With priceless Treasure there.
Could have soul like thine,
On lfe's pathway by my side
Never would my heart Iepine,
For more angelic guide.

In the ciIciss where we move,
But in long, long years we fnd,
Few, how very FEW 10 love.

Where no sparkling drop Of dew,
Where no cheering sunbeam shane.

Whose warm spirits dwell with mins,
In loves IadivnI Eden land.

IT'S not long since 6ISt we met,
And we only met TO piri,
But no measured time is set.
For the offerings of the heart.
Quick as thought. look. sigh,
Or whispei kind and true,
Binds the spirit with tie,
That long years may not undo.
Fancy brings thee TO me now,

With thy pu,e transparent brow.

But, alas when assay,
To embrace the vision fair,
Silently il fades away,
And clap the empty air
Clasp the empty air and hear,

Memory whispering. soft and clear,
That our humes are FAR apart.

In Richmond, Virginia, before the Historical Society
of the State, which he undertook TO account for
the difference between the people of Virginia aud
New England. He said that n school of Melaphy sics
had been transplanted from Oxford to Williamsburg
while school of Physics carried 10 Boston from
Cambridge. He asserted that Virginia still deal

pushing ahead with Cambridge facts. He thought
that Virginia has very little to boast, that her
present history is remarkable for its barrenDess, aud
that there exists necessity why its condition should
be advanced.
