may be esteemed as an approving testimonial. But
such is not the case we disposed rather to at
tribute It to progressive taste for the cultivation Of
Literature. Evidences of this taste are frequently
developed in the multiplication OF periodical works.

FOR THE LADIES' GARIAxn
A FRAGMENT.

= FiAUMENT.
In secluded part of this sweet county
OF Jefferson, there once resided a bannv
family, which consisted of pious old
gentleman, his amiable wife and daueh:
ter. They had retired from the glare
and psrade of a city, and now their only
wish was to see their darling child attain
the age OF womanhood, in the quiet and
peaceful retirement they had fixed on for
their future home. "Yes, any Laura"
The ladies' garland. [volume] (Harpers-Ferry, Va. [W. Va.]) 1824-1828, 1824-04-10

they would often say" to see you happy
is now the only wish Of our hearts; our
prayers shall ascend to that Being who is
the just disposer of all events, that he
will regard you with parents eye. Oh,
that thy life may be as happy as thou art
dutiful and good !"
Laura was young and lovely: Yes, love
ly as the first blush Of morn. Her fea-
lures were not perfectly regular, for there
was SO much Of heaven IN her appearance,
that had it not been for some slight ire
gularity Of feature, the beholder would
have gazed with awe, rather than admira-
ton Her form correspondent with my
idea Of seraph's. She was pure and good.
She was all soul. She appeared at times
more than human. l have often viewed
her in the light of blessed angel, sen, 10
guard, support, and comfort, this aged
couple. 1t appeared as if this Great Be-
ing, who had thus made her so pure and
good, feared that she might be contami-
mated, by longer stay on earth. 1t pleas
ed him, therefore, to take her to himself.
Her health became extremely delicate
and it was evident to her doating parents,
that the lovely plant which they had che
rished with so much fondness, would de-
cay before it blossomed Yet it was evil
dent: The brightness Of her eyes-the
deep flush Of her cheek-the fatal cough
all too plainly told her days were al
most numbered She gradually declined
and at last, without sigh, without one
struggle, she gently sunk to rest in the
bosom Of her redeemer The christian
tortitude with which her parents were ena-
bled to bear this affecting stroke, was
wonderful. They had nothing now to lie
them TO this earth. Their every thought
was now in heaven with their seraph and
their God and il was not long before
their souls enjoyed that rest which is pro
missed to those who trust in God. They
are now happy family in Heaven"
