Come. rouse thee, dearest! 'tis not wen
To let thy spirit brood
Thus darkly DER the cares that SVEN
Lies current to flood;
As brooks and torrents, rivers all,
Increase the gulf in which they fan,
Such thoughts, by gath'rin up the rllls
OF lesser grief, spread real ills;
And, with gloomy shades, conceal
The landmarks hope would still reveal.
Come. rouse thee, now! know thy mind,
And would its strength awaken;
Proud. gifted, noble, ardent, kind
Strange thou should be thus shaken;
But rouse afresh each energy,
And be what heaven intended thee;
Throw from thy thoughts this weary weight,
And prove thy spirit firmly great;
/ would not see thee bend below
The angry storms Of earthly wo.
Full well know thy generous soul,
Which warns thee into life;
Each spring which can its powers control,
Familiar to thy wife;
For deem'st thou she could stoop TO bind
Her fate unto a common mind?
The eagle-ike ambition, nursed
From childhood in her heart, had first
Consumed with its Promethean flame
The shrine that sunk her so to shame.
Then rouse thee, dearest, from the dream
That letters now thy powers!
Shake off this gloom! Hope sheds a beam,
To gid each cloud that lowers;
And though, at present, seems so far
The wished-for goal, the guiding-star
With peaceful ray would light thee on,
Until its utmost bound be won,-
That quenchless ray, thou'lt ever prove,
A fond, undying aoedded lore.

IIenvY Damages.

The jury in the case Of Eliza Miller rs.
the Newark Gas Light Company, which has
occupied the Circuit Court in this city some
days, brought IN verdict yesterday after
tcrnoon Of 4 800 damages. The case IL
briefly this: The plaintiff, a young lady Of
twenty-five years, from Sussex county, came
70 this city on the 23d December last to learn
trade, and early IN the evening Of that day,
while walking up Broad street with sister,
fell into an opcn trench made on the south
west corner Of Broad and Market streets,
for laying the pipes of the deicndanis-the
pathway across Market street being made
too narrow for two persons 10 walk abreast
lii being dark evening and no lights nj the
passage. The sister, being Immediately in
the rear. screamed which brought geutIe-
man passing 10 her aid. Miss Nj. was inn
nediatcly taken out of the trench, her head
being under, and carried 10 the office Of Doe
tors Darcy & Nichols, in a scnseess condi-
ton. II was found on examination that the
part OF the forehead Immediately over the
right ey was laid open to the bone The
wound being dressed, she was taken TO her
lodgings, where she continued under medi-
cal treatment some days, being portion Of
the tune IN perilous state. 1t was further
held that her eye is still not perfectly re-
stored. Such is briefly the case made ON
the part of the plaintiff.
The defendants held that they had suffi-
cientIy guarded the ditch, and that the aeci-
dent was owing TO the carelessness of the
girl, who was said to be looking around ut
the moment, and not fully attentive to her
footing, aud that, Notwithstanding no light
had been put up al the place. The case
was committed TO the jury after a brief
charge from the Chief Justine, and the YER
die; was returned in the course of an hour
and half--Negark .4dr., Sept. IL.
