Jllildvess of the (Dawier OF THE Old Forty-nine is dyinpr, And the chill Winter's breeze Is heard mournfully sighing '.Mid the tall forest trees, The fair groves late exulting In their lovliest green, Stand now gloomy iiud luouruful As they witness the scene. Tl e sweet songsters which lately We all hoard with delight, From the frrwns of rude winter Have now taken their Sight. Yes, the old year departing For ever is gone, And hale Fifty eomcs hastening Full rapidly on. Once again my kind Patrons I before you appear, And most heartily wish you A long, I aj'py New Year ! As we look l ack on the past, It Lett n s us to raise From cur hearts, truly grateful, A v ett : lUlu ra of praise. Tcr ur nation is lisppy, And prosperous, and free, Awl " the fctar Spar.gled Runner" Floats on every sea ; And w liile many are v rithing Ucneaih tyranny's sway, We enjoy th- refulgcnee Of sweet Freedom's bright day. We dare follow our conscience, And we dread not a crown, We ff.tr liot a proud Pontiff We can lauvh at his frown ; And while others are groping In deep darkness their way, Education beams on us Willi Ler heavenly ray. Grim pestilence no longer Is now stalking abroad, Cut health and abundance Sjieak the goodness of God ; Teaee, so lovely and gentle, Sweetly smiles on cur land, Horrid War Las ceased frowning, And obeys Ler command. In our own native village (To our hearts ever dear) There's but little to sadden, Aud abundance to cheer : months. January, j February, 'jMakch, Al'KIL, .May, Ju.VE, July, August, Sfi TEMBER, !

Rut, with patience yet hear me for moment or two ; Let mo ask a few favors and I then will be through. Still welcome The Guardian when each month to your homes To instruct and admonish in kindness it comes. And remember the PRINTER, I would earnestly say As he labors to give you the news of the day.
