What need for fancy in home like mine
To giid its radiant Joys divine
To paint ifs hopes-its hallowed bliss
The heasiag heart--the glowing kiss!
What with the sunset could the painter do
TO give Its glory one more lovely hue
To stretch along the ever gorgeous sky
One tins mere pleasing to the fancy's eye!
So in home where love aad virtue reign
Gay fancy's arts are all in vain ~ w
So like sunset do its splendors shine
Across the lowering verge OF time.
There is a sunbeam iu each hour OF life, u
A holy radiance, It's the loving wife
On every step her sacred yirtnes rise
More brilliant than the noon-day skies
And when life's fceting day shall close,
And sink in evenings sweet repose;
Fond mem'ry light-will finger round its shrine
BY far than sunset more divine p.

A Tale Of the Night Times.
BY PAUL cREYroN.

Mr.. BENZ. F. Derby returned in towr
and to his lodgings at Mrs. Covey's
rather sooner than he was expected
II was late in the evening, and enter
ing by means of his night key, and
6nding nobody stirring, he walked
ieisureiy up to his room. y
This was the apartment Mr.. Derby
had always occupied in Mrs Covey's
house; bat on this occasion it seemed
to him verylittle like his hoine-Before
leaving town he had carefully put
away all his clothes in his trunks, and
during bis absence, other revolutions
had been made in the room. which
gave it different air.
Not the least disagreeable thing in
the room was the darkness. Mr.. Der
by had entered without a lamp; but
after knocking over an ink-bottle, q
vase and snuff-box, in his blind search
he concluded that the wisest course
would be to stop swearing, and 60 to
the bed in the dark.
In no very good humor, Mr.. Benz. F,
Derby began to undress. To return
home after an absence of two weeks,
and to be obliged to go to bed in such
q dismal manner, almost broke bis
heart: lie might have rung for the
servants, it Is true, and he might have
reflected fhat his friends were excusa-
Bile, since they did not expect him bu'
Mr.. Beaj. F. Derby chose TO be angry
and silent.
/" And where is Margret Maria" NUT
tered the unhappy man. "Oh, taithles
daughter olan unieeling landIady did no
expect this from you. When ! tore mysel
from your arms two weeks ago, you pro
tested with tears in your eyes and perid.

Soh as rays Of sunlight stealing
On the dying day;
Sweet as chimes of low bells pealing
When eve fades away;
Sad as winds at night that moan
Through the heath DER mountain lone,
Come the thoughts of days now gone
On rnanhood's memory.
As the sunbeams from the heaven
Hide at eve their light;
As the bells when fades the even
Peals not in the night;
As the night winds cease to sigh
When the rain falls from the sky
Pass the thoughts of days gone by
From ages memory.
Yet the sun light in the morning
Forth again shall break,
And the bells give sweet voice warning
To the world 10 wake
Soon the winds shall freshly breathe
Ger the mountain purple heath;
But the past is lost in Death
He hath no memory.
