From the Southern Literary Messenger.
 NATURES LESSON

nYA. B. MEEK. The face of Nature lives with beauty,
 But man negects the bright display; All-unobserpant of his duty,
 He wears sightless life away How sweet the rosy morning breaking
 Der dewy lawn and wooded hill !-- Fair alchemist !all-golden making
 The waving grove. the rimplins Till Goes with the sun imperial splendos
 Der sea and sky and tsstal earth; From blue browed noon to twilight tender, Each way. arc orbs of heavenly birth When far away. mid flashing bannss.
 A countless army-snks the sun, What watch-frss light the blue Savannahs.
 With spirit-guards round every ons All through the night they burn and brighten. The out posts of the heavenly land, Beneath their rays the hill-tops whtcn.
 And still as spe-bound giants stand! And oh the moon i--pale mother Mary
 How fair she makes the balmy night! Her brow may wane, her beauty vary.
 Through all her presence is delight! Yes ever lovey--carth and ocean
 Feel fairer in her silvery beam; The swan of heaven with stateliest motion She cleaves her blue, star-pebbled stream Lo like an arch by angels bended
 For triumph high in Spirit Lanh Enwreathed with flowers all-hued and blonded-- The rainbow OCT the valley spannsd Almost it seems with beauty vital;
 The valley glows heath its embrace; And yon clear stream, with proud requiul.
 Slides through it's deep mirrored grace All things around thus tell of Eden.
 If man would only list and look; All have beauty art exceeding,
 From sunsets pomp to chrystal brook. The seasons.-each new creation
 In linked circles press around; .Let there be lght"-the revelation
 Responsive clothes the dadal ground. When spring OCT hill and dell is bushing
 country girl all smiles and flowers What constant melody is gushing
 From countless minstrels through the bowers The crimson summnr has his glory,
 And mellow Autumn rainbow light, And winter. sear-like, all hoary, Sparkles with gems and robes of white These things are given us to inspire
 A love for Natures geAtle face. Make man more willing to admire
 His beauty buded dwelling place Oh, yes if we would listen To it,
 The anthem, round, below, above. Each heart would leap to lite-a poet Each soul be brimmcd with bliss and love For l have learned these pregnant lessons
 The soul is fashioned by the spheres Imperishable in it's essence,
 It still the chain of Nature wears! By beauty into beauty moulded,
 Or marred by backncss and by storm. From influences which entod 1t. Il takes it's coloring and its form Who. then would perfect strength inherit.
 Must feed his soul at beauty s fount-- The breast of Nature--and his spirit, In triumph thence will stalward mount.
