That like blossom just unfolding,
She open'd to Life's elondless air,
And Nature joyid TO view its moulding;
Her smile, il haunts my memory yet
Her rosebud mouth--her eyes Of Jet
Around on all their light beslowing;
Oh! who coule look on such form,
So noby free, 80 softly tender,
And darkly dream that earthly storm
Should dim such sweet, delicious splendor!
For in her mien, and in her face,
And in her young steps fairy lightness
Nought could the raptursd gaEer trace
But Beauty's glow, and Pleasures brightness.
saw her twice--an alter'd charm
But still of magic richest, rarest,
Than girlhood's tallsman less warm,
Though yet Of earthly sights the fairest;
Upon her breast she held child,
! The very image of its mother;
/ Which ever to her smiling smiled,
They sesm,d TO live but in each other
But matron cares, or lurking woe,
Her thoughtless, snless look had banish'd,
And from her cheek the roseate glow
OF girhood's balmy morn had vanished;
Within her eyes, upon her brew,
Lay something softer, tOnder, deeper,
As if in dreams some vision'd woe
Had broke the Elysium of the sleeper.
| saw her thrice-Fatc's dark decree
In Widows garments had array'd her,
Yet beautiful she seemed to be,
As even my reveries portrayed her;
The glow, the glance had pass'd away,
The sunshine, and the sparkling glitter;
Still, though noted pale decay,
The retrospect was scarcely bitter;
For, in their place a calmness dwelt,
Serene, subduing, soothing, holy,
In feeling which, the bosom felt
That every louder mirh is folly
A pensiveness, which is not grief,
A stilness--as Of sunset streaming
fairy glow on flower and leaf,
: Till earth looks like a landscape dreaming.
= IA last time--and unmoved she lay,
3 Beyond Life's dim, uncertain river,
A glorious mould of fading clay,
i From whence the spark had fed forever;

I And, as thought of years departed,
i The years wherein waw the first,
: When she, girl, was tsnder-hearted,--
n And when mused on later days,
Il AS moved she in her matron duty,
A happy mother, in the blaze
8 OF ripen'd hope, and sunny beauty

RUSSIAN Madame Junot says,
that in the preceding year young PlatOf was
billetted on her hotel. He used to turn in
all standing, boots and spurs into her fine
white sheets, and was endowed with so
splendid an appetite, that it was all that her
maitre d'hotel could do to keep pace with it..
The whole household was lost in wonder,
and among them laid plot to check this
march Of stomach, if possible. They gave
the young Cossack pretty strong dose of
tartar emeiic, and waited with anxiety for
the result. Presumption and vanity to think
that any thing but a cannon ball would turn
the stomach Of Russian accustomed to the
digestion Of train-oil, bullock's liver, and
saw-dust rusks. The patient fellinto pro-
found sleep of some hours, and then awoko
calling Justly for his dinner, TO the great
horror and dismay of Madame's establish

who take only single weekly paper, and which
