BREVITIES.

A Dawning.

THE day had turned into night,

For the sun sank into the sea, -

A friend, once true, had been false to me,

And my life was a deadly blight.

The night has turned into day,

Advertisement

For the sun rose up from the sea, -

The love that dawned in my heart for thee

Has driven my grief away.

TRUMAN HEMINWAY, Assistant Treasurer.THE following is a statement of the ratio in which the various branches have been elected by the two upper classes for next year:-
