"Oh. the merry june has pleasant hours,
And dreamily they glide,
As " they foated like the leaves

As they foated like the leaves
Twas in the happy month Of June when the silver
moon, half blown threw her soft rays and pale light
upon the dreaming world. The air bore healing in its
breath, the winds were STILL the trees budd0d forth
their fresh blossoms, and their tiny leaves stirred
gently with the music Of their own fragrance. Ike
watchman's measured step alone, disturbed the
dreamy silence Of the night, until the vouptuous swell
OF music burst from the stately mansion on the sunny
side of Portland Place. New York, and the voice OF
mrth the song Joy, and the sound Of gladness and
revelry, broke upon the stiffness of the lonely mid
nigh, hour-ah. what light and joy was there!
mingled with the young and beautiful in that festal
rosm, where every heart was beating faster than the
merry tune, and the bright eyes were restless, and
their lips parted with eager joy and their round cheeks
flushed with the beautiful motion Of the danco-'twas
like dream of enchantment, or the fading remem-
brance of some bright vision of the fancy, too bright
TO prove imaginary, too exhilaraiing TO prove unreal
But, TO the Idbleau-I dare not trust myself TO
describe the scenic arrangements SO truly gorgeous
were they, and therefore handy on the programme"

Before I venture n comment upon the exhibition, or
the manner in which the different performers ncqut-
ted themselves, i must name few sf those distn-
gushed voaries of fashien who composed the audi
ence on this suspicious occasion. First, on the list
(noihing invidlous) were Mr. and Mrs. Honey suckle
of WiIbraham street. and that fine celestial creature
OF the fancy, their daughter, who seemed the very
creation of vision, star pecrng from the dense folds
OF a dark cloud The father appeared 10 gaze on her
as one inheriting the full Volume Of his capacious
mind and the graees of his manly person; the mother
seemed TO feel Joyous enthusiasm at the wonderful
Developments Of her child, porraying the loneliness
beauty, innecence purity and ioyousness Of herself
oh what heavenly picture they formed How
coud-lke in grace-how celestial in purIty-how
