But the husband ap- peared to be insensible to inc afeciionate remonstrances of his wife, and artless per- suasions his children. His eldest daugh- ter, who on former occasions had gone on this errand, was nov compelled to perform this; the brandy was obtained, and his wife looked with fearful and painful fore boding upon the decanter which contained the fatal poison. He looked upon the bran dy, and approaching the table with chair, he sat down and took the decanter tn his hand he held it to the light, aud observed how beautiful it's color. He then apostro- phised thus: O how loved thee, thou en- ticing aud misery-dispensing spirit; thou hast been my bosom companion from morn till night, and from night till morning. I have loved thee with love surpassing that of women, aud have grieved as mother grieves over the dead body of her child, when I found that the spirit of the bottle had departed; but I have found thee de- ceptious and ungrateful. Thou didst des- troy my reputation, thou didst rob my pock- o'' ANU gave uC OlSSdSo lIlStcdu OI Ic0Iti9 and made the heart of my wife pulsate with unhaPpiness. My children wept a, the ruin you entailed, and my house you made desolate and sorrowlul. Twelve months have I parted from you, and now re- nounce you forever, thou agent of destruc- tion !! thou demon of despair! thou accur- sed alloring poison! With that. he hoist- ed the window, threw the bottle into the street, and declared the victory was won. His wife rushed into his arms, joy beaming in her countenance. She could only utter. my husband who tenderly embraced her, and sealed her forehead with kiss. The children ran to their father, climbing his knees, and their cheerful prattllng told how they partook of the sympathetic joy Even Neptune on the hearth rug raised his head, gave an encouraging look to his master, and wagged his tail with evident delight.

The Bridegroom to has sleeping Bride. Sleep, loved one, sleep-thy tangled hair Flows loosely OCT thy bosom bare; Yet sleep in peace-no prying eye, Except thy lovers own, is nigh. Sleep, dearest sleep-thy lovers breast
 Pillows thy rest. Sleep on, sleep on-nay, do not start 'Tis but thy lovers beating heart, Whose pulses throb against thy cheek, Tokening the love they cannot speak. Sweet dreamer, sleep-thy lover's eye
 Is watching nigh. Sleep on, sleep on, sweet folded flower, Till rosy mornings dawning hour; Sleep and dream on-thy lovers arm Is fondly sheltering thee from harm; Sleep and fear not-thy lovers ear
 Is listening near. Omnipo:ent of earth and heaven! By whom all blissful gifts are given To whom this treasured one I owe, That sleeps upon my bosom now give thee thanks for every bliss,
 But most for this!
