THE LAST SENIIMENT.
DEDICATED TO MSS MARY J.. A., OF WHEELING.
In silence and tearsI sit by The shore
OF noiseless stream, that Gltdes TO the sea-
And dream Of one, who will come no more sitt
From the my stical waves OF Eternity:
I think of tI,e past, and my soul Is tired
or life that has lasted much too long; l.-
For feel that, OF all my heart desired,
Naught Is left worthy that lie To prolong.
Only in dreams she come to me now,
With her words of love and looks ~ delishti
Bnt the mo rfIns sun will scatter each vow 81
And quickly dtsolve the visions OF night
I1e1ordbLe dedth! Sad Lstbe sound
or thy most terrible fo5tfal to-day;
And the hopes OF life may never rebound
- Before this touch of relentless decay.
The world will look on. n marvel that one
So young and SO gay, should ever have care;
But the hopes OF life, ere they areg gone
Leave us the refuge Of smiles in despair
So unto the last, III cling to the hope
That my life Is not so dark asst seemsi
And at each moment of grief I'll invoke
The snace of her sweet face in my dreamS
- - ~
In silence md tears 1 sit by the shore
OF n noiseIess stream that G1ides to the sea;
p And dream OF who will come more,
From the mystical waves of Eternity.

A PASSENGERS LOG.

1 suppose every passenger when about to make a
sea-voyage, is comforted with the assurance that
his ship stands al at Loyd's and is built of Brit
ish oak. l can, at all events, say, from my expe,
rience. that almost every e~migrant with whom ]
have come in contact infallibly believes that the
vesse. in which he is to embark is something un.
usual as TO strength, and at some time in its histo-
ry had made the ''sbortess passage" on record
The passengers who embarked for New York in
the Welsh Mouu:aineer, on the 11th of June 10
che year of our Lord 1851, could not be comforted
by the latter assurance. for it was her frs. voy-
age; but the Al at Loyd's and the British oak
we're thrust into the minds of passengers by large
placards and persevering agents. Moreover, all
C-went out to see her launched, for never be-
fore in the maratime history of the town had she
had the honor of launching q bark Of 1000 tons
burden. As L had taken a cabin passage in this
vessel, and had watched her building, from the
setting of the keel to the mailing of the deck
planks, l went to see how she would tax to the
water. All C-were, however, destined to be
disappointed; for, alter a great Deal of hammering
and shouting, the ship moved on the slips as if
about to take to the water CALAMITY, But the shou-
ting, of the crowd suddenly stopped by her stop
ping abruptly when halfway down, and refusing
to stir. A little knot of old sailors shook their
heads ominously, and declared that they never
knew a ship make a passage that stuck in the
launching. The sequel will prove whether they
were right. She was, however. got into the wa
ter e day or two after. though no one was there to
see; and a little while afterwards a busy m
towed her into the open channel.
/ suppose every one who leaves Old England in
the distance has a friend to say Goodbye" to,
and so the tug was loaded with anxious parents
and nervous lovers. As was going out to re-
cruit shattered health, l formed no execution to
the rule. and must confess that when we rounded
the roadstead ~headland. its scenes of alabaster
danced ftfully through farewell tears. II was
pleasant to Is all that we did not at once 90 into
open sea, but passed the Channel between tho
shores with 9 favoring breeze. Old England dis
appeared at last in the fading light of the next
day, and We we're left to tho consolation that the
nugh waves that dashed past us broke unon
home shores. After q while. on that same even.
'as' the light streamed on the deck from the
toono-aoass window and looking in, I saw the
captain Studying his chart. and marking out oor
pain upon the high seas. / had leisure for the

agow, bound for St. Johns, New Brunswick,
without a child's finger being hurt. Often, when
a bOstload started from the Welsh Mouutaineer we
lost sight Of them altogether In the trough Of the
sea; but as often we could hear the cheers Of the
sailors giving courage to their trembling cargo.
The rest Of the voyage had nothing specially in
teresting. We made the first landmark at night
| shall not soon forget il. We we're growing
somewhat uneasy in the fogs and cross-currents Of
the Bay ofFunday but in the night the fog clear
ed of, leaving a clear dark air. The IL O'Clock
watch had hardly taken their station when the
word was given, eight on the starboard bows"
1t grew lighter as we neared it, and seemed to our
grateful sight as ii some spirit Of mercy held out
calmly its torch Of light and love above q thousand
storms that ioared at its feet an eternal welcome
to poor tempost-driven wanderers.
Next morning | vas awaked by a sound like
the driving of a hundred hammers at the ship l
jumped out of my cabin in alarm; but a rough
kind voice / had often heard before said 1.-THE an
Choir, sir--the anchor" l dressed hastily, and go
ing on deck, saw the city OF St. Johns lying in
the light OF a bright July morning. The angry
waves had ceased, and broke in gentle ripples
with q home-sound upon the vessels side.
Our fret business when on shore was to make
public in the newspapers our grateful thanks to
the two captains to whom under Providence, we
owed our lives. l know not what has become
Of either Of them. l have not seen them since
my return to England but if this brief sketch
should be seen by them, let it serve as assur-
ance that the kindness of the captains and crews
of both vessels will ever be held in remembrance
by the living freight the old Lesmahagow bore
into the harbor of st. Johns.
