This work is conducted in the spirit OF

part of our literary, historical, and political
harvest, as fully 10 satisfy the wants Of the
American reader.

Edinburgh Quarterly, aud other Reviews

buttons to Literature, History, aud Common
Life, by the sagacolis Spectator, the spark
ling Examiner, the jndicious Atheneuni, the
busy aud industrious Gazette, the sensible

respectable Christian Observer; these are
intermxed with the Military and Naval remi-
uiscences of the United Service, and with
the best articles of the Dublin University,
New Monthly, Frazer's, Tuil's, Ainsworth's,
Hoods, aud Sporting Magazines, and OF
Chamber's admirable Journal. We do not
consider it beneath our dignity TO borrow
wit aud wisdom from Punch and, when we
think il good enough, TO make use of the
thunder of The Times. We shall increase
our variety of importations from the conii-
nent of Europe, aud from the new growth
of the British Colonies.
We hope that, by winnowing the when
from the chafl,' by providing nbundnnlly for
the Imagination, aud by large collection OF

Turns my soul, with love enduring,
To my thrice dear native land
Homoward, over Oceans pillows,
How the watchers heart beat wild,
When the first land breeze that kisses,
Whispers" Welcome home my child -
Where the Delaware throws open
Her broad arms of living green
First Cape may, and then Henlopen,
Stretch d like welcoming hands they seem
Now we mark the willows bending,
Till they kiss the laughing wave,
And the broad green fields extending
Till their very lips they lave.
And the fairy barks whose canvass,
Speads like white wings DER the tide,
While, deep-mirrored in the the waters,
Like double life they glide.
Born amid the rugged mountains,
Thro' rocky channel thrown,
Dreamed the first gush Of its fountains,
Thro, such soft scenes e'er to roami
Like o childhood full Of sorrow,
Struggling, toiling, onward, lone,
Strength came with the boding morrow,
Till all woes were overcome.
Such, thy childhood. o my nation,
Born amid the Old Worlds scorn,
But thy present, like this river,
Calm and mighty, glideth on.
Faircr seem to me thy children,
Than the sons of other lands
None so proud, and none so servile,
Stronger, purer, Virtue stands.
Yondor rise their homes Of beauty,
Reared by Love and honest toll,
Flowers around them, trees embower then
Blest, thrice blcst-my native soil

The parties being much attached to eacl
other, although family obstacles prevented
their immediate marrying in torma, they
resolved to adopt the plan above mentioned
which consists in the couple presenting
themselves before the curate Of the parish
and stating to him in the presence of two
witnesses that they are man and wife
This forms valid marriage according to
the law of the church Of Rome. The lady
in the present case being Roman Catho-
lie sent to the curate to inform him that she
wished to confess, and requested him TO
name the hour that would suit him to hear
her. At the hour named she repaired to
the confessional and had fully engaged the
priests attention, when her lover, attended
by two witnesses suddenly presented him.

hand, the fatal words were pronounced, the
witnesses attested, and the curate became
the unwilling instrument of a marriage by
surprise 2 But although the marriage con-
tracted in this manner is perfectly valid, it
is punishable in Tuscany as civil misde-
ne.nor. so that the law condemns what the
church sanctions.

UTrust in God and PerscVere."
BY OLIVER oAKwooD.

BY OLIVER LAKEWOOD.
Brother, is life's morning clouded :?
Has the sunlight ceased to shine +?
Is the earth in darkness shrouded?
Wouldst thou at thy lot repine
Cheer up, brother let thy vision
Look above-see! light is near:
Soon will come the next transition
''Trust in God and persevere!"
Brother, has life's hope receded!
Hast thou sought its joys in vain!
Friends proved false when mostly needed,
Foes rejoicing at thy pain?
Cheer up, brother there's blessing
Waiting for thee-never fear;
Foes forgiving, sins confessing,
"Trust in God and persevere!"
Brother, all things round are calling,
With united voice, ''Be strong!"
Though the wrongs of earth be calling,
They must lose their strength ere long.
Yea, my brother, though life's troubles
Drive thee near to dark despair,
Soon twill vanish like bubble
rust IN UOu anu peiseFeie!
He, from his high throne in heaven,
Watches every step you take;
He will see each fetter riven
Which your foes in anger make.
Cheer up, brother!-He has power
To dry up the bitter tear;
And, though darkest tempests lower,
"Trust in God and persevere!"
Brother, there's quiet slumber
Waiting for thee in the grave;
Brother, there's glorious number
Christ in mercy deigns to save.
Wait, then, till life's quiet even
Closes round thee calm and clear;
And till called from earth to heaven,
"Trust in God and persevere !"

Irish Parental Affection.

We were told good anecdote the other
day of an honest Hibernian, which is vouch.
ed for as perfectly Authentic and true. We
have frequently heard of persons having
their departed favorites-dogs, cats, and
birds, set up after death by some experienc.
cd Toxidermist, in their image, as they liv.
ed. but never such an instance as the pres.
ent. The Hlbernian was engaged in the
honest and legitimate trade of hod carrier
and one morning presented himself at the
building he was assisting to construct with
a very dolorous countenance, and bade the
"boss" good morning.
"Mornin', Mike Why amt you at
work to day?''
'.Oh, sir, haven't the heart to do it, sir
Such misfortin's happened %
"What's that, Mike p
"The babby, sir-Jamey. He died last

Il am very sorry for you, Mike, I'm
sure. But don't cry about it; bear it like
man."
"Its mighty hard, sir. Such beautiful
babby, the finest of all the children. Cur
ly hair, strand white skin, just like his
father! Oh, wurra, wurra, what'll do?
"Come, come, cheer up and go home and
comfort your old woman ?''was the encour-
aging reply of his boss. The child's better
off perhaps than if he had lived to struggle
in this hard world
"Oh, | know that, sir. It's aisier to gel

He looks so natural and beautiful, dead as
