For the True D, THE EEARTS-EASE.

 Spring-lovely season of the year-is come: Dark Winter stopped and gave frown severe To see q maiden clothed in draperv Of the lightest greenr His step so naughty, His manners so cold, they chilled the thin clad Maid and caused the blood to curdIe in Her veins, but courage to Der rescue come And her address to him she paid, he knew Not how to do, but soon like some crusty Bachelor, who, when with charms of fair ones Beset beats quick retreat. so did he From the sweet caress and witchng beauty Of Times fair daughter; and victorious As they are always sure to be, she took her Seat and now she reigns a queen triumphant: Her step so soft. filled with modesty And grace she wins the love of all and makes Their hearts bound light and free with joy and glee She walks with magic ease and beewels With her beauteous train the mountain, hill. The valley and the glen and leaves untouched No spot
 The fair being of all that's " Good and beautiful" to man she comes, and Scatters here and there, flowers rich and rare, To cheer him on his weary journey home: But she brings no bud, no gem half so dear As the modest violet is to me; This tiowret peering up from every Nook and corner from meath the messy banks So mild to gaze upon the ether vault Bids me unlock the sacred chamber of Memory, and oh! there l find thoughts long Garncrcd up and in the mirror Behold friend; the playmate of my youth- Tome this little bud is forever Tuning as if to speak it's emblem to I l.
 Like That bud srringing up in lonely place, and Beside the lufty mound, peeping through the Ground smiling 'pon every scene a gentle Airthe same, the time that's gone by is Rushing to me ever and as the mild hcarts ease speaks & forget me net" so every Action of affection breathes OCT my heart And gently tells me of days forever Past and prompts me never to forget that Youthful friends though struggles severe and long May come to rend the affections from their Object, yet every deed speaks too loudly " Forget me not"
 When the silver crested "Queen of Night spreads wide oer this silent eartl Her refulgent rays love to sit and Watch that beautiouS germ of paradise As Its gaze Is upward turned to view The sparkling gems of heaven and offers To its Maker humble adoration All hisown then it bids me look to that World of spirit bliss, where life's eternal And perfect happiness is not expressed, In '' all is well" but peace of soul is found Near Gods righteous thrown, yes, then it tells me There is joy for me that < all is welln if trust to him and not myself alone: It breathes to my troubled bosom words of Kindness, words of consolation again It speaks its emblem forth and l know though All the world remember not, there is a Maker, Father, who will |" forget me not"

To Boy at Play.
 BY JOHN CARTER Play on! the happy sun is bright Upon thy path to- pay, The shadows will come with the nigbt- But that is far away, And there is time to stay; ne envious night must stop its flight Till thou hast done thy play. 'o on among the birds that sing, And sing as loud as they; Thou hast time enough to enjoy thy sprino- Oh, let thy song be gay Play on, play on to- day. Time rolls along, and a merry song Cannot be sung alway. An no! but thou art happy now, Beneath the laughing sky: There is no mem'ry on thy brow, No future in thiae eye Then let such thoughts go by I'll take spray from thy wild bouquet, And leave thee with q sigh.
