NY FRIENDS.

Oh, they are precious to my heart,
My chosen friends, the few
Who guard me with affections eye,
Who blame and bless me too;
Whose hearts keep echoing tondiy back,
In loves eternal tone, i. .. -.
The joys, the hopes, the thoughts, the icafs
That tremble in my own.
To meet their sweet qonfdiug smiles,
Bright with affections dew,
To feel that am with the meek,
The pure in heart, the true,
To look into their earnest eyes,
Where thoughts the brightest dwell
An angels harp, an angels tongue,
Alone such bliss may tell.
And oh, when absent, how | love
10 call to mind the past,
To count Ger every word they spake
Before we parted last,
To gather up each look and tone,
And number every smile,
Till am lost amid the gems
That CLEAN on memory's isle.
My friends, they are not many, yet
| know their hearts are. true
All, sweeter than the praise of all
Is Friendship from the te,c!
I'd rather live in kindred hearts,
TO glory quite unknown,
Than hold nation in command,
And fill friendless throne.
And cen if some should turn aside,
And change as friends have done,
They should not perish from my heart.
Oh no, not one! not one!
Love is too mighty in my soul
To wear obiyion's pail,
And i'll had thousand hearts
Pd love, ay, with them all.

LADIES RIDING SGDEwArs.-The honor
of the introduction Of riding sideways by
women in England, is attributed to Anna
of Bohemia, consort Of Richard II. She it
was (according to Stow that originally
showed the women of this country how
gracefully and Conveniently they might
ride on horseback sideways. Another old
historian enumcrating the new fashions OF
Richard the Seconds reign. observes ::
s'Likewise noble fades thea used high
heads, and corsets, and robes with long
trains, and seats on side saddles on their
horses, by the example Of the respectable
queen Anna, daughter Of the King OF. Ba-
yaria, who first introduced the custom INTO
his lincdom; &C. &C: before, women Of every
rank rode as men, In the beautiful illus
trative picture of Chaucer's Canterbury
Pilgrims, Stothard appears to have commit
ted ain anachronism in placing the most
conspicuous female character of has Gne
compositions sideways on her steed. That
the lady should have been depicted riding
in the ten ale fashion might, it strikes us,
have been inferred, without any historical
research on the subject, from the poets de-
Scriting her as having on her feet "a pair

Omer Pasha, formerly an. Austrian officer,

be the just punishment of their rapacity and
ambition. As this, too, is likely TO take
place Before there is time for diplomatic
communications, it must of course be ac-
cepted as a STAT accompE."
Although Austria has assembled large
army on the Dalmatian frontier, we do not
think there is any danger of its entering the
Turkish dominions. In spite Of the militia
ry tastes Of young emperor, in spite of
the temptation ofa strong army and weak
enemy, Austria has too many vulnerable
points at home and France, as we'll as
England, is too ill,disposcd towards her at
this moment to Justify tie most venturous
of her councillors IN recommending a war
with Turkey. If Austria fires gun, it re-
quires no great gift of prophecy TO foretell
that Italy and Hungary are free.
