ORIGINAL POETRY. ' Alone in my lonely home. With nothing that’s human near, With head-ache and beart-aohe too. And never a soul to cheer. I cannot go out of doors, For the rain Is falling fast: Steadily down It pours—- ' I wonder how long’t will last. AH day long it has rained, , Till the stream has overflowed; And its turbid yellow water ■ Is surging o’er the road. The leaden clouds hang low. Touching the sombre bills,' Adown whose sloppy sides Pour a thousand tiny rills. ' The trees seem cold and dank, i\ And droop their dripping leaves; Each like a mourner sad. Who for some dead friend grieves. • Earkness is settling down. No moon nor stars to-night, > ‘ I’ll brichten my little Are, And-eit by its flickering light. •• I cannot attempt to read, So violently aches my head: And, long dull hours must-pass, Ere’t Is time to go to bed. Alone In my lonely homo, With nothing that's human near: With head-ache and heart-ache too, And never a soul to cheer. I'm weary oflivlngalone. I’m sick of this weary Ufa. 1 I’ll end this existence soon— I Kill, by taking—a wife! C. M. H. Sales by Auction. INTENSIVE AUCTION IIAiE ON IStla OCTOBER, 1865. Me.
