POETRY.
THE NT7BBBBT ELF. . »i»x little feet, how you wander and wander. Little twin truants so fl<et! Dear little,head, how you ponder and Orer the things that you meet. Dear little tongue, how yon chatter and ehatter, Ortt your innocent joys! Oh. but the house is alire with your clatter, Shaking,lndeed, with,your noise!
Can't you be quiet a moment, sweet rover t Is there no end to your fun t • Soon the old dustman will sprinkle you over, Then the day's frolic is done. Come to my arras, for the daylight is dying, Closer the dark Bhadows creep; Come, like a bird that is weary of flying ; Come, let me ting you to sleep. Joskfhinb FoLLann. .
