A MODERN BELLE.

She sits in her fashionable parlor, and rocks in
her easy chair;
She is clad in silks and satins and jewels are in
her hair;
She winks, and giggles, and simper', and sim.
pers and gigges and winks,
And though she talks but little, It's vast deal
more than she thinks.
She lies bed in the morning. till near the hour
of noon,
Then comes down swapping and snarling, be-
cause she is called so soon,
Her hair is still in papers, her cheeks still
"fresh" with paint;
Remains OF last nights bushes, before she In
tended 10 faint.
She dotes on men unshayen and men with the
flowing hair;
She is eloquent over mustaches, they give such
a foreign air!
She talks of Italian music, and falls in love with
the moon,
And if mouse was to meet her, she. would
sink away in swoon. -,
Her feet are so very little her hands are 30 very
white,
Her Jewels are so very heavy, and her head so
very light;
Her color is made of cosmetics (thoueh this she
will never own,)
Her body's made mostly Of cotton, her heart is
made wholly Of stone.
She falls in love with fellow who swells with
foreign air;
He marries her for her money, she marries him
for his-hair!
One of the best matches-both are we'll mated
in life
She's got fool for husband, he's got fool
for wife.

THE FROZEN BROOK.

This exquisite description is taken from
poem by James r. Lowell, entitled "The
Vision Of Sir Launiai:"
Down swept the chill wind from the mountain
peak,
From the snow five thousand summers old;
On open void and hilltop bleak
1t had gathered all the cold;
And whirld it like sleet on the wanderers cheek;
II carried shivsr everywhere
From the unleafd boughS and pastures bare;
The little brook heard il and built q roof
Meath which he could house him, waterproof
All night by the white stars frosty CLEANS
He eroin'd his arches and match d his beams;
Slender and clear were his crystal spars
AS the lashes of light that trim the stars
He sculptured every summer delight
In his halls and chambers out OF sight;
Sometimes his tinkling waters slipt
Down through frost lcaved, forest crypt;
Long, sparkling aisles of steelstemmed trees
Bending to counterfeit breeze;
Sometimes the roof no tretwork knew
But silyery mosses that downward grew;
Sometimes it was carved it sharp relief
With quaint arabesques of icefern leaf,
Sometimes it was simply smooth and clear
For the gladness of heaven to shine through, and
here
He had caught the nodding bulrush's tops
And hung them thickly with diamond drops,
Which crystald the beams OF moon and sun,
And made star Of every one;
No mortal builders most rare device
Could match this winter.palace OF ice;
Twas as ifevery image that mirrordlay
In his depths serene throug gh the summer day,
Each fitting shadow of earth and sky,
Lest the happy model should be lost,
Had been mimicKed in fairy masonry
By the elfn builders Of the frost.

HE'S COMING.


The following, clipped from the Louis
Journal, is about as sweet . little thir
he kind, as we have ever seen:
He's coming, the blushing rose
Whispers it low to me,
And the starlight hastens with il,
Over the twilight sea,
All trembling the zephyrs tell me,
On the light winds hurrying past,
And my own heart quickly beating,
Coming, coming at last.
The soft.lipped waves Of the ocean,
Gathering at my feet,
Breeze-borne from the coral island,
Murmur the secret sweet.
There's not dew STEPPED blossom,
Or glistening orange tree,
But furnish its leaves glee laden,
10 breathe this joy to me.
List! that is the sound of rowing
Stealing along the air,
must gather around my temples
This weight of braided hair.
And trust to growing darkness,
And evening shadows dim,
To hide with their wings the traces
Of tears I've shed for him.
