THE EVENING STAR

My %Ley dear ! if, like the Sage
Whose pencil 'mongst the moon-besms stole,
And " made her disk the ample page,"'
The mirror of his glowing soul—
Beoved one! if, indeed, 'twere mine
To trace on Heaven what HEAVEN
How brightly should my wishes shine,
'Till even the dull cold world adrnied!

But moons will change,—and thoughts so dear
Would monthly fade,—thnugh ne'er decay :

Whilst faithful stars retain their sphere,
And glad the skies with constant ray.
Then, MART dear! when ab.enee tar
Detain'll the friends my soul log.l best,
I'd make a page of every star
From Indus to our beamy West.
And in Night's still and noiseless hour.,
Methinks It were a task divine,
On orbs that light our Island-bowers,
To speed my heart's fond thoughts to thine.
And when to every star that play.
My pencil's magic touch were given,
Thy soul might deem th' enamoured rays
A galaxy of Love in Heaven !
But have we not, when day-!fight shed
Its parting smile along the sea,
And twilight, o'er the mountain's head,
Came on, with sweet serenity ;

Have we not hailed and blessed the gem
That was to grace the Crown of Night,
Sparkling in Evening's diadem—
Like love-beams in thine eyes of light ?
That, that of all, beloved ! I prize,
My brilliant tablet that should bt,
Unfading in its world of skies,
The talisman that glowed for thee !
And would'st thou not in silence gaze,
Till thy fond sight no more could bear,
To trace my wishes In its rays,
Or fancy what I cyphered there?
Then if one beam the brighter shone,
I'd think it was my Ablte's smile,
As conscious thus, when day was done,
My tablet might her thoughts beguile.
Oh light of bliss—too rarely given !
Still in celestial fancy shine,
For whilst our wishes meet in Heaven,
Our souls' communion Is divine ! hi. Y. N.

The Times English journal is, as we before stated,
salaried by My Lord POLIGN Ac ; from him he receives
intimate and confidential communications. Lately one
of the editors of this journal arrived in Paris, to concert
with his said English Excellency.
Galignani's Messenger announces that other Engiish
journals have followed the example : in consequence the
Standard has sent Mr. M—, as the Times deputLd
Mr. A—; the Morning Journal and the Age have
also their representatives—Messrs. A— and W—.
Figaro.—This impertinent wag has the indecency to in-
sert the respectable names in full—he should be pursued
for libel.

If Duns sometimes play tricks to creditors, the latter
are not always ungrateful. A young officer, whose morn-
ing slumbers were daily invaded by a clamorous usurer,
imagined the expedient of warming the key of his room
to a burning heat ; which, upon hearing as usual the
unwelcome step of his approaching importunate visiter,
be placed in the key-hole outside, and then comfortably
placed himself in his arm chair. As soon as the peculiar
knock which distinguished a dun was heard, he exclaim-
ed " Come in ;" A shout like the music of Tartarus fol-
lowed ; and in an instant the creditor eclipsed like ma-
gic ;—pauvre Jacques.—We recommend the hint to our
fashionable world.
Under Louis XIV. a Polignac thus significantly ex-
pressed himself to the Dutch :—" We shall treat of you,
amongst you, and without you." So it appears under
Charles X. a Polignac dares inform the English that he
will treat of the French, amongst the French, and with-
out the French.—Fiyaro.
For a long time the Police Correctionelle has been
privileged to judge in matters of conjugal quarrel. But
lately, it seems, a serious attempt was made to extend
its respectable jurisdiction, by submitting a love dispute
to the wisdom of its judgment. An old officer presented
himself with indignity before that tribunal, stretching
forth his attesting finger, martyrdised with an unlovely
scar ; and feelingly set forth-that it was MadIe.TIIIBAULD
who had thus inflicted the cruel injury with her teeth, in
the winding up of a discussion in which she permitted
herself, most indecorously, to indulge in various descrip-
tions of ungentle extravagance. Upon which the pri-
soner demanded of the haughty offender a hat motives
had induced her to demean herself so obstropolously ?
To which she thus replied with afflicting firmity :
" The plaintiff gave a rendezvous—and broke it. I
sought him—reproached him,--he was impertinent and so
—I bit him." " Why did you give him a rendezvous ?"
(With decision)—" He is my lover." Plaintiff—
" Your lover !---hem---that is to say, you are my ser-
vant." Advocate for the accused---"• Yes ! your ser-
vant; but then be it remarked,---there was only one bed
in the house."

In vineyard countries it is the custom to baptise wines
after any remarkable event at the time being—such as
Comet-wine, and so forth. It appears that in Champagne
this year, they mean to call their wine Labourdonnaye—
because it is detestable and wont keep.- Figaro.
The censorship of theatrical pieces is now a depart-
ment of the Secret Cabinet of the Home Ministry.—
Pandore.

An honest man has just received, without any provo-
cation whatever, a visit from M. MA NG IN !—We merely
ask if this is moderation ?—Figaro.
" What is your name, Sir ?" " Agathocles."—
" Your profession ? "—" Consumer." Such was the
account given of himself by a gentleman lately accused
of having consumed a silver spoon with his soup in an
eating house.—Le Mentor.
Madame VESTRIS being lately asked her maiden
name, replied that she could no longer remember it.
Unless our authority sticks more to truth, we must
change his name from Mentor to Menteur..
They have introduced from England a lithographic
sketch, representing King William planting his banner
on Limerick, inscribed with the Orange motto, "Je
Maiatiendrai."—Paradore. We catch the sneer. • • •

It was time that Rossawi should leave this country,
all harmony for the present being hopeless in France.—

A Committee of the House of Commons was appointed
a few years since, to inquire into tke state of Lunatic
Asylums in Ireland. The clerk of this Committee, in
affixing the usual notice upon the door of the loom where
it was held, for the guidance of individuals who had to
attend to it, unfortunately worded it in the following
manner : " The Committee of Irish Lunatics."
