RING THE BELL.

"Hurra! for worthy Breckinridge,"
Says one who writes Of Lane;
But never will they "build bridge
To save our country's fame"
For list their poet is at fault,
In both rhyme and metre,
While swiftly up the river Salt.
Tends ev'ry Loco bleater.
"Sience that dreadful BELL" say they,
That frights US from the spoils,
Which long, SO long, has been the prey,
Of our united tells.

MISCELLANEOUS READING.

MlUSU MMEh. r.
Around this lovely valley rise
The purple hills of Paradise.
Oh! softly on yon banks Of haze,
Her rosy face the Summer lays!
Becalmed along the azure sky,
The argosies of cloudland lie,
Whose shores with many q shining rift
Far off their pearl-white peaks uplift.
Through all the long midsummer day
The meadow sides are sweet with hay.
7 seek the coolest sheltered seat
Just where the field and forest meet
Where grow the pine trees tall and bland,
The ancient oaks sustere and grand,
And fringy roots and pebbles fret
The ripples of the rivulet.
watch the mowers as they 60 III avg
Through the tall grass, white -sleeved row,
With even stroke their scythes they swing,
In tune their merry whetstones ring;
Behind the nimble youngsters run
And toss the thick swaths in the sun;
The cattle Craze, while warm and still,
Slopes the broad pasture, basks the hill.
And bright when summer breezes break,
The green wheat crinkles like lake.
The butterfly and humble. bee
Come to the pleasant woods with me;
Quickly before me runs the quail,
The chickens skulk behind the rail,
High up the lone woo od-pigeon sits,
And the woodpecker pecks and aits.
Sweet woodland music sinks and swells,
The b-soklet rings its tinkling bells.
The swarming insects drone and hum,
The partridge beats his throbbing drum.
The squirrel leaps among the boughs,
And chatters in his leafy house
The oriole flashes by; and look!
Into the mirror of the brook,
Where the vain blue-bird trims his coat,
Two tiny feathers fall and float.
As silently, as tenderly,
The down of peace descends on me.
Oh, this is peace! I have no need
Of friend to taak, of book to read:
A dear Companion here abides;
Close to my thrilling heart be hides;
The holy silence is His Voice:
I lie and listen, and rejoice m
