pupils the distances from which they collected,
and the responsibility of the families to which they
belong 1t has open and airy situation, in
place which is healthy, easy of access, and which
travellers all concur in considering as one of the
pleasantest in the Union The inhabitants of Troy
are noted for the correctness of their moral habits
They take deep interest in the success of their
Female Seminary, and treat the pupils with kind
ness and attention. Besides board of trustees,
selected from among the most respectable of the
male citizens, ten highly respectable ladies are asso

to repair to the feast, he again gave his

SORROW FOR THE DEAD.
by WASHINGTON IRVING.

SORKON FOk HE DEAD
by WASHINGTON IRVING.
The sorrow for the dead is the only sorrow from
which we refuse to be divorced Every other
wound seek to heal; every other affection to
forget-but this wound we consider it a duty to
keep OPEN This afH ction we cherish and brood
over in solitude. Where is the mother who would
willingly forget the infant that persisted, like Bios
som, from her arms, though every recollection is a
pang Where is the child that would willingly for
get the most tender of parents though to remem-
Der be but to lament? Who, even in the hour of
agony, would forget the friend over whom he
mourns Who, even when the tomb is closing up
on the remains Of her he most loved, and he feels
his Heart, as it were, crushed in the closing of its
portals, would accept consolation that to be
bought by forgetfulness NO. the love which sur
wives the tomb is one O. the noblest attributes OF the
soul If it has its woes, has likewise its delights;
and when the overwhelming burst Of grief is Gained
into the gentle tear of recollection; when the sud-
den anguish and the convulsve agony over the pre-
sent runs of all that we most loved is softened away
into persive meditation on all that it in the days
of its loveness-who would root out such sorrow
-
passing cloud even over the bright hour Of gaety
or spread deep sadness over the hour of gloom;
yet who would exchange it even for the song of
pleasure or the burst of revery No, there is a
voice from the tomb sweeter than song There
is recollection of the dead to which we turn even
from the charms of the living. Oh the grave the
grave 1T buries every error--covers every de-
fcct-eXtlngulshes every resentment. From its
peaceful bosom spring none but fond regrets and
tender recOllectons Who can look down upon
the grave even of an enemy, and not feel
punctious throb, that ever he should have varied
with the poor handful of earth that lies Wondering
before him But the grave of those we loved
what place for meditation Then it is that we
call up in long review the whole history of virtue
and genteness, and the thousand endearments Ia
Wished upon us almost UNDECIDED in the daily inter
course Of intimacy ;-then it is that we dwell upon
the tenderness, the solemn, awful tenderness Of the
parting sccne-the bed of DEATH with all it's stihed
griefs its noiscless attendants it's mute watchf as
sidutes-the last testimonies of expiring love--the
| feeble, huttering, thrilling, oh how thrilling
pressure of the hand-the last fond look of the ga-
zng eye, turning upon us even from the threshold
of eXisencethe faint, tltering accents struggling
in death to give one more assurance of affection"
