A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO MY FRIENDS

IN NEW YORK.

I wish you all a sweet New Year

A happy, happy day;

The smiles of Peace, and Love, and Cheer,
Though I am far away.

May Sixty-Six bring treasures rare-
Joys yet to you unknown—
And may ye reap without a tare,
Tenfold what ye have sown!

I cannot clasp your loving hands
As I've been wont to do,

But I will send from foreign lands
This New Year's Gift to you.

Receive it kindly: I regret

The gems unworthy are

The casket wherein they are set-
And of your fost'ring care.

LONDON, 23 Oct, 1865.
