THE FALL OF BEAUTY.

From q dramatic tale, entitled, "Ihe Hunting Of
Badle1Ve :" the unknown author Of which the crit
les almost venture to rank with Shakespeare The
following beautiful inc ident is narrated. TO wARs
BasE DEsIGss
ONCE on lovely day--it was in SPRING
rested on the height of that dread cliff,
That overooks old Sterling All was gay
The birds sang sweet the trees put forth their
leaves
SO pale, hat in the sun .hey look'a like blossoms;
The Wild thyme and the violet deck d the sward
On which i lay, scsnhng the air with SlOeeb,
Some ehi Grcu wandered careless on the hill,
Selecting early flowers. My heart reJoiced.
ror all was glad around me. One sweet maid
game tripping near, cycling. with gladstone smile,
Each ,tte flower that boomd upon the hill
Nimbly she pick'd them, 'mnding me Of the swan
That feeds upon the waste. biest the CIR,
She nol maid nor child but of that age.
'Twixi both when purity of frame and soul
Awaken dreams OF beauty drawn in heaven.
Deep within . little den, within the cliff,
How'rct caught her eye-it was a primrose,
Fair hount'ng in the sun. With eager haste,
JIcedies5 u risk, she c,ambered down the steep,
Piuck'd the wish'd fower-and sighd for when
she
The depth she had descended. then she woke
To sense o. danger All her flowers she dropt.
And 'r,ed to gain the height 6nt tried IN vain
1haste1 to ner rescue /; but-alas
< came too late
ANNA % God and did she fall
RAN Yes, lady far, far down on the rocks be.
Her lovely form was found at rest
I saw hec in mid air. fa, like a seraph
From out of the 6rmanent. The rocks and DAVIS,
That H-'' heir roost in thousands at the sight,
Cuptnn her Kit from my paisied eye
And dizzy brain. y never viii that scene
Par from my heart whene'er l would be sad,

TO TIE LADIES.


That a good wife should be Ike three hhirgsj
which three things she hould nor be ike:
Ersf. She should be like a snail, always
Keep within her own house but sho should
not be like a snail, TO carry all she nae Hhon

Secondly, She should be like an rho, to
speak when she is spoke to; but she should
no, be like an echo, always 10 have the last
.vord.
2nirdly, She should be like a forun- clock,
always keep time and regularity; but she
should not &c like fovun. clock, TO speak so
loud that oil the town may hear her,
a young gentleman having occasion to
ssh isdy for the sDuffers across the table,
addressed her in he following truly emphatic
and enamoured strain ;--Most beautiful, ac-
somplished, and charming lady, will your la
5yshp, by an unmerited and undeserved con-
desconsion OF your infinite goodness, please
20 extend to you, most obsequious, devoted

trescences Of this nocturnal cylindric lumio-
ary, In order that the refulgcnt brigh,nsss Of
its resplendent brilliancy may dszzIe the Wis.

SOLON, the celebr ated legislator Of Athens
was on a visit to Thales, the sage OF M,.etus.
Ono day after conversing for some time With
tha, Philosopher, he said 10 him " l am as.
eouished Thales, ,ha, you never chose TO mar

zion you would take pleasure" Thales made
no im ediate reply. But, some days after,
he prevailed upon person to enter into bi,
views, pretending to be stranger come to
pay the m visit, and jus, srtived from Athens.
"Well," said Solon land what news ;" Moth
ing 50 far as know" replied the stranger,
"except the burial Of young Ahenian, whose
fun-rs. was accompanied by ibo whole ci,y

could not forbear ssking, "whe,het t n;gt,

the strange, with an air Of confidence. Solon
was affected with such violent and poignant
sorrow, that he began to rend his clothes, to
tear his hair, and 10 s'rIke hrs head in fine
he failed IN nothing which is usually said or
done by those who are ususportec with sos-
row. What" said Thsles, "avsils weeping

which cannot be repaired by all the tears 10

Thsles began at last TO laugh at he differ

COUGHS AND CONSUMPTION.

THIS new and healing Balsam bids fair TO rival
every Medicine heretofore discovered for
Coughs and complaints of the Lungs, leading TO
Consumption, and even in seated Consumptons it
has lately been used by many with the most SUR
prlsing success. If certificates from persons Of the
highest respectabiiity, the great and increasing
demand for it, may be called proof of its good ct
fects, it is proved. Scarcely case of Colds,
Coughs, pain in the side, difficulty Of breathing,
want OF sleep arising from debility even Con-
sufnp ions, but may be relieved by the timely uE
OF this medicine. Many certificates of it's f!cacy,
accompany each bottle.
This may certify 10 those whom it may concern
that have been extremely afflicted with the Aslh-
ma, which has lasted ne nearly forty years, and
great part of that time to such degree that
could not lay in bed nor sit in meeting witi,uus
