ROME.

Twas dark: a sable cloak hung DER the tswer,
Whose thick'ning folds made 1rear the mid
night hour;
Death-silence reigned, and all was hush'd and
still,
Save distant echoes DER the Pauline hill,
Which zane at intervals from crowded halls,
Where wealth and beauty shone in splendid
balls!
With ~quick'ning pace the steeds Of Phebus
rode
Forth from their Eastern halls-their bright
abode,
And, ere they had appeared, their traces broke,
And as they fed the jewellers awoke
To view, with sunkeD eye and sick'ning heart,
The wealth and glory of the state depart!
The gloom grew ticker, and the funeral ::knell
The truth announced; and they innobly fell:
Once more a sable cloud hung o'vr the hill
And every artery in the state was still;
No echo came from court or crowded hall;
For all was hushed in their last mournful fall!

Jrne, with its roses-June!
The gladdest month Of our capricious year,
With its thick foliage and its sunlightcle
And with the drowsy tune
OF the bright leaping waters, as they pass
Laughingly on amid the springing grassl
Earth at her joyous coming,
Smiles as she puts her gayest mantle on,
And Nature greets her with a benson;
While myriad voices, humming
Their welcome song, breathe dreamy music
round,
Till seems the air an element Of sound.
The oveIarching sky
Weareth softer tint, a lovelier blue,
Al if the light of heaven wele melting through
Its sapphire home on high;
Hiding the sunshine in their vapoury breast,
The clouds float on like spirits to their rest.
A deeper melody,
Pour'd by the birds, as DER their callow young
Watchful they hover, to the breeze is fang
Gladstone, yet not of glee-
Music heart-born, like that which mothers sing
Above their graded infants slumbering.
On the warm hillside, where
The sunlight fingers latest, through the grass
Peepeth the luscious strawberry! As they pass,
Young children gambel there.
Crushing the gather'd fruit in playful mood,
And staining their bright faces with the blood.
A deeper blush is given
To the half-ripen'd cherry, as the sun
Day after day pours warmth the trees upon.
Till the rich pulp is riven;,
Thetruant school-boy looks with longing eyes,
And perils limb and neck 10 win the prize.
The farmer, in his field,
Draws The rich mould arounl the tender maize:
While hope, bright pinion'd, points to coming
days,
When all his toll shall yield
An ample harvest, and around his hearth,
There shall be laughing eyes and tongues of
mirth.
Poise on his rainbow-wing,
The butterfly, whose life is but an hour,
Hovers coquettishly from flower to flower,
A gay and happy thing;
Born for the sunshine and the summer day,
Soon passing, like the beautiful. away!
These are thy pictures, June!
Brightest Of summer months-thou month of
1owers'
First-born of beauty, whose swift footed hours
Dance to the merry tune
OF birds, and waters, and the pleasant about
Of childhood on the sunny hills peal'd out.
/ feel it wer, not wrong
To deem thou art a type Of heavens cline,
Only that there the clouds and storms of time
Sweep not the sky along;
The Observation-Disclosures are thine,
But Observation-Disclosures divine!
