THE AUTUMN OF LIFE.


The spring Of life is past
With its budding hopes and fears,
And the autumn time is coming
With its weight of weary years
Our joyousness is fading,
Our hearts are dinmed with care,
And youth s fresh dreams of gladness
All perish darkly there.
While bliss was blooming near us
In the hearts first burst of spring,
While many hopes could cheer us,
Life seemed a glorious thing.
Like the foam upon a river,
When the breeze goes ripping DER,
These hopes have fled forever
To come TO us no more!
IT'S sad--yet sweet--to listen
To the soft winds gently swell,
And think we hear the music
Our childhood knew so well
To gaze out ON the even,
And the boundless fields of air,
And feel again our boyhood's wish
To roam, like angels, there.
There are many dreams of gladness
That cling around the past,
And from the tomb of feeling
Old thoughts come thronging fast
The forms we loved so dearly
Il, ,ba bannp dave nou- roma
The beautiful and lovely,
So fair to look upon.
Those bright and gentle maidens
Who seemed so formed for bliss,
Too glorious and too heavenly
For such world as this;
Whose soft dark eyes seemed swimming
In a sea of liquid light,
And whose locks of gold were streaming
Der browsso sunny bright.
Whose smiles were like the sunshine
In the spring time of the year
Like the changeful CLEANS of April
They have passed-like hope-away
Oh many heart is mourning
That they are with the dead.
Like the brightest buds of summer
They have fallen from the stem
Yet oh it is a lovely death
To fade from earth like them.
And yet---the thought is saddening
To muse ON such as they,
And feel that all the beautiful
Are passing fast awayl
That the fair ones whom we love,
Like the tendrils of vine,
Grow closely to each loving heart,
Then perish on thy shrine
And can we but think of these
In the soft and gentle spring,
When the trees are waving DER us
And the flowers are blossoming
For we know that Winters coming
With his cold and stormy sky
And the glorious beauty round us
Is budding but to DIE!

Guessing their enand, the musician sat dowa to his harpsichord, and began to sing; he had no, proceeded through
 many bars before he so affected the heart of his creditor, thai instead of insisting upon his debi, he OFFERED him the loan of ano- thes and sn equal sum. To give fuil credit to this Orphean story, we must remember well inc creditor was an Aaliaa,
 A sensitive Floreniine, and an accom- plished scholar, as we'll as composer, singer, and inslrumenial performer, fascinated by ihS charms of lady whose rank rejected his VOWS, his eioquence, and his brilliant prospecis, fell into dreadful fever and deIirmm, during which he composed some lore Elexiss, aud set them to music.

Ny life Is Ike the summer rose

Ny life Is like the summer rose
 That opens to the morning sky, But ere the shades of evening close,
 Is seatter'd on the groand-to die. Yet on the roses humble bed ; The sweetest dews of night are shed, As if she wept the waste to sec :. But none sha1l weep tear for me! My life js like the autumn leaf
 Thsf trembles in the lnooa's pale ray, lts bold is frail--its date is brief,
 Hestiess- -and soon to pass awayl xet, ere that leaf shall fall and fade, The parent tree will mourn it's shade, The winds bewail the lesfess tree. Bat none shall breathe sigh for me. Ny life is like the prints, which feet
 Have isft on Tampa's desert strand; Soon as the rising tide shall beat,
 Ailtfaee viii vanish from the sand; Yet, as if grieving to ctace AA vestige of the human race, Ca that ione shore loud moans the sea, But none, alas. shall mourn for me
