THE HAPPINESS OF HEAVEN.

DR.. Dwight closes his sermon on the Happ-
ness OF Heaven, with the following apt and beau
tiful comparison =
TO the eye of man the sun appears pure
hght-a mass Of unmingled glory. Were we to
ascend a continual flight towards the luminary,
and could we, like the eagle, gaze upon its lus-
tire, we should in our progress behold its splen-
dor become every moment more intense. AS we
rose through the heavens, we should see little
orb changing gradually into a great world and
as we advanced nearer and nearer, should be-
hold it expanding every way, until all that was
before Us became an universe Of excessive and
unreasonable glory. Thus the heavenly inha-
bltant will, at the commencement of his happy
existence, see the divine system filled with mag
nificence and splendor, and arrayea in glory
and beauty; as he advances through the sue
cessive periods of duration, will behold all things
more and more luminous, transporting and sun
like, foreyer!"

FROM THE EMPORIUM,

Should man be proud 2-go ask the great,
The great in wealth, or power, or name
You will not find with all their state,
The true in heart, the pure in fame
The world with its infectious breath,
Hath scattered wide the faint of sin
Like marble DER the place of death,
Though fair without, ALPS vile within.
Should man be proud 2-ask povegy-
Degraded oft below the brute,
Will not its burning tears reply,
In language eloquent, though mute,
It's ceaseless tale of bitter wrong,
Its deep abasement-e'en in dust,
Will answer loud and answer long,
And answer true--as true it must.
McuM man be proud ego ask the grave,
The cold, the lone down trodden tomb,
Where sleep the monarch and the slave,
In kindred dust and kindred gloom
Go to the place where thousands sleep,
In still obllvion's midnight shroud,
And DER the wreck of being weep,
And ask. ask there--should mar be proud

THE INDIAN GIRLS LAMENT.
An Indian girl was sitting where
Her lover, slain in battle, slept;
Her maiden veil, her own black hair,
Came down DER eyes that wept
And wildly, in her woodland tongue,
This sad and simple lay she sung
Fve pulled away the shrubs that grew
Too close above thy sleeping head,
And broke the forest boughs that threw
Their shadows Ger thy bed,
That shining from the sweet southwest
The sun-beams might re oice thy rest.
1t was weary, weary road,
That led thee to the pleasant coast,
Where thou, in his serene abode,
Hast met thy fathers ghost;
Where everlasting autumn lies
On yellow woods and sunny skies.
Twas the broider'd mock made,
That shod thee for that distant land,
Twas thy bow and arrows laid
Beside thy still cold hand,
Thy bow in many a battle bent,
Thy arrows never vainly sent.
With wampum belts crossed thy breast,
And wrapped thee in the bison's hide,
And laid the food that pleased thee best,
In plenty, by thy side,
And decked thee bravely, as became
A warrior Of illustrious name.
Thou'rt happy now, for thou art past
The long dark journey of the grave.

THE STOLEN KISS.

Smooth'd be that brow-and chas'd the frown
Yet gathering to thy tardy will
Nor think to awe my raptures down,
For anger makes theelovelier still.
In vain thou wouldst compel the ire
But lightly felt, but family shown;
Thine eyes betray beneath their fire
The pardon thou wouldst blush to own.
Then, still that proudly swelling breast,
Soften that lovely, mantling check;
TWAS but kiss, that well expressed
The tenderness could not speak

Gaz'd your mantle's fold,

Like yon white snow-clad hill
Meath the blue air,
Just as the golden sun
Rests on it there,
Quivring with solar ray
Such thy bright breasts quick play,
Seen at that close of day,
Buero fair.
Where's all that brightness gone
See the hill bare.
SO fades the breast forlorn,
Once though SO fairs
Quick as that sunset glow,
Soon as that hill side snow,
SO youth and beauty go,

The flowers of life, they flourish,
When morning suns they courts
When western breezes fan the air,
And hope is their supports
But alb they droop their tender heads,
When eve her dusky shadows spreads.

When youth its warmth imparts;
And when congenial spirits meet,
They Irvine around their hearts;
But alb how swift is their decay,
The fairest fade the first away. A. p. L.

And in the land of light, at last,
Hast joined the good and brave
Amid the flushed and balmy air,
The bravest and the loveliest there.
Yet, to thy own dear Indian maid
Thythoughts will sometimes earthward stray,
To her who sits where thou vert laid,
And weeps the hours away
Yet almost can hei grief forget
To think that thou dost love her yet.
And thou, by one of those still lakes
That in shining cluster lie,
On which the south wind scarcely breaks
The image Of the sky,
bower for thee and me hast made
Beneath the many coloured shade
And thou dost wait and watch to meet
My spirit sent to join the blest,
And, wondering what detalns my feet
From the bright land of rest,
Dost seem, IN every sound, to hear
The rusthng of my footsteps near.
Know We the land, where no pain and no sorrow
Shall darken the brow, bow down the head,
Where grief Of to-day, and thought of to-
morrow,
Shall reach the glad heart, ndappa it with dread
Know We the land of the spirit of peace,
Where the joys never lessen, the hymns never
Where the friends of our bosom, here lost in the
tomb,
Shall meet us again ever freed from its gloom
Where the hearts, now divided, united shall rest,
And be healed of their woes in the bowers of the
blest
Where the tear shall not quench the bright beam
of the eye,
Where hopes here destroyed, meet fruton on high,
And spirits with spirits in love only vie;
Where the shall arise on the night ofthe grave,
And the arms that chastised be expanded to save :
IT'S the home of the just-'tis the region Of truth,
Where the children shall dwell ever blooming in
youth,
Oh dearer than aught to the sorrow-worn soul,
Are the dreams of that land and the hopes of that
goal.
