Sea Shore.
BY R. W. EMERSON.

heard, or seemed to hear, the chiding sea
Say, 'Pilgim, why SO late and slow to conner
Am not always here, thy summers homer
Is not my voice thy music, morn and ever
My breath thy healthful climate in the heats
MY touch thy antidote, my bay thy bath !
Was ever building like my terraeesi
Was ever couch magnificent as mine
Lie on the warm rock-edges, and there learn
A little hut suffices like town.
make your sculptnred architecture vain,
Vain beside mine.
Lo here is Rome, and Nineyeh, and Thebes,
Karnak, and Pyramid, and Gianta.stairs,
Half piled or PROSTATE; and my newest slab
Older than all thy race.
"Behold the sea,
The opalne, the plentiful and strongl
Yet beautiful as is the rose in June.
Fresh as the trickling rainbow in July;
Sea full of food, the nourisher of kinds,
Purger of earth and medicine of men;
Creating sweet climate by my breath,
And, in my mathematic ebb and flow,
Giving hint of that which changes not.
Rich are the Sea-gods; who gives gifts but they
They grope the sea for pearls, but more than
pearls
They pluck force thence, and give ii 10 the wise.
For every wave is health to D@dalus,
Wealth to the cunning artist who can work
This matchless strength. Where shall we find,
o waves
A load your Atlas shoulders cannot lifti
81 with my hammer pounding eyermore
The rocky coast, smte Andes into dust,
Strewing my bed, and, in another age.
Rebuild continent of better men.
Then unbar the doors my paths lead out
The exodus of nations l disperse
Men to all shores that front the hoary main.
"I, too, haYe arts and sorceries;
Illusion dwells forever with the wave;
know what shells are laid. Leave me to deal
With credulous, imaginative man.
For though he scoops my water in his palm,
A few rods off he deems it gems and clouds.
Planting strange fruits and sunshine on the
shore,
make some coast alluring, some lone isle,
To distant men who must go there or die"

An AFFECTING SCENE.-On We'd
nesday afternoon an old man, cane il
hand, was passing along the south side o.
Washington street, near the corner oI
Catherine, in this village. He was jog
ging along, apparently in deep medita'
tion. On the other side of the street
was a returned soldier, who, observing
the old gentleman, started across the
street toward him, and accosted him as
Mr.. Wright. The old man did not ap-
pear to hear him until he was overtaken
and saluted with show do you do, Mr..
Wright"
The old gent, half hesitatingly reached
forward his hand, which was heartily
grasped by the soldier, and peered intent
ly into his face, and replied
"Well, declare, you have got the
star. Of me this time"
"You ought to know me, / used to
work for you," the soldier replied.
"When ?" asked the old man.
"Before the war;" said tie soldier.
"Are you sure ?" inquired the old man
"Where do ! live, and what is my name p
"At Briar Hill, and your name is
Wright" said the soldier.
"Well, this is strange; how long did
you work for me ?" the old man inquir>
ed.
"a good many years." was the re-
sponse.
"And yet do not recognize you.-
What is your name z"
"Albert Wright" said the soldier.
At this announcement the old man
dropped his cane and fell upon the sold
ier's breast, exclaiming My God is
this my son Albert? ?"
The scene which followed is beyond
description. Th son embraced the fa>
ther. Both wept tears of joy. The old
man danced with delight, and in his ter
psichorean feat, cut pigeon wing-doub-
lie chassa-half right and left-do-se
do-alamand left--apd balance all in a
style which indicated that he had quite
forgotten bis age or infmities, and ex-
claimed, as he wound up his delightful
performance: "Wouldn't the old woman
give her eyes 10 know this" For some
minutes the two men engaged in these
immoderate exhibitions of love aud aff,c
tion, and then went off together.
A lady who witnessed the happy meet
ing of father and son, informs us that she
was so interested in the scene, that sew
eral little tears of joy drops came from
the we'll of her own heart and made their
escape from her eyes before she knew
what they were about. She inferred
from the conversation that Albert had
long been given up by bis parents as dead.
There must have been joyous time at
the elder Wright's on the evening Of the
2d.-Cgdensburg Journal.
