THE DYING GIRL To HER FALSE
LOVER.

~ + OeIlC Oems
could have loved this sunny earth,
Its green and clinging things,
The brook DER which the willow bonds,
Tho grove where wild thyme springs;
But for the change that like cloud,
Game DER my youthful brow,
To tell me with its sullcn frown,
Thou hads't forgot thy vow.
Oil could'st thou dream the agony
That swelled this honving breast,
And know the grief which this dim eye
And paid check confessed.
The laugh that swelled upon thy voice
Amid the halls ofmirth,
Thy chilling words to INC, alas
Would never then have birth.
blame thee not that change has come,
And robbed my soul of bliss
Tho world ever heard was false,
And oft 1 dreamed of this:
Butyet thy seeming was so fair,
Thy words so like the truth,
l did not dream thou could'st betray
Mine innocence and youth.
gave thee all my virgin heart,
It's passions and its bliss
We're poured, together with my vow,
In one consuming kiss;
And, strained, all painting to thy soul,
Alas it did not seem
That what appeared so like to heaven
Was but passing dream.
Farewell, thou false one, when the breath
That fingers in this fir anne,
Shall pass among tho wasted dew,
In sadness breathe my name.
Aye, Der my tomb, ut silent eve,
One tear Of sorrow shed,
When all of her thou hast betrayed,
Lies smouldoring and dead.
Once more, farewell, feel that life
Is cbbing from me fast,
A chill like that they say is death,
Has DER my spirit passed;
But ere die, crave one kiss
From that too trcnchcrouS lip.
For mi4e, alas, too soon with wo rms
Shall hold comparionShip.
Once more, before the breath Is gone,
Oh, could'st thou love me now,
The dcws of death would lightly fall
Upon this burning brow.
That clasp wus warm, farewell, farewell,
Forgive this madness, Heaven,
And he, the breaker Of this heart,
May he too, be forgiven.

ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.

MIR. o., assuming the name Of
Jones, some years since, purchase small
piece Of land, and built on it neat house
on the edge of a common in Wiltshire
Here he long resided, unknown, by the
neighborhood. Various coniectures were
formed respecting this solitary and singu
lar stranger at length clergyman took
some notice Of him. and occasionally inVi
ted him to his house, he found him pos
sessed of intelligence and manners, which
evidently indicated his origin to have been
in the higher stations of life. Returning
one day from a visit at this clergyman's,
he passed the house of farmer, at the
door of which was the daughter employed
at the washing tub. He looked at the
girl a moment, and thus accosLed her
" My girl, would you like to be married %
Sir 20 exclaimed the girl-"I asked
you, young woman, whether YOU would
wish to be married, because if vou would,
will marry YOU Lord, Sir ! these
are strange questions from a man [ never
seen in my life before"
Very likely" replied Mr. Jones, " but
however, l am seri Gus, and will leave you
till ten o'clock tomorrow to consider of
it : l will then call upon yon again, and
if have yours and your fathers consent,
we will be married the following day"
He kept his appointment, and meeting
with the father, he thus addressed him !;
Sir, have seen your daughter; [ should
like her for wife and am come to- ask
your consent" "This proposal" an
swered the old man, " is very eXtraordi-
nary from a stranger Pray, sir, who are
you and what are you? &" Sir" re-
NJ IN
ask these questions my name is Jones !;
the new house on the edge of the common
is mine, and if it be necessary, l can pur-
chase your house and farm, and half the
neighborhOod."
Another hours conversation, brought
all parties into one mind. and the friendly
clergyman aforementioned, united the
happy pair. Three or four years they
lived in his refinement, and were blessed
with two CHILDREN. Mr.. J. employed a
great part of his time in improving his
wifc's mind, but never disclosed his own
origin. At length, upon taking jour
of pleasure with her, while remarking the
beauties of the country, he noticed and
named the different gentlemen's seats as
they passed and coming to very mag
nifcent one ne,-"This my dear" said he. is
B--house, the seat of the earl of
E., and if you please, we will go in and
ask leave to look at it ; it is an elegant
house, and probably will amuse you"
The noblcman who possessed this man
sion was lately dead. He once had a
nephew, who, in the gaties of his youth,
had incurred some debts, on account OF
which he had retired from fashionable life
on about E2OO per annum, and had,
not been heard Of for some years.
This nephew was the identical Mr.. Jones,
the hero of our story. who now took pos
session of the house, title, and estate, and
is the present of E-!!!

"Oysters in every STYLE" exclaimed
Mark Perciyal, as arm in arm with his
particular friend, Hiram Goodwin, he pas
sed a well-known establishment, where
the above words, placed in conspicuous
position, claimed the attention Of the pas
Sers-by.
"What say you to an oyster supper,
friend Hiram? Our dinner was none Of
the best"
No objection to the supper" was the
reply, "but some objections to paying
the bill. 1t will not answer for young
men with salary of four hundred year
to visit an oyster house too O(ten.'
Have no scruples on this score, my
dear fell ": Ofcourse, if invite you to
an oyster supper, the expense is my look

"And yours none the heavier. No, no,

Did you ever know my purse emp
ty 2" asked Mark, as he almost forced his
companion into the saloon, and gave H.
beral orders to the Obiging waiter, who
hastened to receive their commands.
" This is comfortable, on cold eve
ming" he continued, as the smoking stew
was placed before them. "It makes me
feel in little bett9r humor than l have
done for some hours past.
You out Of humor, Mark. thought
that was impossible. have always es-
teemed you as one Of the best tempered
persons in existence"
" AS to that, Hiram, one might as
we'll laugh as cry. Nevertheless, have
my troubles. To tell you secret,
lam very anxious to be rich man be-
fore my locks are gray, and l am quite at
IL loss as to the best means Of attaining this
desirable object"
"The prospect is not very encouraging,
to be be sure, with no capital, and a sala
ry of four hundred a year" replied his
friend thoughtfully "but we must hope
for the best. Our employers may consi-
der our services more valuable another
year"
"Yours may do so," was the indignant
answer "but there is nothing to be ho-
ped from mine. Between ourselves, there
is not a meaner man that walks the earth
than this same Morton Parker. Not a
penny ever slipt through his fingers, and
he bcgrudges the poor clerk his trihing
salary, and wonders what the young men
at this day can want with so much mo-
ney, while he himselfis rolling in wealth" :"
" But he was once poor boy, remark
ed the other; and at our age had not ad-
vanced farther on the road to wealth
we'll"
"There lies the wonder, Hiram. Is it
not strange that all this is soon FORGOTTEN?
One would suppose that, having experi-
enced the ills Of poverty, he would sym-
pathise with others, and lend a hel6inp
hand to those who are thrown in his
path. IBut he never bestows a thoupbt
upon the good Of those around him. His
own advancement is all he thinks Of
Well, thank Heaven, I have heart to
feel for others; and, if had the means, l
would not only climb to the top Of the lad :
der myself, but extend helping hand to
many poor fellow, yet standing on the
lowest round"
Do not be too sure of that, my friend.
