led the AIR with Il thuusaiI mr!n,'it
-ot the balnv odours Of the freshly

l'Drth their incense 10 til, God of nay
his attention appeared to be dirtctc,
'nIy to those spots which tctokcncd h.,
Ntn habltatlnn. Having already passcC
I~everal mansions which he scrutenizc,
with an eager look, HE youth mend
I"d his pace as though hc had been
lmpclled by some new motive, and mu!-
Injured in tone that to an ear Less ;,t-
tcntlve than that Of historian would
have been inandible:-"I must look out
for mine prcak-fast"
1t was morning. The gentle Chrecn-
Oh-Leen had walked forth to minrc
with the odour Of the flowers, the sweet
carolling Of the birds, and the activity
that pervaded the newly awakened
world, the silent alteration with which
>-lch an exuhcrance Of natures gifts fill
ed her grateful heart. If language fail
led to describe the beauties of the scene
Of our story-if we have rcfraincd with
conscious incapacity from conveying to
onr fair readers an idea Of the surpass-
ing beauty of our heroine how shall we
hope to signify by any characters that
the ear can be cognizant Of the sublime
ard raptnrous thoughts that filled her
elevated soul. The talent Of an Halevy
Of Doll;zetti would alone be adequate to
his undertaking, and sonata upon this
subject, would be the chefd 'nuvre Of
their creation
As she stood near q bank of vcrbenas
of every hue whilst the soft breeze for
getting it's daIIiancc with the rose and
pcrfumcd with the fragrance of it's hum
,ircd loves coquettcd with the flowing |
trcsses that only half concealed her
graceful shoulders the advancing foot |
steps Of our youthful hero broke upon
her ear and she started as the timid
tawn is wont into posture Of incf,ablc
,ractfnlncss.
The youth spokc:-"lsh tere any toss
niss?" ~ VI
Dogs" replied the maiden; here Fan
.hcttc;' aud at her call beautiful tia
ian greyhound leaped to the side of his
MISTRESS.
The youths suspense appeared re-
icvcd at the sight Of tile gentle animal
hat frisked upon the soft grass at his
cct; and relieving his shoulders of their
'urdcnsomc cncumbrance lie proceeded
o loosen the cords tnat bound the pack
&c as he inquired
"Dos|1 the pooty miss want any chew
Try, combs or rbans to day?'
The eyes Of the fair creature beamed
With delight as the young traveller dis
layed his wares and calling to young
cgrcss who had been making an ex-
loratory tour for hens nests i'll tlle longIl
rass that covered the partcrre, she ex-
Iaimcd: Come, Celeste, and look at
ne store tricks this ycntlcnan's got" ,
If a hundred hens had cackled in the
ew- -bcsprinkcd hcrbaSc the faithful
rrvant would not have delayed an in
tant in obcying the command Of her |
onthful mistress. With an clacrity that s
'ould silence all the haran-ucs Of aboli-
onists upon the unwilling servitude Of ,
le African race, she flew to her side ,
I'D crouch;ng at her feet cast glance
eager curiosjty at the diversified dis {
lay of articles before her. -,
Again must the painters art be invo- !;
ed to portray the scene that we feel t
owercss IA describe The Imagination
the fair reader must he content to l.
we'll vaguely upon some group in East
IN story, wherein some matchlcss Cir
assian beauty with her Ethiopian at =
,ndants are inspecting the wares of /,
,mo merchant of STAMFORD or Of Fee. @
