The Grave.

When life's eventful scenes are DER,
And hearts that throbb'd have ceased TO
beat,
And smile which answered smile before,
When kindred looks of love would meet /;
When all the fond affections here,
The heart could treasure, Hope could save,
Have left the mourner but tear,
Then shed the bright gem DER the Grave.
When they who wrong'd the swelling heart,
OF injured virtue, who had felt,
Submissive, wounded feelings smart,
When kindness could that bosom melt;
Then they who hated all mankind,
And, coward like, who scorn The brave,
Mock'd greatness in another's mind,
Forgive-forgive them in the Grave.
When he who shafts ofslander hurled
Against fair Virtues spotess name,
Extracting venom from the world,
Topoison Honor's deathless fame;
When he who stabb'dthy brothers breast,
And flew from Justice, like slave,
Whom Life ne'er gave moments rest,
May Heaven forgive him in the Grave
When they who wandered DER tile earth,
In quest of "trifles light as air.
Love nothing save the haunts ofmirth,
And spent their days in trfling there;
Who mingled all their sordid joys
Together here, which folly gave,
Thus lavished all that Death DESTROYS,
Forget-forget them in the Grave.
When they who wore upon their breast
The conqueror's pride & Victory 'sstars-
Meath dark plumes DER their shining crest,
Ambitions, or false glory's scars;
Who deluged smiling plains in blood,
Self-glory from the wreck 10 save,
And died, not for their country's good,
Behold their greatness in the Grave.
When they their banners waved on high,
And for their country grasped the blade,
Who fought, thus lived; thus learned to die,
Their forms in Glory's death-bed laid;
Who, seas or fields of danger crossed,
And fell, lamented by the brave,
That country's sense of honor's lost,
That could forget them in the Grave

COLUMBIA BRIDGE.

The annexed animated and graphic ac-
count of the demolition of the Columbia
Bridge, by the ice, is from the York, (Pa.
Republican.
"The destruction of the Columbia bridge.
by the choking ofthe ice in the river was
scene of terrific grandeur. The river, far
and wide, presented polar view; a sea of
ice, crushing and cracking together in the
excitement Gifts own rage. Now choking
up the avenue formed by nature for its pass
age, then, aided by the under current DIVA
ter, showing with the irresistible force of
superintendent weight, until some weak
point, unable TO sustain The mighty pressure,
or some surface, not yet completely occupi-
ed by the ice, would yield to its dominion,
and then the water, deprived Of IFS passage
would be driven back, and gurgle up, be-
tween the huge masses of ice, wherever
crack or crevice offered passage for it
Sometimes, sink ing so low as TO allow the ice
TO pass under the bridge, and again, rising
so high as to rip off the weather boarding of
the bridge like shingles sometimes bursting
through the upper sides of it, great masses Of
ice would gush out ofthe lower side. orr Iodp-
ing on the floor, shoot up in piles TO the roof
When the gorge Of the stream would omen
little, the ice cakes, with unwearied activi4
iy and perseverance, would pick out the
stones Of the piers as they passed along. un-
I'll the wooden work, unsupported, would
fall in masses ofhundreds OF feet with mich

envy and send up towards heaven cloud Of
dust, as if il scorned, like Julian the Apos-
tate, to yield even TO the superior power or
as if some mighty city had met its doom in
an earthquake, and the dust of its destruc-
ton hung like heavy cloud over it. We
have never witnessed any scene, the sea ex
copied, which gave such an impressive view
OF human littleness, or The fury Of elemental
war. About $500 feet or nearly one half
OF the bridge is gone, and the remaining por-
ton is in all probability much injured.
There is no doubt that much damaoe
