Where, scattered by the sharp winds breath
Beneath the rugged Cliff were thrown
The strong belt and tie moulderng bone

On the green wales with scolching fame
And made the woodlands FAINT with thirst

And the grey eagle breasts tile cloud
Where was the warriors foot, when night
Yelled in thick cloud the mountain height
None heard the loud and sudden crash,-
None saw the fallen warrior dash

Butt that dropped not in tie chase
Made on the hills his burial place.
They found him there, when the long day
Of Geld dcsertion passed away,
And traces on that barren cleft
OF struggling hard with death were left
Deep marks and foot prints in TIE clay!

There is a parting in Nights murkyveiI,
A SOFT, pale light is in the eastern sky;
It steals along the ocean temblngly,
Like distant music waited on the gale.
Stars, one by one, grow FAINT, and disappear,
Like waning tapers, when the feast IS DER;
While, girt with rolling mists, tie mountains boa
High DER the darkhng glens their tops uprear.
There is gentle rustling in the grove,
Though winds be hush'd; it's the stir of wings,
And now the 5ky-lark from her nest upsprinrs,
Ir!lllng, in accents clear, her song of love;
And now heavens gate in golden spiendour burns
Joy TO the earth, the glorious Sun returns

Out Of tac chambers u thy watery dwelling

Thy parting ray il golden hue Is stealing
For then the gush Of soft and pensive feeling
Speaks to the labouring bosom, peace, be stn
But thou art not 50 lovely to mine eye

EARLY DEATH.

That 'lhe house of mourning is bet
ter than the house Of feasting," is q
sentiment remembered by all when
the cold hand of sorrow is wringing
The brow; bu; the lesson is learned at
the death bed, and is apt to be left at
the grave. The voice that should
speak wisdom from the tomb, is drown
ed in The closing of the portals; and
the coffin and the mention descend
like into the darkness of forget.ulness.
Death is always clad in terrors, even
when it is the aged head that bows
before him; but there is something pc
c~uliarly melancholy when his shaft
strikes the young and the beautiful,
and the happy. 1t was not TO be ex-
pected that the ripe fruit should not fall,
that the fair ear should not be gather
ed into the garner, but that the young
and tender bud, opening and blossom
inc amid the summer breeze, should
shrink and whi,b,r as before the blast
of mildew. 1t was not to be eXpec-
ted, when the scar leaf of autumn is
falling, and the full blown rose scat
tering its leaves, when their hoary
grain is gathering to the harvest, that
the hoary head too should not lie low.
But when then arrows of the destroy.
ers strike the young in their youth,
and the happy amid their happiness,
and those whom we love in the bloom
of their loneliness; when the warm
tide ofour affections as it swelis purely
from the heart, is killed and chained
in its flow, how difficulty do we real
ize that those whom we loved are
indeed but as the dust-how chilling
the feelingt that the unutterable thoughts
of our bosoms must seek refuge again
in their silent sanctuary--that u al
fec;ions that rose pure as the exhala-
tons of the dew, like them before the
chill atmosphere OF death, must fall
back upon the heart in GOODNESS and
tears!
Such al least are the feelings with
which I have lately revisited the grave
of one, rendered equally dear by her
virtues and her snfferings. Its now
between two and three years since a
young EugIishman with his sister, a
beautiful and accomplished girl of six
teen, arrived in this country. Having
business to transact here, and thinking
that a change of climate and sea air
might be beneficial to her delicate
health, he had brought her with him,
and having placed her ina retired and
beautiful situation, he left her to attend
his business in another part of the
country. But | soon learned that this
interesting and beautiful female, was
the victim of that disease which in its
,lcsolating march sweep so many of
the young and beautiful to the grave.
Consumption had fastened upon her
delicate frame; and though for a time
i|tapDcared to have been checked, it
suddenly reappeared with all the
symptoms o frapid and speedy disso
luton. Her brother was immediate
Iy sent for, but the letters did not reach
him till it was too late. / then learn
ed that SIC had a lover whose anx
iety for her health had induced him
10 leave his country to follow her here,
and THAI he was actually on his pas

Her situation was now .Tuly dis
Pressing; her brother absent, her 10. |

GATHER AID MOTHER

There glows a love within my heart,
So fraught with holy feeling;
That hope. and light, and life must part,
Ere fades its sweet revealinss
There dwells a chord within my breast,
That death can only sever;
A pulse whose beating needs no rest,
But fondly thrills for ever.
There are two hearts that I can call
Ny ossa, in Joy and sorrow,
From whose pure blood affections, all
OF earthly hope | borrow.
Tint pulse, that chord. that brilliant ray
Of love, that nought can smother;
Breathe but for you-Ah! need | say!
