From the American Traveller.

From the American Traveller.
The VOICE OF DEATH.
I've passd DER the mountains 1--we psssd Ger the sea-
And have found nothing yet that could conquer me
For the eye that beam'd brightly.
And the foot that s,epp'd lightly,
And the Aow're,s in bloom,
Have sill felt my doom.
And been hurried away to the depths of the tomb.
I pass'd DER the valies in evergreen dress'd.
Like the sweet Eden6elds of the land of the blessd
The roses were bloonng-the rilets were seen
To raise their soft eyes Ger the carpet ofgreen;
And the ivy and myrtle were trimming the grove,
Till it Iook'd to the eye like the Temple of Love:
My breath blew upon them-their loneliness fed,
And the scene ookd as drear the vault of the dead
I went to the brdsl-tbe groom and his bride
Were cycling each other with feelings of pride:
The vows had been said and the hymns had been sung,
And gladness and joy through the mansion had rung
stepp'd in among them the bride felt my hand,
And they buried her form in the depths Of the sand
Their smiles turn'd tears-ther rejocngs to pain
They chaunted song-'twas funeral strain.
Isaw the young infant sink calmly to rest.
Secure, and in health its mothers soft breast;
She watched every move of its innocent eye,
And felt her heart beat at its iremulous sigh:
II smipd-o! twas heaven. she thought, to behold
Each beauty and charm of its nature unfold!
touch'd tit wither'd-she bath'd 1t with tears:
o. twas harder than breaking the friendship of years!
Prepare for my coming-I ever am near,
At time when you think you have nothing to fear;
For pass Ger the mountains-I pass DER the sea,
And find nothing on earth that can conquer me.
And the eye that beams brightly.
And the foot that steps lightly.
And the fow'rets in bloom,
VIII all feel my doom,
And be hurried away to the depths of the tomb.

This Ihad, because Ikept thy preespis.
The arm Of power;
The pestilence; the cloud,
Where lightning fringes thunders shroudi
The famine hour;

With piumes abroad,
No more a terror than the wind.
They are the cherubim Of Con;
They strike that liz may save;
The creature falls-while the Creators kind.
That monument. man,
May lose the pillar Of his prime;
The lilly work and opening flowers.
Once beautiful as beauty's bowers,
May fall at the approach of time:
The world may whisper Of run'd plan'
Yet, if the lamp within
A glory outward yield,
The fabric crumbles not from siu'
That glory is its shield.

Aud. gathering up the iron hail,
Have fancicd shackles, when the sword
of mental courage, on hermirs tongue
Hath sbewn the cruciied-ofearth in song
