HAPPINEss.--Happiness is that sim
gle and glorious thing which is the
very light and sun of. the whole anima-
ted universe; and where she is not, it
were better that nothing should be.
Without her, wisdom is but a shodow,
and virtue name; she is their sOver-
eign mistress for her alone they Ia
Dor, and by her they will be paid; to
enjoy her, and to communicate her, is
the object of their efforts, and the con-
summation of their toll.

Daughters Of Cnrolinal bring
Affections purest offering,
TO wreathe the martyrs name;
Aye, weave garland for the brave,
And rear abovethe PATRIOTS grave
monument OF fame.
No eloquent appeal we need,
Your hearts the sacred cause must plead;
The dictates of your love
The mightiest appeal can frame,
Not cen a seraph's tongue OF flame
Could SO the passions move.
Call back the last decade of years,
So fraught with suffering and tears
Call back the parting hour,
When flushed with patriotic pride,
The nuble form stood by thy side,
In manhood's strength and power.
Armed with purpose pure and high,
70 save his country or to die,
He bade his lart adieu,
And joined the. patriotic band,
To battle for his native land,
To bleed and die for you.
Bereavedl but not alone thy fate,
Ten thousand homes within our State
Are desolate as thine;
ho IN d1sssnt rsaiia s thousand graves
To us are sacred shrines.
Though time the storm of grief may quell,
Our hearts are draped in mourning still,
Despite tho lapse of years;
And though their graves are far away,
In thought we, thither often stray,
And water them with tears.
The purest tablets Of our soul,
Their virtues and their names enroll,
While life itself shall last;
But when we pass from earth away,
Shall their loved memory decay,
Swept by oblivion's blast2
Nay, nay-more sacred Is their claim.
Than ancient braves whose enved fame,
Has pealed in trumpet tone,
Down throughlong centuries Of years
And walked enthusiastic cheers,
In climes to them unknown.
What more had they to give, who gave,
Freely their own life-blo0d TO save,
Their land from errors chain2
Shall we the martyrs cease 10 bless,
Or ehall We love their mem'ry less,
Because thoy died in vain?
Like him. wi who, 4: ,twssl!t'ring y on the ground,
The cross.bis sovereign gave;
Ere from their talisman theyd part,
They bore it treasured i'll their hearts,
Down to the silent graves
Devotion to our native land,
And justice to that patriot band,
From us n tribute claim
lasting monument to raise,
That may transmit to future days
A record OF their fame.
And when the surging tide of life,
With which the shores OF time are rife,
Forever shall recede;
When every heart that now beats high,
Forgotten in the grave shall lie,
Among the mould'ring dead;
That ''roll Of honor still shall be,
A heritage posterity
Will trace through mists of tears.
And every name recorded there,
need OF deathless fame will share,
Through all succeeding years.
