TO SPIDER.

Spider thou need'st not run in fear about
70 shun my curious eyes
womb humanely crush thy bowels out,
Lest thou shouldst eat the flies
Nor vii! | roast thee with Il fierce delight,
Thy strange instructive fortitude to see,
For there is one who'might
One day roast me.
Thou'rt welcome to n rhymer sore perplex'd
The subject Of his verse
There's many n one who on a better text
Perhaps might comment worse
Then shrink not, old Frcemason, from my view,
But quietly, like me-, spin out The line
Do thou my work pursue,
As | will mine.
Weaver of snares, thou e~mblemest the ways
OF Satan. sire of lies
IIell's huge black spider, for mankind he lays
His tolls as thou for flies.
When Botty's busy eye runs round the room,
Woe to that nice geometry if seen!
But where is he whose broom
The earth shall clean ?
rplueF OF olu my Hiilsey NcDS were thought
And twas q likeness true,
To emblem laws in which the weak are caught
But which the strong break through
And if a victim in thy tolls is ta'en.
Like some poor client is that wretched fly;
I'll warrant thee thou'lt drain
His life-blood dry.
And is not thy weak work like human schemes
And care on earth employ'd?
Such are young hopes and Loves delightful
dreams,
So easily destroyed!
So does the statesman, while the avengers sleep
Selfdeem'd secure, his wiles in secret lay
Soon shall destruction sweep
His work away.
Thou busy laborer. one resemblance more
May yet the verse prolong,
For, spider, thou art like the poet poor,
Whom thou hast help'd in song
Both busily our needful food 70 win,
We work, as Nature taught, with ceaseless
pains
Thy bowels thou dost spin,
/ spin my brains.

ANTI-SLAVERY BUGLE.
COMFORT.

Hast thou DER the clear heaven Of thy sJul,
Seen tempcsts roll?
Hast thou watch'd all the hopes thou would'st
have won,
Fade, one by one
Wait till the clouds arc past, then raise thine
eyes
To llucr skier!
Hast thou gone sadly through a dreary night,
Aud found no light,
No guide, no star, to cheer thee through The
plain
No friend, save pain
Wait, and thy sad soul shall see, when mos.
l%orlorn,
Rise a now morn.
Hast thou beneath nnother's stern control,
Bent thy sad soul,
And wasted sacred hopes and precious tears?
Yet calm thy fears,
For thou cnust gain even from the bitterest part
y stronger heart!
Has fate o'erwhclmed thee with some sudden
blow
Let thy tears flow
But know when storms are past, the heavous
appear
More pure, more clear;
And hope, when larthest from their shining
rays,
For brighter days.
Hast thou found life a cheat, and worn in vain
Its iron chain?
Hath thy soul bent }eneath earth's heavy bond!
Look thou beyond;
If lie is bitter, there forever slime,
Hopes more divine !!
Art thou alone, and does thy soul complain
1t lives in vain?
Not yainly does he live who can endure.
o be thou sure,
That he who hopes and suffers here can earn
a sure return.
Hast thou found nought within thy troubled life
Save inward strife
Hast thou found all she promised thee, Deceit,
And Hope a cheat?
Endure, and there shall dawn within thy breas
Eternal rest {.

MoLEs, PARTRIDGEs, AND PHEAsANTs.

Geo. wilkins, in defending the cause of moles,
partridses, phoasants and ants, in the Agricultural
bazotte, dl5cOurses thus Come let YOU and me
reason II little time together. You pay n man, Mr..
Greenlng, to destroy your moles?" Yes, sir. |
do, and always will" DO you know what it was
Intended, when that little, beautiful, industrious,
and truly interesting and innocent creature was
created, that he should Go?" mo, | do not. nor
do | care hate to see molehills on my farm, and
so, as others do, | kill all the mlles | can" did
you ever ask yourself what they lived upon ?-what
they were after when they showed you, by the ex-
hibltion Of those bills you complain of, that they
were at work in your fields ?" "No, | never did"
Did you read, in the Journal of the Royal Agri-
cultural Society, that in one year, and every year,
full 5000 bushels Of seed wheat, equal at this
time to nearly 100000 worth, are destroyed by
wireworms? You will find in that work. think,
for lo45-the statement | have just above made Of
the wonderful destruction made by wireworms ;
for rememl err, if 10000 bushels Of seed were des-
troyed, full 10000 bushels of crop were prevent
cd-equ1i in value, at this time, to upwards Of
S300,OO0 a year Now do not be angry; | tell
you, without fear Of refutation, that if farmers, in
stead OF killing moles, partridges, and pheasants,
would protect them 720, 600 more bushels of wheat
would 90 every year into the English markets
but the creature, designed, as have said, by Il
kind Providence, to perform the chief part Of this
immense good, is the mole, which YOU and your
friends destroy. But come, sir. keep your seat.and
let us reason together n little further. Some
years since, | had two fields, che of which was
full of wireworms, and the other was infested
with them TO the extent of more than ono-third
part of it. My crops failed for the first two or
three years She land was in my possession, but
every year afterwards they improved, and at length
rapidly. What plan did | then pursue, Mr.. Green
ing? Why, the reverse exactly to your plan !
bought all the live moles | could obtain. first at
b, a dozen and then at IS. and turned them down
in my fields, and one year in which II had s quart
ers of barley on an acre, and nearly I quarters OF
wheat. the moles were at work all the summer, and
in such numbers that, as | walked among the
growing crop, the ground under my feet was like
a honeycomb but that was the last year | had 4
mole on my land their work being done, theiI
iood-thc former pests to my crops being all con
sumcd. the little innocent wOrkmen, Mr.. Greening
who had performed for me a service beyond the
powers of all the men in my parish, migrated tC
my neighbors to perform for them the same kind
benefit they had for me but, OF course, death met
them at every move, and soon the colony was des

For THE GRANp RIVER TINES.

Mr. EDiToR:-I send you the following line,
which you are at liberty to publish in your paper
If, after perusal, you should deem them worthy
Z '.o- OLIVE TO ADA.
Twas on the eleventh day of May,
That received your gentle line,
Just as the sun at closing day,
Sank in his pensive sweet decline,
Behind the westward fields and woods
' Where spring, with tender fingers sweet,
Unfolds her robe of bursting buds, Or
With many a minstrel band to greet,
The thankful spirit Of the good.
1t chanced that was thinking them
Gas we at eve are won't to do,)
Mournfully-if it were ever-when,
Again I'd see or hear from you
Hope whispered, "Ye shall meet again,
More bcst than ever in former times !"
But fear struck up solemn strain,
"Perchance twill be in heavens fair climes-
Perchance you hope for this in vain"
How sweet it were to meet in heaven,
The human mind can never frame;
But nature to the heart had given,
OF melting love that tender fame
Whose soft attractions strive to win,
The absent loved one back again.
And if this were a mortal sin,
My hopes ofheaven were wond'rous vain,
For Death and Love have strength akin.
When morn uprising in the East,
Shakes laughing from her locks the dew,
When silent night comes up the West,
I'm thinking, Ada, then Of you
When sleep unfolds her balmy wings,
Isweetly think the long night through;
Morn shows how false the songs she sings,
And 1 think painfully of you.
Sweet is the breath of early Spring,
And sweet the birth of infant flowers;
But what are all of lovely things,
Compared to that kind glance of yours
Wilt thou, then, Ada, grant it me,
Whose tender care awaits thee ever,
One more sweet pensive line from thee,
And I'll forget thee-never, never

body, corrupt the morals, stultify the mind.
And the result does not stop with husband
and wife. There are children They par
take of the feebleness and vice of the parents,
both physical and moral, and go out into
the busy world stunted and gnarled. God
pity theml
We would not be understood as speaking
against the institution of marriage. 1t is
holy, beautiful and benefcient But let ev-
cry one take his mate or none. Let not the
brave eagle, pair with the stupid owl, nor
the gentle dove with the carrion crow
Like should have like. 1t is glorious sight
to see two old people who have weathered
the storms and basked in the sunshine of
life together, go hand-in-hand, lovingly and
truthful down the gentle declivity Of time,
with no anger, or jealousies, or hatreds,
garnered up against each other, and looking
with hope and JOY to the everlasting youth
of heaven, where they, too, shall be one for
ever This is true marriage--for it is the
marriage of spirit with spirit. Their love is
woven into woof of gold, that neither time,
nor death, nor eternity can sever.
