ened TO the Dukes tent, and, giving the
pass word, was ushered IN BY The sentinel.
HIS Grace was asleep. The doctor was
aware of the fatigue the Dukes system had
undergone. aud hestated 10 wake him.
The order of the Duke, on the other hand,
had been issued with more than usual per-
emploriness aud the doctor se0tufed TO
give the Duke a shake. In an Instant his
Grace, dressed as he had been, IN full regi-
meuias, was sitting on the bedside. Read,
was the significant command. For more
than an hour had the doctor read aloud the

his throat choked with emotion, lie tried

ed up and caught his eye. Read on was
the stern command, and while his physician
continued for hours, the Iron Duke sat by
the bedside, clasping his hands, and rock

the design of the following beautiful verses
in the October number of the Southern Lite

plished editor, JOHN r. THOMPSON, ESQ.,:
Tom MOORE. IN thy verse with pafhos 90 true,
That when in the they should lay thee to res

"nere Clio her vigs keeps DER the dead.
Fer long ere the daisies have tuffed the spot,
!, Inere comes q cold critic. and, after his kind,
Recalls all those foilies by others forgot -
And plants them like nettles to grow there er-
twin'd:
Tins Envy, in triumph at last thou rejoicest -
"nen Death breaks the bowl at the fountain for
What shone so brightly as gold Of the cbo;cest
Asvaiueless lies as the vilest of clay.

Ane Ionoess remembrance that woman in sorrow
Can cling to-the faith and the love Of her lord

Oer the FOSSILS of critics times strata shall lie
MooREs verse anaranthine its freshness shall keen
As fairly a. when It first bloomed to the eve
And though other minstrels to rapture NAV waken
With genius as cunning the strings of the lvre
The world that his Melodies captive have t,psn'
