my support without pension. But IL any Other

When we consider how few there are whom we
really esteem, we must not be surprised that SO few
esteem us.
The best form of government is that which estab.
fishes the most effective guards against the impro-

A good reputation is hard to acquire, and harder
to preserve like glass of curious workmanship,

THE LAST SONG.
By BARRY CORNWALL.

Must it be Then farewell,
Thou whom my woman's heart cherish'd so loni
Farewell and be this song
The last wherein say, 81 lov'd thee well y
Many weary strain,
Never yet heard by thee, hath this poor breath
Uter'd, of Love ard Death,
And maiden grief, hidden and child in vain.
Oh if in after years
The tale, that am dead, shall touch thy heart,
Bid not the pain depart,
But shed over my grave few sad tears.
Think of me, still so young,
Silent, though fond, who cast my lille away,
Daring to disobey
The passionate Spirit that around me chung.
Farewell again! and yet
Must it indeed be so-and on this shore
Shall you and no more
Together see the san OF summer set
