MY sCHOOL-BOY DAYS.
BY GENIUS.
IT'S cherry to a old mans heart,
To see the school-boy play,
And hear his little pratting voice.
Make glad the summers day.
No cruel thorns in the path,
OF boyhood's happy hour,
He gambols DER the laughing plain.
And plucks the fairest flower.
His life is pleasant dream,
So innocent, gay,
l oft delight to his pranks,
Make glad the summer day.
That smile in youth l once possessed,
Till age came DER my brow,
And though my babbIing days fled,
I'd court their pleasures
The auburn ringlets and this form,
I cannot now renew;
Old time hath turn'd them almost grey,
And changed their youthful hue
But still have a cheerful hope,
That harvest will come,
then will see the happy days;
I'm nearer to my home.
But true, il is a lovely sight,
To the school-boy play,
And hear his little merry voice,
Make glad the summers day.

LINES.
How oft wander near the spot,
And stand around the grave Of one,
Whose form will never be forgot,
Though shc's gone, forever gone.
How oft in childhood have strayed
To watch the gurgIing little stream,
Upon whose banks often played;
And loved to ponder life dream
Of happiness. but oh how vain
Were all our childish hopes of bliss,
For should we hope TO gain
That pearl in such a world this9
Oh no, for since, we've found that all
Our hopes have vanished like "a dream,
Or withercd like the leaves in fall,
And left though they neer had been.
Few months have passed since she whose smile,
Around little cheerful hearth,
Would oft tedious hours beguiIe
With laughing jest, songs Of mirth.
But now she s gone, the silent grave
Holds her from rudely riven
BY deaths cold hand, yet still l have
hope of meeting her in heaven.

We Growing Old.
FRANCES BROWNE.
We growing old-how the thought will rise
When a glance is backward cast
On some long remembered spot that lies
In the silence of the past;
1t may be the shrine Of early vows,
Or the tomb Of early tears:
But it seems like a far off isle to us,
In the stormy sea of years.
Oh, wide and wild the wave that part
Our steps from its greenness now,
And miss the joy of many heart:
And the light Of many a brow:
For deep DER many stately bark.
Have the whelming pillows rolled,
That steered with us from that early mark
Oh friends we are growing old.
Old in the dimness and the dust
OF daily tolls and cares,
Old in the wreck of love and trust
Which our burde ned memory bears
Each form may wear the passing gaze
The bloom Of freshness yet,
And beams may brighten our latter days.
Which the morning never met,
But oh, the changes. we have seen,
In the far and winding way:
The graves in our path that have grown green,
And the locks that have grown gray!
The winters still may spare
The sable the gold;
But we saw their upon brighter hair
And, friends, growing old.
We have gained the worlds cold wisdom now,
We have learned to pause and fear;
But where the living founts whose flow
Was JOY TO hear!
We have won the wealth Of many a cline,
And the lore of many page;
But where is the hope that in time
But its boundless heritagel
Will it come again when the violet wakes,
And the woods their youth renew!
We have stood in the light of sunny brakes
Where the bloom is deep and blue;
And our souls might Joy in the spring time then,
But the JOY was TIT and cold,
But it nc'er could give us the youth again
OF hearts that are growing old.

PROSPECTUS OF THE NEXT Cor 17th) VOL.
TINE price of The DEMOCRATIC REVIEW has here
u toiore been too high-not for its size, cost, and
character, but for the means of tens of thousands
of readers who would be glad to receive it, and
among whom it is highly desirable that it should
circulate For the purpose therefore, of largely
widening the range OF its usefulness, and of multi
plying the numbers of those to whom it NAV he ac-
cessible it has been determined, simult tan eously
with the great reduction in the expense of the post
age. to reduce its subscription price also, from Fire
to only Three dollars; and when several unite in
subscription to as low 81 so, or even So 30 per
annum.
This very large reduction in the receipts (accom-
panied with but IL comparatively small dimin ton
OF its cxpcnses) involves, of course, entire sac
riicc of profit upon il, unless compensated by n
vast multiplication of its subscribers. There will
he at the outset only small reduction in its mum
Der of pages to be restored to its old number
without increase of price, when the anticipated
success of the experiment shall justify it.

exert himself with active interest to procure it
subscribers both to extend its usefulness, and to
