WHEN monday floods of radiant gold
Stream wide DER all the sky,
And earth and heaven their charms unfold
TO feast the gazer's eye,
1t is not then we mark one raw
More dazzling than the rest;
But when the sun at close of day
Has sought the glowing West.
II is not when the countless throng
Olbirds, on JOYOUS wing
Pours out one thrilling lay oil song
To greet the early Spring,
That one blithe note will fall more sweet
Than olher on the ear;
IT'S when in solitude we meet
But one, that is so dear.
When festive halls are gay and bright,
And lovely forms are there, ~
And music floats in echoes light
Upon the perfumed air,
We WOO not then the heart whose beat
Responds unto our own;
We dread lest strangers gaze should meet
The look but meant for ore.
When roaming through sweet garden bowers
We praise the beauty rare,
Yet do not Gull the stateliest flowers
That bloom in briiance there;
Butwhen, half hid from daylighr's view,
ON search one rose espies
OF fragrant scent and blu,hing hue,
That gentle flower we prize.
And woman, would she win the love
Oftrue and noble one,
From the vair crowd must far remove,
And live for him alone;
Home! home! must he a charmed word,
Holy as Eden's bower,
And she the one bright ray-the bind
The modest, shrinking flower.
And in her splits deep recess
All holy thoughts must dwell,
And looks and tones of genleuess
For those who love her we'll;
No paltry wish to fl aunt or shine,
Or seek for praise abroad
BE virtue hers-meek, pure, sublime
With hopes all stayed on God. J.C.

We honor the chivalrous Difference which
is paid in our land to women. 1t proves
that our men know how to respect virtue
and pure affection, and that our women
are worthy of such respect. Yet women
should be something more than mere wo-
man to win us TO their society. To be
our companions, they should be fitted to be
our friends; to rule our hearts, they should
be deserving the appreciation Of our minds
There are many such, and that there are
not more, is rather the fault Of our sex than
their own; and despite all the unmanly
scandals that have been thrown upon them
in prose or verse, they would rather share
in the rational conversation of men of
sense, than listen TO the silly compliments
of fools; and man dishonors them as we'll
as disgraces himself, when he seeks their
circle for idle pastme, and not for the i'm
provement of his mind and the elevation of
his heart.-Merchants' Magazine.
