ELEGANT ExTRAcr.--The following is
an extract from All Grafton delivered by
Dr.. George w. Be,hune before the litera-
ry societies of Dickinson College. The
Grafton opens with the following fine pas
sage:
"Theie is story told somewhere, of
one who came back, after long absence,
to the scenes of his youth. He had gone
forth in early adventure TO distant lands,
and the hope of return had cheered his
many years of foreign toll, until the noon
of life found him drawing near once more
to the only spot he ever could call home.
His hear. beats more and more quickly as
the mountains around the village rose in
the blue distance; then as he saw the
spire of the village church. or the we'll re-
membered trees grown old but still green;
and then, as he entered the cheerful street
many a dwelling was familiar though
touched by time but, among the groups
about their threshold, and those who met
him on the ak, there was not face tina!
he knew, or that knew him. He passed
on through the abodes of the living TO the
resting place of the dead, and there he
! found craven on stones, many names that
| were written on his soul. All whom he
had hoped to meet again were gone, or
buried or had forgotten him. lie was alone
stranger in his early home. He paused
to look around HIM. There stood r',e vess~
cradle edifce within which his young
mind had been trained to learning. There
was the green where he had leaped and
shouted with his fellows. There flowed
the little stream from the shaded spring
which had so often shaked his summer
thirst. He followed to i. the path deep
beaten in the soil. He stopped and took
one long cold draught his tears fell on the
calm waters face, he lifted his hat from
his head, brea,hed a prayer, and departed
to return no more.
" itn some such emotions does our
orator address you now a score Of years
had passed since he left, for the urgencies
of mature life, those academic shades dear
from thousand memories Of happy youth.
They were then populous with his friends
and their classic exercitalions were direct
ed by the kind and maternal s6licitnde of
teachers to whose fidelity, gratitude can
make sufficient payment, lie has trod-
den the college halls again to-day, and has
seen within them many happy faces in the
bloom of youth, bu, those whom he once
loved to greet with frank regard, are all
gone. Some are in the grave, the res,
widely scattered through cold world,
never 10 know again the buoyant happi-
ness and careless wealth Of affection that
here blessed them and him. But ,hanHs
be to God the fountain of truth at which
they drank, still pours forth its living wa
tiers; the path TO j. is still deep-beaten by
youthful feet, and have come TO take one
draught Of i. with you; TO send up prayer
to the Father Of lights; who causes it &c
flow anc go my way y

LIFE.

Loves song, and Lies tie singer;
Hope sits listening to the strain,
Til old Time, that discord-bringer,
Jars the music of the twain.
Love, and Life, and Time, together
Rarely yet were friendly found;
If Love heralJs sunny weather,
Time to other duties bound,
Buries Life half under ground:
o! the lot of Life, how sad!
Why should Time thus fail.to cherish
All that lends existence worth
Wherefore should love droop and perish,
As but doom'd to woe on earth!
Love, and Life, and Time, together
Better friends we hope may be;
If ines Of inc onstant feather,
Love and Hope should still agree:
Life is lost between the three.
O! the lot of Life, how sad!

TANNING THE FLAME OF HOPE.

We yesterday noticed and contradcted the as
sertion of the Madisonian that the Treaty OF An
nexation would be confirmed. This assertion is
made for the purpose of tanning the flame OF
hope, and encouraging the spectators and those
interested in Texan lands and bonds to persevere
in their efforts to manufacture public opinion in
favor of the treaty, and keep up as much excite
ment as possible. What credit the assertion is
entitled to, may be judged from the fact that the
Government of Texas was assured by the Tyler
administration, that constitutional majority of
the Senate were in favor Of annexation, when
