A FRAGMENT.

/ With what feverish mind do behold
these scenes, that witnessed oft as pure a love
Is ever dwelt within mortal breast;
When she, the dear companion of my walks,
At whose appearance nature seemed to breathe
New fragrance round, and wear her sweetest
smiles,
Would point each beauty to my raptur'd vicw
Mould bid me mark how white the hawthorn's
flowers;
What verdure deck'd the lawn beneath our feet,
How gay the popars, and amidst their green,
How pensve did The cedar's hues appear!
with what majesty the setting sun
Casts his mild radiance on the winding stream,
Whose scarcely ruffied breast inverted show'd
Thc various trees that on its border grew,
And each light cloud that high in ether sailed.
How sweet the robin thrill'd his armorous lay;
How oft the wood dove cooed unto her mate.
And then, when she had caught my wandering
eyes,
Curned from the charms which nature spread
around,
70 gaze ON those thousand times more dear.
low has she hid her face upon my breast,
md said she meier should make me natures lover!
Ah! who could see her and nos nature love!
oh! she could bend me to her every will,
Ny SOULS emotions all were in her pow'r;
Andyet so gently did she bear her sway,
he never form'd wish that was not mine
l have known many whom the thOugntess
world
You'd call more fair, more beautiful than she;
ut never have my eyes beheld the face
hch more expressed that evenness of soul,
hat meek sweet temper which is ever pleased
henit can give delight; that mind, inform'd

to marrv-and such man as Mr. ---,
as generous as lie is rich. All my dear
young friends, my warmest wish is, that you
NAV all meet with such another; but in
deed, indeed, with such home and such pa
rents as you are blest with, don't wonder
you are in no haste to marry, however, we
shall see one of these days, we shall have

neously from the lips of the delighted young
ladies in question who considered that to
have been the subject of a wedding report,
was something step, at least, towards
the attainment of bridal honors.
! Mamma said the bride -elect, with a
languid air, you forget our friends have had
long walk
.Ah, my poor head replied her mother,
seeing after your trnmpery will really turn
it Sophia, love, these are such particular
friends they really must taste the cake even
before the wedding
Those of the particular friends whom
envy had deprived of appetite, gratefully
accepted the profiercd refreshment but
the two eldest, and if the truth must be
told, hopeless spinsters, declared bride-cakt
to be their particular aversion.
At length, when there remained no art
Gle of hnerv unshown, no prospect OF future
grandeur unrevealed, no spiteful feeling
unfelt, and no affectionate word unsaid
the spinster party retired; the yonnge
branches, to sigh for the vulgar privilege
of eating bride-cake and ordering their owl
dinners the elder, to manufacture humbl
limitations of the bridal hnery--to lament ii
every company that their poor dear frient
should be so sacri6ced-and to suppress al
outward signs of extreme willingness to be S
sacrificed themselves
Released from the presence of their visit
ors, the bridal party resumed the origlna
subject Of discussion--'the scene OF the wed

BY reasons preceps, candid ard sincere;
That breast, by every gentle passion swayed,
The throne of virtue, innocence, and truth;
And all those mental charms by which the sex
Can make this world paradise to man,
oft have look'd upon her angel eyes,
To see sweet fancy sporting in their beams,
Have look d. untilunutterable love
Has swell'd the tear Of transport in my own.
/ could nothelp it---l meier think on her
But what my eyes are truants to my will,
And play the infant
Here we strayed.
How strongly memory paints upon my heart
That dear, dear glance, which first betrayed her
love!
How widely different was her love from mine!
For though with such warmth her bosom glow'd
That she has often told me she could die,
If that would but insure my happiness;
Yet was il mild as IS the solar ray
In that soft season, when the plastic hand
OF nature moulds, for Amalthea's horn,
Her embryo fruits, and scatters wild her iiow'rs
Mine was the ardour of the midday blaze,
When on the torrid regions Phnbus pours
His veryid beams, and nature beams around
Here. I have plucked the wild flowr's for hei
breast,
And thought the simple blossom Of the thorn,
Placed there more lovely ihan the gardcnrose,
And swectcr than the violet of the vale
Yet-why know not--I would sometimes feel
As if those howrs should not be suffered there
They might from her loved bosom steal its SHOWS
Or rob her balny breath ofhalf its sweets;
And have taken them unknown to her,
And torn their leaves and strcw'd them in on
I walks.
And once-such fancies fill lovers brain!
Alas! that e'cr the warning should be true

'Beware, rash youth! those gusts ofpasson rule
Torn from her breast, my fate may yet be thine'

work their way through the door Of the
room in which they were. The master OBJ
serving their fruitless efforts, opened the
door for them. At second and third door
which they likewise found shut, they repeat
ed their efforts, and on being set completely
at liberty, they ran through the street and
out of the gate of the town. The merchant,
whose curiosity was excited by this strange
conduct Of the cats, followed them into the
fields, where he again saw them scratching
and burrowing in the earth. Soon after
there was violent shock of an earthquake;
and many of the houses in the city fell down,
of which number the merchants was one, so
that he was indebted for his life to the singu-
lar forebodings of the cats.
The following relation of one of the nu-
merous tragedies originating in the animosi.,
ty of the factions of the Guelf and Ghibclin,
" hch took place at Bolongna, in the year
1879, will be read with interest: The no
ble families of Giercmei and Lambertazzi
of Bologna, Chief of the Guelf and Ghibelin
factions in their city, had long been OPP
posed in deadly animosity, when Bonifaxzio
Gieremei and Imilda, the daughter Of Or
lando de Lambertazz, forget the enmity Of
their houses in the indulgence of mutual
and ardent passion. In one OF their secret
interviews in the palace Of Lambertazzi, the
lovers wsre betrayed to the brothers of Imil-
4 da she ned at their approach, but they rush
ed upon Bonifazzo. Immediately despatched
him with their poisoned daggers, and drag
ged his body to deserted Court. The un-
happy girl returning to the chamber discov-
cred his cruel fate by the stains of blood, and
traced the corpse to the spot where it had
been thrown. 1t was yet warm, and with
mingled agony and hope, she endeavored to
suck the venom from its wounds. But she
only nbibed the poison into her own veins;
and the Inflated pair were found stretched
litcless together. This sad catastrophe in
famed the hatred of the two hcases to des-
peration; their respective factions in;the ci-
ty espoused their quarrel; they flew to arms
- and forty DAYS the streets and palaces o.
Bologna were the scenes of general-and fu-
rious contest which terminated in favour o
the Guelfs The Lambcrtazzi and all theil
Ghibeln associates were driven from the ci
ty; their houses were razed, and twelve
thousand citizens were involved in a cem
mon sentence of Punishment.

COLLECTANE.A.

A correspondent of the New Orleans Ga
zette, gives us the following picture of the
Governor of Maracaibo.
"Upon our arrival we were compelled to
make our appearance before the Governor,
whom we found swinging himself in Il ham
mock, smoking cigar. The appearance
of the interior of the house when contrasted
with the residence of governors of other
places, would rather. from the supercilous,
force smie; an old table, few chairs,
and hammock, constituted tine whole in
ventory of its furniture. His excellency
was taking his ease in his hammock, sur
rounded by some half dozen children perfect
ly naked, as many geese, chickens, pigs,
goats, dogs and cats |; the whole forming a
most admirable tout ensemble. We were
informed that as there were no taverns in
the place, we could obtain lodgings that
night at the house of the guard major, who
is the chief also of the custom house. fol-
lowed his direction and had but little rea-
son to complain of the want of hospitality.
Having passed the night tormcntcd with
musuuistos, mice and other vermin. we
took leave of our host after the customary
presents, and hastened on board our YES
| sel.''
The following is his description of the
| town.
! aMaracaibo is situated in lat. 10 deg. IS
min. north, long. II deg. II min. west. 1t is
about one fourth of a mile long, and nsome
places of the same breadth. Ihe streets
are irregular and without pavements, and
the houses are built on the same scale, one
story high, with pointed root and white
washed. There is not a single glass window
in the place, which gives the houses more
the appearance of prisons than any thing
else. Their interior is in perfect accordance
with their exterior.
| upon e~.ering them, you are introduce
ed into large room, more resembling a
stable than any thing else; the floor is gen
orally Of earth, but i'll some instances bricks
are substituted; they have no ceiling, and
the roof is peopled with fourshing colony
of spiders. scorpions and neuts, who live IN
undisturbed harmony together. The furni-
ture is the same generally as we have de-
scribed in the governors mansion at the
fort. Nothing but the most imperious ne
cessity will induce these people to labour ;
the greatest part of their life is spent in the
most listless Incidence, swinging in their
hammocks."
Caes.-The following extraordinary an
ecdote of the sensibility of cats to approach
ing danger, from earthquakes is well au-
thenticated In the 1898, two cats, belong
/ ing to a merchant of Messina, in Sicily, an
nounced to him the approach OF an earth
quake. Before the first shock was felt, these
