When for a sunnier laud than ours
Will come the gentle Spring again!
With verdant fields and glowing flowers,
And song and beauty in her train I
When will the sunshine, glad and warm,
set the imprisoned waters'fiee,
Anil smile upon the frowning storm,
And calm the foaming sea!
Within these narrow walls I pine
Out on the sunny hills to go,
Where wad dower and sunny vine
And the green grass are wont to grow
I.,eve to tread those fields aluue,
Whvre gladlng, streams, with voices mild,
Murmur for aye the quiet tone •
That tAtilled me even when a child.
I :on , to roam the pathless woods,
Where all day long the shadows lie;
To , hout within their solitudes,
And hear the fainting echo die.
Air lie upon some rocky steep,
And linger in ti.e sunny sun
I.)nc hours, within the valley deep,
To hear the laughing waters run.
But more than all,klong to guide
The ploughshare in=the fragrant soil,
And feel once more the jay and pride,
The jocund health, of peaceful toil.
I heed the Summer's beauteous bloom,
A rfAutomn' , 4 gorgeous offering.
And Winter pale, with storm end gloom ;
Put most I love the gentle Spring.

in the world of the widow Lao:wiles had been sof-
Melt to create more thin usual sensation. for she
was stillyoung and beentilul, nay, it would be more
just to, say that her beauty was now first idly de.
veloped into womanly perfection. Can it, there

the puling widow. ---at a distince, it is Ithe,.for they
well perceived that-their addresses would, at the
present early date, have excited the indignation .of
one whci had -buffered Much, and who still retained,
though not an Acute, still subdued melancholy feel.
ing of her bereavement. Still they hoped, believ
ing that in no woman's heart yet young and bear&
fat, and surrounded with all the luxuries of life,
could grief maintain a settled sway. The fourth
year after the death of her husband; Fanny Lascel•
lee did, indeed, seem to have more taste for life
and society, hot it might have been that now her
boy was advancing to an age which prevente-J her
continuing tier seclusiona Her air appeared, 'too,
lees melancholy, and die hopes of the female, rose
with the circomstancev, and wherever the young
widow was, there assuredly might be met some of
expectant but silent admirers. They, were of all
ages'and positions, from the lispieg, sell satisfied
elevint, to him of ripe, almost mellow -age, and
whose respectable and staid position in society
gave him, in his estimation, a greater chance, when
she who was concerned was an unprotected female.
Amongst these silent admirers, however, was one
more sedulous in his attentions than the rest; he
was a young Frenchman, of good family and for
tune, extremely handsome exterior, and highly an
complished ; he was amiable to bet, and appeared
most fond of her (thud, and, under 'he plea of bring
ing him trifles, he found a ready admission into
her house. His visits gradually extended in length
and frequency, until is became almost a certaimy
to find me young Marquis de Virrey at the house
of the fair widow at a certain period of the day;
and, jaining this circumstance to
.her increased
gaily, rumor was, it is possible, nof•altogether to
.blame in foretelling the speedy alliance of the
pair.
Upon one of theme visits the Marquis de Vincy
was, perhaps premeditatedly so, unusually taM
turn, and. after more than an ordinary long pause
in the conversation, when the Marquii was appa
rently lost in Jeep thought, the widow broke the
silence—
" l trust, Monsieur le Marquitr, that nothing un
pleasant has occurred to you since our last meet-
03111
" No, madame, you are very good to interest
yourself; but"—a momentary silence ensued, and
the Marquis heaved a deep sigh, and looked moat
expressively, " can you not.feel for me, madame I"
" I really do riot understand you, Monsieur /13
Marquis "
" I trust that you will pardon me, then, when I
confess to you my admiration and love, and my
hopes raised by your kind reception."
Half,pained and insulted at these words, which
were the first she had ever heard of his affection,
she sprung from the sofa, regarding him with as=
ton ishment.
The Marquis perceived the effect of his sudden
announcement, and though but lute Battered at his
reception, he still persevered.
" Ah ! cold-hearted woman,"he exclaimed ; " is
there, then, no hopefor me—can you not see the
true allec.ion, which I feel tot you?"
The young widow had now recovered her -for—
mer serenity, and with her kindest manner, that
she might somewhat soften the blow, and inware
ly blaming herself for the impropriety of so often
receiving his visits, she declared that she was irre
vocably determined never to wed again. But the
Marquis was resolved to press his suit, and, seizing
her hand, he bent over it, and, bedewing it with
tears, implored her not to tell him that there was no•
hope. Regardless of the rerrent of passionate words
which tell from his lips, the yoUng widow drew her
stately form up, aria is Isl . (lima him as possible,
requested him to rise. • r
" Ah, Madame!" he exclaimed, in tones of akin
touching sorrow, " have you ri a viontado heart I

This it Was that pity, - the Only thing far which
her loier prayed, Made its way' into her soh heart,

said, is akin to love. It was, therelore, very thought
less of the young widow to let him continue is

again of the feelings which consumed him"! it Was
utterly impossible, and if he commanded his tongue,
and retrained from speaking his ardent thoughts,
be could not control his eyes nor veil. them , from

which devoured his heart, so that, when the Mar.

. We once knew a minister, who, in describing
the Chtistiari's character, and the circumspection of
his walk, said the way to, heaven required as much
care as it slid for a eat to walk on a wall covered
with broken bottles. It is something so' with an
editor, if he is to please everybody.
Itriussi.TIIE.OLOGIN—The precise idea which the
Western Indians entertain of a future life is said to
be this:—As soon•as the Indian threw off the flesh,
he would find himself standing on the batik of die
river, the current running with great rapidity.—
Across the river was. a slender pole, stripped of its
bark ; and lying close down to the surface of the
water. The Indian who had lived a good life then
sees a bright object on the other side; that was
" Right." He would then, desirous of embracing
the object he loved so well in the *DO, walk
acrosti the pole,' unmindful of the raging torrent be
neath, his feet, , arriving in safety on the opposite
shorts;,and Rilibt would then lead' him amongst
mountains-covered with gold - and silver,- into no
ble hunting grounds, where he would hunt for eter
nity.
_But on the other baud, the man, who follow
ed CI Wrong" - all his life, when attempting to cross
the pole, after death, would fall into the foaming
stream, and be swept down into the whirlpool sur
rounded by rocks ; there he would be carried
round for centuries and centuries, until at last, he
wou!d be goulaally sucked m towards the centre
of the tortes, and finally engulphed in an im
mense bottomless bole. What became of the un
fortunate sinner the Indians could not surmise, fur•,
ther than be lived forever.
