The snow of last week gave to the loverOorideighing but a brief season of enjoyment. The bellirung merrily for awhile, but the snow track seen vanished under softness of the weather. Apropos to the weather, thosweet and simple beauty of the poem, -..The First Snow Fall," by J. RUS SELL LOWELL ' ' ono of; New England's truest poets, has been rarnli,,,excelled. It is as true in fact as it is in poetical expression. The snow had begun in the gloaming, And busily all the night, And been heaping field and highway , With a silence deep and white. , • Every pine, and Sr, and hemlock, Wore ermine too dear for an Earl; And the poorest twig on the elm tree, Was rigidltich deep with pearl. From sheds,.now roofed with Carrara, -Came Chanticleer's muffled crow; -- The stiff rails were softened to sWan's down And still fluttered i down the snow. I thought,of a mound in sweet Auburn, Where a little , headstone stood; How the flakes were folding_if gently, As did robins the babes in the wood. llp,spoko.our Mabel, , Saying, "Fatber,•wbo makes it snow 4" And I told of the good Allfather, Who cares for us all below. Again I looked at the snowfall, - And thought 'of the leaden aky That arched o'er our first great sorrow, When that mound was heaped so high I remember the gradual patience That fell from that cloud like snow ; Flake bx flake healing and'hiding The scat of that deep - stabbed woo.
