TEARS
Dews of the human heart How little
Yet how much. The pearly drops, that from
The cup of feeling fall, to show that
1t is more than full. The perspiration
0fth soul that tells its struggles. The
Tongue and eye are servants both of
Thought But oft by pride, or circumstances
We guide the tongue, SO that its words
Deceive Not so the eye. The mirror
Of the soul, each thought that onward
Flies to be forgotten, leaves its shadow
There, it is monument to tell
Its character. T'is silent, jet it has
A language stranger far than words.
The sum of human beauty is the eye;
For is it not the home Of tears! T'is
Beauty in its sparkle, in the flash
Of joy, its quick, bright CLEAN of mirth,
But ah, when words, or act, fall heavy on
That great cord of feeling sadness, when
1t drops, its bright look Of joy, and the
Twilight Of pity steals across it
When from it falls, the dewey proof of
Pity, then, then It's beautiful. Then do
We SEQ how near to angels God did
Make US. Emblems of purity, their
Influence falls upon the heart like
Dews upon the flowers, and the buds
OF love bloom sweetly, where they get
This mist Of feeling.

HoRsE SENsE.-It is said that the steam
carriages for highways now coming into
use will not generally frighten horses, il
there is horse in front of them, appearing
to draw them, while, in fact, the propulsion
is all done by steam. Smoke and steam,
and the noise of the blast, may ffighten couu-
try horses that are not used to the commo'
ton OF city streets, but these features should
not be allowed in the streets. The mere
fact Of self propulsion is above the spprecia'
ton of horse, and all that is required is t.
deceive him BY show Of animal power

ter ber as a tender plant, and she is thing
of fancy, waywarduess, and sometimes, folly
annoyed by dewodfop, tretted by the
touch of bI:terAy's wing, and ready TO
faint at the rustic Of beetle; the zephers
are too rough the showers too heavy nd
she is overpowered by the perfume of a
rosebud. But let real calamity come rouse
her atfections-enkinde the fires of her
heart, and mark her then; how her heart
strengthens itself-how strong is her pur-
pose. Place her in the heat of battle-give
her child, a bird, anything she loves OF
pities, to protect-and see her in relative
instance, raising her white arms as shield
as her own blood crimsons her upturned
forehead, praying for life to protect the help

Transplant her in the dark places of earth
awaken her energies to action, and hel
breath becomes healing--her presence :
blessing. She disputes. inch By inch, th'
stride Of the stalking psstilence, when man
the strong and brave, shrinks away pale anC
affrghted. Misfortune haunts her not sh'
wears away life of silent endurance ant
goes forward with less timidity than TO he
bridal, In prosperity she is Il bud full Q
odors, waiting but for the winds of adversi
ty to scatter them abroad-pure gold, valu
able, but uutried in the furnace. Iu short
woman is lniracle--a mystery, the centr
from which radiates the great charm of ex
istence.
