Man loves OF Improvement to talk and to dream,
That may bless some future race,
lie aims at success, and its golden beam
He pursues in restless chase
Inc world grows old, and grows young again,
But the hopes of Improvement forever remain.
lis BY hope that man into life is led;
She tfutters round boyhood's bloom,
Ger youth her brilliant enchantments are spread
She sleeps not with age in the tomb
Lies weary labors are closed in the grave
But DER 1t the branches Of hope grcenly wave.

And tlatters to cheas the mind,
How deeply each bosom its truth can proclaim,
For Improvement is man designed
And ne'er does the voice from within us deceive
The spirits that hope, or the hearts that believe.

VARIETY.
THE CONSCIENTIOUS ACTOR.


There is species of grateful remorse which
has sometimes been known to operate forcibly
the minds of the most hardened in impu-
dencc. Towards the beginning of this century,
an actor celebrated for mimicry, to have
been employed by comic author. to take off
the person, the manner and the singularly awb-
ward delivery of the celebrated DIR. Woodward.
who was intended to be introduced on the stage
IN laughabe character The mimic dressed
himself as countryman, and waited on the
doctor with long catalogue of ailments which
he sald attended on his wife The physician
heard with amaZement diseases and pains of the
opposite nature. repeated and redoubled on the
"retchcd patient For, since the actors great
est wish was to keep DIR. Woodward in his com
Pany as long as possible, that he might make
the more observations on his gestures he load
fd his poor imaginary spouse with every mfr
mlty which had any probable chance of pro
longing the interview. At length having be
come completely master of his Grand he drew
from his purse guinea, and. with scrapc.
made an uncouth offer of it. Put up thy mo
ney, poor fellow" cried the doctor. put up thy
money Thou hast need of all thy cash. and all
thy patience too, with such a bundle of diseases
tied to thy back"
The actor returned to his employer, and re-
counted the whole conversation with such true
feeling of the physicians character, that the
author screamed with appreciation His rap
lures were soon checked, for the mimic told
HIM. with the emphasis Of sensibility that he
would sooner die than prostitute his talents to
the rendering such genuine humanity public
laughing stock.

POETRY Y.
FROM THE LONDON LITERARY GAZETTE

APRIL.
OF all the months that fill the year
Give April's month to me,
For earth and sky are then so filled,
With sweet variety
The apple-blossoms' shower of pearl,
The pear-tree's rosier hue,
AS beautiful as women's blush,
As evanescent too.
The purple light, that like a sigh
Comes from the violet bed,
AS there the perfumes of the East
Had all their odours she'd.
The wildbriar rose, fragrant cup
TO hold the mornings tear;
The bird's-ele, like sapphire star,
The primrose, pale like fear,
The balls that hang like drlfted snow
Upon the guederose,
The woodbine's fairy trumpets, where
The elf his war-note blows.
On every bough there is bud,
In every bud flower;
But scarcely bud or flower will last
Beyond the present hour.
Now comes shower-cloud DER the skv.
Then all AGAIN sunshine;
The clouds again, but frightened With
The rain-bow's coloured line.
Aye, this, this is the month for me
! could not love scene,
Where the blue sky was ALWAYS blue.
The green earth always green.
Ills like love; oh, love should be
An everchanging thing =
The love that could worship must
BE ever on the wing.
The chain my mistress Angs round me
Must be both brief and bright;
Or formed of opals, which Will change
With every changing light.
Tomorrow she must turn to signs
The smiles she wore to-day
This moments look of tenderness,
The next one must be gay.
Sweet April thou the emblem art
OF what my love must be;
One varying like the varying bloom
Is just the love for me- LIE
