LIFE IN THE DESERT {:

LIFE IN THE DESERT:
OR, HOW PANTHER FELL IN LOVE WITH A
FRENCH SOLDIER.
During the enierprsing expedition into
upper Egypt, by General Desssix, provin-
cia soldier fell into the power of a tribe Of
Arabs, called Maugrabins and was thence
carried into the desert, beyond the cataract
OF the Nile. In order to place a safe dis
lance between themselves and the French
army, the Maugrabins made a forced march.
aud did not stop till night closed in. They
encamped around fountain surrounded by
palm trees. No, suppossing their prisoner
would attempt 10 escape, they contened
themselves with merely binding his hands :;
and after having fed their horses, and made
their supper upon dates they all of them
slept soundly. As soon as The French pri-
soner was convinced of this fact, he began
to gnaw the cords tina, bound him, and soon
he regained The liberty Of his hands He
| seized a carbine, and took the precaution to
provide himself with some dry dates and
little bag of grain, armed with scimetar,
started off, in the direction of the French
army.
10 his eagerness TO arrive at a place
of safety, he urged tina, already weary horse
until the generous animal fell down dead,
aud left his lider alone in the midst of the
desert. For long time the Frenchman
walked on with the perseverance Of a runa-
way slave. but was at last obliged to stop
The day was finished notwithstanding the
beauty and freshness of oriental nights, he
did not feel strength enough to pursue his
journey. Having reached little cluster of
palms. which had gladdened his heart at
distance, he laid his head upon a stone and
slept, without taking any precau.ion for his
defence.
He was awakened by the pitiless rays of
the sun, which fell upon him with in,oIer-
able fervor for in his WEAKNESS he had re-
posed on the side opposite to the morning
shadows OF the majestic palms. The pros
pect around him filled him with despair. In
every direction nothing met his eve but
wide ocean of sand, sparkling and dancing
like daggern the sunshine. The pure bril-
liancy Of lhesky left the Imagination nothing
TO desire. Not cloud obscured its splendor.
not azephyr moved the surface of the desert.
The earth and The heavens seemed on fire.
There was mild and awful majesty in the
universal stiffness! God, in all his infini,y,
seemed present TO the soul.
The desolale wanderer thought of the
fountains and roses Of his own native pro-
vinces, and wept aloud. He clasped the
palm, as if il had been living friend. He
shouted to relieve the forgelfulness of utter
solitude. The wide wilderness sent back
sharp sound from the dis,alce, bu, no echo
was awakened. The echo was in his head
With melancholy steps he walked around
the emincnce on which the palm trees grew

REPRESENTATION Is THE THIEF
TIME"
When thought comes tapping at the door
Where mem'ry's buried treasures lie,
And long forgotten scenes of yore
Steal softly Ger the spirits eye,
How many duties left undone,
And golden moments thrown away,
Whisper in low reproving tone.
Twas all the fruit of long delay.
When childish scenes, and sunny hours,
Come crowding on the busy thought,
How many lessons hard of ours,
Too oft by sad experience taught,
Haw many early friendships less,
And sinful acts of youthful days
Amid the voices of the past,
Whisper, beware of long delays.
When present duties lie forgot,
Some trifing pleasure to partake,
Be sure that ever active thought,
A vain regret will sometimes wake
Trust not the futures promise fair,
But do the dreaded task to-day
Our deepest grief and heaviest care
Are often caused by long delay.

LIKENESS IN DIFFERENCE.

There was tale of feeling,
Told at eve, in stately room,
Where the air was an odor steuling,
And the light was gorgeous gloom
And there was story whispered
At window, whose only blind
Was of wet vine leaves, that glistencd
And shook in the swaying wind;
Two tales that were diverse spoken,
Yet their import one 1 knew,
And the language of each was broken
And both were true
There was maiden gueenly-
Through bright halls gliding came,
Which grew brighter, as still serenely
She smiled DER an unbreathed Name
And there sat maiden lonely
On the hearth, striving, line by line,
By the light of the embers only,
To spell out Valentine.
Two hearts that were keeping duly
One time and one tune in each breast,
Both true loved and loving truly
And both were blest
