POETRY.
From Petersons Magazine.
My Heart Is Yearning for Thee. Love.
BY EDWARD 4. DARBY.

Ny heart is yearning for thee love,
As sit here acne,
Watching the changing twilight scenes,
And thinking Of home.
Mg heart is al TO night, my love.
That I'm SO far from thee,
Sitting beneath the wavy pines,
Beside the troubled sea.
The shadows deepen in the vale,
The stars come out on high,
And look upon the sleeping void
With mild and gentle eye.
The nisht-hird sings its primitive lay,
The sea is moaning near,
And many low and soothing sound
Falls soft upon my ear.
The scene is very beautiful,
No frirer need he seen;
The fields are full of biushing flowers,
Thew are soft and green.
The ar is sweet with breath OF flowers,
Nature is smiling here,
Yet the deWy sky is weeping row,
And the earth receives its tear.
Were you but sitting by my side,
Your hand upon my breast,
Watching the silver star that giows
So brightly in the West,
And listening to the signing sound
That comes from the moaning sea,
This earth would be Paradise,
And you my eve would be.
No SORROW then would fill my heart.
But Joy would come to me.
And Irvine reath Of fadeless flowers
For me my love, and thee.
Such bliss cannot be mine tonight,
So must wait awhile
Till Fate shall let me taste thy kiss,
And see Thy sunny smile.

Liierature.-It opens back door out Of
the busy idle world into delicious garden
of moral and intellectual fruits and flow

Of mankind. Our happiness no longer
lives on charity, nor bids fair for fall, by
leaning on that most precarious and thorny
pillow, another's pleasure, for our repose.

Ell. A True Mother.-A writer beautifully
remarks that mans mother is the repre-
sentative of his Maker. Misfortune and
mere crime set no barriers between her
and her son. While his mother lives, a
man has one friend on earth who will not
desert him when he is needy. Her affec-
tions flow from pure fountain, and cease
only at the ocean Of eternity. ali
