LOVE AND HOPE

LONb AMI SlOI6
IN Youths enchanting morning hour,
When Life's Elusive scenes were news
Love reared for me bonny flower,
And watered it with heavenly dew.
Ave Love had happily arrayed,
That blooming flower in loneliness,
And Hope a rainbow had portrayed
Upon my sky Of Happiness.
The Rose ofLove--O where hath sped,
The rich unearthly bloom it wore!-
The Arch Of Hope--O W here hath He'd,
Tn enchantment which that vision bore'
o infant Love may never rear,
As fair a Rose to greet my eye;
And Hope may never paint as dear
A rainbow, on my summer sky.
Aye though the bonny Rose is dead,
The faded fowerless stalk is lett;
To breathe offragrance that has Red,--
OF Joys of which the heart is reft.
All! nv fond heart can ne'sr forget,
The Rose of Love that bloomed day
Yet must It mark with vain regret,
Hopes bow of promise fade away. K.

tains an article of upwards OF two columns addressed
to the editors OF that paper by Mr.. Adams, touch
ling the controversy between him and MFR. Russell
We have not room for the whole letter. The first
part is taken up in en- argument to prove, that the
dispute Is not altogether of personal nature, but Of
Importance to the country, and in some cursory re-
marks on the two great questions of the fisheries and
navigation OF the Mississippi, involved in the dis.

that the course pursued by Mr. Russell was Meth.

his colleagues" 1t will be seen by The following
extract, that the controversy is about to assume
