THE FRUlTLESS WISH.
have wish and near my heart
That wish lies buried."-[H. X. WHITE ]
a.fruittess ~ish lies near my heart,
And daily stronger grows,
Oh! that it would from me depart,
Nor longer with malicious art,
Strive to Increase my woes;
For it can never be-
bly, too fond heart, thou must despair
"The dream is fair TO see,"
But o my heart, do thou prepare,
To loss thine A :, so lovely fair,
To know the sad reality,
That it can never be.
Mine eyes, seek we some other face,
Where there is more security:
But seek ye as we may, such grace
And beauty ye shall never trace,
Nor half such purity:
But il can neve, be.
My thoughts, strive ye to dwell,
I'm whom ye'd worthy be;
But Oh do thou dear MEMORY tell,
Fun oh hencefo-th what potent spell,
Bound me from infancy;
But il can never be.
Mino eyes,
Let vc tear in secret fall,
Tho it were veal: in ye;
And though we are bereft of all
That's dear,-break not the thrsil
OF faithful memory,
Though it can never be.

NAPOLEON.

Napoleon, when in st. Helena, behold
Dust OF his son, and wept."
Long on the Parian bust he eazed,
And his pallid lips moved not;
But when his deep cold eye he raised,
His glory was forgot;
And the heated tears came down like rain
AS the buried years swept back again
lie wept aloud!
He who had fearless rode the storm
Ofhuman agony,
And with ambition wild and warm,
sailed on bloody sea,
lie bent before the infant head
anu wef-asa mother weeps her dead -
Inc pale and proud.
The roar OF thevorld had passed.
On sounding l,ck alone,
An exile to the earth he cos,
His gathered glories GOWN,
Yet dreamt he of his victo, ram
Till, turning to that marble fa,..
His heart gave way;
And nature saw her timo Of power
conqueror in tears
The mighty bowed before flower,
In the chastIsement of years!
VIVA; can this mystery control!
The father comes as mans high soul
And hopes decay.
Alone before that chisseled brow,
His proudest victories
Fit by, like hated phantoms now,
And holier visions rise
Tho empire of the heart unveils,
Lo that crownless creative walls
His days Of power.
The golden days whose suns went down,
AS at the icy pole,
Lighting with dim but cold rcnown
The kingdom of the soul
When all life's charities were dead,
And each affection faild OF fled
That whitening hour:
sOh! had the monagch to the wind
His hope of conquest flung,
And to the victory of the mind
His warrior footsteps rung,
What then were desert rocks and soas
To one whom destiny DEGREES
Such faGeloss fame!
Oh had the tyrant cast his clown
And jewels all away
And tho the pomp of life had flown,
And left a lowering day
Then had thy speaking bust brave boy
iAwoke with memories Of joy
Thy fated name!

Couventon. Senate continued the consider
alton of this question yesterday, Mr. lSlaugeter
gung for white population, and tho extension of suf
ffagc, and Mr.. Dromgoole against both.
We are happy to say that the Senate by a vote of
ID to 10, acknowledged the justice of extending to
the non rceholders the right of suffrage for members
Of Convention. The proposition however finally
persisted, from its connection with Senatorial districts
under the census of 1910; its best friends turning
against it, from their superior dislike Of that arrange
ment.
1t is certain understand, that the bill from the
H. D. will be substituted by Senatorial districts
but whether Under the census of 10 or 90 is vet to
DE ascertuined We fear that the question is yet to
cause much trouble before the General Assembly
can agree.
