DIRGE FOR THE YEAR. Orphan hours, the year Is dead, Come and sigh, come and weep! Merry hours smile instead, For the. year is but asleep. See it smiles as It is sleeping, Mocking your untimely weeping. As an earthquake rocks a corpse In its coffin in the clay, So White Winter, that rough nurse Rocks the death-cold year today: Solemn hours! wail aloud For your mother in her shroud. As the wild air stirs and sways The tree-swung cradle of a child. So the breath of these rude days Rocks the year: be calm and mild. Trembling hours, she will arise With new -love within her eyes. January gray is here, Like a sexton by her grave; February bears no bier, March with grief doth howl and rave, And April weeps but, O ye hours, Follow with Mary's fairest flowers. Percy Bysshe Shelley. PARTY AT CLUB. ' The reception and matinee dance given by the Country club members to their friends yesterday afternoon was largely attended and a charming affair.
