MAGAZINES, &C -(CONTINUED.)

AINSWORTIL

Additional chapters of the " Lancashire 'Witches"
lend their customary charm to Ainsworth, and, among
the rest of its attractions, not the least is another in-
stalment of the series called " Shaksperiana." Several
of the contributions this month are of that lively and
agreeable st)le must welcome to the generality of
magazine readers—gossippicg essays, amusing anec-
dotes, and humorous stories being among-A the num-
ber of these kind of favourites. Foremost of these
in Ainsworth for January are the " Tale of a Carpet
Bag," and " The Loves of Mr. Collars." Mr. Ed-
ward Thomas has penned an article which merits
perusal, entitled " The Tables Turned," and Corne-
lius Colville another designated " A Night on the
Brooker)." Besides these there are further portions
of " The Confederates," and of " Velthinas ; or the
Ordeal of Sacrifice," together with " Notes of a
Loiterer in the Pyrenees, the said loiterer being
Henry Cooke of Peterborough. As the poetic con-
tribution for the month we quote the following very
graceful stanzas from the pages of Ainsworth :

WE HAVE NO SYMPATHIES APART.
By E. E. M. K.

We have no sympathies apart,
The self-same tastes control—
Oet large eujeyment fills each heart,
the faith pervades each soul.
We love together' earth and sky,l
The woods, the waves, the flowers;
The wondrous realms of poesy,
Euterpe's dulcet powers.

One bright enthusiasm guides
.fur spirits day by day;
So. had the world no gift besides,
This were a gift alwayl;
Th. sarae soft strain will snake us weep;
Our laughter and our tears
Spontaneous gust), while e'en in sleep
A dream resemblance wears!

No hour to ()Le alone conveys
A sense of bliss or woe;
Through the companionship of days
Alike our feelings flow.
'Twas thus, too, iu our childhood's years,
When hopes were budding round:
Oh! how that memory enders
The rapture newly found!

As hand in hand, and side by side,
True as in days of old,
Wit% beating hearts, and looks of pride,
Each other we behold:
Thou, with the flush of manly health
Upon they frank, kind face,
While o'er it still, is sunny wealth,
Thy boyhood'6 mile I trace;

I, with a softer mein than o'er
My childish features wore,
As if tiaw's brooding weight of care
Had made me gentler than of yore:
Dear playmate of those golden times,
When fiction's fairy word
Seemed wise as truth, and Sabbath chimes
The gravest sound we heard!

I will not wish this meeting back,
And yet perchance it weaves
A shadow for our future track,
Like autumn's fated leaves.
We have not met to be less fond—
Our very sympathies
Seem round us like a solemn bond
That's sanctioned by the skies.

We have not met to part unmoved—
To part with laughing brow;
If in our childhood's days we loved,
Say are we colder now ?
Enough—l will not cloud the hours
Yet left to us—Elate
Thy step shall be thro' life's fair bowers—
Mine is a darker fate.
Immediately before these verses the reader finds the
account of an enthralling " Legend of Whitby," and
immediately after Miss Julia Addison's continuation
of " Florence Hamilton," with which the January
number is brought to a conclusion.
