by his vile oficiousncss, he makes that pol
son effective, which else were inert; for three

When we are deeply mournful, discordant
above all others is the voice Of mirth;-the
ittest spell is that borrowed from melancho-
ly itself, for dark thoughts can be softened
down, when they cannot be brightened-and
so they lose the precise and rigid outline Of
their truth, and their colors melt into the
blood As the leach applies as remedy to
the internal sore, some outward irritation,
which, by gcntlcr wound, draws away the
venom Of that which is more deadly; thus, in
the ranking letters Of the mind, our art is
to divert to a mder sadness on the surface,
the pain that gnaweth ut the core.

WINTER HYMN.

BY MRS. l.. u. sIGoURNKY.
Oh Thou, who bidd'st the Sun,
The glittering landscape light.
While mountains, Wales and hilocks shin,
Ia Winters frost work bright.
The imploring treos stretch forth
Their trusting arms TO Thee,
Who shield st the naked IN their hour.
OF cold adversely.
Thou, DER the tender germ
The curtaining snow dos, spread.
And give it sluriber like babe
Deep in its cradle-bed.
A chain is on the streams.
And on the Summer flood.
Yet still their sparkling eyes look up.
And beam with gratitude.
The bee hath left her toll,
Within her cell to sleep,
The warbling tenants Of the cloud.
A silent Sabbath keep.
Thou mak'st the heightened eve,
The friend Of Wisdom prove,
And bidd's, il bind con6diny hearts
In closer links OF love.
Oh Thou, the God OF fhope,
Blcst Author OF our days,
Forbid that Winter chill our heart,
Or check the lay Of praise.

THE HISTORY OF LIFE.

NY B. CORNWALL.
Day dawn'd. Within a curtain'I room
Fill'd TO faintness with perfume,
A lady lay at point Of doom.
Day closed. A child had seen the light,
But for the lady, fair and bright,
She rested in undreaming night!
Spring came. The lady's grave was green
And near il oftentimes was seen,
A gentle boy, with thoughtIess mien.
Years had fed lie wore n manly face.
And struggled in tho worlds rough race,
And won at last lofty place.
And then HE died! Behold before 20,
Humani,y's brief sum and story,
Life, Death, and all that is of-Glory.

Opsn the grave. the vaulted grave,
For the weary ones Of earth
They are pressing on, and their bosoms heave
For the morn Of heavenly birth;
They are pressing on--iD the mockery
or JOY and Of hope they long to diei
They are pressing on, in the strength OF power.
And the pride Of weath--,hey wait the hour.
Ye may sec them in the hall Of song,
by the lamps high flaming light,
Where pipe and tabour their notes prolong,
And jewels nre sparkling bright,
in the show OF beauty, mirth and pride
Light down the mazy dance they glide;
BY the pad cheek meath the smile they wear,
And the smoiher'd sigh. ye may trace them there
They are deck'd in the ruby's ruddy glow.
And the wealth OF the Gar down sea;
And the diamond shines. but to mock their wo.
And proclaim the spirit FREQ.
Bot alas, alas for the fond hopes crush'd,
For the tones Of love in the dark tomb hush'd.
For affections changed and vows forgot
Nor gems, nor pearls, can that memory blot.
Raise ye the veil at the festal hour,
From that fair unfuuowed brow;
A brde!--but wo for the bridegroom's power
The grave We "'sy open now;
from the glitteriDg robes o, royalty,
Peers the broken heart ihro' the sunken eye:
And the wreath Of fame crowns the weary band
Mid the honor'd crowd, they hopeless stand
Ye may trace them in the house OF prayer,
On the lowIy bended knee
With uplifted eye and brow Of care
The burthened soul to free.
Then open the grave-they arc passing on,
In the beauty Of youth, but visage wan
In festal halls meath the laurcfs wave,
They are weary Of earth-open the grave.
