POETRY. ^tii Chrlstmas-Tide. tu?. ?t A. w. bblxaw. ^iirj eve. They say to-night is Christina? Eto, anil, high ?? I could reach, I've hung my stockings on the wall, ana left aJkisa oh each. I left a kiss on each for Him who'll find my atc^ngsouite: He never came before, but 0. I'm euro He Witt' to-night. And to-morrow'11 be the blessed day our blesaod Christ was born, Who A&ae en earth to pity mo, whom many others 'scorn. Abd why it is they treat me so indeed I can not toll, But TOlaT lovo H im next to you, when all Keema wise and well. 1 long hn,vo looked for Christmas, Mother? waited all the year; And Tory strange it is indeed to feel its dawn so dear; Bat t o-moTTo w'll be the day I so have prayed to aevJ And 1 long to sleep and wake, and find w'hat it will bring to mo. The snow is in the street, and through the window all the day 1,to watched the little children pass : they seemed,H0 ?hid and gay t And gaily' did they talk about tho gifts they would receive:? O, all tho world is glad to-night, for this is Christmas Eve.' And Mother on the cold, cold floor Vy put my lhtlc shoe? The other's torn across the toe, and things might thoro slip through ; I've set my little shoe, Mother, aud it for you shall bo, >'or I know that He'll remember you while k He remember me. k 8o lay nie in my bed, Mother, and hear my prayers aright, lo 'never came before, but O, I'm sure He will to-night. MIDNIGHT. Mother, is it the morning yet 7 I dreamed that it was here; 1 thought tho suu shone through the pnnc, so blessed and so clear. 1 dreamed my little stockings there Tore full as they could hold. Bat it's hardly morning yet. Mother?it is so dark aud cold. 1 dreamed the bells rang from the church whore the happy people go, And thoy rang good-will to all men iu a lan guage that 1 know. I thought I took from off the wall my little stockings there. And on the floor I emptied them?such sights there never were ! A doll was in there, meant for me, just like those little girls Who always turn nwuy from me; nnd O, i had surf? curls! , I kissed it on its painted cheek; my own are not ss sweet. Though the people used to stop to pat and praise them in the street. And Mother, there were many things that would have pleased you too; For He woo had remembered me had uot for gotten you. Bat I only dreamed 'twas morning, and yet 'tis far away, Though woll I know that He will come before the early day. So I will put ray dream aside, thongh I know my dream was true, And sleep and droam my dream again, nnd rise at morn with you. CHRISTMAS MORN. TUR MOTHER. AU night have I wakod with weeping till the bells arc ringing wild, AU night have I waked with my sorrow, and lain in my tears, like a child. For over against tha wall an empty as they can be, Tho limp little stockings hang, and my heart is breaking iu me! Your vision was false as the world, 0 darl ing dreamer and dear! And how csu 1 bear you to wake and find no Christmas here ? - Better yon and I were usleop in the sluinbt whence none may sturt, And O, those empty stockings! I could till them out of my heart! No Christmas for you or me, darling; your kisses were all la vain ; I have given your kisses back to yon over and DYir Mgnill i I hare folded you to my breast with a moan ing no one hears; - Your heart is happy in dreams, though your hair is damp with my tears. I am out of heart and hope ; I am almost out of my mind; The world is cruel aud cold, nud only Chriat is kind ; And much must he borno and forborne; but the heaviest burden of all That ever hath lain on my lifo arc lhaso little Rght things on tbo wall. Hush, Bells, you'll waken my dreamer! 0 children so full of cheer! Be a little less glad going by; there hath been no Chrietmus here. Go tender?* over the stones, O light foot trip plug a tune! The slighted thing sleeps iu my arms?she'll waken too soon too soon! [0?r Young Folk. l ? ? , . ,- , ?
