LINES TO MARY.

The sunsets sweet and holy blush
Is simaged in the sleeping stream,
AL natures deep and solemn hush
Is like the silence of dream;
And peace seems brooding like dove
Ger scenes to musing spirits dear
Sweet Mary It's the hour love,
And Iwere blest if thou vert here!
The myriad flowers ofevery hue
Are sinking to their evening rest
Each with a ti1nid drop of dew
Soft folded to its sleeping breast
The birds within yon silent grove
Arc dreaming that the spring is near
Sweet Mary, tbs the hour of love,
And were blest if thou vert here!
Onyon white cloud the night wind furls
Its lone and dewy wing to sleep,
And the sweet stars look out like pearls
Thro' the clear waves ofheaven's blue deep
Thepale mists aoat around, above,
Like spirits of a holier sphere
Sweet Mary, it's the hour of love,
And were blest if thou vert here!
The pale, full moon in silent pride,
O'eryon dark wood is rising now,
AS lovely as when by thy side
saw it shining on thy brow;
1t lights the dew-drops of the grove
AS hopes bright smile lights beauty's tear;
Sweet Mary tis the hour Of lo;e
And were blest fthou vert hcrel
All! as muse, strange, Wild thrill
Steals DER the fbres ofmy frame
Agentle presence seems to fill
Ny heart with love and life and flame;
feel thy spirit round me move,
know thy soul is lowering near
Sweet Mary, It's the hour of love,
And am blcst for thou art here!

THE ENGLISH FACTORY GIRL.

TIE ENGLISH FACTORY GIRL.
Twas on wintry morning,
The weather wet and wild,
Three hours before the davning,
The father reused his child;
Her daily morscl bringing,
The darksome room he placed,
And cried, "the bell is ringing,
May hapless darling, haste!"
"Father, I'm up, but weary;
] scarce can reach the door,
And long the way and dreary,
- o carry me once more!
To help us, we've no mother,
You've no employment nigh;
They killed my little brother
Like him, III work-and die"
Her wasted form seemed nothing,
The load was at his heart;
The sufferer he kept soothing
Till at the mill they part.
The oyerlooker met her,
AS tohcr frame she crcpt,
And with his throng he beat her,
And cursed her as she wept.
Alas! what hours of sorrow
Made up her latest day;
Those hours that brought no morrow,
Too slowly passed away;
1t seemed as she grew weaker,
The threads the oftner broke,
The rapid wheels ran quicker,
And heavier fell the stroke.
The sun had long descended,
But night brought no repose;
Hr: DAY be-, an and ended,
AS cruel yrants chose.
AT length 20 little neighbor,
Il ha!fpenny she paid,
To take her last hours labor,
While by her frame she laid
At last. the engine ccasing,
The captives homeward rushed;
She thought her strength increasing
Twas hope her spirit fiush'd.
She left, but oft she tarried;
She fell and rose no more,
Till, by her comrades carried,
They reach'd her fathers door.
Atnight, with torturd feeling,
He watch'd his sleepess child,
And close beside her kneeling
She knew him not, nor smiled.
Again the factory's ringing,
Her last percetion cried;
When from her straw bed sprngine,
"Tis time" she shrirk'd, and died!
That night chariot pass'd her,
While on the ground she lay;
The daughters other master
An evening visit pay;
Their tender hearts were sighng
As negro's wrongs were told;
While the white slave was dying
Who gain'd their fathers goldl
