THIS WORLD OF OURS.
BY. W. @. J. BAKER.

This world of ours if free from sin,
Oh! would it not be fair
Sunshine above, and flowers beneath,
And beauty everywhere!
The air, the earth, the waters TEEN
With living things at play;
Glad nature from an hundred throats
Pours her rejoicing lay.
Each balmy breeze that wanders by,
Whispers some angel tone;
Ane she clear fountains have voice
Cf music Of lIieir own.
Even the leaves Of lie forest trees
Moved by the zephyr's wing,
Make n low murnlur of content
To little birds that sing.
The busy bees DER garden.Aowers
A holy song atune,
Joining with never firing mirth,
The minstrelsy Of June:
And the great waves upon the deep,
Leaping like giants free,
Add in their hollow monotone,
The chorus Of the sea.
There's beauty in the summer sky,
When from his ocean bed,
Like strong man refresh d by sleep,
The Sun uplfls his head -
And when behind the western rocks
At eventide he goes,
How beauteous are the crimson clouds
That curtain his repose!
Are not the grassy valleys fair,
Deck'd in their spring array?
And the high hills with forests clad,
How beautiful are they!
Look on the sea, that girdle vast,
Whercwith the earth is bound!
Even in Fancy's widest dreams
Can aught more glad be found.
oh! 'twcre indeed a radiant world,
paradise complete
So redolent Of lovely things,
So filled with voices sweet
If Sin had not in evil hour
Enter'd this pleasant cline,
Yielding them over unto Death
Sad consequence Of crime!
Hence it is that the choicest flowers
Fall by n swift decay,
And hopes tG which we fondly cling
Pass suddenly away:
Yet, mid all trials of our life
This blessed thought is given,
Earth $ not our abiding place.
Mans native cline is Heaven!

BEER DRINKING.

Mr.. Weed, of the Albany Journal

Of Beer Drinking in England:
Every body drinks BEER in England.

instances, by asking for water. When

that have seen something Of English
habits, am astonished that Miss MAR
TINEAU should have deemed the circum-
stances that two or three American wom-
en- with whom she met, were not all for
love, but little for the bottIe,' worthy
of remark. The drinking oil hale, por-
ter and stout, is universal here, with the
females Of the poorer classes, when they
can get it, and with those of the better
classes of mechanics females, people
and shopkeepess. While at dinner at
Birmingham, it was observed by all of
us, that the ladies' Ga dozan) at table,
drank porter as if they were thirsty, and
as if it did them good. The lady oppo-

well educated, disposed Of nearly an en-

of whose faces show the shrines at which
they kneel' have met ladies' at cxhi-
bhion Rooms. whose fiery faces entitled
them to the distinction OF being classed
with Shakspeares knights Of the burn
ing lamp And you find every side
walk blocked up with Iusty ladies', who
are indebted for their rubicund faces and
rotund persons, to habitunl beer drinking.
yesterday sat in an omnibus with an
old lady and gentleman, evidently of the
wealthy class, the latter Of whom VIC
