Tn Loss or LirE ON ruE SHoRE or LoSc j.
IANp.-The lamentable loss Of lie which recently
occurred on the Long Island shore. in the wrecsng
sfthe ship Elizabeth, calls loudly for the adoption
Of some means to prevent the repetition Of such
dreadful calamity. The government placed life
boats along that coast but no provision was made
Tor hands or men to use them. The consequence
was, that they were useless the Inhabitants having
declined to encounter the risk Of launching them
aud attempting to rescue the unfortunate pas.sn-
s,ngcrs and crew Of that Inflated vessel. Motives
efhumani,y would undoubtedly have induced them
to do their beet to save them. but we suppose they
imagined the risk too great, and therefore declined
making any effort As for their neglecting to save
the cargoe. 81 vessels wrecked on that coast, we
do no, wonder at IT, From what we have heard,
they have not been treated in the mos, honorable
or praseworthy manner. We are informed, BY
persons residing on the shore, that they never
could prepayment Tor their services in rescuing
freight from wrecked vessels and hey gave us
an instance Of the manner in which ihey were
treated On a former occasion II was in the case
ofG.e Minerva, which was wrecked on tae same
coast about year ago. trunk, belonging to one
Of the passengers containing fourteen hundr Cd dob

and delivered to the owner. who not only refused
TO pay ihem for their trouble, but actually was so
deficient in good breeding as not even to thank
them great portion Of the cargo Of tina, YES

time in coming TO New York for their pay, waiting

THE BALLROOM BELLE.

BIT GEORGE II. NORRIS.
Tho moon and all her starry train
Wece fading from the morning sky,
When home the ballroom belle again
Returned with throbbing pulse and brain,
Flushed cheok and fearful eye.
The plume that danced above her brow,
The gem that spnrklcd in her zone,
The scarf ofspangled leaf and bough,
Were laid aside--they mock'd her now,
When desolate and lone.
That night how many hearts she wonl
The reigring belle, she could not stir,
But, like the planets round the sun,
Her suitors followed-all but one
One oil the world to her!
And she had lost himl-marveln not
That ladys eyes with tears were wetl
Though love by manis soon forgot,
Itnever yet was woman's lot
To love and to forget

And thou hast but slender sail
To spread before an adverse gale
When trials lash the waves to foam,
And thou art far from friend and home,
Yield not thy spirit to despair,
But manfully the pillows dare
High DER the waters, wild and cold,
Fix thou the steadf,steye and bold
Bearon, bear braysly onl
Bear onl The world may jeer and scoR,
And chosen friends may cast thee Off
Stay not to weep the brittle chain
One stormy wind could break in twain.
ifthou hast found that heart untrue
Which was thy hope, tey idol too.
Sink not in sorrows depths profound,
Despair will never heal the wound;
Give to the past no vain regret,
The future lies before thee yet.
Bear on, bear bravely onl
Bear on Dost thy rcpining eye
See worthless men axalted high,
While modest merit sinks forlorn
In cold neglect and cruel scorni
@, never from thy tempted heart
Let thine integrity depart;
When disappointment fills thy cup
Undaunted, nobly drink it up
Truth will prevail, and Jnstice show
Her tnrdy hanors, sure, but slow.
Bear Oh, bear bravely on
Bear onl Our life is not dream,
Though often such its mazes seem;
We were not born to lives ofease,
Ourselves alone to aid and please;
To each n daily task is given,
a labor which shall fit for heaven.
When duty calls, let love grow warm,
Amid the sunshine and the storm
With Faith, life's trials boldly breast
Aud come conquerer to thy rest.
