From the Exeter WGtchnsan.
TO THE ROSE OF AUTUMN,

Gem of the mildly closing year,
On NATURES breast reclining!
Oh! who would leave thy wilderness here
For Bowers, in beauty shining!
Bloom thou along thy native hill,
By no rude hand invaded;
Thy flowers, like hope, shall flourish still.
When all, but thine, have faded.
Go-wreath the pensive form that lies
Ger loves last mansion bending,
And sinks, like day in summer skies.
Or e7ening's star, descending.
Smile on her sable couch of rest,
And droop not thus in sorrow,
For sure the regions Of the blest
Shall be her home tomorrow.
Go-and with fading garlands bind
The dark, stern brow of madness;
And melt that joy-deserted mind
To more than childhood's sadness.
Tell her OF him, whose lowly grave
Shall meet her dark eye, never;
His pillow is the stormy wave,
The deep his home, forever!
Then rest thee, autumn's lingering flower,
In lite's last fragrance lying.
And droop along thy golden bower,
Still lovely, though in dying.
And thou shalt seem, while fading there
In ruin calm reposing,
Like virtue on this scene Of care
Her weary eye-lids closing!

TUB WHEELS.

Some years ago, cunning Vermont wight,
For a new wheel, obtained patent right,
Which, it was said, would carry saw or stone
Compar'd with other kinds, as three to one.
So good and cheap that many wheels were
sold
At triple cost, and more, as some have told
Yet not content with what Vermont could paw
He chang d his course to Massachusetts Bay.
And at an Inn his wheel began to praise
Declared 'twouid grind rye, barley, wheat Oh
maize,
In half the time, and make much better meal
Thana ny other mill, of different wheel;
OF flaming, boiling, sitting, save the whole,
And yield the miller half an extra toll
''Yes' said a stranger, who had sat demure.
"I'll answer fort the principle is sure,
Still greater things Pm happy to reveal,
Of this your wonder working water wheel!
Ilately travelled through your native State.
On business, which need not here relate.
Suffice it was long and tedious way,
: Oppressive warm, sultry summers day,
The houses scarce and taverns scarcer still,
/ calPd to rest a moment, at mill;
Your patent tub tcheel, bless me with what
force,
It's magic power propelled the huge stones

No Earring discord rent the air afar,
twas music, sweeter than the soft guitar!
Here take my grjsi' assail'd me from the
door
A black merino piteously poor,
Painting for breath, to speedy death resign'd,
Was in the hopper thrown and close confnd
One feeble bleat was all its little might,
Aghast turned from this unmeaning sight,
Absorb'din WONDER perfectly amaz'd,
When in the trough, by accident gaz'd,

Those few pale Autumn flowers
How beautiful they are!

How loyelier far!
And why They are the last!
The last the last . the last.

How many thoughts arc stirred;

Pale flowers! pale perishing flowers.
Ye're types of precious things;
Types ofthose better moments
That fit like life S enjoyments,
On rapid, rapid wings.

(That time the fastest spends
Last tears in silence shed,
Last words half uttered,
Last looks of dying friends.
Who but would fain compress

The last day spent with one,
Who ere the mornings sun.

Oh! precious, precious moments
