Yet there was fash oi his early power
playing then upon his brow. ! remember
when the coffins were lowered down, and he
took last look at all-aH that he had lost;
he turned and pointed to the spot-"My
last staff" said he, sis broken, the social glass
has cursed me, am miserable man."
But the glass was again in his hand that
night. He few to it now as an antidote to
memory and conscience. All went. He no
longer raised hand to stay the wreck of his
estate, and his creditors like hungry wolves
fell upon it, it failed to satisfy them; he was
imprisoned, and when he came back to the
village, he had lost all but the image of
humanity. Such is the termination of ca
reer upon which thousands recklessly enter
needless Of danger-and careless of conse-
quences.
l would have this simple tale speak then,
as voice from the grave of early genius,
from the wreck of fortune, from the ruins OF
peace, and worth and virtue, would have
it address itself to all ages and ranks and
conditions. Its lesson is brief, is interesting,
is important.-Hear it reader! "Remember

Eve been roaming! Pve been roaming
Where the meadow dew is sweet,

With its pearls upon my feet.

With their blossoms in my hair.
T've been roaming! I've been roaming!

SERENADE.

SERENADE.
Lady, awake thee from thy dreaming,
Silence now reigns all profound:
Luna, too, is brightly beaming,
Throwing silver smiles around'
Do not fear
A listening ear,
IIush'd is every marring sound.
"suns ofthc sleepless" now are shining
On the soft and tranquil nights
peary rays are all entwining
In one mellow, lovely sight,
Fifty seem
The stars to glcam
On world ofpure delight.
Lady, awake then from thy slumbers,
Hours like these the soonest tiy;
These are moments Loves young numbers
Breathe their sweetest melody:
From the day
They fade away
oh! then wake thee ere they die.

HOPE.-By Henry Meale.

iOf E.-Dy i1t'Hy -'e"'e'
oh! why should we seek to anticipate sorrow
BY throwing the fow'r of the present away;
And gath'rng the dark rolling clouds of tomor-
row,
To darken the generous sun of to-day!
How often we brood over misery, madly,
Till we murder the hope that sent to inspire;
And pleasure grown old and decrcpt turns sadly
To shake his grey locks DER the tomb of his sire.
Cherish hope-and though life by affiiction be
shaded,
Still her ray shall shine lovely and gild the scene
o'er,
Like the dew-drop that glistens on leaves when
they're faded,
As bright and as clear as it gsten'd before.

THERE'S NOT ONE TRUE IN SEVEN

The following parody on one of Moore's per
haps best melodies, was whispered in the ear o.
a friend by gentleman entering the ballroom
These girls are all hceting show,
For mans illusion given;
Their smiles of joy, their tears of wo,
Deceitful shine, deceitfu flow;
There's not one true in sepen.
And false the fash of Beauty's eye,
AS fading hues of even:
And love and laughter-alla lie;
And hopes awakened but to die
There's not one true an Seuen.
Poor mushrooms of sunny day.
Yet bloom and be forgiven,
FOR lfe's at best a show.-Away,
pull drowsy Thought!-pll join the gay,
And romp with all the seven.
