And 10 a Nation reused from slumber, broke
The awful tidings of his fatal stroke
On every ear the sad announcement fell,
Causing each heart with softened grief TO

Each eve the bitter tear unchecked to shed
For him now numbered with the mighty

For him, the Statesman, Orator, and Sage,
Pride of our country, glory OF our age
Whose words of wisdom, with reslsllesS

Have graced our brightest, cheered our

Whose councils wise on hstory's page will

And speak his praise in this and every land

'whcn and all those that hear shall have gone
our last home, and when the mould may have gathered
our memories as it will on our tomls-"-WEBsrER'
SPEECH IN THE SENATE JuLY, 1850.
The mould upon thy memory! No,
Not while one note is rung
OF those divine, immortal songs
Milton and SHAKESPEARE sung;
Not till the night of year enshrouds
The Anglo-Sax6n tongue.
No let the flood of Time roll on,
And men and empires die
Genius enthroned Oh lofty heights,
Can its dread course defy,
And here on earth can claim the gift
OF immortality:
Can save from that Leihean tide,
That sweeps so dark along,
A peoples name peoples fame
To future time polong,
As Troy still lives. and only lives,
ln Homer's deaihless sung.
Wha, though TO buried Nineveh
The traveller may come,
And roll away the stone that hides
That lone-torgoiten tomb;
He questions its mute past i'll vain-
lis oracles are dumb
What though he stand where Balbec stood,
Gigantic in lis pride,
No voice comes DER that silent waste
Lone, desolate, and wide;
They had no bard, no orator,
No slatesman-and they died.
They lived their little span of life,
They lived and died in vain
They sank in2lorously beneath
Obllvon's silent reign,
As sank beneath The Dead Sea wave
The Cities of the Plain.
But for those famed, immortal lands
Greece and imperial Rome,
Where Genus left its shining mark,
And found its chosen home;
Ali eloquent with mind they speak,
Wood, wave, and crumb!e dome.
The honcyed words OF Plato still
Float on The echoing air,
The thunder Of Demosthenes
Egean waters bear;
And the pilgrim 10 the Forum hears
The voice of Tully there.
Aud thus thy memory shall live,
And Thus thy fame resound,
w iniii5 lar.nf future ages roll
Their solemn cycle round,
And make this wide, this fair New World,
An ancient, classic ground. -
Then with our Country's glorious name
Thine own shall be eutwined,
| Within The Semale's pillared hall
Thine image shall be shrined, ... .. .
| And on The Nations Law shall gleam
Light from thy giant mind.
Our pioudest monuments no more
May rise to meet the sky,
The stately Capitol o'erthrow,
Low in The dust may lie;
But mind, snblime above the wreck,
Immortal !-cannot die!

THE BLIND LOVER.

A correspondent of the "Courler des

papers, which he heads the Secrets OF
Charity. The "To-day," Boston Literary
journal, translates from one OF these the
following pleasing story
There are in Paris two charitable per-
sons, rich, young and happy, who give eS-
pecially to blind beggars, out OF pity to
those mendicants, and not on account OF
their dogs. have seen them hundred
times pause before these poor people, smile
sadly at their misfortune, and assist them
with full hands. The poor blind people
soon come TO know them; they learn the
way which leads to their home ; they are
never repuSed by the porter OF this noble
house they are always certain to reach
the charity of that dwelling, with closed
eyes. | have no right to mention the
names of these two kind hearts of whom |
