Ill be True to Thee.

BY LILLY LAExsPUR.
Thy bark is on the wave.
Thy home is on the deep,
The winds aud waters rave
Around you while you sleep;
Aud though you wander fur
Upon tho distant sea,
ThUu'lt be my guiding star,
And I'll be true to thee.
When storm-clouds gather round,
Aud lightnings flash on high,
My trembling heart Is raised
Above the stormy sky;
And every morn and even,
In sorrow or njoy,
kneel and pray TO Heaven
To guard my sailor.boy.
When evening shadows fall,
Aud twilight breezes sweep,
watch the bright stars ALL
That shine upon the deep;
And voice that well know
Comes trembling o'er the lee,
In whispers soft and low,
1t speaks alone of thee.
When loving eyes impart
The love they dare not speak,
My ever faithful heart
Doth tiny dear image Keep;
And watch the moOnbeams dance,
While they glimmtr DER the sea
And heed no thrilling glance,
For ! am true to thee.
Among the leafy trees
A breath is stirring now,
Perchance this same soft breeze
Just famed his snowy brow;
And fancy tits tone
Borne from the dark blue sea-
Oh sailor-boy Tm lone,
Far, far away from thee.
Thou peaceful evening breeze,
Haste to my sailor boy;
Linger not 'mong the trees,
But bear some words of Joy;
Speed, gentle evening air,
Unto the ocean blue,
And whisper, when !oure there
The one you left is true"

with Gen, Cass, and was coolly told that it would
be prudent for him to stay at home, ss Govern
ment would not undertake to guarantee him the
protection as u citizen of the United Sta les, and
that he might be impressed into the French

He has, in consequence, given up his design
Of Visiting Europe, and returned TO this city,

taken in believing that he would be entitled to
respect anywhere on the globe as a citizen of the

The value of social life has been unduly mag
