in the emerald meadows,
Below leafy hill
A child had launched his navy
OF lilies on the rill;
A precious little argosy,
Those lilies fresh and white
AS on the darcing waves they rode,
lie shouted with delight
He watched their dainty beauty,
As they gaily hoate1 on,
Now toying round the velvet banks
And rocking in the sun;
And then, like silver arrows
In waves of winter light,
A flashing down the foaming fall,
And shooting out of sight.
The birds sang p@ans o'cr him,
The sky was fragrant still,
Bright butterflies sailed round his ships,
Soft winds crept from the hill;
His loose locks hoatcd in the sun.
He warbled with the stream,
for lie thefe, IN the meadows,
Had the glory of a dream.
Beside mighty river,
Where it meets the sounding main,
An old man saw his stately ships
Float off 10 sea again.
Winds nesled in their great white wigs
And rainbows arched each PROV,
With streaming banners on they spcd;-
Why clouds his furrowcd brow1
The old man sits and pondcrs
When night winds vcx the sea,
And booming pillows pain his ear
With awful prophecy.
Alas his treasures bring no joy,
His sleep is not repose-
Like the deep prush Of the river
His restless being flows.
His stately ship, return no more,
He bends beneath his care,
But still looks ont upon the deep
To see if they are there;
His brain grows faint with thinking,
For thoughts like spectres rise,
Till the soothing hand efslumber
Softly shuts his aching eyes.
lie sport no,et ty the sircamlct.
In the meadows green and wide;
lie secs his ships Of lilies
On the sunny ripplcs glide
The soft breeze wanions with his hair,
His heart leaps blithc and Free
But hush no brcath--a shoreless main
Bears on life's argosy.

teen or twenty young ladies from that
city having hired horse there for the
season and were keeping bachelors hail
They wore the Bloomer dress, to en-
able them the better to get round here
among the sharp and high places and
spend their time chiefly in sporting

another with several woodpcckers or
other birds, third with basket of

all fine young ladies from the city of

nvAlffed Counte D'Orsay is dead. He
died at Paris about fortnight ago. It is
believed that no man ever lived--surrourd-
ed with every thing that an afluent for

diversity Of talent, than C.'unte D'Oyay.--
He was author, artistic, and musician, and
combined with this was the polish Of per-
feet gentleman. His good breeding was Of
that high order, which is not to be acquir-
ed BY study ~ an art. Its perfection con.
sists in never giving pain, either fro m IT,
nosance OF designedly.
In a short eulogy on his character in the
London Chronicle we find the following:
"Prehaps no man Of ruined fortunes and
blighted hopes ever left SO large number
Of admiring and attached friends to mourn
his loss. The solution Of his social phc-
nomenon is that his disposition was singu.
larry kind sympathizing and afFsctionate
and although some Of the selfshness Of the
man Of the world chung TO him as the inc.
vitable result Of his course Of life he never
contracted the hardness and insensibiliiy Of
that character. His time his influence his
firm judgment and his course $50 long as
there was anything in it, were always at
and the foolish and wrong actions from
which he saved hundreds by timely aid or
spirited remonstance will from an ample
set-of to those which We fear with only
too much reason have been imputed to him.
