bring tear into your eye, before the smile had left
your lp-he all hope and happiness.
Suddenly he stood before me an altered being
his eye had grown melancholy and full Generalization.
It's moisture was often succeeded by flash and
its fire again extnguished in the trembling tear
He Stunned the rude clamor Of the busting world,
and would steal away into some solitary recess, and
in the still shade of the forest ponder the sweet
ness of his sorrow. His mind became almost
world of itself, and thousands of visions rose ODE
dent at the call of creative thought-his SOUL lift
ed high on fancys wing, would explore, in its wild
and beautiful career the fathomess regions of ina
gination, through all the variety of its magnificent
domain. He loved deeply, devotedly. 1t was more
than love-t was alteration. The object of his pas
sion all that woman could be. There is no OBJ
ect, in all creation, half SO splendid such being
the charms that are diAused through the whole
universe seemed gathered together in her.
When the sun is going down in the West, he
leaves behind him track of bright light, but it is
insipid when compared to the light of her eye
The fragrance of the not so delicious as the
warmth of her breath-music could wake no melo-
dy like the thrilling tones of her voice. Her mo-
ton was graceful than the heave of the sea,
or the change of the cloud, and the magic of mind,
cleaning through all her words, and looks, and &C
tons, shed around her charm more grateful than
Arabian incense.
No wonder my hero bowed down before hers no
wonder that the sound of her voice was always in
his ear, that her image before him in his daily
occupations and bore part in the mysterious chan
ges of his dream. There was no affectation in her
nature, and she confessed she loved him-they
seemed created for each other-and who would
have believed that fate-but am DEPRESSING.
There is something very melancholy in the re-
Election that any woman can die but to him that
she should perish, was the very agony of despair
He had left her for few days, intending when he
returned to have asked her hand. On the morning
of his return, he sprang into the stage-coach, in
most delicious revere. He held no discourse with
his fellow passengers, but wrapped himself up in
rich dream of anticipation His heart was full of hap
piness. He thought himself as he entered his house,
too happy tor mortal man. He was preparing to
pay her the first visit and dwelling in his mind on
her pleasing welcome, when her brother came to
see him-he did not observe any thing peculiar
about him at first, and not till the warm afectionate
shake of the hand was over did he notice that his
eyes were filled with tears, and dismal, gloomy,
black Grape hung from his hat He started, and in
hollow voice, that had desoate dreariness in
every tone, he said,
