DEATH.-The first conviction that there is
death in the house, is perhaps, the most awful
moment of youth. When we are young, we
think that not only ourselves, but that all
about us are immortal. Until the arrow has
struck victim round our hearth, death is
merely an unmeaning word until then, its
casual mention has stamped no idea upon our
brain. There are few, even among those least
suspected Of thought and emotion, in whose
hearts and minds the first death in the family
does not act as very powerful revelation of
the mysteries of life and of their own being /;
there are few who, after such a catastrophe, do
not look upon the world and the worlds ways,
at least fora time, with changed and tempered
feelings. II recalls the past, it makes us pom
der over the future and youth, gay and light
hearted youth, is taught, for the first time to
regret and fear.

MATERNAL AFFECTION.

Woman's charms are very many and pow
erful. The expanding rose just bursting into
beauty, has an irresistible charm; the youth
full bride led triumphantly 10 the hymeneal
altar, awakens powerful feelings of interest
and the blush of her cheek fills the beholder
with delight-but the charm of maternity is
much more sublime than all these. Heaven
has imprinted on a mothers face something
beyond this earth, something which claims
kindred with the heavens; the angelic smile,
the loving look the watchful eye, which keeps
its fond vigil over her sumbering babe these
are the objects which no artist can touch,
which poetry fails TO exalt, which the most
eloquent tongue cannot eulogize, and on which
description becomes ineffective. In the heart
of man lies this lovely picture; it lives 10 his
sympathies, it reigns in his affections his eye
looks in vain for such another object on EARTH
Maternity, delightful sound so entwned
around our hearts, that they must cease to throb
ere we can forget il. IT'S our first love; Ills
part of our religion. Nature has set the moth
er upon such height that our infant eyes and
arms are first uplifted 10 il; we cling TO it in
the meridian of life; we almost worship il in
old age. He who can enter the abode of
family and behold the tender babe feeding on
its mothers beauty@nourished by the tide of
life which flows through her veins, without
painting bosom and a grateful eye, is void of
those feelings which characterize the man of
sentiment and generous affections. He who
can approach the cradle of sleeping innocence,
without rejecting that ''of such is the kingdom
of heaven" or view the delighted mother hang
over its beauties, and half retain her breath
lest she should break its slumbers without
veneration beyond all common feelings, pos
posses heart which none ought to envy and
should be avoided in every intercourse of life.

TO A FRIEND.
REMEMBER Me.

REMEMBER ME.
When morning beams with splendour bright,
In glory doth arise,
And sprinkle DER with rosy light,
The fair and tranquil skies
When musick's notes are chanted forth,
And heard from ev'ry tree,
In this gay hour of natures mirth,
MY Friend-remember me.
And when you walk among the bow'rs,
Which Nature gay bath made,
And Gull their fair adjoining fiow'rs,
Or reclne in their shades
While you, with Nature thus engage,
And all her beauties see,
Let fancy point TO mem'ry's page,
There read-remember me.
And when the beauties Of the day
Are past, and night have come,
And curtan'd round the bright and gay,
With sad and pensive gloom
Then, as before the Affairs airline,
You humbly bend the knee,
And supplicate for grace divine,
o then-remember me- JuNius.
