Oh I tell me, o’r this chequered caHh, How thou hast passed away 7 Brightly, sweet Summer! brightly Thine hours have flouted by, To the joyous birds of the woodland boughs, The rangers of the sky. And brightly in the forests, To the wild deer wandering free. And, brightly ’midst the garden It? the happy, murmuring bee. 1 But to human bosoms, With all Lh. ir living and fairs, And thought'' that make them eagle wings, And pierce the unborn years? Sweet Summer! tothocaptivo Thou hast flown lu burning dreams, Of the Woods, with all their whispering leaves, And the blue, iiyoicing streams. To the wasted and the weary On the bed of sickness bound, In swift deletion? fantasies, That changed with every sound:— To the sailor on tlic billows, lu longings wild ami vaiu, >’or the gushing founts ami breezy bills, And the homes of earth again 1 And glad Summer I How hast thou llowa tome? My clm.iulvs.s footstep nought hath kept Iroui thy haunts of .song and glee. Thou hast flown in wayward visions, lu memories uf the dead la shadows, from :i troubled heart, O f er thy sunny pathway shod. In brief and sudden strivings, To fling a weight aside— ’Midst these thy melodies ceased And all thy roses died. But, Oh I thou gentlu Summer!

Select IHManjn THE WAY TO FIX HIM. “ Out again, to-night t” said Mrs. Haynes, fretfully, as her husband rose from the tea ta ble, and donned his great coat. “ Yes, I have an engagement with Moore ; I shall be in .early; have a light in the library ; good night," and with a cureless nod, William Hayes left the room. “Always the way,” murmured Lizzie HaycSj sinking back upon a sofa; “ out every night, I don’t believe he cares one bit about mo now, and yet we’ve only been married two years. No man has a more orderly house ; I am not a bit extravagant, and yet 1 don’t believe he lov.es me any more. -Oh ! dear, why is it ? I wasn’t rich, he didn’t" Ciarry me for money, and ho must have loved then--why does he treat me with- so much neglect?” and with her mind filled with such fretful queries, Lizzie Hayes fell asleep on the. sofa. Let me paint her figure as she lay there. She was a blonde, with a mall graceful figure, and a very pretty face. The hair, which showed by its rich waves, its natural tendency to curl, was brushed smoothly back, and gathered in a rich mass at the back; “it was such a bother to curl itj” she said; her cheeks were pale, and the whole face wore a discontented expression. Her dress was a neat chintz- wrapper, but she wore neither collar nor sleeves—“what’s the use of (dressing up just for William ?” Lizzie slept soundly for two hours, and then woke .suddenly: She sat up, glanced at the clock, .and sighed drearily at the long interval to be spent alone before bed time. The library yraa just over the room in which she sat,' and down the furnace flue, through the registers, a Voice’ came to'the young wife’s fears; it was her husband’s. “Well, Moore, what’s a man to do? I was disappointed'and I must have pleasure some where.; Who would have fancied that Lizzie Jarvis/so 'sprightly, and loving, could have changed to the fretful dowdy she is now ? Who wants; to stay at home to hear his wife whining all the evening about her troublesome servants, and her headache, and all sorts of bother;? She’s got tho knack of that drawling whine jso pat, that, ’pon life, I don’t believe she can speak pleasantly.” Lizzie sat :as if stunned. Was this true ? She looked into the glass. If not dowdy, her cos tume was certainly not suitable for an evening, [independent in EVERYTHING.] BT MRS. UK3IAX& even if it were, an evening at home with only one to admire. She arose and softly went to her own room, with bitter, sorrowful thoughts, and a firm resolution to win back her husband’s heart, and then, his love regained, to keep it. The next morning, William came into the breakfast room with his usual careless manner, but a bright smile c&mo to his lips os he saw Lizzie. A pretty Chintz, with a pretty collar, and sleeves of snowy muslin, and a wealth of soft, full curls, had really metamorphosed her, while the blush her husband's admiring glance called up to her cheek, did not detract from her beauty. At first William thought there must be a guest, but glancing around he found they were alone. , “ Come, William, your coffee will be stone cold,” said Lizzie in a cheery, pleasant voice. “ It must be cool till you sweeten my break fast with a kjss,” said her husband, crossing the room to her side ; and Lizzie s heart bounded as she recognized the old lover's tone and manners. Jiot one fretful speech, not one complaint, fell upon William’s ear through the meal. The newspaper, his usual solace through that hour, lay untouched, as Lizzie chatted gaily on every J pleasant subject she could think of, warming by his gratified interest and cordial manner. ‘‘You will be home to dinner?” she said as he went out. “ Can’t to-day, Lizzie. I have business out of town, but I’ll be home early to tea. Have something substantial, for I don’t expect to dine Good bye,” and the smiling look, warm kiss and lively whistle, were a marked contrast to bis careless, longing gait of’the evening previous. ‘I am in the right path,” said Lizzie in a low whisper. “ Oh, what a fool I have been for the last two years 1 A‘fretful dowdy!’ William, you shall never say 30 again.” Lizzie loved her hiisbaud with real wifely de , votipn, and her lips would quiver as she thought, of his confidence to his friend Moore; but like a heave little woman she stifled back the bitter feeling, and tripped off to perfect her plans.— The grand piano, silent for montbs, was opened and the linen cover taken from the furniture. Lizzie thinking— “he shan’t find any parlor more attractive than his own, I am determined.” Tea time came, and William came with it. A’ Lttle figure in a last}’, bright dress, smooth cm s, and oh 1 such a lovely blush-smile, stood ready to welcome William as he came in ; and tea lime passed as the morning meal had done. After tea mere was no movement, as usual towards the hut-rack. William stood up beside’ toe l-iOiG Lugoi ing, chatting till Lizzie arose, she led him to the light, wurm parlors, in their pretty glow ot tasteful arrangements, and drew him down beside her on the sofa. He fel( as if he wore courting her again as he watched her fingers busy with some fancy needle-work, and listened to the cheerful voice which he had loved so well two years before , “ What are you making, Lizzie ?” “A pair of slippers. Don't you remember how much you admired the pair I worked for you, oh I ever so long ago ?” I remember ; black velvet with flowers on them. I used to put my feet on the fender, and dream of blue eyes,' and bright curls, and wish time would move faster to the day when I could bring my bonnie wee wife home, to make music in my house.” Lizzie s face saddened for a moment, as she thought of the last two years and how little music she had made for his loving heart grad ually weaning it from its allegiance: then she said : I wonder if you like music as much as you did then ?” ' a f s°'' irso often go in at Miss Smith s for nothing else than to hear the music.” *• I can play and sing better than Miss Smith,” said she half pouting. “ Rut you always say you are out of practice, when I ask you.” I had thy piano tuned this morning. Now open it and we shall see how it sounds.” W liliam obeyed joyfully, and tossing her dew ing asiuf, Lizzie took the piano stool. She had a sweet voice, not powerful, but most musical and was a very fair performer on the piano. “Ballads, Lizzie.”, “ 1 ,? e3 t 1 know f oa dislike opera music in a parlor.” One song after another, with a nocturne or lively instrumental piece, occasionally between them, filled up another hour very pleasantly. The clock struck eleven. “ Eleven ! I thought it was about nine. I ought to apologize, Lizzie, as I used to for stay ing so long; and I can truly say as I did then, that the time has passed so pleasantly I can scarcely believe it is so late.” The piano was closed, Lizzie’s work put in the basket, and William was ready to go up stairs ; but glancing back, he saw his little wife near the fire-place, her head bent and largo tears falling from her eyes.

The indications of a return of fash ions of 1804 and 1810 at the present time are too decided to admit of any doubt, and wo are informed that the shrewdest tailors and milli ners are already on the chase of old engravings of that period. , . s N The invention of a new clock, upon the principle of the thermometer, by the pressure of air on mercury, is creating a great sensation in PAris. The cost of the clock, which goes twen ty-four hours, and then has only to be turned like the hour-glass, is not more than a franc. Tom and Joe were talking over their travels, when Tom asked bis chum * “ Were you ever in Greece?” “No.” replied Joe: “but I once- fell into a thundering big tub §t soap.” A Sublime Idea. The closing passage in one of Prof. Mitchell’s recent lectures in New York on astronomy; after speaking of unfathomable distances which no telescope can penetrate, lying far beyond the system in which the earth revolves, and yet filled with independent system of worlds ofiufi nite numbers, as follows: “ Light traverses a space; at the rate of a mil lion miles a minute, yet the light from the near est star requires ten years to roach the earth, an d , ep . d npon u sho will ne ver amount to much.
