Br MISS JESSIE s'NuNT.

You kissed me My head had dropped low on
your breast,
With feeling of pleasure and infinite rest,
While the holy emotions my tongue dared not
speak,
Flashed up like flame, from my heart to my
check
Your arms held me fast-Oh your arms were so
bold,
Heart beat against heart to their passionate hold
Your glances seemed drawing my soul through
my eyes,
As the sun draws the mist from the sea to the
skies;
And your lips clung to mine till prayed in my
bliss,
They might never unclasp from that rapturous
kiss
You kissed me- My heart, and my breath, and
my will,
In delirious JOY for the moment stood still
Life had for me then no temptations-no charms
No vista Of pleasure-outsde of your arms;
And were this instant an angel possessed
OF the glory and peace that are given the blest,
| would fling my white robes unrepiningly down,
And tear from my head its most beautiful crown,
TO nestle once more in the haven of rest,
With your lips upon mine, aud my head on your
breast

sion which occurred II few days since, at the
Soda Springs of New Almadon. The fountain, q
Capacious one, Is enclosed in u wall and covered
by an ornamental pavilion, with steps leading
down within few feet Of the water A lady
visitor had descended the steps at the suggestion
Of her husband, TO observe the curious effect of
the carbonc acid aud other gases which bubble
up from the spring AS she stopped forward and
reached down to agitate the waters, she inhaled
80 large quantity of the mephtlc vapors as to
bacome instantly gddy aud lose her hold There
upon, in the language OF ST. John, an angel
went down into the pool, and troubled the wa
ter" nightly. Her husband, who flew to her
relief, was likewise very much troubled at this
new position of things. How he managed we
don't exactly know, as the well is q very narrow
one but according to our informant, "hc had to
siosh her about considerable, and tramp her clothes
down under water till they was all good and wet
so as he could turn her and fetch her out head

NOBLE SENTIMENTS true heart has given
expression of its generous nature in the following
beautiful, noble sentiment
"Never desert friend when enemies gather
round him when sickness falls on the heart
when the world is dark and cherries is the time
to try friend. They who turn from the scene
of distress betrNy their hypocrisy, and prove that
interest only moves them. If you have a friend
who loves you aud studies your interest and hap
piness, be sure to sustain him in adversity. Let
him feel that his former kindness is appreciated.
and that his love is not thrown away. Real
fidelity may he rare but it exists in the heart.
Who has not seen and felt its power? They deny
its worth who never loved friend or labOred to
make friend happy p'
