Adieu, Columbia ! have ma ked thee well,
Nor yet for ever do leave thee now.
And busy thoughts OF thee my bosom swell,
And ,hrouging recollection. load my brow;
For have rOamed through thy eternal woods,
Have dreamed in fair ST. Lawrence regal isle
Have breasted Mississippi's hundred foods,
And wooed on Alleg top Aurora swaking
smile.
And now we part the ship is flying fast,
Her pathway decked by wreaths Of whirling
foam,
And allthe swelling sails that bend the mast
Obey the flag tina, Auuering points "to home"
Home Home! that tender word let retrace
And bid each letter conjure o'er the sea
Each cherished wish and every welLknown face
To Danish thoughts of those from whom flee
Yet shame not to bear DER full heart,
Nor blush to turn behind my fearful eyes.
It's from no stranger coast nov must pat,
It's to strangers left yield these sighs-
Welcome and home mine in this loved land,
Whose sons love, whose shores fade fast
from me,
And cold must be mine eyes, and heart, and hand,
When fair Columbia they turn cold on thee

MARRIAGES IN PERSIA.

Marriages in Persia are contacted by
the parents, and the betroihment takes
place at a very early age. The BRIDE
groom is consequently spared the wooing

him by parental kindness. The court.

marriage ceremony. was curious 10
learn how the contract was entered into,
since the groom is never permitted to see
his bride until three days after marriage.
She is reported to him BY some female me-
gotlaior to be more blooming than the
rose, more odoriferous than the violet,
better formed than Hebe," at which de.
scrp,ion " his heart becomes coal, and
his liver dried np." He then contracts
with her parents for the dowry which he
is to bestow on his wife. The contract
being settled, moolah signs it, and the
ceremony soon alter takes place, each
party being within hearing at the time,
but not visible. The service is short and
simple. 81, NJ, the authorized proxy for

wife, for such dowry as you have agreed
upon" The other replies, Z" ], NJ, the
authorized proxy for you, L., do take her

the dowry agreed upon by both parties"
Some PRAYERS are then read by the moo
lah, and he inquiries Of each Of the invisi.
bic persons whether they agree TO the
contract. They answer in the afiirma.
tive, and he then declares them to be law
full man and wife. When the ceremony
is at an end, the veil is thrown over the
bride which is brought for her by the
groom, she is furnished with some aro-
matte seeds, which she must eat on arri'
val at the house Of her husband, in order
TO have sweet breath in his presence; a
little camphor of rose water is given to
her. The bride sets out on horseback for
her new residence, accompanied by all
her relations, who carry with them pre-

her poetic invocation

the poorest person never less than three
