A LAUGH.-How much of character lies
in laugh. 1t is in fact the cipher-key, Of
tentimes wherewith we decipher man. As
a late writer observes You known no man
until you have heard him laugh--till you
know how and when he will laugh There
are occasions-there are humors-when a
man with whom you have been long familiar,
will quite startle you by breaking out into a
laugh which comes manifestly right from the
heart before. And in many heart sweet
angel slumbers unseen, until some happ,,
moment awakens it."

Written for the Green Mountain f
Phantoms.
BY CELIA.

THE intensely bright, the beautiful, the dread
Phantoms of heart and brain -
A meteor crossed my sky and brightly shone,
nluming all my heart with kindly glow;
And darker seemed the world when it was gone
Yet I alone have missed its light below!
Bright stars upon my pathway
All dazzlingy have shone;
But my heart is fondly turning
To the ray SO Swiftly burning
So swiftly quenched and gone!
A music-strain from more harmonious spheres
Awaked me with the sweetest lay e'er sung;
A trembling dirge-note ended it in tears
hand unseen had moved the chords among!
Harmonious sounds have thrilled me
With rapture all untold
But my heart is backward turning
With deep and ceaseess yearning
For that melody of old!
A bird of glorious plumage sought my bower,
And nestled to my side in trembling joy;
Its gentle presence charmed lonely hour
The cruel fowler saw but to destroy!
Gay pinions oft have folded
Within my ark of rest;
But my heart is sadly turning
With dropping wing is mourning
DER lorn and stricken nest
rose beside my path to beauty sprang,
To royal beauty and unrv&lled grace;
While yet the bee its low sweet birth hymn sang,
Twas folded in the Frost-king's chill embrace =
Sweet flowers spring forth in beauty.
My daily path to gem
But my heart is ever turning,
With the inner eye discerning
But a on broken stem!

Life.

The days of Infancy are all dream,
How fair, but oh how short they seem
IT'S Life's sweet opening Spring!
The days Of Youth advance:
The bounding limb the ardent glance,
The kindling soul they bring
1t is Life's burning Summer time.
Manhood-matured with wisdom's fruit,
Reward of Learning's deep pursuit
Succeeds as Autumn follows Summer time.
And that, and that, alas! goes by:
And what ensues? The languid eye,
The failing frame, the soul o'ercast;
IT'S WINTERS sickening, whitening blast,
Life's blessed season--for it is the last.

Sonnet

The loved are never lonely; round them still
The air is rife with spiritual essences,
Whose hauntings-as about sweet flowers the bees
Pay musical obeisance, and fulfill
Fond tasks and welcome, though invisible.
Nor are the loving lonely: like far seas
Where man is not, yet living things the breeze
And pregnant wave inhabt, they have shed
Deep in their hearts, howeer remote from life,
Images of the absent and the dead,
And therefore know not loneliness! Alas
For him who loves not, is not loved-the strife
OF aimless action only his! To pass
DER EARTH like frivolous words forgotten soon as said

DIR. JUDsoN's BURMESE TEsTAMENT.--The
story of the preservation of this precious
work, related by Mrs. Judsol might adorn
the page Of romance. 1t was taken to Ava
in manuscript; and when Mr.. Judson was
thrown into prison, was secretly sewed up by
his wife in cushion too hard and unsightly
to tempt the cupidity even of his jailors, and
used by him as pillow. When at the close
of seven months, he and his fellow-sutferers
were thrust into the inner prison, the old pill
low fell to the share of one Of the keepers,
but, finding il probably too hard for his use,
he threw it back, and it came once more into
its owners hands, 1t was again lost when he
was driven to Oung-pen-la; and, being strip
ped by one of his attendants of the mat
which was tied around it, the roll of hard
cotton was again flung into prison. Here it
was found by Moung Ing, who took it home
as memorial of his teachers without sus-
peeting its priceless contents. Several months
after the manuscript, which now makes part
Of the Burmese Bible, was found within un-
injured.

And the evening is beautiful! and the
heavens are full of stars, mirroring their
silvery faces in the snow; and the still woods
are iewelled with ice diamonds, and waiting
waEeless the rising moon. And the North
ern Lights, like Zephyrs zoned with rainbows,
are Waiting on the pearly pavements of the
polar sky. And the. mountains look like
waves of silvery sea, rising hcaven-ward
to greet the stars; and the sky like sea of
molten sapphire, with its golden tresses droop-
ing fondly on the brow of the mountains. 1t
is beautiful: too beautiful to shut out Il our
sight. Let us all 60 out of doors and read a
few paragraphs In the album of the heavens.
For this fir,nament is the Great Album of the
Creator, and the suns are the syalables and
the stars are the letters with which he regis
tiers his handiworks- And the first man, on
the first evening of this new creation, looked
up into the same sky-record, and tried to
read the Illuminated manuscript Of his Maker.
And the generations before the Flood gazed
at these same stars; and men that saw the
evenings of nearly q thousand years on the
earth, looked up at these same golden eyes of
heaven, which now looks down on US; and
they called them by name, and by their light
they drove their Aocks to new pastures in the
old world And when the fountains of the
great deep were broken up, and the windows
of heaven were opened, and the floods came,
and long night of darkness, the good
man in the ark remembered the stars that
studded the armament in his boyhood's time,
and the names they were called by among
the fathers of the human race, And when
the deep, black clouds rolled away, they shone
again, though floating over the shoreless waste
of water, without compass, chart, or helm
There they were just at they were set in the
sky OF the morning Of creation. The waters,
that had washed from the earth every trace
of mans existence had not quenched one Of
the lesser lights " of heaven, or moved it a
hair from its place. The splendid Orion had
not lost jewel from his belt; neither the
deluge nor the darkness had " loosed his
bands" He walked the same king and WELD
ed the same sceptre among the stars this
evening, as in the FIRST evening that mantled
the earth. The fiery Betelguese shone with
the same red brilliancy, and the same sharp
eyed Rigel gowed in the left foot, celestial
diamond Of the first water. There was a
little Pleiades, and the great Dog-Star, and
the Scorpion, trailing its gems along the
southern sky; and the Eleven Stars, that the
young Joseph saw in his dream; and the
stars, which the first born child Of Adam saw
in his infancy. These were the home stars,
to Noah; they were all that was left of the
drowned world, that he had seen and loved in
his youth. He knew not whether the sailless,
unruddered ark had born him; the tallest
mountain ON the earth was buried deep be-
meath the waters; everything had been swept
away but the stars he had learned by name,
perhaps in tent Of his grandfather Methus
selah, who remembered Adam. And he
felt himself at home.-Elihu BurriH.
