VENICE.

Again upon the lips Of men
1t passes familiar word,
Venice-poetry of names
Sweetest and saddest earth has heard
Once noblest too, for she has shone
Single and lustIous as star,
Nor always one portending woe,
Or lurid with the reek Of war.
bright through the far reeedinz past,
Inc radiance of her greatness glows,
AZ from the marge of sunlit seas
a path of light ascending goes;
And glorious even in her fall
-. She shines, as when in western skies
The blooming purple faints and fades,
And all the golden glory dies-
Grand were the old barbaric days
When in her regal splendor throned
She ruled--a light-effulg ing sphere,
By tributary kingdoms zoned.
The Cleopatra Of the earth
she reveled then, while on her breast
Ihe wealth Of all the Orient glowed
And blinded the adoring West
Noble those days when in her pride
She brookcd no bridegroom but the sea,
And in its rude embraces caught
The fatal longing to be free
Fatal, since DespOtisms yet
Shrank from the light Of later times,
Or saw, and hated what thsy saw,
And held it heaviest Of crimes.
Q, snddest spectacle of earth =
That queenlv brow the common scorn,
Its grandeur wholly passed away,
Its beauty utterly tOrlorn
desolction as Of death
Has stricken to that royal heart
What but memory is her fame?
Where in the present is her part?
And for the future ?--ycars will die
And years on years-reyclyng moous
VIII gid her lions shaiouy wings,
And ttemble in her still iagoons.
But never will the hour return
That yields her back her ancient reign,
And never will the nations bend
In homage at her feet again.
The past ispast. No second prime,
No second summer beauty knows
And she, thcfallen, the forlorn,
Has but her memories and her woes.
No gloams Of heedom stir her heart,
No visions cf recovered power
Only her beauty cannot die,
And it and sgrrSw are her dover.

A correspondent writing from Paris, mentions,
as an instance of the severity of the law of France,
the case of commune in one of the central de-
partments against land owner, who had refus-
ed to allow the poor of the neghborhood to eXer-
after harvesting. The suit was decided against
the landowner, on the ground that the owner had
no power to bring sheep into his own field until
two days after the gatherng-in Of the harvest, so
as TO give the cleaners time to avail themselves
of their rights. Another law is that no land-own-
er is allowed to cut down single tree on his es-
tate without the consent Of an individual whose
duty il is to superintend everything in the shape
of trees, wild or planted, and to regulate their
| cutting according TO the provisions of the law.
| Thus, when an owner wishes to cut down trees he
sends for this funcionary, who, after examin-
ing the premises, marks the ones which may be
cut.
