Arter the political meeting at Covehead last night, there was a great ‘* falling out’ among the Grit politicians. Two of the leading luminaries of that party having borrowed a horse, proceeded to the moeting and delivered themselves of arguments which were intended to have ‘‘ great weight” with the electors, and then started for home. The horse, which had evi dently been thoroughly groomed in Conservative principles, was not satisfied that any weight was left behind, so he calmly upset the sleigh, and, leaving the politicians sprawl- ing in a snowbank, made his way home to town, allowing the moulders of public
opinion to follow as best they might. How that was, deponent knoweth not, but, even ‘‘ay the wind is tempered to the shorn lamb,” so it happened in thia cage ; both

Thrift.
The world is framed on order. Let us scan How much depends on Thriftiness’and man :~— Rouse us to think how wiser to become, Increasing knowledge, as we travel Home -- For we are not without a mind to show
The way we should in every instance go.
The Thrift that follows all who truth obey, Holds counsel with the conscience every day, iteminding each of still a higher sooth,
In realms above, eternal in its growth,
Faith leads the way, with promises secure, Till Thrift shall make its holy triumph sure.
Think not, that deep’ning waters come to drown !
Hard lines, so drawn out, as to keep man down !
Rough places furnished to welcome our hold!
Ice and chill weather but to make us cold !
Forbear !—God rules them all, and well displays
The Holy Will, to brighten man’s dark days.
Thrift is God’s mercy ! may po e ‘True and Free

For, so the world shail learn to live in peace,
Trained to the arts that bless with their increase.

To ev'ry man and woman, and the child,
Hope is prospect ive, to become un-viled

In chorus) p eace on Earth, Good-will to man :-

‘Tis that. will be the echo of its —.
