BEAUTY.-The following pretty pas
sage, we clip from an exchange: 'jj'
There is something in beauty, ,wheth.
er it dwells in the human face, in the
pencilled leaves Of flowers, the spark
ling surface of a fountain, or that as
pect which genius breaths overits stat
ne, thet makes US mourn its ruin. q /
should not envy that man his feelings,
who could see a leaf wither, or flower
fall without some sentiment or regret
and frailty of things around us, is only
slight tribute of becoming grief and
affection; for nature in our adversities,
never deserts US. She even comes
more nearly to US in our sorrows, and,
leading us away from the path Of dis
appointment and pam, into her sooth-
ing recesses. allays the anguish of our
bleeding hearts, binds up the wounds
that have been inflicted, whispers the
meek pledges of better hope, and in
with aspirit of still hoiier
birth, points to that home where decay
and death can never come. Jsaa saif ~
