From the Sunny South
AUTUMN.

Golden sunshine like network, morn's rosy clouds
rending,
Float down through the blue vapors by shiveriDg
winds sWayed-
Whilst the dsW-drops are quiTering from forest
Beneath the bright cclors by Autumn di isplayed.
The sumaeh and Blaek-gum in crimson robes aaun-
Whilst swift through the Cedars sad, hollow winds
moan,
And sunbeams in showers full trembling and slant
All over the mountains by yellow leaves strown
Wide fields of brown stubble through vallies are
Where once waved so richly the gold headed grain
All now thick with briars, where partridges crying
"Tom White" loud and often mode sorrowful
strain.
Around the fence corners the wild grape is swing
From whence the red wins-drOp SO temptingIy
flows,
Whilst up trough the brsezsss purple thistIes are
hinging,
Their dOWny-liks spectrss like aeecy white SHOWS.
The glad squirrels are scattering hiekOry-nuts in
profusion.
Which with the plump chestnut enriches their store,
The red-haw in clusters, with blusing delusion
Hang out like the coral from old oceans shore.
VI.
Like q huge crimson hambeaux, when day is de-
elininh,
The sun, red and beamless, hangs up in the west,
Amid purple hazes, like curtains enshrining,
The gOld-fooded doorway to mansions Of rest.
And then the clear river, whilst star beams are
playing
Upon its bright bosom, still ripples along,
Whilst the mooE's ghostly shadows through dark
forests sEsying,
Ctms dancing like phantoms to night breeEe's song.
There is now an enehantment all nature enthral-
ing,
That steals DER the senses and sadiens the soul,
Whilst memory unfolding life's spring-tme recall
The Autumn of telling transfgures the whole.
Whilst Hope in lfe's morning paints each little
flower,
The summer enjoyment still makes them more fair,
Til Autumn throws over her mantle Of sorrows
For winter, stern, to shrowd in despair.
But should the spring season be spent in seed-sow-
ing,
And Summer still nourish and cherish the grain,
Then, then though the Autumn bleak winds may
be blaHing,
We know that the Winter will bring US no pain.
