The Eye of Gray.

s'Poets have praised the eye of black,
And eulogized the melting blue,
Have laid their fancy on the rack,
To celebrate each varied hue;
But not one single word they say
About the pleasing eye of gray.
81 like the mild gray eye-the faces
Which most loved had eyes of gray,
And if each glance emits no blazes,
As those of black, | know that they
Possess charm that can subdue
Hearts that withstood both black and blue
''rhe face is. fair, with eyes of black
With eyes of gray is still more fair,
For what the last in life may lack,
Is made up by the softer air
Impaired to the lovely faces,
That gray and blue so often graces.
''The black may pierce the gazer through,
And make the lightest spirits dance
Our souls may melt before the blue,
Or die away in pleasures trance
But will still my homage pay
TO the enchanting eye of gray.
"The eye that kindly beams on me,
Shall always meet a like return;
And will bend the ready knee,
Where'er those glances meet or burn,
And idolize the lovely hue,
Whether Of gray, or black, or hue"

The DOMESTIC ANIMALs.-In the re-
hottest ages of antiquity, into which the
torch of history throws not the faintest
CLEAN of light, a small number, selected
from the all but numberless races of the
lower animals, were adopted by domestic
cation into the family Of man. So skill
full and exhaustive was this selection, that
three thousand years of experience, dur
ing which Europe and America have
been settled by civilized races of men,
have not added to the number. 1t is
somewhat humbling to the pride of our
rational nature to consider how much of
our civilization rests on this partnership;
how helpless we should be, deprived Of
the horse, the OK, the COW, the sheep, the
swine, the goat, the ass, the reindeer, the
dog, the cat, and the various kinds Of
poultry = Everett.

Sheridan bought large quantity of
wine of his merchant. 81 will owe you
the amount" he said, when the bill was
presented, eff it is agreeable to you" "Oh
certainly, certainly Mr. Sheridan, as long
as you choose sir, Some time elapsed; the
creditor grew impatient and threatened
his debtor with writ, 'Why how the
devel can | pay you, sir" said Richard
Brinsley' ''and keep to our agreement? 1t
was understood that should owe YOU
and how canssI possibly owe you if | pay
the money!"
A drunkard upon his death bed de-
manded glass of water before receiving
Divine consolation. "Upon ones death
bed" he observed, ''it is but right to be
reconciled with our mortal enemy!'
Men will wrangle for religion, write
for it, die forit, anything but live for it.
How near are two hearts when there is
no vice between them
He who sacrifices honor to ambition,
burns painting and keeps the ashes.
Vice would have little influence with
out those attractions which it steals from
virtue.
Negligence is the rust of the soul, that
corrodes her best resolutions.
Trihes often fill up the measure of hui
man character and actions.

1t is an easy thing to be a controversial
list, but to be candid seeker for truth
that is not so easy. To play the lawyer
on one side Or another is not difficult ;
though it may give scope to finer talents
than are needed to find the right without
either logic or learning. The highest
happiness as well as the best philosophy
is to see good in all, and to believe 1t
where we cannot find it. There is nothing
truer than this" God admits into his
courts no advocates hired to see but one
side of a question !"
