ne death of several of his fricnds]
THE GLOOM OF AUTUMN.
AN EMBLEM OF OLD AGE.
Hail, ye signing sons of sorrow!
View with me III autumnal gloom!
Learn from thence your fate tomorrow,
Dead perhaps-laid in tho tomb.
SEQ all nature fading-dying,
Silent all things seem to mourn;
Lille from vegetation flying,
Brings to mind our mould ring urn.
Oft the autumn's tempest rising,
Makes the lofty forest nod
Scenes of nature, how surprising,
Read in nature, natures God.
See our sovereign sole creator,
Lives, eternal, in the sky
While VIC, mortals, yield to nature,
Bloom awhile, then fade and die.
Nations die by dread Bellona,
Tho enrag'd tyrannic kings,
Just as plants by pale Pomona,
Fall to rise in future springs.
Mournful scene, when vegetation,
Dies by frost, or worms devour;
Doubly mournful, when nation
Dies by neighb'ring nations power.
Death and war my mind deprosses,
Autumn shews me my decay,
Calls to mind my past dstresses
Warns me of my dying day
Autumn gives me melancholy,
Strikes detection through my soul;
While mourn my former folly,
Waves of sorrow DER me roll.
Lo ] hear the air resounding,
With expiring insects cries;
All! their means to me how wounding
Emblem ofmy aged signs.
Hollow winds about are roaring,
Noisy waters round me rise:
Whilo sit my fate dcPio1i ngJ
Tears fast streaming from my eyes.
What to me are autumn's treasures
Since know no earthly Joy,
Long I've lost all youthful pleasures,
Time must youth and health destroy.
Pleasures once fondly courted,
Shar'd each bliss that youth bestows;
All, to see where then sported,
Now embitters all my woes.
Age and sorrow since have blasted
Every youthful pleasing dream;
Quivering age, with youth contrasted,
Oh, how short our glories seem!
As the annual frosts are cropping
Leaves and tendrils from the trees;
So my friends are yearly dropping,
Through cd age or dire disease.
Former friends, o how I've sought en-,
Just to cheer my dropping mind;
But they're gone, like leaves in autumn
Driv'n before the dreary wind.
When few more years are wasted,
When few more springs are Ger;
When few more griefs I've tasted,
shall fall, to bloom no more.
Fast my sun of life declining,
Soon will set in endless night;
But my hopes, pure and refining,
Rest in future life and light.
Cease this fearing -trembling-sighing,
Death shall break this sullen gloom,
Soon my spirit, futtering-Hying,
Must be borne beyond the tomb.

A CURIOUS EXHIBITION is now attract
ing the public at Agen in France Two
Italians have number of pigeons, which
are placed in cages, and from ten to twelve
of the same color are placed together.
BY dint of great patience and perseverance
they have been taught several feats of the
most varied nature, and quite opposed to
their usual habits. As soon as the cages
are opened, the pigeons ascend, mix to-
gether and fly away; but, OH signal,
those Of the same color separate from the
rest and fly away together, each flight
entering the appropriate cage. Carpets
OF different colors are placed upon the
ground, and nets being spread, each flight.
on given signal, goes to the carpet, or to
the next pointed out for it. A flight OF
pigeons is next let loose, and "a sportsman
having fred over them, they instantly fly
to him and enter his game bag. This bird,
which never before has been seen to mix IN
martial exercises, upon this occasion places
itself before the gun which is about 10 he

In its beak, and perches itself upon can

LONGEVITY AND COFFEE. The French
papers contain an account of woman now
living at Marseilles, who is lis years q
age, having been born in the year 17l4.
She has been married twice; the second
time, at the age Of sixty-six years, to a
young man of twenty-five. Between her
first and second marriage she wore mans
clothes, and served as courier to a prince
at Milan, no doubt being entertained re-
speeding her sex. This extraordinary
woman is said to be still in the enjoyment
of all her faculties, with perfect health,
and fine flow of spirits. She partakes
freely Of the ordinary diet, and drinks a
great deal Of coffee-upwards Of thirty
mall cups daily,
