Once there through n forrsl strnyed
A nymph of beauty rare,
Whose heart was nil In grief nrrny'd,
Tor cue who was not tlicro.
Yet nno who hnd In other ilnv
Gnthcr'd wet llow'r forlicr,
And who had sung lovo's tender lays
lleiieath the dark green fir.
Hut like the summer breeze had flown
Ills Iotu, so uft nrntv'd,
And left lior nn n rce Iu bloom,
Hcncuth n shower how'd.
Sad were to her the summer days
The sun shone clear and bright ;
Hut not within lis npirkllng rays
San tho one gleam nf light.
Though with his Image In her mind,
Or him she ucTcr spoka ;
Hut pale with grief, she long did pluc,
Hoiicnlh the fatal stroke ;
Till nought or her could there be seen
Not e'en a shadowy light ;
Hut through tho ford and tho glen
Her toiee sounds clear and bright.

There nre so many cards to play,
So many nays to chooso.
In Love and Politics and War,
In forwarding our views,
Willi ladles fair and statesmen wlio,
Or men of lcucr bumps,
Hcforo you lead your strongest suit
'TU well to know what's trump.
Once, worshipping at beauty's shrlno
I knelt In bondage sweet,
And breathed my rows with eagerness,
And offered at hor feet
My soul, well stored with Cupid's wealth,
A lov i-ccmcnted lump )
A king of diamonds took the trick
ily heart was not a trump.
Hating to sco my rival win
Upon a single ri4,
As ho played tho iltuce with me,
I followed with a elub.
Two days within a station-homo
llellrctlng on my sin.
I found, an others may havo done,
Clubs very seldom wlu.
Grown wlio by sad experience,
I cooso to deal with maids ;
I shuffled youthful follies oft.
And turned up Jack of spades ;
Yet still I find ai dust" Is scarco,
And smaller crow tho "lumps."
That though tho Spade's an honest card,
It Is not always trumps.

A ship, becalmed at sea, lay rocking la

son, not knowing what to do, began mis
chlovnusly to climb the mast. Ilo had got
half wny to tho top, when, turning his eyes
below to sec how far ho Tins from tho dcok,
he suddenly grew dlzry.
"I am fating, I nm falling," he cried.

The following is tliO conclusion of Mr.
Caleb Cushlug's eloquent sjKtch, lately de
livered at I'ancull Hall, In Hoston :
Merchants of Massachusetts, with your
superb galleons, from the shipyards or Hast
Hoston nnd Ncwburyport, moving over the
sea In the prlda of their tanuty nnd their!
strength, freighted with the rich agricultu
ral productions of Carolina nnd Lunlsiana,'
you have been told hero that yuur Interests
nro Iu conflict with thoso nf tho South I
Manufacture or Massachusetts! you, with
your palatial manufactories to wiatolnto
apparel, for tho world's wear, tho agricultu
ral productions of Georgia and Alabama,
jhnoln'cn told hero that you must surren
der yourselves to tho il ytrlt of jealousy 1
of the South I
Citizens of Massachusetts! and especially
you of the Industrial classes, who wear tho
cotton, eat the corn and sugar, nnd drink
the cnlfco of slave labor, nnd who provide
objects of art for tho uso of slave labor, nnd
ofthoio who own It you alio havo been

lcu Inc all other thlncs, you mut betake
C.T,7VT
1
..., atnv .ItUk Vt tlUlUllini, IUt 4UlilV, I
Men of MaMacbusctts! you nro exhorted to ,
cultlvato amicable relation with Cuba-
alavo colony though It be to supply It with
lumber, fowl nnd other object or value, nnd
to buy und consume it produats, and thus
to sustain and perpetuate slavu labor there,
and lovo slavu owners, while jou aro called
upon to sacrlCco the pcaco and honor or tho
State, and dedicate yourself, from reproba
tion of slavo labor, to unceasing hostility
against your own countrymen of the South
ern States.
When I hear eucli counsels darkly Inti
mated, under specious dlsguUo of speech, to
tho State of Massachusetts, It seems to ne
that tho first Tempter, na depicted by Mil-''a
tou, Is before my eyes
"Close nt the ear of Eve,
Assaying by his devilish art to reach
The organs of her fancy, nnd with them forge
Illusions, ns ho list, phantasms and dreams
Or if, Inspiring venom, he might taint
The animal spirits that from puro flood arise
Like gentlo breaths from rivers puro thence
raise
At least distempered, discontented thoughts,
Vain hopes, vain aims, Inordinate desires,
Dlown up with high conceit engendering
pride."
I say down, down to tho iufernal pit
where they belong, with all these derelict
inspirations or malice, hatred, and uncharl
tablinvssl You, tho people or Massachu
setts, do not, In the Inner chamber or your
heart, approva and will not, on considera
tion, adopt tbl Abominable theory or hec
tlonal splto and hate. You will In tho end,
If not to-day, repel that policy withtcoru
and horror, llcfore that time of sober
judgment comes, I who stand up for tho
Unicn, in It letter and spirit who will
die In the breach rather than "lot Itslldc"
I may be struck down by the tempest of par
ty passion, but others, better and more for
tunate, will rlso up nnd fill tho gap in the
rank of the sacred phalanx or tbo soldiers
or tho Constitution. Man I feeble, ni6rtal,
transient 5 but our country Is powerful, Im
mortal, eternal. In tho long age of glory
wbicu no oeforo us rolling onward, one after
anotiier, like tho ceaseless rote or the sure
log waters on tho oa shore, wao upon wnvo
rustling on to (111 the rdaco or that which
sluk luto tbpmala, generations or men wllj
jComoanu go, with their Joys nnd sorrows,
j their conflicts nnd their reconciliations.
;Then it will bo seen that ho who was tho
highest had loen but nn atom or the great
wnoie, nna uo w no was humblest had been
a much. We are alike In the hands or the
Almighty, and but the instrument of His
will In tho doing or tho great work commen
ced by our rather at Jamestown nnd Ply
mouth, continued by them at Saratoga and
lormown, cnrrieu on ny u nt rMontcrey
and Mexico itho great work of reducing to
cultivation nod civilization the savannahs

once the banner State or tho Union, will not

performing her appointed part pf that work

I'cw secrets nro so Important as that of

A lady with ordinary features and ordi

prefer such a ono to her who no matter
how beautiful or bewitching puts on her
smiles llko her ornaments, and dresses her
mind like her person, for company, in paint

Tho truo secret of maktug homo happy Is

affection unspeakable Tho useful attain
ment of life should be blended with the
lighter Accomplishments ; And tho attractive

from the polish or Intercourse, than from
tho Inborn sweetness or her disposition
Site mutt bo a woman true to herself, her
nature, and her destiny one daring to break
away from tho slavery of fashion nnd the
allurements of pleasure, and to seek her
happlucss in tho path of duty alone. She
must be scnsltlvo in her organization, ar

therefore, In the ark of lovo at home, gush
forth, like a leaping fountain, In all their
fulness nnd their glory. She can bo strong
in the very reserve nnd shrinking delicacy
of her character, nnd, even while appearing
to waver, diffuse a tranqullizing influence
over all around her, like the falling or the
pure, soft light felt, but not heard, swaying
nil by the magic ceatus or her sweet love.
Tbo pains tho wife took to charm Jier

come a world of their own. Tbo tie that

In body and spirit, there is nothing so sweet

of a weary traveler over Aslatlo dearth, like
tho soft, cool hand of friendship on the fe

a man must feel in the consciousness or poss
essing a woman's love that cannot be wea
ried or exhausted; that cannot be chilled
by selfishness, weakened by unworthlncss,

rises superior to the afflictions or tnisforr
