GENTLE ANNIE.

Thou wilt come no more, gentle Annie,
Like 6owercthy spirit did depart,
Thou art gone, alas like the many.
That have bloomed in the summer Of my heart.
Chorus-Shall we never more behold thee,
Never hear thy winning voice again,
When the spring-time comes, gentle Annie
When the wild flowers are scattered Ger the plain
We have roamed and loved mid the bowers,
When thy downy cheeks were in bloom,
Now stand alone mid the flowers,
While they mingle their perfumes DER thy tomb
Chorus-Shall we never mere, &c.
All, the hours grow sad while ponder,
Near the silent grave where thou art laid,
And my heart bows down when wander,
BY the streams and meadows we strayd.
Chorus-Shall we never more, &C.

THE OLD FARM. GATE.

Where where is the gate that once served to divide
The elm-shaded lane from the dusty ad-side?
l like not this barrier galy bedight,
With its glittering latch and its trels of white,
II is seemly, own--yet, OIL dearer by far
Was the red-rusted hinge, and the weather warped
Here are fashion and form of modernized date,
But I'd rather have looked on the old farm-gate
Twas here where the urchin's would gather to play
In the shadows of twilight or sunny mid day;
For the stream running nigh, and the hillocks of
sand,
Were temptations no dirt-loving rogue could with
stand,
But to swing on the gate rails, to Chamber and ride,
Was the utmost of pleasure, Of glory, and pride;
And the car of the victor or carriage of state
Never carried such hearts as the old farm4gate
Twas here where the mllers son paced to and fro,
When the moon was above and the glow-worm be-
low;
Now pensively leaning, now twrling his stick,
While the moments grew longer and his heartthrobs
grew quick.
Why, why did he linger restlessly there,
With church-going vestment and sprucely combed
hair?
He loved, oh he loved, and had promised to wait
For the one he adored at the old farm-gate
Twas here where the gray-headed gossips would
meet;
And the falling of markets, or goodness of wheat
This field lying fallow-that heifer just bought
Were favorite themes for discussion and thought,
The merits and faults of neighbor just dead
The hopes OF couple about to be we'd
The Parliament dongs-the bill and debate
Were all canvassed and weighed at the old farm
gate.
Twas over that gate taught Pincher to bound
With the strength ofa seed and the grace of hound
The beagle might hunt aud the spaniel might swim,
But none could leap over that postern like him.
When Dobbn wss saddled for matchmaking trip,
And the quickly pulled willow branch served for
whip,
Spite of Juggling and tugging he'd stand for his
freight,
While climbed his back from the old farm-gate.
Ts we'll to pass portals where the pleasure and fame
May come winging our moments and gliding our
name;
But give me the joy and the freshness of mind,
When away on some sport-the old gate slammed
behind
Pve listen to music, but none that could speak
In such tones to my heart the teeth-setng creak
That broke on my when the night had worn late,
And the old ones came home through the old farm
gate
OH fair is the barrier taking its place,
But it darkens picture my soul longed 10 trace.
i sigh to behold the rough staple and hasp,
And the rails that my growing hands scarcely could
clasp.
Oh how strangely the warm spirit grudges TO part
With the commonest relic linked to the heart;
And the brightest of fortune-the kindliest fate
Would not Danish my love for the old farms late.
