that the steamer was aground. A loud

But resistance would have been madness;
so thickly did the American sailors crowd

9 Or 10 marines, well armed will, Musket
and bayonet, and who drove the BoniyBell's

that precious guide, Mr.. lack Foster, who
had recovered from the effects Of his Knock

upon Pritchard, who was struggling in the
hands of his captors.

There's something in noble boy,
A brave, fFee-heaFted, careless one,
With his unchecked, unbidden joy;
His dread Of books and, love Of fun,
And in his clear and ready smile,
Unshaded by thought Of guile,
And unreprcssed by sadness,
Which brings me to my childhood back,
As IL / trod It's very track,
And felt its very gladness.
And yet Il Is not In his play,
When every trace Of thought Is lost,
And not when you would call him gay,
That his bright presence thrills me mCst.
His shout may ring upon the bill,
His voice be echoed in the hall,
His merry laugh like music trill,
And ! IN sadpess hear II ALT
For, like the Wrinkles on my brow,
scarcely notice such things now;
But when, amid the earnest game,
He stops, as Il the music heard,
And, needless Of bis shouted name,
As Of the carol Of bird,
Stands gazing on the empty air,
As II some dream were passing there;
Tis then that on NJ 1Ir1 I Iook,

And len me silent, sad, and still,
And threw upon my brow
A holier and q gertlef cast,
That was too innocent 70 last.
Tis strange how thoughts upon . child

And when his pulse Is boating wild,
And life itself Is In excess
When foot and hand, and ear and eye,

How in bis heart viii spring
A feeling. whose mysterious thrall

And on its silent wing,
How, with the clouds, he'll aoat away,
As wandering and as lost as they.
