THE BUGLE SONG.

Is there not. in these three stanzas TEXKTSONV "Bugle Sonp") the very echo of an eeho? Can yon not almost hear, with your actual living ears, the echo of the strain, "dying, dvingr' away in the farthest distance? "The splendor falls on castle wall*

And snowy summits, old in story: Tlie long light shakes across the Jukes, And the wild cataract leaps in glory/

"0 love, they die in yon rich sky, They faint on hill, or field, or river

Our echoes roll from soul to soul, And grow forever and forever.

a Blow, bugle, blow, sot the wild ecliocs Hying, And answ er, echoes, unswer, dying, dying, dying."

tWIn the olden time it used to be different, as we learn from the following song, whoso moral we particularly commend to the can't-make-a-bed portion of community: 1 do not blame a bachelor,

Time was, when girls could card and spin, And wash, aud bake, and brew But now they have to keep a maid,

If they have aught to do.

I do not blame the bachelor His courage must be great 4 To think to wed a modern miss,

If small be his estate.

Time was, when wives could help to buy The land they'd help to till, And saddle Dobbin, shell the corn,

And ride away to mill.

The bachelor is not to blame,

I If he's a prudent man He now must lead a single life, And do tlie best lie can.

The following horizontal musings of a a loafing tippler, deserve to be perpetuated. Hear the wail:

But here's tlie difference between leaves and me, I falls "more harder" and more frequently.
