MEASURING THEBABY.
We measured the riotous "baby
Against the cottage wall
A lily grew up at the threshold,
And the baby was just as tall
' A royal-tiger lily,
With spots of purple and gold,
And heart like a jeweled chalice
The fragrant dew to hold.
Without, the blue-bird whistled f-'
High up in the old rbof-trees,
And toand fro at the window .
The rose rocked her bees;
' And the wee pink fists of the baby
Were never a moment still,
Snatching at shine and shadow.
That danced on the lattice-sill.
. Ills eyes were as wide as blue bells
His mouth like a flower unblown
Two little bare feet -like funny white
mice
Peeped out from his snowy gown ;
And we thought, with a thrill of rapture
That yet had a touch of pain,
When June rolls round with her roses,
We'll measure the boy again.
Ah me ! In a darkened chamber,
With the sunshine shut away,
Through tears that fell like bitter rain,
We measured the boy to-day,
And the little bare feetthatwere dimpled
And sweet as a budding rose,
Lay side by side together,
In the "hush of long repose.
Upon the dainty pillow,
White as the risen dawn,
The fair little face lay smiling,
With the light of Heaven thereon
And the dear little hands like rose leaves
Dropped from a rose lay still,
Never to snatch at the sunshine
That crept to the shrouded sill.
We measured the sleeping baby,
With ribbons white as snow,
For the shiniug rosewood casket
That waited bim below;
And out of the darkened chamber
We went with a childless moan
To the light of the sinless angels
, Our little one ha4 flown.
The Speak of War Toward the Sun
rise. Those of our readers, says the
Springfield Republican, who were
impressively flogged over their geo
graphies in their school-days, mav
possibly call to mind the existence of
a red, green or blue blotch, as the
case may have been, on the map of
Asia, labeled Independent Tartary.
Why anybody should not be "inde
pendent" away off there might be a
pertiment question, which events
are now answering. That indepen
dent country lies high and neutral
between the Russian civilization on
the west and north, the Anglo-Indian
on the south and the Chinese on the
east.
Its independence is no longer re
spected, but is being enroachedupon
ly the Czar. A few weeks ago the
intelligence of hia "surveying ex
peditions" reached western Europe,
and
attracted universal attention.
winch was allaved bv ronorts frnni
St. Petersburg of the "withdrawal"
of the enterprise. Now, however,
the tidings of a new raid into Khiva
or Kheeva are received, and the
British ambassador to Russia hai
notified Orortschakoffthat if Russian
troops penetrate Khiva and Afghani
scan, England will maintain Afghan
muepeiiuence

The city of Khiva, has several thou

spectacle of England and Russia

Prospectus for 1873.Sixtli Year.
T HE A L D INE,
An Illustrated Monthly Journal, universally
uumutea m oe me Jianasomest Periodi
cal in the World. A Representative
and Champion of American Taste.
NOT FOR SALE IN BOOK STORES.
THE ALDINE, which is issued with all
the regularity, has none of the temporary
or timely interest characteristic of ordinary
periodicals. It is an elegant miscellany of
pure, light, and graceful literature ; and a
caiiecuon 01 pictures, the rarest specimens
of artistic skill in black and wliite. Al
though each succeeding number affords a
fresh pleasure to its friends, the real value
and beauty of THE ALDINE will be
most appreciated after it has been bound
tip at the close of the j'ear.
While other publications may claim supe
rior cheapness, as compared with 1 rivals of
a similar class, THE ALDINE is a unique
and original conception alone and unap
proached absolutely without competition
alone and unapproached absolutely
without competition in price or character.
The possessor of a complete volume can
not duplicate the quantity of fine paper and
engravings in any other shape or number
of volumes for ten times its cost r and then,
there are the chromos, besides!
ART DEPARTMENT.
Nolwitlistanding the increase in the
price ot subscription last Fall, when THE
ALDINE assumed its proportions and rep
resentative charcter, the edition more than
doubled during the past year ; proving that
the American public appreciate, and will
support, a sincere effort in the cause of Art.
The publishers, anxious to justify the
ready confidence thus demonstrated, have
exerted themselves to the utmost to devel
ope and improve the work ; and the plans
for the coming year, as unfolded by the
monthly issues, will astonish and delight
even the. most sanguine friends of THE
ALDINE.
The publishers are authorized to an
nounce designs from many of the most
eminent artists of America.
in addition, THE ALDINE will repro-
duee examples of the best foreign masters,
selected with a view to the highest artistic
success, and greatest general interest
avoiding such as have become familiar,
through photographs, or copies of any
kind.
The quarterly tinted plates, for 1873, will
reproduce four of John S. Davis' inimita
ble child-sketches, appropriate to the four
seasons. . These plates,- appearing in the
issues for January, April, July and Octo
ber, would be alone worth the price of a
year's subscription.
1 ne-popular 'features of a copiously illus
trated "Christmas" number will be con
tinued. JLo possess such a valuable enitome of
t the art -world, at a cost so trifling, will
command the subscriptions of thousands
in every, section of the country but,
as the usefulness ; and attraction, of
THE ALDINE ' can be enhanced,
in proportion to the numerical increase of
its suporters, the publishers propose to
make "assurance double sure," by the fol
lowing unparalleled offer of -
t PREMIUM CHROMOS FOR 1873.
j ;'U-;.;;,:'V:';i? p--' '".'
Every subscribe to THE ALDINE, who
pays in advance for the year 1873, will re1
ceive, without additional charge, a pahr of
beautiful ,piI chromosrr after i J. Hill, the
eminent TEnglish painter.; s,The pictures,
entitled "The (Village Belle,'' andr,'Cross
ing the Moor,; are 14x20 inches--are, prin
ted from 25 different, plates, requiring 25
impressions arid tints to perfect each pic
ture. The same .ehromo3 are sold for $30
per pair, in the art Stores- As it is the de
termination of its conductors to keep THE
ALDINE out of the reach of competition
in every department, the chromos will be
found correspondingly ahead of any that
can be offered by other periodicals. Every,
subscriber will - receive a certificate, over
the signature of the publishers, yuatantee
ing that the chromos delivered shall : be
equal to the samples furnished the agent,
or the money will be refunded, .The dis
tribution of pictures of this grade, free to
the subscribers to a five dollar periodical,
will mark an epoch in the history of Art v
and. considering the unprecendented
cheapness of the price for THE ALDINE
itself, the marvel falls little short of a mir
acle, even. to. those best acquainted with
the achievements of .inventive, genius
and improved 'mechanical appliances.
(For illustrations of these chromos, see
November issue of THE ALDINE.) .
