"She had gathered them; and he,
thoughts now turned to me, her absent
companion. There, on that giddy height
she stood,even on the very verge; calling,
and with outstretched arms beckouing to
me'to come up-or,was she, too, listening
to the ethereal voice calling from the spir-
it land come up! With hair thrown
back,and arms uplifted one; hand holding
the treasured flowers, the other waving
her bonnet in the air, / saw her one
moment,and turned my head in an agony
of fear-the next rushing descent, a
wild shrek, and shapeles mass lay quiv-
ering at the foot of the hanging rock.
Life still lingering moment on her un-
mutilated brow; a smile of recognition
lighted up her countenance; and one look,
full of tenderness and love, met my gaze
Of agony-and l was alone with the
dead"

Man visaged thing thy virgin leaf
To me looks more than deadly pale,
Unknowing what may stain thee yet
poem or n tale.
Who can thy unborn meaning scan?
Can Seer or Sibyl read thee nowY
No seek to trace the fate of man
Writ ON his infant brow.
If il should be In pensive hour
Some sorrow-moving theme try,
All, maiden, how thy tears will fall,
For all 1 doom 10 die
But IL in merry mood touch
Thy leaves then shall the sight Of thee
Sow smiles as thick on rosy lips
As ripples on the sea.
The Weekly Press shall gladly stoop
To bind thee up among its sheaves;
The Daily steal thy shining ore.
To gild its leaden leaves.
Thou hast no tongue, yet thou canst speak,
Till distant shores shall hear the sound;
Thou hast no life, yet thou canst breathe
Fresh life ON all around.
Thou art the arena Of the wise,
The noiseless battle ground Of fame
The sky where halos may be wreathed
Around the humblest name.
Take, then, this treasure to my trust,
To win some idle readers smile,
Then fade and moulder in the dust,
Or swell some bonfre's creakling pile

The Great Eu.;-rp a Failure.


The Great Eastern has flummuxed -
The leading journals record It's trial trip as
"only partial success We all know
what that means. She rolls like y por-
poise or log canoe, the decks leak, the
iron plates don't fit, the decorations crum-
bic and disappear and-the worst re-
mains behind--she can only go little
more than half the speed that was ex-
pected of herl The very best chat can
be got out of her under the most favor
able circumstances Of wind, water, and
coal, is Is miles an honr. So. say some
knowing engineers who were on board,
and who wished and hoped the most favor
able result. These is no Disgusting it,
The great hull is worth all it would bring
for old iron. Every man who knew any
thing knew that she would not go to
America within two months of the explo-
sion. After bemming and having. and
hunbuggiug the public for weeks, the
directors came out to-day and adjourned
sine die--wbch means it is sign she'll
die before she ever makes a successful
commercial voyage. So all the dear crea-
lures in Yankeedoodledom who wanted
to have n quadrille or waltz, and to
show off their pretty ank---beg pardon,
their graceful motions on her broad deck,
will have 10 wait till spring. The direct
ors will soon be in market calling for more
money as | hear that $4,000 ($20o,-
000) will be wanted to complete the re-
pairs and finish the vessel. The fact is,
the engines have not power enough to 60
more than ten or eleven knos an hour.
So here il is after all; the Persia, the
Adriatic, the Vanderbilt, and know not
how many more crack ships will out-run
her in fair race! / predicted this in the
matter of speed, some months ago, in
your columns. Ii is lame and impo-
tent conclusion, but il can't be helped
The ship as grand "show" is just as
great sight, and in course of time | hope
all curious-loying Yankees within 500
miles of the sea-shore will have an OPP
portunity to see her marvellous proper
tions.
Now comes up new chapter in the
drama. 0! the poor stockholders The
stock is gradually going down and down;
down it will 60 to the crack of DOOM
For leading fancy" the shares of the
'' Great Ship Company" will sail about
in the market like lsites as.~i crows on the
7,us On meIrose Abbey. The bears arc
already awful good natured, while the
bulls have had nearly all their horns
fnocked off. Perhaps Mr.. Lever now
will renew his offer made about year
sSo of 100000 for her for a coal hulk
or hs Galway steamers. But really we
need nRt make fun of the poor sharehold-
'rs, Tor b them it is no fun at all. In
