The Tam O’Shanter Maid 
With eyes as blue as azure sky 
My Tam O’Shanter maid, a 
Through storm and shine goes tripping by ; 
By cold she’s ne’er dismayed. 
Cheeks as red as the new blown rose, 
Her hair a golden brown, 
Waving in winter’s wind it glows 
Like the sky when the sun goes down. 
Her lips are set with shining pearls 
' That grace bewitching smiles ; 
I see no face like that dear girl’s, 
Though I’ve journeyed many miles. 
Her form, her figure, speak of grace, 
Voice like the robin’s first call; 
And in her hands such lines I trace, 
The blending of them all. 
Yet my sweet Tam O’Shanter maid, 
Who fills my life with joy, 
Disdains my smile and spurns my aid ; 
She makes my love her toy. 
But why she never smiles on me 
I’ve never yet been told ; 
But this I know, my love for her 
Is all that I can hold. 
Perhaps some day she’ll learn to love, 
Then maybe she'll love me; 
And when she does I ne’er will rove, 
I at her side will be.

Thursday evening by the members of

on the occasion of the installation of 
the officers of the corps for the ensu- 
ipeterm. - Mrs, .Hva’ 1. Cook= ot

o’clock, a New England supper was

the installing officer by the president 
of some souvenirs of Manchester, to 
which Mrs. Cook replied in her char- 
acteristic manner. After she had 
concluded Mrs. Tappan stepped for- 
ward and in appropriate words pre- 
sented the retiring president, Mrs. 
Horton, witha pretty opal ring, set in 
pearls. 
Among the speakers were Com. E. 
P. Stanley of the post, Com. E. R. 
Sargent of the camp and Mrs. Enock
