The Spirit Waltz.
BY C. c. van ZANDT.

The following lines were suggested by
Beethoyen's beautiful melody bearing the
same appellalion.
Hark Hark the village bell,
Tolls the midnight hour WELL
Far aloft the moon is keeping
Watch DER Natures quiet sleeping,
Changing irto silvery sheen
The gauze-lke mist that glides betwecn--
AS doth sun CLEAN pierce the vail
OF murky clouds and tint each sail
On the dark aud storm-moycd river,
With shafts from II s golden quScr,
Whilst light and shade together meet
And sport upon it's mottled sheet.
The ripples all are crested bright,
That dance upon the brook tonight,
Breaking along lis mossy shore
To miInmic oceans tulnbIlng roar
But more they sound like fairy bell,
Or sca-nymph urmurlng from her shell.
The dropping willows meet above,
And bend To kiss their early love,
Who welcomes them with glad embrace,
Bright foam wreaths gllst nng OH her Face
And little cddies curling near,
Like children round a parent dear.
Stiffness, silence, regns around,
Broke but by the streancts sound,
Sure, It's hour fiji and fan,
For the spirits Ol the ar.
10 they come each silrlt's ray,
Gnids them on their earihward way,
Music breaks upon the ear,
Distant now, anon It's near,
Free from demon weird assaults,
lleayn harps breathe the Spirit Waltz
" hist with footsteps sad aud SLOW,
In its measures 10 aud iro,
Ghost-lke. silently they 90
Father, Mother, are together
Moving o'cr the moon-llt heather.
Old men, with their locks of gray,
Floating like the CLEANS of day,
Maid and lover meet once more,
All but It's not as before
Those in life SO true ne or false,
Slowly tread the Spirit W altz.
Little children robed in white,
Crowned with dew and moonbeams light,
Sparkling like the sea-washed pcarls,
Sleeping 'mong their golden curls,
Dance together hand in hand,
Chcrubs from the better land.
Naught is heard of mlrh OF glee,
Save the music silently
PealiDg from an Angel choir
As the incense from lhe FIRE,
Ger the senses casts a spell,
BY its hidden pow r right well
80 upon the ear II fell,
Soothing, calming each emotion,
As the summer does the ocean.
Twas a sad ming thing to stand,
Gazing on thai Spirit band
Like q glimpse of worlds elysan,
Or the painting of vision
Phantom like they moved I'LL day,
Bushed 4 horizon with II S ray,
Then the music pauses, hllts,
Finished is the SPIRIT WALTZ.

GEMS OF POESY.
The Terrible Legend OF the Kit
kenny Cats.

OFlynn she was an Irishman, as very well
was known,
And she lived down by Kilkenny, and she
lived there all alone,
With only six great large tom-cats, as knew
their ways about,
And every body else besides, she scrup'lously
shut out.
o very fond o. cats was she, land whiskey
too, 'tis said,)
She didn't feed 'em very much, but she
comb'd 'em well instead;
AS may be guess'd these large tom cats, they
didn't get very sleek,
Upon combng once day, and ''h'porih''
once week
Now on dreary winters night O'Flyn she
went to bed,
The whiskey bottle under her arm, tihe whis-
key in her hcad,)
The six great large tom-cats, they sat all in a
dismal row,
And horrible glared their hungry eyes, their
tails wagg'd to and fro.
AT last one grim Grimalkm spoke, in accents
dire TO tell,
And dreadful were the words which in his
awful whisper fell
When all the other five tom-cats in answer
loud did squall,
aLet's kill her-let's eat her-body and bones
and ALL"
Oh horrible! Oh terrible Oh deadly tale
to tell!
When the sun shone in the window hole all
there seemed still and well;
The cats they sat and licked their paws, all
in merry ring,
But nothing else within that place, looked
like living thing.
Anon they quarreId savagely, and spit and
swore and holler'd,
Till at last these six great large tom-cats,
they one another swallowed;
And naueht but one long tail was left in that
once peaceful dwelling,
And very tough one too it was-it's the
same as I've been telling.

They're slarctla rent, then, onward they shoot,
And are neither ''to h,i to bind''
So freely they in their chosen cllirse,
The "Lcrjs Of Creation d, fear an eclipse
They've taken noti N to speak fer themselves
And are welding the tongue and the pen
They've mounted the rrstrum, the ternagent elves,
And oh h rrid tilking to men.
With faces unblincled in our presence they come
To laraneuc us, they say, in behalf of the dumb.
They inss IN their right + petition and pray,
That st. Paul, in Corinthians has given them rules
For appearing in public despite what those say
Whom we've trained tn instruct them in orthodox
schools.
But vain such instruct N, ii women may
And quote texts of Scripture to favor their plan.
Our graniinothers learning consisted of yore
In spreading their generous boards;
In twisting the dis,nH piping the aoor.
And ubeying the will of tleir Lords.

We'd teach these usurpers Of power,
That their bodily safety demands they should yield,
And in presence Of mnnhpod should COVER

A PREvENTIvE OF THE Fly IN WHEAT
The Pennsylvania Cultivator, the new pub
lication noticed in the American few days
ago, publishes communication FROM Jonah
Oglesby, of Dauphin county, stating that the
best, indeed the only preventive against the
Hessian fly, is to destroy by fire the wheat,
oat and rye s,ubble, He affirms that he
never had fly in any wheat which was
sown in field which had been just before
fred over.
