'I'is bright and dewy morning; springs
Glad nature forth to meet the day;
: Gaily the forest warbler sings
And fast night shadows flee away.
The mist rolls up the mountain S'oc'
In wavy folds of heavenly Que, .,.
The autumn flowers come 'orth IL p'lue'
And beauty reigns Ger EARN anu Soy
S,cb was the hour which | may neer
Nor can remember but with agony!
UJ,w vivid is the scene before me yet,
Though year, one year, hath heavily
rolPd by,
Since nv owed sister bowed her head
to die.
The rosy tints that lighted up the
East,
Were all unhceded by her languid eye,
Her snowy hands were folded Oh her
breast,
And there she lay like an o'erweasled
child at rest.
They told me she was dying, but no
trace
OF the last mortal strife was visible,
Save the deep paleness that o'erspread
her face,
Aud clammy sweat which heavily and
Hung on her brow; around her mouth
was still
Playing a radiant smile; oft have |
That fair one leading captive hearts at
will,
Yet ne'er when gaycst in her word
and mien,
Wore that sweet face, smile 50
heavenly and serene.
Ii spoke Of perfect peace and still the
calm,
Placid expression Of that parting b.ow
Lives in my memory, and steals Nkc

Over nv wounded spirit: it hath

OF priceless value, and when storms
arise,
And clonds DER nv horizon darkly lower

And pant to share with her, the rich

While life yet wears its warm and

Are tboruless, and no winter chill they

May stand complete at last, where joys

Well may we bear the varied ills that

LOVE.

Love is new intelligence entered into
the being it is the softest, but the most sub
tie light; in all experience il deceives itself:
but how many truths does it teach-how
much knowledge does it impart! 1t makes
US live to thousand feelings, Of whose We
ry existence, till then, we had not dreamed
The poets page has new magic; we COM
prehend all that had before seemed graceful
exaggeration, we now find that poetry falls
short of what it seeks to express; and we
take new delight in the musical language
that seems made for tenderness. Even into
philosophy is carried the deeper truth ofthe
heart-and how many inconsistencies are
at once understood We grow more indul-
gent, more plying and one sweet weak
ness OF our own leads to much indulgence
for others. We doubt however, whether
the term weakness be not misapplied in this
case. If there be one emotion that redeems
our humanity, by stirring all that is geneI-
Gus and unselfsh within us, that awakens
all the poetry of our nature, and that makes
us believe in that heaven of which it bears
the likeness, it is love; love, spiritual devot-
ed and eternal; love that softens the shadow
of the valley of death, 10 welcome us after
10 its own and immortal home. Some
GreeK poet says-"What does he know
who has not suffered" He might have
asked-"What does he know who has not
l0yedi" Alas! both questions are synony-
mousl Heaven help the heart that breaks
with il after knowledge! How sad seemed
the lot Of young girl, touched by all the
keen susceptibilities of youth, full Of gentle
and shrinking tenderness, fated to be unre-
turnedl Nothing can compensate TO name
less fascination about beauty, which seems,
like all fairy gifts, crowded into one. Ii
without an effort, and obtains credit for pos
sessessing every thing else. How many
notifications, from its very cradle, has the
pnpieasing exterior TO endure! TO be un-
ioved--what fate for woman whose ele-
roenl is lowell Miss LandOR.
