THE LONELY HE RI.

BY MISS CATHARINE II. HERMAN.
Go forth among the merry throng
And mark the sunny eye,
Then listen, midst tbr swels of song,
For one murmur sigh.
Look on the rose encircled brow,
Pierce thro' its masking art,
And learn of her who revels hoE
TO bear lonely heart.
Go take the wanderers hand in thine,
Who stands apart frsm all,
Within whose eye pale waters shine,
And dry them ere they fall.
Mark the deep flush that stains his cheek,
The quick Unconscious start,
Ask not the cause, pride is too weak
TO veil lonely heart.
Go where the couch of pain IS spread,
Where the dark wings of death
Hover above tue aching head,
To bear away the breath.
M ,rk that dull eye, how oft II turns,
How oft the pale lips part,
For one long boarded hope, how yearns
That dying, lonely heart
Yes-thou mayst see it thro' the CLEAN
That lights up beauty's eye,
And in the wanderers home brought dream
Beneath strangers sky.
And by the couch pam, when earth
Claims back its kindred part,
Few, lew are those Of mortal birth,
But know the lonely heart.

SCULPTURE. AND PAINTING.

| Cincinnati ! What is there in the atmos-
Iphere Of Cincinnati that has so throughly
awakened the arts ofSculpt ufe and Paintingl
1t cannot surely be mere accident which gives
birth to so many artists, all of distinguished
merit too, and what must be quite as gratifying
to that clty-all possessing high moral worth.
X would be quite honor enough for any
place to claim one eminent sculptor or pain

Der. Power is actually astonishing all Eu-

will go to Italy.
The greatest difficulty with sculptors is to
embody expression, particularly when it is
mixed one Bracket has been eminently sue
ccssful in this way, and it IS that which has
brought HIM SO immediately before the public.
The very second bust which he made in this
city is study for an artist. The likeness is
excellent and the expression beautiful; it com
blnes gentleness benignity and benevolence,
all characteristic of the man. He has been
equally successful in the likeness Of Mr.. G. f.
Grim, Mr.. Rufus Dawes, Mr.. Grimes, the
chronological lecturer, and recently in that of
a gentleman whose name dare not mention
lest he might take offence, for he
Put out bis hand, and art, which dropped her head,
Received new life and round lustre she'd.
Would to Heaven that this generous, foster
ing spirit dwelt more frequently with the rich;
we should then more than rival Rome and
Greece in their best days.
Powell, as painter, is winning golden
opinions amongst us-he, too, is modestly and
silently working his way to Italy. His por-
traits are excellent likenessess and very spiri-
ted, and his improvement in the art is very
apparent. This young artist is blest with all
the requisites which insures success, for indie
pendently his skill, he is gentle and refined
in his manners and dispositions that truly,
Cincinnati may say thatmoraland intellectual

But is this talent exclusively confined to
men-in painting, at least there is Begin
ming. In the Apollo Gallery there are speci-
mems of all the Cincinnati artists, and among
the miniatures there is all exquisite little pic

Cincinnati, who has executed number of
these beautiful little keepsakes all destined for

The AGE OF MARvELs.-This is indeed an

wonderful discovery or invention. How true
Soever the adage may, for ages past have been,
that " the age of miricles have ceased" these
latter times disclose the return of those "sat-

with the wonderful, and dash of the marvel

There are many more wonderful things hap
