[For the American Republican. !

The FIRST MEETING OF THE CONVENTION
OF LrcKUMs. According to previous notice,
the members of the Lafayette Lyceum, the Ir-
! wing Literary Association and the Senate, as
sembled at the hall of the Maryland Institute
last evening, to take into consideration the pro-
priety of establishing congress of lyceums.-
Mr. ?. K. Lovejoy, on motion, was called to
| the chair, and Mr.. Cronise to act as secretary.
On motion of Mr.. John w Medairy, it was
| agreed ito appoint a committee, consisting of
| one member from each society, to nominate
permanent officers for tie convention.
MIR. Ward, of the Irving Associations; Mr..
Travers, Of the Lafayette Lyceum, and MIR.
Medairy, of the Senate, composed the nomi-
mating committee.
The following gentlemen were then elected
officers for the evening:-Mr. P. R. Loveioy,
! President; Messrs. 'iravers and Marriott, Vice
Presidents; and Messrs. Cronise and Clotwor-
| thy, Secretaries,
committee vas then appointed to report
business for the convention. A series of reso-
lutions, setting forth the design of the contem-
plated institution, and calling convention of
delegates from all the lyceums and debating in
stitutions in the city, to meet at the same place
on Friday evening, the 18th of November, for
the purpose of organizing the Congress of Ly-
ceums, were reported and unanimously adopt
ed. These resolutions, with an address, are to
be published and sent to all the lyceums in the
city.
One important feature in these resolutions is
to create Prize fund, out Of which to award
premiums for excellence in composition, de-
bate, sc. The principal object of this congress
or parent society is, however, to give the Ly-
ceum system more elevated position, and to
! 4 e. tbo hot nal
| prosperity of all belonging to it.
| During the evening it was announced that
several members of the William Writ Lyceum
had arrived, since the commencement of the
meeting; whereupon il was unanimously re-
solved, that they be invited to take part in the
proceedings of the convention.
Previous TO the adoption of the resolutions,
speeches were made by Messrs. Loveioy, Ward,
Travers, Morris, Ball, kragel, Goodman, Me-
dairy, and others.
This, Messrs. Editors, was altogether an i'm
portant as well as highly interesting meeting
and will no doubt result in the complete sue
cess and organization of the congress of Ly.
coums. And who will say that such an Insti
tuition is not wanted Visit, if you please, the
various haunts of the young men of this city
and you will see hundreds wasting their timt
and means, who with proper moral restrain
and mental culture, might become ornament
to society and benefactors to the literary world
We say, then, make the Lyceum Hall as at
tractve as possible; and collect together tn
young uen that are thus throwing thenselve
away; brush off the rust from their neglecte,
though immortal minds, and excite spirit 0
emulation among them, and a new and glori
Gus era will dawn upon the minds and morals
of the rising generation.

fPor the American Republican,
TWILIGHT,-BY IBo T. HEYEy

The sober, pensivo twilight hour,
Comes h0v'ring DER the weary earth,
ENalting ev'ry holy power,
That guards meek meditation's birth.
Sweet voices fill the lambient air,
And grateful natures passing lair,
lnclincs nost joyously to bless
A scene of peace and loneliness.
Day sinks to rest! yon gorgeous dome
Of dazzling sapphire ssems to wave
Banners of truce, ere nightly gloom
Enshrouds its dreary, guard less grave.
Where noOntide brightness gaily SHINE,
still sunlight in its golden throne,
Ewes armies come in sad array
To watch the sepulchre ef day.
How soothing lookest thou, sweet eve.
Springing unseen from hidden ways;
To welcome thee gladly leave
A worldly haunt where rapinc strays.
Comnlunlngs most serenely bright,
Thy presence brings renewed to light,
And musing fancy scars away,
Forgettul of the ST orny day.
Hark! bark! eIulting voices come,
Whose music tones were mute at noon,
While man, the child of dread and gloom,
Denur'd his healtstrings TO attune.
Who stands aloof, Ia meet again
The twilight harper's mrthful strain.
Go, grovelling mortal! sigh not here,
And vocal be thy SOULS atmosphere.
Blu, an! some wretched wanderer pleads,
The ruthless mastery of despair;
From earth's dim page of grief he reads,
That changeful life cannot be fair.
Not fair! Return, return once more
To contemplaton's tranquil shore;
There bloom the lovely flowers of peace,
Bidding thy star-bome faith increase.
Ye, who have m ct the SUMS last smile,
Wreathing the brow of dying day
Cannot some pictured Joy beguile,
Your fitfal spectres of decay
4 thought of those that mourn in vain
Comes floating o Ter my fevet ID brain,
q, what world of sorrow lies
Twixt earth-born change and sunny skies.
HE thee to rest, lone twilight hour,
The days Responding mOurner weeps;
And fearful, brooding shadows lower,
Where times unguarded min0ns sleep.
Rest thee. the gorgeous troops of night,
Approach with waving banners bright,
And holy summers from on high,
Wake visions of eternity.

A TIME TO DIE-.4n Extract.
BY THEoPHILUs FISK.

Look at that smooth and bloodess brow, of
one Of earth's loveliest daughters, borne back to
her natal bowers from long pilgrimage, in
search of the lost treasure-health. Like a
pale perishing blossom, she is laid in all her
fading beauty, down in the home of her guile
less infancy, amidst the happy scenes to which
her memory fondly chung. The hopes that had
nestled in the heart of many faithful friend,
had one by one departed as they marked the
hectic spot upon the wan and paid cheek, the
thin attenuated fingers of the tiny hand, the
faltering step, the sunken eye-these told in
solemn language that the time was rapidly APP
preaching when they must prepare the coffin
/ and the shroud.
| A few short months only had passed, since
she stood before the altar, laughing, bushlng
bride, her slight and fragile form, surrounded
| by troops of admiring friends. Her name is
changed, she returns to her fathers house but
to leave it for land Of strangers. All! little
did they think, oil that day when tears and
smiles were minged-when they looked upon
that bright face with its beaning Joy and youth
full pride, that its glow was lighted with the fe-
vered breath of the treacherous dlsease-con-
sumption. Little did the fond father think
when he left tear of mingled Joy and sorrow
upon her cheek at parting, that she was so soon
to be borne back TO the house Of her youth in
! comfortless sorrow.
Death regards not a fathers love, nor hus-
bands grief-she is laid in her shrouded beauty
beneath the spreading cypress of her native
hills, in calm, unbroken, painless sleep. She
has seen the moonlight resting upon her native
vallies for the last time-the sun to her gilds
the hill-tops no more, The spirit emancipated
from the heavy shackles Of mortality, has join
ed the great congregation of the ransomed ones
in the paradise of love. Why weep we then as
those who have no hope that there her dark
ness is changed to day--that a sun has risen no
more to set-that the fetters of earth have been
exchanged for robes of light and lite-that the
dark portal of Death has been Enclosed, which
opens upon an endless day-that the music OF
another voice is added to that unceasng song
in world where pang and parting are known
no more!
Tears may fall when the beautiful and the
good arc called away; but there is unfading con-
ISOLATION in the darkest hour. The oraclcs OF
truth point the mourning soul to the land Of
perfect bliss, where the spirit never dies, and
pain never comes.
