AWAY To THE WOODS.

Avsy into the woodland paths
Aud yield that heart OF thine
To hear the low, sweet oracles
AT every living eh.,re!
The very lowliest OF them all
Doth act an angels part.
And bear a message home from God
Uuto the listening heart!
And thou mayst hear-as Adam he"'u
In Eden's towery shades.
When seraphs talked, At falling eve
Amid its silent glades-
The hallowing rush o. spIN wings
Aud murmur of Immortal strings
Truths such as guide the comet'cars
On fiery mission driven
Or in their beauty light the stars
Along the floor OF heaven;
On. choral theme, below, above;
Oos anthem. near and far,
The daisy singiug in the grass,
As through the cloud The star
And 10 the wind that sweeps the sky
The roses making low reply.
For the meanest wild bud bresihes, to swell
Upon immortal ears
So hear il thou, in grove or dell
The music of the spheres!

From simms' "Areybos, or Songs of the South
EYES, EYES, YE HAVE LED ME TO RUIN.
Eyes, eyes, ye have led me to ruin,
Yet still ye are lovely, and still adore;
Lips, lips, ye have been my undolpg,
Yet stnl would | feed on your sweet evermore'
Ye are fatal to fame. and ! give up ambition,
Content but to breathe in the balm ye lmpart;
To Sigh away life, in q dreamy condition,
Forgetting the soal in the calls OF the heart.
Ewes, ewes, We behold without feeling,
The ruin we make, aud tho ills ye have done;
Lips, lips in the smile DER We stealing,
see but the sense Of the triumph ye've woni-
No tender emotion subdues the expression,
Which Vanity wears Ger a conquest complete;
No tear. starting forth at the nournful confession
Consoles the poor victim that sighs at your feet
Why, why, 80 cruelty SHINING
'Gainst all that ,s lovely in beauty and youth;
Eyes why 30 beautiful, lips why so winning,
If still 80 denying to passion and Truth
know'st thou not, proud one, that proud gifts III
women,
Are precious alone while they kindle with heart
And the moment that beauty iorgets to be human
All the beautiful gifts of the woman depart

ronage and viewing il under every aspect, no es;ab
l,siment in Virginia more fully deserves commends-
ton of our citizens. The proceedings at the last
Annual commencement on tbs 3ed at Lexington.
fully demonstrated that the Cadets of the virginia
Military Institute were disciplined rot alone IN all
the requirements which make II true soldier. but Also
in thoae which characterize a polished gentleman end
sound scholar.
The Annual Address before the Society Of the Alum
nj. on the opening OF the above exercises, was dehv:
cred by Samuel Garland, E=q. of LYnchburg, and OF
Ii the Lexington Gazette speaks as follows
The Address of MIR. Garland was a fine effort, OF
very considerable literary beauty and merit, and was
a bold and able discussion, which went 10 prove the
Superiority, NJ e means OF mental development, of
the study of moral and Intellectual philosophy, ill.,
GLIDING the philosophy Of language, over the study
Of the physical sciences, and especially over that OF
mathematics. The a7guner, bore the marks o, care
ful preparation, and It's positions were sustained By
the sanction and authorities OF the ripest scholars and
The most profound rnatheInaticiaas Of tbs European
schools" The Gazstts also says:
The regular graduation exercises took place on the
5th. The ceremonies Were opened b. the Rev. VIM.
