" 0! vale, where oft my woes I've Fultz;
Stream! thig my tears arc wont to swell;
And all ye peaceful tribe, who dwell
These groves, Obese chores, these waves among !

" Air! that my sighs have gently fann'd,
Sweet path, that sow hut iesd'.t to pain;
And bill helov'd, where rosin ill rain
My lonely steps at Lore's command!

" In ye the well-known Cnrnin I trice;
Myself how dimmed !—this spot, once Licit,
To me tte abode of initer grown;
Laura no more these meads slia:l grace;
Her earthly spoils here silent iett ;
Her spit it free'd, to Heas•'o is flown."

" Life swiftly Ries, our waits une hoar;
Death close pursuer will. hssty stride;
Present and past hy turns u'erpower,
Aud future cares my life

" Now mem'ry's pangs my sorrows make,
Now expectation, foe to ease;
Till pity on myself I take,
Or madness soon my mind would seize.

" Lel him who loves the sorrowing mind,
Its kindred meek, to me repair;
In vain I brave the stormy wind,
My fragile bark but meets despai►,
No longer on the wave to ride,
Since lost for aye her °wig guide."

BRIGHTON, OctosEa 19.

Although we are approaching the end of Octo-
ber, we perceive scarcely any diminution iu the
number of our v]sitors. Applications have helot
made by many noble families within the lost week
for houses; and every vacancy which occurs is
Allen up with the utmost avidity. The larger por-
tion of strangers residing here are evidently from
the mercantile ranks; but they spend their money
freely, and are highly distieguidied for liberality
of spirit.
Mr. Mortlock, whose exertions the came of
benevolence are ever arrive and noweeried, is on a
visit to the Rev. Lewis W.,y, at Ills begonia' seat
at Sianstead Park.

The vocalist, Pearman, is enzsged at Donald-
son's Library, and attriets, by his melodies, very
crowded audiences.—The loos, by this means, are
made to fill rapidlyi uud the spirited proprietor is
justly rewarded.
At Toppeies, Miss Forde maintains her high re-
putation. This young lady has firmly established
herself as a favourite at Brighton.
IVe are happy to see that Mr. I'err' has per-
fectly recovered his health. He came to Brighton
sofiesing under an attack of rheumatism; but the
salubrious air of the place, and the use of Mahe-
med's vapour bath, have entirely removed the com-
plaint.
THE THEATEE.—During the performance of the
entertainment on. Saturday evening lust (Dowtoti7s
night), the house, from a failure in the gsa, became
suddenly immured iii darkness, as incident which
occasioned nitwit merriment. In a short period, how-
ever, the supply was renewed, -and •tlse: vapour
yielded its wonted streams of radiant light; The
only auxiliary we have at present is Miss Henley:
she appears in llosulnul to-morrow evening.
