The man in the moon LOOKED down one night,
Where a lad and his lass were walking;
Thinks he there must be very huge delight
In this kissing and talking
And so there must, Cts well known case,
For it lasts both late and early
SO they talked him down till he covcr'd his face,
They tired his patience fairly
Then up rose the sun in his morning beams,
And pushed back his night-cap to greet them;
Says he" AS you boast of your darts and flames,
My darts and my flames shall meet them"
He scorch'd them both through the live-long day,
But they never once seemed to mind him,
But laughed outright as he skulkd away,
And left dark world behind him.
Then the man in the moon look'd down i'll pet,
And said-''I believe can cure you
Though my brother has faiPd, may conquer yet
If not, must try to endure you.

And Danish all thoughts of sorrow,
Then marry at once, you couple Of fools,
And you'll both be wise Tomorrow

An Angel left her place in heaven,
And crossed the wanderers sunless path.
Twas Art ! sweet AIT new radiance broke,
Where her light foot flew DER the ground;
And thus with seraph voice she spoke,
''The Curse blessing shall be found.''
She led him through the trackless wild,
Where noontide sunbeam never blazed -

And nature gladdened as she gazed.

The village grows, the city springs,
And point their snires Of faith to heaven

When upon the western cloud

When the linnet sings aloud,
And the twilight Closes
AS mark the moss-grown spring,
By the twisted holly,
Pensivc thoughts of thee Shall brine
Loves OWN melancholy.
I5o. the crescent moon on high,
Lights the half chok'd fountain,
Wandering winds steal sadly by
From the hay mountain -
Yet that moon shall WAY and wanc--
Summer winds pass over,
Nc'er the heart shall love again
OF the sighted lover =
When the russell Autumn brings
Blighting to the forest,
Twisted close the ivy clnes
TO the oak that's hoarcst
SO the love Of other DAYS
Cheers the brokcn-hearteti,-
But if once our love decays,
lis for aye departed.
When the hoar frost nips the !c.f,
Pale and scar it fingers,
Wasted in its beauty brief
BY decays cold fingers:
Yet unchang' dit ne'cr again
Shall its bloom recover;
Thus the heart shall aye remain
Of the sighted lover.
Love is Ike the songs we hear
Der the moonlight ocean -
Youth-the spring-time of the year,
Pass'd in loves devotion =
Roses of their bloom bereft
Breathe a fragrance sweeter,
Beauty has no fragrance left,
Though its bloom is heeter.
Then when tranquil evening throws
Twilight shades above thee,
And when early morning glows,
Think of those that love thee
For an interval of years,
We ere long must sever,
But the hearts that love endcars,
Shall be parted never.

that they can hardly be considered as

When oil Carthagcna, on the 18th Of Feb.

which hosted American Colors, and order
ed the Sicily to back her maintopsail, and
send her boat alongside. These orders
were complied with, but on boarding the
frigatc, he found, by their turbans and wide
trowsers, that the crew were not American
They were very polite, and conducted him
along the gang way, through a file of sur
wants, white and black, into the after cabin
where he found venerable looking man
with black beard, lolling upon cushion.
