POETRY.
THE. SON OF GEN US.

-
He was son OF genius-mind
Threw Ger his face sparkling light,
And soaring fancy, unconfned,
scatter'd rich gems in each new flight;
Gems in no bonow'd lustre drest,
Pure from the unlathomed mine Of thought,
More brilliant and more rich contest,
Than all from stores of learning brought
He was a son Of genius-life
Was full Of visionary things;
The grovelling earth its cares and strife,
Were not for his maginings.
lie half disdain'd his fellowship
With those who could not feel like him
And have seen him curl his lip,
And laugh as iffrom sudden whim.
And nothing then the strange surprise,
The cold uncomprehendng look,
Contempt has spoken from his eyes,
And few could the expression brook;
And those who loved him griev'd to see
How few could love him, while his heart
Rejected all the sympathy
Which common feelings could impart.
lie had no common feelings--hs
Were wild, uncertain, fitiu CLEANS
He saw the world not as ii is,
But as it seem'd in fancy's dreams.
The gifted are not happy-yet
The thoughtless envy them those powers
Which often in the mind are set
To fit the heart for gloomy hours,
lie could not feel as others do,
Who take from ordinary things
Their cast in life--and thus pursue
In beaten tracks their wanderngs;
lie sought the untrodden paths of light,
And drew from earth, and sky, and sea,
Their hidden treasures; all too bright
For life in its reality
lie was a son Of genus--hope
TO him was like the eagles plume,
Its highest visions were the scope
OF all his thoughts; yet morbid gloom
Would sometimes hover Ger his heart
A dark, bnpervious agis there
While joy and pleasure stood apart,
And cast their smiles upon the air.
He was son Of genus-love
Within his deep, impassioned breast
Was not feeling which could rove,
Neither in which he might be blest.
There was but one in the whole range
Ofthe universe, whose lot
lie would have link'd with his-'twas strange:
Alike in soul she loved him not.
Why it was thus, he never tried
To know-enough that he had deign'd
TO offer her his heart-his pride
Persuaded not, nor yet complain'd,
But he forsook the crowded halls,
And shann'd awhile the haunts Of men;
Immured within his sturdy walls,
lie gave his feelings to his pen.
The thoughts that breath the words that burn
Hush'd swiftly o'er the trembling Tyre,
As ifin quenching love he'd learn'd
To light anew bright genius fire.
And then he sought the voice Of fame
To drown that silent memory;
And strain'd each nerve to give his name
The shade Of Immortality.
He had noble spirit-all
That made him seem at times unkind,
Was, that his friends appear'd so small,
In contrast with his giant mind:
And half in sorrow, halfin scom,
He coldly, carelessly pass on
Griev'd and yet proud that he was born
To stand thus in the world alone.
Such was the gifted--envy not
His strange and wayward destiny;
There is no bliss in such lot,
Where none can feel in sympathy:
Better to have kindred mind
With beings in an hnmbler sphere,
Than those deep feelings, too refined,
For mortals while they linger here. tEsteH'

ROMANTIC STORY.

The Rev. R. Warner, in his Literary Recollections, relates short but romantic story respecting Miss Nancy Bere. This young lady was, at an early age, adopted by Mir. Hackman. and his lady, under the following circumstances 'Her (Mrs. Hackman's) garden, in which alone she found particular pleasure, stood in need, as usual in the spring season, of an active weeder; and John the footman, was des- patched to the poor house to select little pauper girl qualified for the performance of this necessary labor. He executed his commission in trice brought back di- minutive female of eight or nine years of age, pointed out the humble task in which she was to employ herself, and left her to her work. The child alone amid the flow CTS, began to warble her native wood notes wild' in tones of more than common sweetness. Mrs. Hackman's chamber win- dow happened to be thrown up; she heard the little weeder's solitary song; was struck with the rich melody of her voice, and in- quired from whom it proceeded. 'Nan- cy Bere. from the poor house, was the an- swer. By Mrs. Hackman's order, the songstress was immediately brought to the. lady's apartment, who became SO pleased at this first interview, with her naivette, in- teliigence, and apparently amiable disposi- tion, that she determined to remove the warbling Nancy from the work-house, and attach her to her own kitchen establish. nent. The little maiden, however, was too good and attractive to be permitted to re- main long in the subordinate condition of a scullion's deputy. Mrs. Hackman soon preferred her to the office of lady's maid and, to qualify her the better for this atten- dance on her person, had her carefully in- structed in all the elementary branches of education. The intimate intercourse that now snbsisted between the patroness and ! her protegee quickly ripened into the ! warmest affection on the one part, and the | most grateful attachment on the other.-l Nancy Bere was attractively lovely, and still more irresistible, from uncommon sweetness of temper, gentleness of disposi- tlon, and feminine softness of character and Mrs. Hickman, whose regard for her daily increased, proposed, at length, to her complying husband that they should adopt the panper orphan as their own daughter. From the moment of the execution of this plan. every possible attention was paid to the education of Miss Bere; and, | pre- sume, with the best success. as have al- ways understood she became highly &C., complished yonng lady. Her humility and modesty. however. never forsook her. and her exaltation to Mr. Hackman's family seemed only to strengthen her gratitude to her partial and generous beneiactress. It could not be thought that such a flower as the adopted beauty
 Was born to blush unseen,

 or that, however reiirod her lifo nigh. be, Miss Bsre would semain long tho beloved pFotegee Of Mr. and Mrs. Hackman, wi.h- Out h0ing EemaEked, admired, and sOlicit- 'd 70 change her name. Very shortly, in.
