MOONLIGHT.

L
We are beneath the dark blue sky,
And the moon is shining bright;
Oh, what can lift the soul SO high
IS the glow of summer night!
When all the gay are hushd to sleep,
When they that mourn forget to weep,
Beneath that gentle light.
Is there no boiler, happier land,
Among those distant spheres,
Where we may meet that shadowy band,
!, The dead of other years?
Where all the day the moonbeams rest,
And where at length the souls are blest
Of those that dwell in tears.
Oh, if the happy ever leave
Their bowers of bliss on high,
TO cheer the hearts of those that grieve
And wipe the tear drop dry,
Il is when moonlight sheds its ray,
More pure and beautiful than day,
Aud earth is like the sky.
Constitutional Whig. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1824-1832, 1825-09-20

Now bear thee bravely gallan; sail,
And trim thy maiden canvass CHEEKY;
"A NATIONS blessing is thy gale,
TO wait the GUEST beloved so dearly;
Ride thou before it, safely, proudly,
Though Equinoctials below loudly;
His blood may coDsecrate thy name;
Then safely bear him, ship of FameI
Amidst The season when the storm
Its widest fury vents, unsparing,
Brave spirits guide thy untried form,
The boisierous danger nobIy daring.
If prayers are buoyant, spurn the seas,
For millions murmur in the breeze,
With heaven pleading, to sustain
Freedoms Apostle u 'er the main.
Should Europe's cloudy brow display
Some angry flashes from the ALLIANCE"
answering, steady be thy way,
While waves thy flag in cool defiance.
u from her moral desert springs
The siroc-h'salh Of angry kings,
The gales Of Freedom to the last,
Snail hush the pcstlential blast,
Then bear :hee bravely, gallant sail,
And spread thy virgin canvass gaily;
A grateful nation breathes thy gale,
Her benedictions rising daily.
And ~ hen the melting hero bends
With JOY Ger home aud kindred friends,
Retufn-well gladly hail thy name
Welcome, thou chosen ship Of fame!

lis morning on the sunny sod,
Where lingering footsteps late have trod;
It's morning on the melting snow,
That snfouds the grave of those below;
'TIe morning 10 each sprouting thing,
That greenly smiles because It's Spring;
lis morning on the marble stones!
That designate the owners bones,
IT'S morning TO the young and fair,
That walk, and laugh, and loiter there.
Above lei spring in rightness glow,
brighter morning smiles below.
There is a beam that breaks upon
The lone forsakcn buried one;
AM clearer than that dawning ray,
Which gives the first sweet light of day,
Sheds on the Christians soul light
To which the noon-day sun is night;
Aud shows the path his Saviour trod,
When using he returned TO God.

From The Ne.e York Statesman.

The following lines from the pensve music of our
former correspondent the Boston Bard copied from the
Winchester Herald breathe the strain of patient
resignation TO the ills of life which characterize the
greater portion of his poetry. We regret to learn,
from of his friends they prompted by his pre-
sent situation, and come freshly from feeling heart.
