ASPIRATION.

The high-born soul
Disdains to rest her heaven aspiring wing
Beneath her native quarry. Tired of earth,
And this diurnal scene, she springs aloft ..
Through fields of air !; pursues the flying storm;
Rides on tho vollicd lightnings through tho hea-
vens
Or, yoked with whirlwinds and the northern
,t blast,
Sweeps tho long track of day. Then high she
scars
Tho blue profound, and, lowering round tho sun:
Beholds him pouring the redundant stream
OF light beholds his unrelenting sway
Bend the reluctant planets to absolve
The fated rounds of Time. [Akenside.

OH, GIVE NOT UP TO SORROW.

BY EDGAR W. DAVIS.
Oh give not up to sorrow,
And never know despair
Let Hope light up the morrow,
With all its holy cheer.
Why should we mar the moments,
That past us swiftly fly,
By cruel, dark forebodings,
When JOY itself is night
Though dark misfortunes meet us,
And friends and fortune fail,
And many objects greet us,
To tell the saddened tale
Let's view it as our share of toll,
That's nobly to be borne
6 And light will be the burthcn,
Howe'er the heart was torn.
Oh give not up to sorrow,
And never know despair
Let hope light up the morrow,
With oil its holy cheer.
He who can light the darkness
Will every care disarm-
The storm oflife will rage to-day;
Tomorrow brings it calm.

support is furnished by sister. who re-

answered, " Your officers can tell You, OF
