THE BRIDES FAREWELL.
fay MRS. HEMANS.

By MRS. HEMANS.
WHY do weep ito leave the vine,
Whose clusters Ger me bend
The myrtle-yet, oh ! call it mine
The flowers l lov'd to tend
"A thousand thoughts of all things dear,
Like shadows DER me sweep,
| leave my sunny childhood here,
oh therefore let me weep
leave thee, sister we have play'd
Through many joyous hour,
Where the sivery green of the olive shade
Hung dim Ger the fount and bower
Yes thou and ], by stream, by shore,
In song, in prayer, in sleep,
Have been as we may be no more
Kind sister let me weep
leave thee, father Ewes bright moon
Must now light other feet,
With the gather'd grapes and the Tyre IN tune,
Thy homeward steps to greet
Thou in whose voice, to bless thy child,
Lay tones of love SO deep,
Whose eye Ger all my youth hath sml'd-,
] leave thee let me weep!
Mother leave thee t-on thy breast
Pouring out JOY and wo,
have found that holy place Of rest
Still changeless-yet 1 go
Lips that have lulPd me with your strain,
Eyes that have watch'd my sleep!
Will earth give love like yours again
Sweet mother let me weep.

LOVE

Young ladies are too apt to imagine that they must
empliied in the Waverly and other fashionable no.
vels that they must first treat their admirers with
dsdain; then suffer themselves to be gradually ap-
preached like princesses of dazzling charms that
they must at time lend willing ear to the
of suitors and at another start at the slightest
expression of feeling, and banquet on the signs and
tears of Responding lovers. But true affection
should not be trammeed by artificial rules
"Ioye is q bird of summer skies;
From cold and Winter he soon departs;
He basks in the beam of good humored eyes,
And delights in the warmth of open hearts.
But where he has once found chill and rain,
He seldom returns to that bower again"

FROM THE BOSTON MONTHLY MAGAZINE.
THE CAPTIVE.

The starlight falls with dim cold light
On the rude grey rocks of the rampart's height,
And the spear of the sentinel CLEANS afar,
AS the light comes down from the lonely star
And his FURNISHED helm, and the tossing plume,
And the dark blue brand those beams Hume;
But the glitter that streams through captve's CRATE
On weared eye, falls desolate-
There is stirring no breath save of him whose tread
Seems guarding the rest of the silent dead
And the wing of the evening breeze scarce strs
Yon shadowy forest of ancient frs.
A pageant of earth in its pomp swept by
And the snow plumb helms Of that festal train
Were heaving like foam stormy main--
But the ringing of steel and the clalion's swell
Peal halshly within dark cold cell
The gold and the purple. the CHANGING gem
The graceful head, with its proud diadem--
The tramp of the steed, and Of steel-clad men,
Went minglng in niith down the oody glen.
And away where the founts and green forest boughs
Give Joy to the Wales, from the hoary hl's brows
All sadly the tones of their laughing mirth
Burst in on the desolate captive's hearth.
dream'd of the light of my glad skies,
And of sweetness that beams from soft blue eyes
Of the song and the laugh, where hearts beat free,
AS the saraband whirs round the wildwood tree !;
And of bright wings that glance through the blue
summer air,
Flinging light on the vintage that puppies there
OF the whisper of leaves in the dim olive woods
That solemnly wave in the dark soltudes.
When the crimson grew faint on the deep cold sea,
The pageant-the yision-had fed from me. In

A SKETCH OF CHARACTER.

w fair that form, if virtue dwelt within.-M1LTo
look upon thy face-but while
1t seems so bright and fair,
l ask me if that sunny smile
Is wont to lnger there
ask me if thy bosom's heave
Hides not heart that's doom'd to grieve,
And wither in despair
ask if peace or Joy can be,
With beings desoate like thee p
knew thee not, thou fallen flower,
While virtue mark'd thy growth;
knew thee not in thy bright hour,
Of purity and truth
knew thee not till treachery's ways
Had dmm'd the sunshine Of thy days,
The freshness of thy youth
And then met thee in thy shame
Without friend-without a name -
An outcast from thy happy hope,
A blighted, joyless thing:
Thy journey EDWARDS to the tomb,
A rayless wandering.
Uncheer'd by hope thy bosom heaves,
Yet like the roses scatter'd leaves,
Some sweets still round thee cling;
And dimly thro' thy ruins shine,
Like ivy on the scatter'd pine.
There's beauty still upon thy brow,
And kindness in thy heart
That smile is with thee even now,
All hopeless as thou art =
But sorrows wave too soon will chase
The light of beauty from thy face,
And thou wilt then depart
AS bends the lily to the blast,
Unlov'd -unknown-thou'lt sink at last.
God cheer thee on that fearful day,
For none will watch thy bed -
None sigh to see thee pass away,
Or weep for thee when dead
None seek the lonely silent spot,
Where all forsaken and forgot,
Reclines thy lovely head =
The turf, alas, will soon be green
And few will know what thou hast been.
The ladies' garland. [volume] (Harpers-Ferry, Va. [W. Va.]) 1824-1828, 1825-12-17
THE SMILE.

There is smile which often plays
With seeming gladness on the cheek;
A smile which speaks an outward ease,
Although the anguish'd bosom break.
And when we see it light the eye,
We think we see contehtment there
Yet scarce it hides the deep-hove sigh
Yet scarce contains the glistening tear.
So, when we view the glow-worm's rays,
The sparkling gem we meier suspect;
Nor think the shining insect preys
On the young leaf it seemed to deck.
