TO MY LOVE IN HEAVEN.

IPROM THE BRIGHTON MAGAILIM

In Ileav'n, sweet shade ! supremely blest
Thou, in the climes of endless rest.

An Angel dolt appear—
And from some star's attainkes height,
Tsneinetured In unfading light,
Perchance, thou boniest pitying sight
On him that lingereth Isere!

Oh! could I midst night's watch-fires tell
That sainted orb where thou dsst dwell,
How would mine anxious eye
Its set.—its rise--its glorious way—
Its fancied realms of peace surrey;
Till e'en Its most enfeebled ray
Endearment would supply !

Perchance, thou view'st my pensive gaze,
As musing on some planet's blase
I vainly look for thee :
Then guard me with seraphic wing,
And watch each heedless wandering,
And o'er my path th' assuagements Bing
(X calm felicity!

I would not sail thee from thy sphere
Of happiness, to sojourn here

A denizen of woe,
For Heav'n itself—since Ileav'n is thine;
But let thine eye but smile on mine,
And ev'n this earth to me will shins
A Paradise below !

A young woman, named Bryson, was out on a
projecting rock in Binion Bay, Ennishowen, on the
16th ultimo, gathering duke, when a wave swept her
into the sea. Knowing how to swim, she kept her-
self a considerable time above water, but notwith-
standing, and though her perilous situation was seen
by several upon the shore, yet the weather was so
tempestuous that no boat would venture out; the con-
sequence was, the poor girl perished.
Wednesday, as Mr. Ed.. and Preston, one of the
Police Officers of Liverpool, was talking with an ac-
quaintance near a newly-built wall in Robert-street,
I,Vaterloo-road, a large part of the wall suddenly fell
down and overwhelmed him in the ruins, so that he
was killed on the spot.

On the SOth ult. a steam-boiler, belonging to Mr.
Bout.r, tobacco-manufacturer, of Chester, exploded,
while Mr. Boms and four of his men were standing
close to the machine, owing to the safety-valve being
improperly overloaded. The men were thrown back,
all of them being dteadfullr scalded and bruised, so
much so, that one of them, Richard Wildman, died
of his wounds on Monday evening. Two others now
lie in a dangerous, but not a hopeless state, in the In-
firtnary. Mr. Bouts was forced with his breast on a
grindstone, and was nearly buried in the ruins caused
by the explosion ; and in this situation a heavy beam I
fell upon his back. Prompt assistance was had from
the neighbours, and the rubbish being removed, the
sufferers wereextricated. Mr. Bout.r was carried to
an adjoining public-house, and in the evening was re-
moved to his own house, in Foregate street ; symp-
toms of inflammation became apparent, and Mr.
Boma. was in extreme pain, but he was calm and
,llected, making repeated inquiries after the welfare
of his men. About eleven o'clock on Tuesday night
he was relieved from his misery by death.

Friday morning, during the tremendous storm, the
inhabitants of Lamb's-passage, Chiswell-street, were
a'armed by a fireball falling, which passed about a
foot from the window of a back room, on the second
floor, of Mr. TREEVEY'S house, No. 6. Mr. TREEVEY
was sitting at work in the room, which was apparently
in a blaze of fire at the moment, and accompanied
with a sulphureous smell. Mr. TREEVEY describes it
to be about the size of a cricket-ball, and about ten
feet from the earth it exploded.

Tux SEASON.—The forwardness of the season has
been repeatedly noticed, and it is a subject of just
congratulation to the country. The hay harvest has
long been completed ; it was very productive. There
has been new hay in the markets for two or three
weeks past. But the subject now more particularly
worthy of notice is Me commencement of the wheat har-
vest I The corn is everywhere in a very forward
state, and there is the promise of full average crops.
Wheat was yesterday cut just below Maidenhead,
in Berkshire, about thirty miles from London.—
It was uncommonly fine and full eared: it nkturally
attracted a good deal of curiosity. Thus has the cut-
ting of wheat begun in England with the commence-
ment of July ; and that not in one or two fields, but
very extensively—a thing not remembered to have
taken place in this country, it is said by some old
farmers, for nearly half a century. Thursday se'n-
night there was new barley in Penzance market,
and new samples have since been arriving, as there
are many fields cut down in the neighbourhood.
The hay is also well saved, having been stacked in
fine weather.
