Their fragrance when it leaves the air,
Will centre in my heart
Twill breathe on every feeling there,
Like zephyrs from above,
Upon lone aud silent Tyre,
Turning its chords to love.
Though my sweet flowers are fading,

To me they have not lost charm,
Nor ever, ever will

Be ever streWed with flowers,
Blooming in colors bright and fair,
And cheered by sun and showers
Now must say farewell to thee,
We've only met to part,
But thine image bright in glowing line,
Is traced upon my heart.

EXTRAORDINARY SNAKE Story. The Phil
adelphia Inquirer says that the residents of
Kaighn's Point have quite an alarming story,
in relation to a terrible snake, which is said to
have been seen by some of the lovers of the
wild and the wonderful.
The statement is, that about half a mile
from kaigns Point, there is a swamp in the
middle of wood-that over a small stream in
this swamp, a passage is made by old fence
rails; and that an individual IN iourneying
through it at leisure few days since was ter
rified, by the appearance ofan immense snake,
the head of which was resting, as if in rumina-
ton, upon one of the IaIls-said head being
described to be 'as big as a water bucket" A
shrek Of horror-and the terror-stricken spec
tator made his escape into the high road, and
soon communicated tidings Of the proximity OF
the monster. Another man, who was picking
green huckelberres, is reported TO have seen
the tail of his snakeship, and he described it to
have been as long as two fence rails-while at
the same time, seeing huge head move at a
short distance-he instantly dropped his basket
of fruit and fled in alarm. A boy is said to
have been i'll for day or two, i'll consequence
of similar irght-while fourth is reported
to have declared the reptile was partially COW
cred with scales. But dozens Histories equally
probable are told. There is possibly something
in the swamp of the snake kind, and probably
of larger description than ordinary--but, the
water-bucket head and fence-rail tail are OF
course exaggerations, and attributable to a
vivid Imagination.

THE RECRUITS AT FoRT LEAvEEw ORTIZ
There will be some labor, mingled with amuse-
ment, for the United States officers at Fort
Leavenworth, in breaking the new recruits
from the interior of our State into subiec ton
to military rules and etiquette. 1t is certain
that some of the boys there now have very lit
tie idea of any such thing as Difference for or
awe of a commander.
A gentleman Just down from the Fort in
forms US that while there boat came to the
landing, on which Colonel Kearney walked to
see if any dispatches had arrived for him; and,
as he passed the sentry at the landing, he Or
dered him to prevent the recruits from coming
on board. He had only reached the boiler
deck, however, when down walked ten of the
boys, whom the sentry ordered back; but,
thrusting him aside, on board they marched,
and one, tall six foot Missourian, walked up
to Col. kearney, and, sappng him familiarity
OH the shoulder, says:
"You don't git off frum us, old boss! for, by
lngin corn, we'll go plum through fire and
thunder with you! What'll you drink, Cen
eral? Don't be BACKYARD; sing out"
The Colonel tried to look grave at this ia
miIlarty, but it was done by those who were
SO evidently unconscious of any breach Of eti
quotte that he was forced to laugh, and humor-
ed them by taking glass of lOine with them
at the bar; the tall boy telling him at the same
time that his drink ''war'nt with shucks, and
only fit fur wimen."
"Why in the thunder" cried another, "don't
you 90 the corn juice, General? It's the only
stuff for military fellar to travel on"
One Of the volunteer captains, while drilling
his men, was addressing them as ''gentLemen"

For minute and more the girl made no
reply, but sat as if in deep thought, with
her eyes cast upon the floor, while her bo-
som heaved and the color went and came
on her cheeks as if she was agitated by
some powerful emotion; and when she a
gain raised her eyes, the tears trembled on
their heavy lashes, and her voice quivered
with ill-concealed alarm as she attempted to
divert him from his purpose.
81 know not why it is," said she, "but |
have conviction, If you persist in this
pursuit after the phantom Fame, we shall

blank life would be; my heart would be
like desert, without tree or flower or
aught to cheer its solitude"
SDo not, Mary, give way to such
gloomy forebodings; a kind providence
will watch and preserve me, and when
the flowers have twice bloomed and died,
| will come again, and consumation Of
all my blissful dreams will constitute our
happiness"
And he drew her gently towards him,
and soothed her agitations with such words
as lovers only use. Long they conversed
in low, soft, and often whispered-tones un-
til the night had far advanced, and the stars
one by one glimmered through the trees

Henry pointed, and called Mary's atten-
ton, "See, yonder is your star just rising
over the hill and there is mine too, little
to the right. Let us look at them at this hour
when absent, and think so long as we can
see them, we are still unharmed. Shall il
be so? The aflectionate girl answered with
a look, but it was eloquent. He drew her
closer to his bosom--her head rested upon
his shoulder-and in the holiness Of their
love the first kiss was given and received
and with lingering grasp Of her hand,-

THE YOUNG OFFICER.
A TALE FOUNDED ON FACT.
BY A BUCKEYE.

The Hooking, or to give it the full and
proper Indian name, Hockhocking, is one
Of the most beautiful streams in the State
Of Ohio; and the scenery along its borders
and on the surrounding hills is of that pic
turesque and classic nature rarely TO be met
with in the interior.
In early days the Indian rowed thelight
pirogue on its bosom, while his terror-stri-
king war-whoop awakened the echo of the
adjacent forest. Could trees speak they
would tell of innumerable murders COM
mitted on its banks, and Of the sufferings
of those who were doomed to separation
from friends and the endearments of home,
by the merciless savages that prowled, like
beasts Of prey, around the homes of the
early pioneers, seeking opportunities to
reak their malice on the supposed enemies.
But such scenes have passed away, and
oppression no more is witnessed within its
peaceful wales.
The Indians have retired to the far-west;
the forests have disappeared before tha in
dustry Of the inhabitants: the arts and SCI
ences have asserted their creative powers
over the land; and the Hooking Valley
now presents scene of unparalleled magni-
ficence and grandeur. Where once stood
the howell of a scatter, splendid mansion
adorns the scene; where the war dance Of
savage-life was one held, house dedicated
to the services Of the living God now rears
its spire TO Heaven, the home of those
brave spirits whose blood sanctifed the
soil on which it stands; and the primeval
luxuriance of the forest is supplanted by
golden wheat and waving corn. In COM
mon with our own happy country it forms
part Of the grandest phenomena to which
the gaze Of an astonished world was ever
attracted, consummation of all that poetry
ever dreamed or Philosophy desired-a re-
public Of freemen advancing to the goal of
human happiness, beneath the broad shield
of Constitution that smiles alike upon the
poor and rich, the humble and the power
ful, the peasant and the nabob; knowing no

PARTING OF THE WIDOWS SON.
BY MRS. L. H. slGoURNRY.

BY MRS. L. H. slGoURNEY.
Yon slender boy his bark hath launched
On life's deceitful tide;
His balmy years of childhood o'er,
He goes without guide
Amid the stir and strife of men
His devious course 10 run,
The tempter and the snare to bide--
God bless the widows son.
He turneth from the pleasant door.
And from the garden fair,
Where with his little spade he wrought
Beneath mothers,
He bears his head like manhood high,
n Yet tears their course will run,
When on his stranger-bed he rests
God bless the widows son.
Ye say he goeth forth alone
To dare the eventful field
No! no, a spell is round him thrown,
More firm than diamond shield
A mournful mothers fervent prayer!

THE DYING GIRL TO HER SISTER

The dreamis past!--Pm dying now,
There is dampness on my brow;
The pang is o'er without sigh
III pass away and sweetly die
But oh, that pang cost many tear
Twas hard to yield up friends so dear;
But that is passed-Pll weep no more,
With me the dream of life is o'er.
And now, sweet sister, nearer come,
and tell me of that happy home;
Shall its pearly gates behold.
In streets all paved with FURNISHED gold?
And i'll that cline so strangely fair,
Say, shall feel a stranger there2
Or will their harp-strings sweetly blend,
To welcome me, child and friend
But softly, sister, softly speak,
And say--these tears upon thy cheek
Weep not for me--oh, do not pain!
| would not wake to earth again.
Thy hand--so often caped Of old
Thy soft warm hand, for mine grows cold,
And now dear sister. let me rest
My wearied head upon thy breast,
And fold thy arms about my form,
1t shivers meath deaths dark cold storm.
But sing me, sister, e'er 60,
Our song-our childhood's song you know
And let its gentle numbers flow,
AS last you sung, soft, sweet and low
And when its last faint echoes die,
And the bright tears steal from thine eve
| shall not heed them as they stray,
| shall be gone-far, far away.
