"I saw her but a moment, vet
Me thinks l see her now,
So bright was that expression
So fair that angel brow!
Her wary curls were floating down,
In lovelincss and light
And every look was eloquent,
And beautiful and bright.
Twas but an instant that l gazcd,
Enraptured on that face,
But yet, eternity would fail
Its image to erase.
gricve not that l saw her,
Though her smiles are not for me /;
Though her heart may be amothcr's-
In dreams twill beat for me.
Oh! that life's barque forever,
In one umacaking dream,
Could bear us two together,
Adown Times crystal stream.
II saw her but moment, yet
Me thinks see her now,"
So bright was that expression
So fair that angel brow!

THINK.-Thought engenders
thought. Place one idea upon pa
per, another will follow it, and still
another until you have written a
page. You cannot fathom your
mind. There is a we'll of thoughts
which has no bottom. The more
you draw from it, the more clear
and fruitful it will be. Ifyou neg
Iect to think yourself, and use 9TH

utterance only, you will never

At first, your ideas come out in
Jumps, homely and shapeless, but
no matter, time and perseverance
will arrange and polish them.
Learn to think, and you will soon

PULPIT ELooUENCE.-In the pull
pit, eloquence is seen, not in the
glare of ornament, but in the holy

exposition OF Providence, damping
the hardened brow of guilt, and
exhorting from the heart a testi-
mony of it's. own corruptions -
What subject can be capable of a
more sublime OBJECT, than the reli-
gion which breaches liberty to the

pity. and bringing the gush of fsym-
pathy from the unfeeling heart,
