‘ SUNNY IIATS IN WINTER.

Summer Is a ulorious Ieanon, Warm. and bright, and pleasant;

But the part is not It n'asonr ’I‘o dc-plse the present;

So, while health can clim the mountain, And the log lights up the hall,

There are sonny days In winter, after all!

Spring, no doubt, hath fadcd from us, Maiilcndiko in charms;

Summer, too, with all hcr promise, I‘crished in our arms;

But the memory of tho vanished Whom our lit-arts rccall,

Mnkcth sunny days in winter, after all!

True, iherc'l scarce a flower that bloomcth, All the heat are dcad;

But. tho wall-ﬂower still pcrt’umcth Yonder gar-Iva bod;

And the arbutus, prnrl-bIoIsomcd, Ilnngs its coral hall;

There are sunny days in winter, after all!

Summer trees are pretty,—-vcry, And I love them well;

But this liolly's glistening berry None ofthosc cxccll;

While tho llr can warm the landscape, And the ivy clothes the wall,

Thcrc tire sunny days in winter, after all!

Sunny hours in every season, Wait Ilic iiinoccnt;

Those who taste with love and reason What their God liaa sent;

Those who neither soar too highly, Nor too lonely fall,

Feel the many days in winter after all!

Then, although our darling treasures Vanish from the heart;

Then although our once loved pleasures One by one depart,

Though the tomb looms iii the distance, And the morning pail,

There is sunshine, and no winter all!

The discontent prevailing in some oftha pi'ovinccs ol the Turkish empire his broken out in actual insurrection iii Ci'cto. In common with the allies, the Emperor of the French and the Empci‘or ot‘ ltussi have :lllbiillnilll from any active iiitci'fci'- once in thoso internal disturbances; but joint cll‘orts have bccu dirtth to bringing about iinpi'ovcd relations bi‘IIVtELII tho Porto and its Chi" ian subjucts not incono sistcnt with tho sovoi'cigii rights of the Sultan.
