THE GIRL LEAVE BEHIND Me-
The boat is loosened from the strand.
And cleaves her liquid way;
Now faint appears the distant land.
Like inorn's first shadows gray:
But oh, there is one gentle tie,
Which fain would firmly bind me,
May Heaven rroect with watchful eye
The giil leave behind me
Still do fix my lingering gazo
On that fast fading shore,
While memory muse,h upon days
That may return no more.
All little deemed that the spell
Oflove so drm could bind me:
May heaven in mercy cherish well
The girl leave behind mo-
Love It's the beacon light oflife,
On beings troubled ocean
That gilds its maddened waves OF strife.
And calms their rude commotion:
Aud while its beam doth constant burn.
Though storms aud tenpests find me.
Ny faithful soul shall even turn -

AnecdOte.-The following anecdote,
though very old, is yet quite good, and we
are not aware that it has ever been pub
lished "A clergyman, who had a consd-
cradle of farm, as was generally the case
in our forefather' days, went out to see one
of his laborers, who was ploughing in the
field, and he found him sitting upon his
plough and resting his team. "John," said
he, "wouId it not be a good plan for you to
have a stub-scythe here, and be hubbing a
few bushes while the oxen are resting 2"
John made no reply, but with countenance
which would well have become the divine
himself, instantly returned,-" Would it
not be well, Sir, for you to have swing
ling board up in the pulpit, and when they
are singing, to swingIe a little flax p The
Reverend turned on his heel, laughing hear
tily, and said no more about hubbing bush

Lore and Insanity.-A most affecting
case is related by DR.. Nevins, in his treatise
on disorders of the brain. A lady on the
point of marriage, whose intended husband
usually travelled by the stage coach to visit
her, went one day to meet him, and found,
instead of her lover, an old friend, who came
to announce to her the tidings of his sud-
den death. She uttered scream, and
piteously exclaimed, SIS he dead p But
then all consciousness ofthe affliciion which
has befallen her ceased. "From that fatal
moment" says the author, "has this unfor-
tunate female daily, for fifty years, trovers-
cd the distance of few miles to the spot
where she expected her future husband to
alight from the coach; and every day she
