The OOIiOGIST'S flOVEHTISEH 



Vol. I. Danielsonvillk, Conn., October, 1890. 



No. 



Think of your woods and orchards without birds ! 



Of empty nests that cling to boughs and beams 

 As in an idiot's brain remembered words 



Hang empty 'mid the cobwebs of his brains ! 

 Will bleat of flocks or bellowing of heards 



Make up for the lost music, when your teams 

 Drag home the stingy harvest, and no more 



The feathered gleaners follow to your door? 



HERE WE ARE AGAIN AND SO IS OCTOBER. 

 The trees are shedding their russet garb. Yellow autumn has come. The green grass 

 has lost its freshness; and the husbandman looks out upon his fields from which no more 

 is expected, until another spring shall warm the bosom of slumbering nature. Sad and 

 solitary are the forest walks. The feathered tribe plumes their wings for their journey to a 

 more genial clime, and stay not to witness the utter desolation of their favorite haunts. 

 But while the garden flowers are all withered and gone; while the blossoms no longer 

 enliven and beautify the orchard or besprinkle the plain, the wild flowers, uncultured and 

 unwooed, shoot up spontaneously, like the last smile of the dying; spangling both heath 

 and hill-side with its variegated beautie.-?, and reconciling the pensive lover of nature to 

 the universal decay of the vegetable world. Early sinks the sun behind the distant hill ; 

 and the lengthened evening, with its grave reflections and melancholy presentiments, 

 heralds the night of winter upon the world. — Ed.
