OF their dolesl
would shatter the chains
Of their souls,
Oh, nighting gale. sweet nightingale.
The attention Of the nightingale Is respect
fully called to this suggestion. Mr. Bernstein
declares that he cannot be as the nightingale,
but there Is no reason why the nightingale
should not be as Mr.. Bernstein. According to
report. he has time. We observe that Mr..
Bernstein has no poem TO the sweetest Of sta

OF compensation. It runs:
Though the lakes know not the emotion
That the depths OF tho ocean shakes.
Yet the lakes may smile on the ocean.
Aud The ocean smile on tho lakes.
We take II that Lake Erie fading its way
into Lake Ontario. knows about as much emo
ton as there is. Moreover. 1t is not supposed
that the depths OF ocean. except In cases OF
earthquake. are nearly az much agitated as
| the surface. This. however. is nothing against
! the sentiment Of the poem which does not
need to look for It's support in nero ilustra-
ton. Mr.. England has posm on the late
Thomas F. Bayard OF Delaware:
| Delaware tbs time to weep.
Lolthy loss indeed Is great,
Thou could ct prize but could at not keep,
| Death hath left thee desolate;
| Sit in silence. bow tiny head.
| Bayard. thy greatest son is dead
| He attained the greatest place
Ever gained by states man strong
Bound our ocean sundersd race,
Into one-tin taunt wrong
| 'Gainst the humblest saxon hurled
Rouses SaIons round the world.
