Beheid him steering to his native shore.


Twas calm summer cvening-One white sail
Moved on the silent waters; motonless,
Scarce stealing to the shore She watched that sail
And followed il with enquring eye,
In eveCy>tack it took to catch the wind,
Fanc1ing she saw the signal
Nearer It came, but slowly; till at length
Its form was marked distinctly, and she caught
Eagerly, as it waved upon ward
Near the mant0pmast, what her wearied eve
Had sought SO long, and found not. 1t was there
The signal, one white pennon, with heart
Stamped in It's centre and at once he: i"v
Was speeches. and oerhoWing Fixed, She LOOKED
With trembling earnesncss, and down her cheeks
The tears ran fast, and her scarce moving lips
Had words without voice.
But one dark cloud which rose from out the poin,
Where the storm gathers after sultry days
And launches forth its lightning This heaved up
Its duskS pillows, and their lips tinged
With bright flame, while all below was dark,
Feartuy, and II sweed before the wind,
Like the strong canvass OF gallant ship
Standing before the tempest.
Now the sea
barkencd beneath its shadow, and it curled
Without breath, as if ii shook in fear
Before the coming tempest. She looked wild
First, on the cloud, then on the ship, which now
Steer'd 70 cone behind sandy point
On which the Lighthouse stood, but vet the winds
Were light and battling, and against her course;
And so the sails tapped loosely, and they rocked
Motohless on the crlsplng waves, and lay
Waiting, victim for the threatening storm,
Then as she looked, with an Intenser gaze
She saw the sweeps put out, and every arm
Strained to the effort, but their strength avaled not
TO send them to a haven. Then her heart
Sank, and her hopes darkened, till her form
Shook with her fears.

The miser delights in his gold,

The miser delights in his gold,
And he tolls after heap upon heap,
Till the change of his countenance comes-and be
hold
He hath sown what another shall reap
Yea, the king hath no boon from his birth,
To ensure less perishng span;
For the prince in his pomp is but dust of the earth
And his days the days of a man.
So we treasure our tolls till they glad
The dull sluggard that come in our room:
And we reign till the rulers of empire are laid
Where the sceptre that levels distinction is swaycd,
And their dcstinles sound like voice from the dead
That we are all on the march to the tomb
The lover goes out to the grove,
Where beauty's idolaters stray,
And be basks in the sunny illusions of love,
Till his merry heart dances its day.
The hero seeks honor in power,
And eAults in the battlefield train,
But he thinks not Of fate who is wringiAg the hour
When the slayer shall rest with the slain
And we love till The spoler lays waste
Our idols Of beauty and bloom,
And we fight till the day Of our triumph is past
When the strong ard the weak in one balance art
cast,
And the heavy toned lesson assures US at last.
That we are s on the march to the tomb

Or what We dream Of Eden; and all hearts

Came loaded with It's perfume. Once she loved

And sang them to their slunbere, and at dawn
Weakened them with her clear and lively note.
