The bands that fold me here,
And list, sweet Sister, to thy call,
And dwell with those most dear.
" Como home - yes, there is ne'er a spot,
No home so bright as mine;
No smile so warm, no heart so true,

And warm emotions rise

Bring tear-drops TO mine eyes.
You miss me ? and / too doth miss
Thy soft and gentle tone
Tho beaming Of thy ~love-lit eye,
That fondly sought mine own.
The wrcathing Of thy soft young arm,
Thy fresh lips on my brow,
Sweet Sister, much / priced those joys,
But miss them, dearest, now!

And Sister, pray, that cen above
Our souls united be!
But, love, the sun shines brightly here,
The streamlcts dance and sing
And nh tho hearts nre free and true,
As Wild birds on the wing.
And many joys they offer me,
Fresh draughts Of pure heart love,
And tho It's SWEET pining turned
To home and thee sweet dove.

Written for the Spirit Of the Age.
The Tryst.-BY MEMO.
twilight calm and still was stealing Ger
The green and smiling bosom Of the earth,
And seemed the shadow of the coming night,
A with her husky mantle wrapped around
Her, and her star-gemmed diadem, she came
Forth like a queen from distant eastern hills.
A little maiden glided from the gate,
That stood half open, Of her Cottage Home,
And took her way with timid step along
A well known path. She paused beneath an Elm
Whose graceful branches dropped towards the earth,
And in the dim, uncertain light gnzed round
With eager and expectant eye. "Not hore,"
She softly said, in a voice whose tones
Were like the silvery chimes Of evening bells,
And with n half cloud on her fairy brow,
She stopped and gathering at her feet n branch
OF Wild mimosa's shrinking vine, she twined
Ii mid the raven trosses of her hair.
Leaning against the Elm's rough trunk, she gazed
Up to the dark'ning vault above, where shone
The frat few stars, when by her side there stood
A manly form. Gently his hand he placed
Upon the upturncd, dark brown eyes, and drew
her struggling, half n~arighted to his breast.
Arm linked in arm, hand clasped in hand they
strayed
Down the dim ay'nues Of the forest trees,
And whispered words Of tenderness amid
The rustling Of the leaves and streamlets voice.
