THE THREE LESSONS.

THE THREE LESSONS.
There bloom'd low'r, of beauty bright
Near to woodland fair
With JOY it drank the beams Of light,
And breathed the morning air.
Smiling oeneath the silY'ry aocd,
Which Ger its beauty fell
Naught to the fow'r came but good,
Twas sweetest in the dell.
Each stcm-cach leaf held 6rm, erect,
With grace its lovely form,
And only how'd with due respect,
When passed the angry storm.
Sweet fow'r! lesson dost thou show,
To man, by nature proud, t.n
Could be but learn to bow thus low,
When breaks the threat'ning cloud.
Humility, that grace 80 rare,
Thus taught him by how'r,
His soul might save from many snare,
In dark temptations hour;
Full many blast would sweep Ger head,
In vain its fury spend,
Which be had view'd with hopeless dread,
Could he but learn to bend.
The howr sweet, its fragrance shed ge
Through the bright Summer hours,
When Winter came it soon was dead,
With all the other fow'rs.
Each withered leaf was swept away,
And nought could there be seen,
Through the cold Winters dreamy stay,
To prove such fow'r bad been.
The earth as wrapp'd in winding sheet,
No trace of verdure show'd
No sound the list'ning ear could greet,
Where joyous streams had fow'd.
Lock'd in embrace, so icy cold,
It's babblings all were stiIl'd,
No longer on its waters rolpd,
By Winters touch twas child.
But Spring once more her pov'r sssum'd
And broke its prison bands.
Nature her wonted charm resumed
Ger near and distant lands.
Then wak'd the fow'r beneath her spell,
And bursting from its tomb
Though doom'd, forgotten, long to dwell
Amid decay and gloom.
Now it appeared, again to smile
As sweety AZ before
The heart of sadness to beguile.
That long, dark winter Ger.
IIere-!earn lesson of the grave:-
Each mortal there must lie,
No earthly powr, no prayer can save,
'Tis wrtten-we must die
Swept from the earth, as wither'd leaves,
Fond memories will be-
The friend, who bending Ger us grieves,
In time, laid low as We;
Doom'd, too, with us, to be forgot
Oblivion's wing must fall,
Except the few of higher lot,)
Alike upon us all.
The man Of noble deeds. whose name
Is borne on ev'ry breath,
Cannot mption--rescuc claim,
From the great tyrant-Desth
But as the how'r, its prison bed,
Left at the call of Spring,
So will the body Of the dead
Know an awakening.
More sure twill wako than hidden fow'r,
Whose germ decay may reach,
Though human pride the grave deyour,
Thus doth the Scripture teach
When the last trumpet sound shall fall
Upon the startled ear,
Not those alone who liye-but sll
The buried dead, shall hear;
Then cloth'd the soul shall be again,
In its once CHERISHED frame,
Sweet joy to know, or longing vain,
To bear midst endless shame.

"A REMARKABLY FISE ALE.--Mr. Davison's
successor in the Washington Brewery, corner of
and 9th streets, Mr.. Colineau, is now manufac-
turing Xxx ale and porter and brown stout, all Of
which reflect infinite credit on his establishment.
His ale compares favorably, indeed, with the best
Philadelphia and Albany ales, being, according
10 our taste, muck more like the best English and
Scotch ales than those imported from either OF
those cities. If he continues to produce so supe-
rior an article, he will shortly make reputation
for his brewery surpassing that Of any Northern
establishment"
