Yens vision was false as tho world, O darl ing dreamer and dear! And how can I bear you to wake and find no Christmas here ? ? Better yen and I were asleep in the slumber whence none may Btart, And O, those empty stockings! I could till them out of my heart I No Christmas for yon or me, darling; your kisses were a" ia vain ; I have give* your kisses back to yon over and over again; I have folded you to my breaat with a moan ing no one hears; Your haart is happy in dreams, though your hair is damp with my tears. I am out of hoart and hope; I am almost out of my mind; The world Is cruel and cold, and only Christ is kind; And much must be borne and forborne; but tha heaviest burden of all That aver hath lain on my lifo are those little light things ou tha wall. Hush, Bells, you'll waken my dreamer! 0 children so full of cheer I Be a little less glad goir?; by; there hath been no Christmas heu. Oo tenderly over the stones, O light feet trip ping a tune! The slighted thing sleeps in my arms?she'll waken too soon too soon! ?ftV, [Oar Young Falk?. The Now York Herald of Friday, iu its review of the stock market for tho preceding day, says; .
