OH TOUCH 1T NOT by E. Burke Fisher.

Hasting on ago and wiIful poverty
II browns thy better parts, making thy name,
To foes laughter, to thy friends shame.
Randolph.
tOh, touch il not! - and tho mothers brow
Is blanchsd with fears for her young, glad boy /;
Though Pleasures smiles on the surface glow,
There is danger beneath, and it will destroy
But the boy laughs loud, and his bright eyes shine
As he quafs from tho bowl the rich, red wine.
Oh touch il not and the wife first tears
Gem the lashes dark of a lowell. eye;
Though joys bright form in the cup appears
"ris phantom wild and will quickly Ayr
But the brdegroom's arms the pleader entwine,
As he quafs from the bowl tho rich, red wine
'Oh, touch it not its the dying speaks
Her love proved true in that parting breath;
By the painful past,-for your children's sakes'
Put away the cup for it hostens death !
Her last glance prays for favoring sign,
All! he quails from the bowl tho rich, red wine
ooh, touch 1t not by her mothers dust
The fair girls tears wet the sacred sod;
But turn to the pence and the paths of God
Sufferer, what cares he for prayers of thine,
As he quafs from the bowl the rich, red wlne'
ooh, touch it not ut is Virtnes hand
Would tear the cup from his grasp away;
The graves of a household rise where you stand
Forsake the curst bowl, and repent and pray
But the drunkard refuses the cup to resign,
And still quatfs from the bowl the rich, red wine.
Oh, touch it not! and Religions voice
For him, the bacchanal is given;
THAT the good on Earth find cause TO rejoice,
And thy ransomed soul he fit for Heaven!
The plea is all vain, for at Gods own shrine
He will quaff from the bowl the rich, red wine.
ooh touch II mott would say to all
Let the mothers prayer with her son prevail;
And the wifes FIRST tears will ne er bightng fall,
Nor the rose the daughters cheek grow pale
Then let each fl zee voice join its strength with mine;

OH! ROSY TWILIGHT STAR.

by RICHARD HowITT
On rosy twilight star,
l behold thee shine affair."
Now clouds near the sun crimson and yellow;
And the golden autumn light
With the shadows of the night
Is bent, and with the sounds Of eve soft and elbow
Oh bliss tliflusing star
Oh memory halowed bar
'Twxt the night and The day sweet division
Thou art purpling all about
Thou art wooing lovers out;
And the world, in thy smile, glows Elysian.
Nov quiet, with spread wings,
Is descending on al things,
And dews bent with sleep, are wept from The willow
And the sun has babe good night
With trail ofgiorous light,
AS he sank from the sight to sleep in the bllow.

ORIGINAL FOE TRY.
THE YOUNG BRIDE.

The circumstances related are literally trHc.l
SnE was "thc lily of her line
The clHlJ Of northern sun,
4 short-Iycd flower, and beautiful,
That CHERISHED orphan one,
or oyehucss the peerless queen,
And mbnstrcIy aud song,
Amid the fairy crowd she stood,
The brightest Of the throng.
And there were that sought her love
With whispered vows sincere,
But long uuwon--u nmoycd her heart
And deaf her virgin ear.
At last appeard gallant youth
Ills voice was sweet ana bland
She own'l its powcr--his noble worth,
Ana yielded up her hand.
Soon from the altar FAR he bore
His gifted, gentle bride,
With smiles Of Joy bis home to gIN,
Aud grace his manly side.
And much of bliss he iondIy hoped,
Was still for him in store,
Nor dreamd he Of an aoguish'd heart,
Or blooming bride no more.
For like summers tranquil sea,
Their life unrullled sccm'd,
No cloud obscur'd hopes joyous star,
That swceiIy on them beam'd,
Bot soon the transient hectic glow
Across that check was tlre~n,
Where late the constant roseatc hue,
SO purely brightly sbone.
And soon Gorcsaw that husbands eye,
The dark impending doom
His blasted hope--his coming wo--
The deatf-bcd and the tomb
Oh who can tell hi, anguish then,
His hearts deep wild Despair
The feelings in bis bosom reused,
That Gcrccly struggled there
And who her agony csn paint
That young bride sorrow know,
When FIRST hor husbands grief she saw
Ills manly bosom's so,
But lIicy must part--aye, quickly part
She felt the hour draw nigh,
And gently brcoth'd one sad request,
Twas 'mong her friends TO die.
"0h bear me ts my early home,
Oh, bear me hence she cried,
"Aad lay me in tie cburcA-yard there,
Ny mothers gravc beside"
And thitherwor! her fading iorm,
Her husband gently bore,
But OH those lrienjs-ihat early home
Her eyes behcII no more.
Hcrhearfs fond goal well nigh uttuin'd,
Stern death the wish denied
She murmur'd not, but gently how'd
Like some sweet flower, and died,
And where the Hudsons noble tide,
Rolls on its sunny wave,
There IS one lalow'd spot Of Garth,
One fresh and lonely grave.
And hearts there are that love that spot,
And tears that DER il shine,
For It's thy owiy resting place,
Thy glaYe--swcet EMELNE

COLDS rUI Eclipse Cooking Stove.
THREE SIZES.

FNHE attention of the community IS contl-
 l nually called to this, and that, and the other Cooking Stoce; each claimed to be the very best, and entitled to homage almost as great as was paid to "molten images" when t was proclaimed "These be thy gods, O Is- rael." The subscriber worships no such "work of the craftsmen" nor does he desire that even his own 'IQtest improvement should be regarded beyond its well attested merit. The "ECL1PsE COOKING STovE"-which has, been in very extensive use for the last two years, received its name at first from the pe- culiar construction of its front part directly over the fire, and which is made to adapt it. self to kitchen utensils of any size but a dis corning public have since decided its claim to the title for other reasons too obvious to mention. Do other stoves speedily warm q room? so does this. Do they bake well. boil we'll, roast we'll? so does this Are they hand some? so is this. Can their inventors refer to gentlemen who will recommend their stoves! We might refer to gentlemen, aye, and to LADIES too so numerous and so highly respecta ble, that we must decline doing it, from motives of delicacy, as it would be invi- (lious to attempt selection.
