FORGIVE AND FORGET.

BY CHARLES SWAIN.
Forgive and forget! why the world would be
lonely.
The garden wilderness left 10 deform:
Ifthe flowers but remembered the chilling
winds only,
And fields gave no !verdure for fear Of
the storm!
oh, still in thy loveliness emblem the
flower,
Give the fragrance Of feeling to sweeten
life's away;
And prolong no. again the brief clouds Of
an hour,
With tears that but darken the res. Of the
day!
Forgive and Forget there's no breast so
unfeeling
But some gentle thoughts Of affection
there live;
And the best of all require something con.
ceaIing,
Some heart that with smiles can forget
and forgivei
Then away with ,he clouds from those
beautiful eyes,
Tha! brow was no home for such brows
10 have met,
oh, how could our spirit e'er hope for the
skies,
HHeaven refused to Forgive and Forget

This ointment has been used in numer-

Itch, as we'll as other Affections of the Skin,
prevailed, with the most unexampled Sue

loathsome and disagreeable affections.

THE FUTURE LIFE.


BY BRYANT.
How shall know thee in the sphere which
keeps
The disembodied spirits of the dead,
When all ofthee that time could wither
And perishcs among the dust we tread.
For l shall feel the string Of ceaseless pain
Ifthere meet thy gentle presence not;
Nor hear the voice love, nor read again
In thy serenest eyes the tender thought.
Will not thy own meek heart demand me
there!
That heart whose fondest throbs TO me
were given!
NV name on earth was ever in thy prayer,
Shall it be banished from thy tongue in
Heaven!
In meadows famed by heavens fe.breath-
ing wind,
In the resplendence Of that glorious sphere,
And larger movements Of the unfelterred
mind,
Wilt thou forget the love that join'd us
herei
The love that lived through all the stormy
past.
And meekly with my harsher nature bore,
And deeper grew; and tenderer to the last,
Shall it expire with life,and be no more!
A happier lot than mine, and larger light
Await the there, for thou hast how'd thy
will
In cheerful homage to the rule Of right,
And lowest all, and renderest COED for ill
For me, the sordid cartes in which dwell,
Shrink and consume the heart as heat
the scroll;
And wrath hath left its ear-that FIRE of hell
Has lef. its frightfal scar upon my soul.
Yet though thou wearest the glory Of the
sky,
Wilt thou keep the same beloved name,
The same fair, thoughtful brow. and gentle
eye,
Lovelier in heavens sweet climate, yet
the samel
Shalt thou not teach me, in that calmer
home,
The wisdom that learn'd SO i'll in this
The wisdom which is love-till become
Thy fit companion in that land Of bliss!

Who with e bold, assuming mien,
Loves with tho ladies' to be seen,
Though from the country fresh and green?

Who, when he speaks will give you pain,
To see how little is in his BRAIN
And yet SO graceful with his canei

Who loves TO 20 10 ball or fair.
With curly locks and oily hair,
To meet the pretty damsel there!

Who is to his own weakness blind
Thinks i. belrays noble mind
To have his .kerchief float behind?

Who goes 10 church on Sabbath day,
His dress and figure TO display,
And nod 70 ladies gracefully?

Who, when he is near is always known
BY fumes of musk or strong cologne
Their borrowed accents to hide his own!

And who through all his life will be
The laughing stock for men to see
An empty puff Of vanity'
