By ELIZA COOK.
There's a love that only lives
While the cheek is fresh and red,
There's love that only thriyes
Where the pleasure feast is spread
Il burneth sweet and strong.
Aud il sings merry theme,
Bur the incense and The song
Pass Ike flies upon the stream.
II come,h with the ray.
And il goeth with the cloud,
And quite forgeIs toe day
What yesterday il vowed,
Oh. Love Love Love-
l. an easy chain to wear
When many idols meet our faith,
And all we serve are fair.
But there's love that keeps
A constant waich.fire light,
With Game that never sleeps
Through the longest winter night
1t is not always wise,
And it is not always blest,
For il bringeth fearful eyes,
And loads signing breast.
A fairer lot hath he,
Who loves awhile, then goes
Like the linnet from the tree,
Or the wild bee from the rose.
Oh, Love! Love Love-
Soon makes the hair turn grey,
When only one Ellis all the heart,
And that ones far awny.

Determined to expose this misrepresen-

Grave Yard Of the old Presbyterian
Church, in which lie the remains of Gen.
Daniel Morgan, whose name aud deeds
adorn the pages Of revolutionary history
with a brilliancy, surpassed only by that
of the illustrious Washington.
We found under the branches OF an
aged and healthy Locust Tree, a plan
