Death. Come When Thou Wilt, Cold Anodyne...
DEATH . Come when thou wilt , cold anodyne , I fear thee not ; Let all these hopes and dreams of mine Be lost , forgot . Life hath been too unkind to me For years and years ; I give her broken toys to thee—Her bitter tears . Quench bat those tears and still that heart , What matter then ? Is it so hard a thing to part With light and men ? Life bound me hand and foot a slave , Her fetters rust ; Better the freedom of the grave—Mix dust with dust .
N . City Houses . —Amid the general demolition of the City now in progress , there is one cause which contributes to it and will accelerate it which has received little attention ; and that is the fact tlat many of the houses built after the great fire of 1666— -that is to say a great part of the City—are in a very dilapidated condition . The public buildings of that date are mostly solid and good enough , and particularly those designed or superintended by Wren ; but some of the companies ' halls—as the Weavers , pulled down last year—were vamped up of rubbish . Some of the mansions in the City are well and solidly- built , but a very great many houses vrete run up after the fire with whatever
material could be got , and are very ill-construe ted too . The joinery is often of bad timber and very ill done by inferior hands , workmen being got together from all the country parts and from Holland also . Thesehouses have now stood nearly two hundred years , and have suffered various vicissitudes , not among the least having been the sewer and drainage operations , which , have sapped their foundations and affected their bearings . Then there have been fixes in adjoining houses , or the demolition of adjoining houses—a -test very unwelcome to a weak and ill-constructed house . Within the house , the rat , the mouse , and the worm have been at work operating on the timbers , and an occasional leak , or the overflow of a closet , have all had their share in the long lapse of time in weakening the houses ; nox must we omit the jobbing bricklayer or Irish labourer , brought in to do some cheap repair and effecting no . small
mischief . Even good houses cannot bear these injuries -without suffering , but it is a miracle how some of the clieaper houses , run up after the fire , lave stood , and in a , less wealthy population they would be in a most dilapidated state . All the houses before the fire bear date of not less than two centuries , and some have their three or four centuries to account for , and the sewers have been no friends to them ; but the lowness of their floors is now felt as such , an inconvenience that they are generally out of favour , so that , whenever a chance offers , the old houses share the fate of their later brethren , and are pulled down . Sometimes , under the present system of large offices and warehouses , an additional house is annexed at a good price , and whenever the temptation of . putting up a large block of offices presents itself , the landlord is likewise tempted to rebuild . —Euildinq News .
