A Ba cheIOr's Woes.

What a pi.irul thing an old bachelor is,
With his cheerIcss house, and his rueful phiz
On bitter night when the fierce winds blow
When The earth is covered with feet Of fsnow
When his fire is out, and in shivering dread
lie slips meath The sheets Of his lonely bed.
How he draws up his toes,
All encased in yarn hose,
And he buries his nose,
Meath the chilly bed clothes;
That his nose and his toes,
Sill encased in yarn hose,
May not chance TO get froze.
Then he Pufs and he blows,
And he swears that he knows,
No mortal e'er suffered such woes,
And with Ah's! and with Obs!
And with limbs so disposed,
That neither his toes,
Nor his nose may be froze,
TO his awful repose,
in silence the bachelor goes.
In the Morn when the cock crows,
And the sun 'S.as just rose,
From beneath the beu clothes
Pops the bachelors nose,
And as you may suppose,
when he hears how the wind blows,
And sees the windows all (roze,
Why back meath The bed clothes,
Pops The poor wre'ch's nose,
For full well he knows,
If from The bed he rose,
To put on his clothes,
That he'd sur, ly be fioze.

And all the world seemed brighg
For though my love had ne'er been told,
Yet, yet, saw Thy form
Beside me in the midnight watch,

And many blissful dream had,

Just as it came when last we leaned
Upon the Church.yard Stile.
I'm here 10 seek thee now, Mary,
As all love thee best;
To fondly tell thee how, Mary,

And crown with Manhood's honest faith,

Oh! years may pass away. Mary,
And Sorrow lose its suing:
For lime is kind they say, Mary,
And flies with healing wing;
The world may make me old and wise,
And hope may have new birth,
And Other Joys and Other lies,

But memory, living to the last,
Shall treasure up thy smile,

stance, of which the editor was perfectly cogni.
zant:-
Some years ago we were perfectly cognizant
TO an occurrence Of this kind, which was of the
mort heartrending character. The wife of a
gentleman was taken suddenly i'll in church,
and was carried to her home in a stale Of syn.
cope. In a few hours she partially recovered,
but Immediately relapsed, and never showed
any signs of consciousness. She lay in this
condition nearly two days, battling the skill oI
the physicians, and then as ii was thought, and
as there was almost every reason to bell eve
died. No signs Of breathing could be detected
( the limbs became rigid and cold, and the eyes
remained open with the fixed aud CLASSY stare
of death; but there was 20 change in the color
of the skin. This was the only reason in the
world for supPosing that dissolution had not ia.

and il was not until three days had passed
without The laintesI signal Of change or sign Of

She was entombed in vault. Months pas.

an elegant monument in it, and when all was

of his wife from The vault TO its final resting

presented itself was nconceivabIy horrible, fol

had turned quite over upon her side, she had
