The Church -Yard.-A Fragment.
By ALFRED WARD

BY ALFRED WARD.
Blow soft, We winds, above the dead.
Break not the silence by your strife,
Know ye. the ground on which ye tread,
Holds those most dear to us in life?
Art. thou hast tasked tbyself in vain
To render dearer those who sleep;
Friends who have followed in thy train
Turn from the cheerless pomp and weep
Those flowers that spring on yonder knoll,
Dotting the green and fertile sod,
Are emblems of the pure in soul.
Whose only dwelling place is God.
The willow and the cypress wave
Their branches meekly o'er the tomb;
The flower that's planted in the grave
Will flourish in immortal bloom.

DAILY EVENING STAR.
For the Star.l
TO FRIEND HULsEMANN,

hynheer Won Iiulsemann, one would think
Your troubles never ended,
Since, at O,.r seat of Government,
Levees you have attended.
why will you yeI your worthy mind,
And take n world of trouble
10 make our single eagle fear
Your bird with cdpra double?
We have not seen the monster fly,
Except before the foeman,
In that old time, when Bonaparte
was the sufficient Snowman.
And in these latter days, Mynheer,
Unless the folks were filnnng,
we have accounts, its iron legs
Made splendid time in running.
Mynhcer, poor Webster, one would thin...
Sent You sufficient greeting,
To cure your stomach of a taste
For diplomatic treating.
And though the country changed its head.
You fare but little better,
Except, Mynheer, that you receive
rather longer letter.
Friend Marcy has you on the hip,
And, were the matter lac king,
Without n single argument,
He'd find sufficient backing.
we don: esteem your country here;
They tell some awkward stories,
About your ways of life st home,
That closed lis ancient giories.
The bird, upon your standards sit
For want of better culture,
Has lost its fierccr nature, and
Becomes q ragged vulturr.
1t strikes no more at noble game,
But hurts the weak and fiying,
And whcts its bloody beak upon
The helpless and the dying.
We no more care for Austria,
Or for her fear or pleasure,
Than for the basrst coin in
Your Royal Master: treasure.
Ne sIt between the oceans here.
Az careless q! your Navy,
As Of duck, turned bottom up.
And swimming i'll its gravy.
And though friend Marcy chose to meet
Your funny law of NATIONS,
With learned talk of PuffendOrf,
And many wise quotations.
The common judgment OF the mass,
Returns his real answer,
That if you can't digest the act
Pray wait until you can, sir.
