A Christmas Hymn. TELEGRAPHIC NEWS, }

l, Long centuries avo, When slept the monster God of War, Sated with blood and woe, And earth at ease From tramp of horse, from armies’ tread, From rolling of the battle car Whose path is o’er the dead, Was born the Prince of Peace.

j

Il, Not in Imperial Rome, Whose power bad awed the world to rest, The boy-prince had His home; Nor palace decked With splendor and the wealth of earth, With trophies hung, and woerrior’s crest, Witnessed the great King’s birth,— Not such His home elec’.

(11.

Yet royalty did grace, Though fled were spectre, throne and crown, His advent so our race;

For royal maid Bore Him, the glory and the pride Of mother; and royal town—

Envy of earth beside

First lent Him sheltering aid.

rv. Bright shone His natal star, lhe wakeful East its lustre saw, — And Magi from afar Obeyed its call. Loud sang o'er still Judea’s plains Che Angelic throng, and, dumb with awe, Rude shepherds heard the strains, News of great joy to all.

Vv. The hope of human kind,

And tind a common mind, Is cradled there:

Low be your words and soft your feet, Nor snatch from sleep those eyes Now still, that face yet fair.

vi. Not always will He know

And toss the seas ; Birds may have nests to rest their wing, And foxes holes to be their bed,

Yet shall the King of kings

Lack the delights of these.

VIL.

Nor always ‘rill He know, That sense of calm and careful rest, And feel the kindly glow

Of sympathy ;

Single with him engage For the world’s mastery.

Vill,

Yea ’gainst his rightful Lord Man too shail join in this dread strife ; Shall raise the rebel’s sword And scorn Him King ; Force to his lips the bitter’st draught E’er mixed by hate to poison life, — Such as no mortal quaffed, He'll drain, unmurmuring.

ix. Thus, Mystery sublime’! He'll draw us to Himself again, With pardon meet our crime, With love our sin ; Bear all the heavy griefs we feel, Know the full sting of mortal pain ; His stripes our souls will heal, His death our lives shall win. x Then, come with holy joy And bow before the wondreus child, The spotless Virgin’s Boy, Yet God with us: And let us offer at His shrine Our choicest gifts. our treasures piled, And learn the love divine That for our help stooped thus, TE + — ei + Rann Succassful Candidates.

<<; H. M. 8S. Phoenix. The sentence in the case of this unfortun- ate ship's Captain was in the following words :—

‘*The Court having found that the strand- ing of her Majesty's ship Phoenix was due to the negligent navigation of the said ship; that from the time of sighting East Point Light to the momeut of striking on the reef proper precautions were not taken to ascer- tain the distance of the ship from the light, and that from 9.35 p. m, the courses steer- ed under any circumstances were extremely hazardous ; and, further, that after the ship took the ground all the circumstances being taken into consideration, it was impossible to avert the total loss of the ship, the Court adjudges the said Commissioner Hubert Henry Greenfell to be severely reprimand- ed and dismissed from H.M.S. Phosniz i the said lieutenant for navigating duties, John Hill, to forfeit one year’s seniority as lieutenant, to be severely reprimanded, and dismissed fromm her Majesty's ship Phasmix; the said Gunuer Joseph Merrett to be re- primanded, and the rest of the officers and crew of the said ship to be acquitted.”
