JECKOYVA.

JECkOYNA.
The Indian chief Jackoyva, as tradition says, per
shed alone on the mountain which now bears his
name. Night overlook him whilst hunting among
the cliffs, and he was not heard of till after long
time, when his half decayed corpse was found at
the foot of high rock, which he must have
fallen. Mount Jeckoyva is near the White Hills.
They made the warriors grave beside
The dashing of his native tide
And there was mourning in the glen
The strong wall of thousand men
Ger him thus fallen in his pride,
Ere mist of age-or blight or blast
Had DER his mighty spirit past.
They made the warriors grave beneath
The bending of the wild eIin's wreath,
When the dark hunters piercing eye
Had found that mountain rest on high,
Where, scattered by the sharp winds breath,
Beneath the rugged cliff were thrown
The strong belt and the mouldering bone.
Where the warriors foot, when first
The red sun on the mountain burst?-
Whcre-When the sultry noon-tide came
On the green wales with scorching fame,
And made the woodlands faint with thirst
Twas where the wind is keen and loud,
And the grey eagle breasts the 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
Down the bare rock SO high and white!--
But he that dropped not in the chase
Made on the hills his burial place
They found him there, when the long day
Of cold desertion passed away,
And traces on that barren cleft
OF struggling hard with death were left
Deep marks and foot prints in the clay!
And they have laid this feathery helm
BY the dark river and green elm. II. W. L.

THE TIE SEVERED.

THE TIE SEVERED.
When news came to the mother that her son
Was slain in battle, all at once it seem'd
AS if the chain that bound her to this earth
Was snapped, and like broken flower she pined,
When the rain rushes, and the winds are loud,
In quick decay. lie, Of four goodly sons,
(Two on the ocean for their country died)
Was the sole remnant; one by one they sunk,
Leaving him only, to his mothers heart,
hope-comfort.
Words may not express
The tenderness so fearful and so deep,
The love with which this widow 10, d her son,
Musng, awake, within her silent home,
Dreaming, asleep. on her nocturnal couch;
He was to her the world. Words cannot paint
The agony which like tempest fierce
Tortured her thoughts to chaos when he fell,
And sorrow, like dark midnight fell between
Sunshine and her lone heart
On afternoons,
Of Summer when from bean-felds bossonng,
Lazy and faint the amorous winds crept by
Laden with perfumes, twas pleasant sight
To look upon the matron, she turned
With patient toll her mountaineering wheel,
Beside her cottage door; while on the seat
Of daised turf the freakish kitten played
His antics, and o'erhung in wicker cage,
The captive black bird chanted his clear song
There was pleasure, and unbroken peace,
A calm and sweet refreshment in that sight
OF pious age, leaning in tranquil hope
OF frail tie as mid Sahara's sands,
Horizon bounded, one bright speck Of green
The traveller sees, and thereon thinks of rest,
OF perils past forgettul
Like tree,
Tempests o'erthroWn she wther'd rapidly;
The cottage soon tenantless; and then
The sun shOne on the hOllieS round her crave
Lines addressed to Wje during spell Of sickness.

said would love thee in want or in wealth,
Through clouds and through sunshine, in sick
ness in health,
And fear not, my love, when thy spirits are weak,
The troth have plighted never will break.
Aye, sickness; but sickness-t touches the heart
With feeling, where how many feelings have
part
There's magic in soothing the wearisome hour;
Pity rears up the stem, and Hope looks for the
flower.
The rose smells as sweeuy in sunshine and air,
But the greenhouse has all our affection and care;
The lark sings as noby, While soaring above
But the bird that nurse, is the bird that we love-
have lov'd thee in sickness, Iloy thee in health,
And if want be our portion, hy love be our wealth /;
Thy comfort in SORROW, thy stay when most weak ;
The troth have phghted, never will break.

MORNING.

MORNlNG.
There is parting in Nights murky veil,
SOFT pale light is in the eastern sky;
ltsteals along the ocean tremblingly,
Like distant music waited on the gale.
Stars, one by one, grow faint, and disappear,
Like waning tapers, when the feast is o'er
While, girt with rolling nsts, the mountains hoal
High DER the darkhng glens their tops uprear
There is gentle rustling in the grove,
Though winds be hush'd; it is the stir Of wings,
And now the sky-lark from her nest upsprings,
Trilling, in accents clear, her song of love,
And now heavens gate in golden splendour burns-
Joy to the earth, the glorious Sun returns
NIGHT
love thee when thou CONTEST, glorious Sun,
Out Of the chambers of thy watery dwelling;
love thee when thy early beam is telling
OF worlds awaken'd and mans toll begun
/ love thee, too, when DER the western hill
Thy parting ray in golden hue is stealing,
For then the gush of soft and pensive feeling
Speaks to the labouring bosom, peace, be still
But thou art not so lovely to nine eye
At morning, balu.y eve, or busy noon,
AS is thy gentle sister, the pale Moon,
Which shineth now in yon unclouded sky:
Then let me forth, to drink her mellow ray,
Who could exchange it for the gaudy day.
