MY BIRD.
BY FANNY FORESTER.

Ere last years moon had left the sky,
A birdling sought my Indian nest,
And folded, oh! SO lovingly!
Her tiny wings upon my breast.
From morn till evenings purple tinge,
In winsome helplessness she lies;
Two rose leaves, with a sllkeh fringe,
Shut softly on her starry eyes.
There's not in Ind loveller bird;
Broad earth owns not a happier nest;
o God, thou hast fountain stirred,
Whose waters never more shall rest!
This beautiful, mysterious thing,
This seeming visitant from Heaven,
This bird with the immortal wing,
To me-to me, thy hand mas given.
The pulse first caught its tiny stroke,
The blood its crimson hue, from mine:-
This life, which have dared invoke,
Henceforth is parallel with thine.
A silent awe is IN my room
tremble with delicious fear:
The future, with its light and gloom,
Time and Eternity are here.
Doubts-hopes, in eager tumult rise;
Hear, o my God; one earnest prayer:-
Room for my bird in Paradise,
And give her angel plumage there!
Happy is the man whose wife is Fanny, il
this hot weather.

From the Quaker City.
The Woods in Spring,
by EDWARD POLLOCK.

Underneath the pointed arches
Ofthe old woods darkest alsles,
Where tiro' oaks and hoary larches
Fitfully the blue sky smiles,
Lies calm and twilight valley
Deep, two rugged hills between,
Where, in troops the loose winds daily
In the forest dark and green,
In the dim and silent torreut,-
In the forest dark and green.
Family, In the faint light cleaning,
Streams traverse those shadows deep,
Murmuring, as an infant dreaming
Smiles and murmurs in its sleep,
Fltiully each infant river
Cleans beneath its sedgy screen,
And above the light winds quiver
Thro' the leaves so dark and green,
In the dim and silent foresr,-
In the forest dark and green.
There in calm and deep recesses
Grows the golden prlmrose fair,
And the violet coy caresses
Every wandering breath of air,
There in brooks retlr d and SILLY
Buds and blooms the rose unseen,
Aud BY bubbllng sprineT, the lily
Towers above the verdure green,
In the din and silent forest,--
In the fosest dark and green.
There the daring king.hrd dashes
Thro' The boughs in ceaseless was,
And the bright winged Oriele flashes
Midst the branches like star,
There at dusk the owl looks lonely
From the trailing ivy screen,
And the night hawks soft wing only
Stirs the leaves so dark and green,
In the dim and silent Forest
In the forest dark and green.
While with needless steps wander
Thro' those scenes OF silent joy,
Idly do dream and ponder
C'er the page of days gone by,
And the light of joys departed
Gilds the half forgotten scene,
WI ere the loved, the young, true-hearte
Trod with me the messy green.
In the dim and silent Forest
In the forest dark and green.
Sometimes too the whisper'd d voices
OF the absent and the dead,
Haunt me, while the breeze rejoices
Md the green boughs over head,
And while needless tears are falling
On the mossy bank lean,
Back the youthful hours recal Hing
That spen, it forest green,
In tie dim and silent Forest
In the forest dark and green.
