Though pride may show some nobleness
When honor's its ally,
etthere is such thing on earth
As holding heads too high.
Thesweetest bird builds near the ground
The loveliest flower springs low
Aad we must stoop for happiness,
Ii we its worth would know
Like water that encrusts the rose,
Still hardening to its core,
So pride encases human hearts
Until they feel no more.
Shut up within themselves they live,
And selfishly they end
A life. that never kindness did
To kindred, or to friend,
Whilst Virtue, Ike the dew of Heaven,
Upon the heart descends,
And draws its hidden sweetness ont
The more-as more it bends,
For there's strength in lowliness
Which nerves us to endure
A heroism in distress
Which readers victory sure,
The humblest being born is great,
Ii true to his degree
His virtue illustrates his fate,
Whatever that may be, s.ss
Then let us daily learn to iow
y simplicity and WORTH,
For no, the eagle, but thedovc.
Brought peace untotle earth

II l had thought thou couldst have died,
might not weep for thee;
But forgot, when BY thy side,
That thou couldst mortal be:
It never through my mind had past,
The time would ea%r be Ger,
And on thee should look my last
And thou shouhst smile no more,
And still upon that face / look,
And think twill smile again;
And still the thought will not brook,
That l must look in vain.
But when I speak-thou dost not say,
What thou ne'er left'st unsaid;
And now I feel, as well I may,
Sweet Mary. thou art dead.
If thou woudst stay, cen as thou art,
All cold and all serene
i still might press thy silent heart,
And where thy smiles have been.
While cen thy chill, bleak corse l have,
Thou seemest still mine own;
But there I lay thee IN thy grave
And am now alene.

THE WJ30W'S CURSE.

The house and grounds which my
uncle and amt at present occupy were
some year since in the possession Of q
very distsnt branch of the family, who,
according to popular tradition, were
obIiyeeto dispose Of it in consequence
of a ssries OF misfortunes entailed upon
then by q curse. The tale appeared to
iacso wild, so romantic, and so char
aeeristic of the country, that was
tempted to commit it to paper.
In one Of the most sequestered spots
of the county of Roscommon were to
be sean two or three cabins. One of
them rose superior to the others. It
was inhabited by the aged widow, Biddy
Mann, and her pretty granddaughter:
Biddy, to use the country phrase, had
.come Of dacent pecpie,n who had
been well to do in the void; but times
we're sadly changed. Biddy's life had
urcyed . heightened chain OF griefs
and wrongs which had reused all the
worst feelings Of hsr nature, and excited
all the warmest and best to enthusiasm,
and these were all bestowed on, her
onlv hone and comfort, her grandchild,
the gentle Kate. And who more wor-
thy Of this loyes She. was the only
survivor Of her family flour sons. Her
husband and two Of her sons fell victims
to The system Of false information prsc-H
tised against the peasantry OF unhappy
Ireland at the time Of the rebellion; the
other two iled to foreign countries, and

Not till then did she recover the power
Of utterance. With voice loud, wild,
shrill as the winds against which it
contended. she cried: "OHiggins. veil
sup sorrow for this. Ny curse, the
widows, and the orphans curse, be on
YEP
"Hold, good woman" said Bernard
interrupting her; do not utter wicked
curses. Here's money, which will pro-
cure you comforts and shelter"
"Keep your money! replied Biddy !;
"Pll not sell my blessing or my curse
On you, child, be my blessing, for you
have pitied me; may you never, never
stand in need of pity yerself, and never
know sorrow! May riches bless you
in strange land, and give you every
comfort in life; and may heaven be
your bed at last! But on the father of
ye, on all belonging to him save yerself,
may blight rest! May the riches he
has got cause his destruction! May
he be low as me and my darlint Kate
this highland that won't be long
Dead or alive, rll have revengew
The door was closed. The solemn
words of the imprecation had sounded
the more awful from the storm which
was raging. By the following day
that had subsided, and Nature again
appeared gay and cheerful; but gloom
hung over the house of Pallas. The
servants whispered their fears of the
old woman's curse; the very walls
seemed to repeat it. From that fearful
night the old woman was never heard
of there or at her own home.
Time passed on. O'Higgins seemed
to have acquired sudden wealth-made
purchases, appeared to be blessed, not
cursed; when. one fine moonlight sum-
mer night. which he was enjoying on
the lawn before his house, the calm
silence of the scene was broken by
sudden piercing cry; another and an
other followed, and then fearful laugh
of exultation. He ran towards the spot
whence the sounds proceeded, till he
came to the clear and rapid though
shallow stream at the end of the lawn.
Here he found two of his servants, who,
with loud lamentations, had Just lifted
some burden out of the water. "Oh,
masther!" !" they exclaimed, on seeing
him; 8 poor dear misther Harry! The
ould woman has fairly murdered him.
Sure, saw her myself strangle him in
the ford.n
The wretched father was horror
struck, on nearer approach, TO behold
his fayorite, his idolized son. corpse.
He had perished, and as all the peasant
~ firmly believed, by the supernatural
agency of Biddy Mann. This was the
beginning of OHiggins's misfortunes:
he became silcnt morose, litigious went
to law, In a short time lost all his pro-
perty, and was so reduced as to live in
a small cottage on his own grounds.
From the fultilment of the curse
pronounced on the father, the blessing
bestowed on young Bernard was conf
IDENTIFY expected to prove true. Seeing
the most gloomy prospects al home, he
collected his little property. determined
to try his fortune in foreign lands, went
to Spain, where success favored him,
and thence to South America. where
he acquired wealth and honors, and be-
came one of the most distinguished
republican leaders. under the name of
Don Bernardo O'Higgins. Thus were
alike fulfilled Biddy Mann's blessing
and. her curse.

WOMEN rs. LADIEs.-What blunder-

when they endeavor to elevate things
by giving them new or affected titles !
What vulgarity is equal to the thrice
sodden vulgarity of refinement We
think it was Dickens who complained
that there were no longer any boys in
all England-that the boys went ont
with George the Third" A similar
calamity has befallen us in America.
We have no longer any women, or, at
least, no acknowledged specimens of
that interesting portion of the human
race. The women have gone, extinct,
(according to the popular phrascology,l
and have been superseded by ''ladiesm
Alack-a-day for the change! We re-
gard woman as 9the noblest work of
God - but "a lady" at her highest pitch
of perfection is only the noblest work
Of q. French milliner. Just apply the
term, for example. as well to the high
est as the lowest grades of the gentler
sex, and the ludicrous absurdity of its
nse will make you chary of the world
forever after. A person wishing to see
the female wards in prison, was
answered by the jailer--" Sir we have
no ladies here at present" A clergy
