Provident. Both of them made a declaration to that
effect; but whether the pirate was informed thereof
or whether there too much delay in apprehend-
ing him, he took to fight, leaving his ship behind IN
the port. The pirate is an JEnglishman, named
Smith, and deep regret is felt that prompt measures
not taken to seize this wretch who is probably
gone to resume his infamous course OF life.

There is delicate and beautiful fancy in the follow

lade than the last verse, representing Time as fly
ng before Love, and Memory only staying to chide
his flight
BRIDAL SERENADE.
Wilt thou not waken, bride of May,
While flowers are fresh, and the sweet bells chime
Listen, and learn from my roundelay,
How all life's pilot-boats sailed one day
match with Time.
Love sat on a lotus leaf ailoat
And saw old Time in his loaded boat;
Slowly he crossed lfes narrow tide,
While Love sat c!apping his wings, and crcd,
"Who will pass Time"
Patience came first, but soon was gone.
With helm and sail, to help Time on:
Care and Grief could not lend an our,
And Prudence said, while she stayed on shore,
II wait for Time!"
Hope filed with flowers her cori-tre bark,
And lighted its helm with glow worm spark;
Then Love, when he saw her bark fly fast,
Said, Lingering time will soon be past:
Hope oufspeeds Time."
Wit went next, old Time to past,
With his diamond oar and his boat OF glass,
A tcathery dart from his store he drew,
and shouted, while far and swift it ffcw.
80, Mirth kills Tine!"
But Time sent the feathery arrows hack
Hopes bark OF amaranths lost lis track;
Then Love babe his butterfly pilots move,
And laughing said, "1hey shall see how Love
Can conquer Time
Ills gossaner sails he spread with speed,
But Time has wings, when Time has need;
Swiftly he crossed ffcs sparkling tide,
And only Memory stayedto chidc
