Evening solaoe.
by cURRER BELL.

by oURRER BELL.
The human heart has hidden treasures
In secret kept in silence sealed
The thoughts the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures
Whose charms were broken, II revealed.
And days may pass in gay confusion,
And nights in noisy riot fly,
While lost in Fame's or Wealth's illusion, .
The memory Of the Past may die.
But there are hours Of lonely musing,
Such as in the evening silence come,
When soft as birds their pinions closing,
The hearts best feelings gather home
Then in our souls there seem 10 languish
A tender grief that is not wo;
And thoughts that once wrung groans OF anguish,
Now cause but some mild tears 10 How
And feelings, once strong as passions,
Float softly back-a faded dream
Our own sharp griefs and wild sensations
The taste Of others sufferings seem
Oh when the heart is freshly bleeding,
How longs il for that time 70 be,
When through the mist of years receding,
Its woes but live in reyerie. NE
And it can dwell on moonlight glimmer,
On evening shades and loneliness,
And while the sky grows dim and DINNER,
Feel no untold and strange Distress
Only deeper impulse given
BY lonely hour and darkened room,
To solemn thoughts that soar TO heaven,
Seeking life and world to come.

The Spiritualists, Marriage.

The newspaper comments respecting the mar
rage of Mr.. Davis and Miss Robinson, and the
former connexion Of the latter with Mr. Love
have called out the discarded husband, a school
teacher in Buffalo and sad to be very respecta-
BILE and clever gentleman, who makes the follow
ing statements:
" First. / am not spiritualist, nor am consid-
cred one by my friends and those who best know
me. have devoted some attention 70 the so-called
phenomenon Of spiritualism,' but have failed to
appreciate many Of its fundamental principles.
Second. To my knowledge, spirits were not
consulted In regard TO the divorce In question nor
was the least influence from that source exerted
upon NV mind.
Third. About one year since, Mary +. Robin
son, formerly my wife, went into the States of
Ohio and Indiana, for the purpose of lecturing.
had no anticipation Of the event Of divorce until
notice was served upon me to that effect
Fourth. i am not married again, nor have
any such proceeding in prospect at present"
The Medina Wing says:
From limited acquaintance with Mr.. Love, as
well as from bis reputation where he Is best known
we are led TO regard hlm with high esteem"
THE CRors--No JoNr woRx-The farmers
are becoming very solicitous about their crops of
small grain, though the prospect for an abundant
harvest v as never more lattering than Il was ten
or hfteen days ago. Since that time the chinch bug
has been advancing in solid column through the
waving fields Of wheat and rye, changing the lux
uriant green into the autumnsl shades. Without
abundant rain and warm sunshine the fatterine
prospect of few weeks ago must be biiqhted to a
great degree in upper Spottsylvanis and Orange
counties. A friend writes that he has not heard
Of or seen crippled stalk Of wheat from joint

and that II now is question whether the heat OF
