best answers the end for which it was crea-

The Deserted Homestead.

There is n lonely homestead, tail
In a green and quiet vale,
With its tai! trees signing mournfully
To every passing gale.
There are many ruins round it
In the sunlight cleaning fair,
But moss-grown is that silver cot,
Its walls are gray and bare.
Where once glad voices sounded,
OF children in their mirth,
No whisper breaks the solitude
OF that deserted hearth. .
The swallow from its dwelling
To the low caves hath flown,
And all night the whip-poor-will
Sings by the threshold stone.
No hand above the lattice,
Ties up the trailing vines,
And through the broken easement panes
The moon at midnight shines;
And many a solemn shadow
Seems starting from the gloon,
Like forms of long departed ones,
Peopliug that dim old room.
o! where are they whose voices
Rang out DER hill and dalel
Gone! and their mournful memories
Seem but an Oft told tale.
Some to the quiet churchyard,
And some beyond the sea,
Do.meet no more as once they met
Beneath the old roof tree.
Fame and ambition lured them
From that green vale TO rsam,
But as their dazzling dreams depart,
Regretful memories come,
or the valley and the homestead,
OF their child rem pure and fee,
Till each worn weary spirit yearns
That home once more to see. .
o! blest are they who linger
Mid old familiar things,
Where every object round the heart
lts hallowed influence brings.
