SONG.

cast thou not
Affection from thee! in this bitter world
Hold to thy heart that only treasure last,
it-sJfer not a breath to din
The bright gems purty.'-Anon.
If thou hast crush'd flower,
The root may not be blighted;
If thou has quench'd lamp,
Once more it may be lighted;
But on thy harp, or on thy lutte,
The string which thou hast broken,
Shall never in sweet sound again
Give to thy touch token!
If thou hast Ioos'd bird,
Whose voice of song could cheer thee
Still, still, he may be won
From the skies to MARBLE near thee;
But if upon the troubled sea
Thou hast thrown gem unheeded,
Hope not that wind or wave shall bring
The treasure back when needed.
If thou hast bruis'd vine,
The Summers breath is healing,
And its cluster yet may grow
Through the leaves their bloom reveal
ing;
But if thou hast cup o'erthrown,
With bright dranght fll'd-Oh! never
Shall earth give back that lavish'd wealth
10 cool thy parch'd lips fever!
The heart is like that cup,
If thou waste the love it bore thee,
And like that jewel gone,
Which the deep will not restore thee
And like that string of harp or lutte,
Whence the sweet sound is scatter'd-
Gently, oh! gently touch the chords,
So soon for ever shatter'd!

1t is the object of this publication, to fur
nlsh gentlemen of the bar, throughout the
United States, with the most important Brit
lsh elementary treatises upon Law, in a con-
densed form, which will render them far less
expensive than works of this description
have hitherto been. To gentlemen residing
at distance from the principal cities, the
advantages of this publication will be APP
parent. The very low price at which it will
be afforded, and the facility with which i'm
portant works, in the periodical form, can be
transmitted by mail, are the attractions upon
which it will depend for public favour.
The selection of the works to be embra-
cedin this collection, will be confied to the
gentlemen above named, already widely and
tavourably known to the profession. 1t will
be understood that i: forms no part of our
plan to admit original communications, or to
give the work in any degree, the character
OF journal. Distinct in its design, it can
not interfere with any existing periodical,
nor is it intended at any time to depart
from our present plan, which is, to reprint
British elementary treatises, suited to the bu-
slness and practice of this country, in more
cheap and convenient form than has ever
yet been done. For this purpose the pro-
Prletor will receive from his agent in Lon
don, at the earliest date, every important
publication as 1t issues from the press.
The series will be commenced with Theo-
bald's Practical Treaties on the law of prin-
cipal and Surety, Particularly with relation
to Mercantile Guarantees, Bills of Exchange,
and Bail Bonds, vol. svo. London, 1882.
The price of this work is now SO rs. The
entire work will be included in one number
