ton and terror. Even yet, though the storm
for the present has gone by, | tremble with
the dread OF its return. Pardon the incohes
rent illusions of a perturbed spirit. 1t was no
alarm at the meditated removal OF the Old Col
lege from its ancient site, where it has long
enjoyed profound repose and where the favor
lite bird of Minerva may hope ere long to take
up her permanent abode, undisturbed by the
noise OF Freshman or Sophomore. IL was no
concern for the alleged regeneration OF one

THE GRIEF OF JUDAH.
By the Reu. VIM. Muller.
Hush'd is the voice of Judah's mirth-
And Judah's minstrels, too, are gone;
The harps that told Messiah's birth
Are hung on Heavens eternal throne.
Fled is the bright and shining throng
That swell'd on earth the welcome strain
And lost in air the choral song
That hoated wild on Davids plain
For dark and sad is Bethlehem's fate,
Her valleys gush with human blood;
Despair sits mourning at her gate,
And murder stalks in frantic mood.
At morn the mothers heart was light,
Her infant bloom'd upon her breast,
At eve twas pale and wither'd quite,
And gone to its eternal rest.
Weep on, We childless mothers, weep
Your babes are hushcd in one cold grave;
In Jordan's streams their spirits sleep,
Their blood is mingled with the waves.

| recovered; but when confidently ask
ed the return Of my fortune, to the com
pletion Of my sorrow, they refused. Can
you believe it? they refused and | am
now living poor man, dependent on the
generosity Of those | enriched"
BY the time my unfortunate friend had
finished his story, we had arrived at the
street where we were to part. | shook
his hand, and could not but attempt to
comfort him. | suggested, thai although
there was indeed no pleasure without its
pain, yet, OH the other hand, there was
no pain without a pleasure. Concern
ing his unfortunate visit to the theatre,
| told him he ought to try and forget the
imperfections Of the place; attend rather
10 the beauty and talent Of the perform
ers, than to the fiction Of the play that is
performed; and | urged to him, that if
he would observe with candour, the great
powers Of Cooper, Or watch the beauti-
full eye, and intelligent countenance Of
Miss Johnson, as she was delighting eve
ry one else with the chaste elegance of
her acting, he could not but have forgot
ten, at least for a time, bis miserable fate,
and be would have passed his evening
like happy man.
Forget" said he, " forget-how can
| but see, that man is fool who Will
weep at the misfortuues that he knows
are but feigned, or laugh at the ludicrous
situations that are but planned for his
pleasure? AS for Cooper, l am asham-
ed that he could bring a tear into my eye;
aud Miss Johnson, to say the candid
truth, Miss Johnson did please me. I
was delighted, and the only fault l found
with her was that ! could not see her
more often" AS he spoke, light breeze
came sweeping down the street; blew
the dust into his eyes, as he faced the
point whence it Came-took away his
straw hat, and deposited it in the gutter.
When he regained it he placed it upon his
head, and a passenger smiled at his lu-
dicrous appearance, he cast an angry look
at NE, and eXclaimed-" There, that's
always the way with me-" He moved off
with most tremendous frown upon his
brow, and | have no doubt he mourned
over the little accident all the night
This is an unhappy man there are men
who pride themselves on being miserable.

Why doubt that III love thee in sickness or health
Or that love will escape in the absence of wealth
Doubt not, it will glow when thy spirits are weak,
With warmth which no changes Or erils can break.
Then confde, dearest M*'*, in this fond, throbbing
breast,
And let confidence mutual its faithfulness test,
The love which bear thee no damps can depress,
And tho ills cluster round thee I'll love thee no less
Thy solace I'll be in aflction's dark hour,
And my sorrows willyieldto thy soul-soothng powrs

THE WIFE.

MASON has, in his English Garden, beautiful
tribute to his departed companion-on whose tomb
he inscribed that most beautiful Of epitaphs, part Of
which l must copy Cost Sbec'T
"Speak, dear Maria breathe strain divine
Even from the grave thou shalt have power 70
charm
Bid them be chaste, be innocent, like thee;
Bid them in duty's sphere as merely move,
And if as fair from vanity as free;
As firm in friendship, and as fond in love
Tell them, though tits awful thing to die,
cIwas ev'n TO thee,) yet the dread path tyod,
Heaven lifts its everlasting portals high
And bids the pure in heart behold their Cod
The affection and sorrow which dictated such IA
epitaph, were not transient feigned. The intro
ducton of his latest work seems alike the language
of the heart
Deem not ye that resume the strain
To court the worlds applause; my years mature
Have Iearnd to slight the toy. No, its to sooh
That agony Of heart, which they alone,
Who best have lovd, who best have been beloy'd.
Can feel or pity sympathy severe
Which she too felt when on her pall;d lip
The last farewell hung trembling, and bespoke
wish to lnger here, and bless the arms
She left for heaven She died. and heav'n is hers
Be mine, the pcnsive solitary balm
The recollection yields. Yes, angel pure
While memory holds her seat thy image still
Shall reign, shall triumph there
