THE BLEEDING HEART.

Oh, take again the Bower you gave,
There seems a spell of witchery in it,
•
For all my thcughts are like the grave
While gazing on its leaves this minute
To know from whom the Bew'ret came,
And keep the busy thoughts apart,
Can ne'er be while it bas the name,
The thrilling name—" the Bleeding Heart r
The sun bath look'd upon hs leaves,
Tile blasting winds have brntb'd upon it,
And now it droops like one that grieves,
Silent, when thoughtless eyes are on it;--
Oh, take it ! and let not the dew
The emblem of its tears impart.
To be thus torn from where it grew,

In many of the country churches in France, the men
are 'taloned on one side, the women on the other. Now,
it so happened, that one day, when the preacher was
holding forth. he heard a conversation among his au•
dience which sadly distracted his attention. Of Louise
he made bitter complaints, on which a woman, anxious
to vindicate the honour of her sex, jumped up and said,
The talking is not on our side, rather." " I am de-
lighted to hear it, •my love," replied the clergyntA,
u for it will be over the sooner." _
