EVENING STAR. THE OLD YEAR. The aid year totters down the hill With trembling wings and weary; Down his cheek ruos many a rill; His heart is lone and dreary. Deapeimken are his eyes, and blear'd; With palsied hand be shades them. No longer now by zepliy r= cheered; Stern Winter's biast invades them. Ob, cold and friendless is the gloom Whose bince pail so'er him: Dark and fright hal is the tomb Wohidirgsping yawns before him. How mary ghosts of buried joys, Their winding -sheets are fluttering How many hopes, with gibbering vuics. Their broken vows are muttering ! Amid them moves a hoary shade, His orders grim repeating, Armed with mattock, and spade, He grins a horrid greeting. “Welcome, old mau! now rest thee here, Where are thy {a 1 Lpow must trust my griefs and cheer To another's sturdy keeping.” ‘Tha old year sinks with dying moan; His hnogry grave receives him. Time waves the new n hours on, And with his pilgrims leaves him, d! though oft unkind, Lfundiy cherish. may from bleeding heart snd mind hy wrongs forever perizh.

By this means the doy usually recovers, and the mind of the bitten person is relieved froma dangerous anxiety. wh scent ix imported from China, Bengal. and Kussia.

Late- ly, however, about 130 persons of the mountain districts of Pinerols lave resolved to emigrate to America. An insufficient harvest, aed agents busy to getup au eamrgration from Italy,provabiy have influenced these people to emigrate, which hitherte bas been an unusual thing ia Italy TL” Some time last year, the mayoral (driver) of a suzar estate near Cardenas, was found dead, bis death having been oecasioned by a » stab, which, of concse, could only have been flicted by one man. Five persons, Chinese, were, however, arrested, charged with baving com- mitted the murder As is customary with them en such oceasions, they deciared that all five of them had the deed, which was imposs!hta, as the mayoral, as before stated, lad been killed by a single stab.
