Poetry.
The Bridal Day.

She leans beside her mirror, in her old accustom
ed place.
Yet something unfamiliar is on her troubled face
She wears wreath, snow-white wreath, which
yet she never wore
1t gives paleness to the cheek unknown to 1t be
fore
The maiden goeth to the grove, and, of the flow
beneath,
She takes the lily or the rose, TO bind her mid
But Of one plant she gathers not, though fair it,
blossoms be;
Only the bride hath leave wear binds from the
orange tree.
Once only once that wreath is worn-once only
may she
The pale white wreath of orangehowers within
her shining hair;
They wear upon their soft wan bloom, the shade
of coming years;
The spiritual presence is around OF human hopes
and fears.
For, in that long and tender look she taketh her
farewell
OF all her youths Inconsistencies, of all her light
er cares;
And for deeper, sadder life-a woman's lot..pre
Fares.
She leaves her old familiar place, the hearts that
were her own;
The love to which she trusts herself is yet thing
Though at name her cheek turned red, though
Yet for that name she must 2leign So much that
has been dear.
1t is an anxious happness-it is fearful thing,
When first the maiden's small, white hand puts
the golden ring;
She passeth from her fathers house unto anoth-
er's care,
And who may say what troubled hours, what sor-
rows wait her there?
Ali love and life are mysteries, both blessing and
blest;
And yet how much they teach the heart of trial
and unrest;
Sweet maiden, while these trou bled ghts mid
bridal fancies sweep,
Well may'st thou pensve watch thy glass, and
turn aside to weep?

Sloppy Effusiveness.

Nothing is more annoying than that dis
play of affection which some husbands and
wives show to each other in society. That
familiarity of touch, those self-concealed
caresses, those absurd names. that prodigali-
ty of endearing epithets, that devoted at
tention which they faunt in the face Of the
public as kind of challenge to the world at
large to come and admire their happines, is
always noticed and laughed at, and some
times more than laughed at Yet to some
women this parade of love is the very es-
sence of married happiness, and part of their
dearest privileges. They believe themselves
admired and envied, when they are ridicul-
ed and scofed at; and they think their has
bands are models Tor other mea to copy,
! when they arr taken as examples for all to
avoid. Men who have any manliness, how
ever, do not give in TO this kind of thing !;
though there arc some, as effeminate and
gushing as women themselves, who like
this sloppy effusiveness of love, aud carry it
on into quite old ag,, fondling the ancient
grandmother with gray hairs as lavishly as
they had fondlcd the youthful bride, and
seeing no want of harmony in calling an
Old dame OF sixty and upward by the pet
names by which they had called her when
she was slip of a girl of eighteen. The
continuance of love from youth to old age is
very lovely, very cheering; but even John
Anderson, my Jo,' would lose its pathos if
Mrs. Anderson had ignored the difference
between the raven locks and the snowy
brow. This public display of familiar affec-
ton is never seen among men who pride
themselves on making good lovers, as GER
tain men do-those who have reduced the
practice of love making to an art, science
and know their lesson to letter. These
men are delightful to women, who like
nothing as much as being made love to, as
well after marriage as before; but men who
take matters quietly too. sail around these
scient fic adorers for both depth and manli-
ness And if women knew their best in
terests they could care more for the trust
than the science.

Only q Trihe.

Precisely; but of seeming trifes-of
atoms-the universe is made. God has
dealt with many things, but with nothing
has he trlfed. We may hold an hour as
trlaing possession; yet in every hour thou
sands of human beings are born and die
The great face of nature takes on some
change with every second of time. Not a
bud bursts but there is an appointment for
its odor. Not leaf falls, but to enrich
some space Of earth. By almost invisible
degrees, the fens and marshes are lifted by
vegetation into habtable soil. The noun
tain is but an aggregation of notes; and the
mightiest oak, stalwart on the hills, and
defiant of Lightning and storm, was once
but tiny acorn. Only triae TRIES
are often the seeds of the weightest events,
beginnings Of the grandest ends-steps to-
ward the most momentous conclusion. Ifa
single vote has made governor. SO has
some unintended slight of an ambassador
klndled furious war. 1t is the first small
yielding to temptation that peoples prisons
and feeds the gallows. Trihes are indica-
tons, even as straws are weathe rvapes.-
They compel differences as to habit and
character. The cruel child points forward
to the cruel, bad man. 1t is about trifes
we should be careful He who is true in
little will seldom be false in great ones.
