TE1E REPOSITORY.
ELLEN ROSEWOOD.

AMONG all the sorrows of human life there is no.
thing SO desolate, SO whitening, and so overwhelm
ing, the grief arising from the view of native
scenes, after long though unforgetting absence.
Wandering on from flower to flower in quest of
happiness, observe the gradual change ofthlngs
with which we were connected, without any deep
feelings Of SORROWS we mark the progressive altera-
ton, and follow in its But the scenes of our
childhood remembered as they existed in de-
parted days time flies over our natal fields unno-
ted in our retrospective view; the vista of memory
is still green and owery-still the haunt of those
we loved in the sunny days of our expanding exist
ence The heart travels not with the silent lapse
of years folds the mantle of its infant loves
round it's budding joys and sits in memory's bowers
still listening to those voices which longer sound
and responding to that music whose softest echo
has long since ceased to vibrate Wherever we
roam, with whatever scenes we are delightedly
versant, though, unconsciousy to ourselves we
have almost totally changed from what we were,
yetw turn fondy to the abode of our early years,
and hasten from the cares the sorrows and, per-
haps, the honors of life, to the cradle of being,
and mingle with those playful forms we once so
deeply lOVed, WITHOUT PauSlS u estuialc lllo uS-
asters of forgotten time-wthout rejecting that,
like ourselves, many of our young companions have
been scattered over the world-many may have
gone long since to the untravelled realms of I'M
known eternity-and all may have lost the memory
of him who traces past delights so fondly.-When
we awake from this delusive reverie, and look a.
round on the place of our birth-on all its we'll
known scenes without behOldinr one familiar face
one human object who thinks or cares for US alas!
the sad reality is more than can bear. The tears
of agonizng conviction blot all the fairy pictures
Of fancy, and the consolng though treacherousjoys
of years are lost on the spot from whence they
sprung.
When, in the dawn of life, left my birthplace,
in pursuit of knowledge, bitter was the sorrow felt

SO often prepared for tenants younger and fairer
than himself; but life still fingered on, though he
was left alone among generation that knew him
not. saw in moment that even this sole surviv-
ing object of early knowledge did recognize the
playful boy in the melancholy man !; and was not
socitous to my acquaintance with him, how
worthy he might be, who had piled the cold
clods upon the graves Of all loved. Resuming,
therefore, much of indifference as could mask
my face withal, requested to know the time cause,
and manner, of Ellen Rosewood's death. Like
solitary hermit from his CELL tear stole forth from
the old mans eye. sAh! Sir said he, it was
sad sight to see her dropping and dying away-so
sweet and innocent she was but it's what we all
must come to, though to be sure, 'twoud be more
reasonable it should come to me than to one like
her.'-'What was the cause of her deathp sAh,
Sir, twas love-love and sorrow, which mean the
same thing, as far as Eve seen yet Yes, Sir, there
be who will laugh at love and call it folly, but
it kills than fire and sword. IT'S long story
this-but thus it is in short There was fine gal
liant named Walter Barry, who became close joined
to Miss Ellen in all her studies and rambes for a
long time, and they always together in all
Places ana their eyes COulQ tell tale across Woe
room. They were in love, as every body knew,
and none in this treacherous world could love
But there one who had always loved Miss Ellen
most desperately from boy, and he could not brook
this Barry's success-though Walter had become
from wild and thoughtless, very worthy young
gentleman. But this made it so much the worse
he hated him the more for his reformation. So he
swcre revenge and one night, when Barry was re-
turning home, he met and stabbed and killed him.
But what was passing strange he went directly to
magistrate and told what he had done. There
but one way, then, to follow. The poor mad youth
said he wished to die, since Ellen would not love
him-and-and yonder he lies, with nothing but his
crime to mark his grave After this, poor Ellen
dropped and pined away, month after month, as
shone upon; and-there she lies! But those are
happiest who die soonest, and wish it had pleased
| Heaven to spare the burying SO sweet virgin
as Ellen Rosewood So saying, the old man went
onward to another part of the cemetery and began
to excavate new grave; while bowed over the
tomb of her who had been the brightest light ofmy
infant years-the loveliest object of my lfe-and
wept think that the purest feelings of the heart
should generate the bitterest suferings, and the
faires portion Of creation be the innocent cause of
the most revolving and dreadful crimes.

this illuding suggestion, tore myself away; but
long was the time ere was destined to return land
sad the events which hung over that first, last part
ing Of my childhood. Yet the time did come when
determined once more to tread the scenes which
were SO dear to me. AS approached the village,
looked around for old familiar objects, but all was
strange, unknown, and unwelcome. Still went on
sadly and silently, gazing around on every thing
and beholding nothing that loved, save the river,
along whose banks had run and sported and an
gled, and the eternal mountains over which had
climbed in days that now were memory's. My path
lay by the grave yard, and, impeed by the sadness
of my feelings, opened the little gate (and even
that was strange, for remembered the old one,)
and in silence entered On every side vast num-
Der of tombs and graves, unknown to me, present
ed themselves to my view. I paused in speech

have my pleasures been increased? sat down on

the dead among the graves of those whose shouts
of welcome | fancied would hail my arrival, and
whose smiles of joy would fall like sunshine on my
weared heart. Now what is left for me, said and
sighed, but to read their epitaphs and pass unseen
away rose and passed from one tombstone to
another every name read was as familiar to my
ear as my own, and memory wrote upon my heart
the history of their innocent existence. But there
was one, upon whose grave no green sward yet had
grown one whose small white monument was yet
unfxed in the enclosing SOIL Upon that little
tombstone saw the name of Ellen Rosewood the
lovelest fairy of our fairy scenes her mothers
idol and my boyhood's love; the pride of her ma
