TEE BUMAL OF LOVE.
IT WM. CULLEN BILVINT
Two dark haired maids, ea shut of day,
Sat, where a rivet rolled away.
With calm sad brows and raven hair,
And one was pale, and both were fait.
Bring flowers they sang, bring.flowers emblo s irti
Bring forest blooms of name unknown,
Bring building sprays from wood and wild
To strew the biessand Love the Child.
Clow softly. fondly, while ye weep,
His eyes, that death may seem like sleep,
And lay his hands, in sign of rest,
Hu waxen hoods, across his breast,
And makes his grave where violets hide,
Where alter-flowers strew the rivulet's side,
AAud bloc-birds, in the mists of spring. •
Of cloudless skies and summer sing,
Place near him, as ye lay him low„
ilia idle shafts, his loosened bow.
The silken band that oft around -
fiis
waggish eyes in mirth he wound.
Bat we shall mourn him long, and miss
His ready smile, his ready kiss,
The patter of his little feet, '
Sweet frowns and stammered phrases sweet.
And graver lucks serene aid high.. •-
A light of heaven in that young eye;
All these shall haunt as, kill the heart.
Shall ache—and ache—and tears shall start.
The bow, the band, shall fall to dust,
The shining arrows waste with rust,
Bat he whom now, from sight of men,
We hide in earth, shall live again.
Shall break these clods, a form of light,
With nobler men and clearer sight,
And in the eternal glory stand,
Witb those who wait at God's"right hind

All About a Mrs.
The meltit juncture of four rosy lips.\'
Tan NATURALIST.-A kiss is bringing,
iato juxtaposition two contrarily charged poles
by which it, like an electric-spark, is elicited.
Tim MORALIST.-A kiss is the token of the,
most intimate communion of love, and is there
foru only to be permitted in the married state.
TIM Patsiciam—A kiss is the art of so
moving the LibiOputicl&i that the lips are first
brought soddenly together, and theaexplosive
ly separ a t e cl : so , that after all a kiss is-only an
artificial spasm.
TEtE PMOLOGISS.-“ Kiss" is an enomato
poele.word, in' which the curtness of the thing
is represented by the brief sound of the word.
Tat Airrionssamv.=—Kissing is a custom
handed down to US by the Greeks and Romans,
as to the true signification of which we are not
perfectly clear. Probably it is symbolic of the
sun's rays greeting the earth ; and if so, doubt).
leas was received with all the other lore of sun
worship from the Orientals.
TILEOLOGIANS, (a 'host of them.)_A kiss is
an emblematic action by which the bending of
the heavens to the earth is designed to be sym
bolized.
TEE PHILOS:PEEL...A kiss is ttuxt protruding
the eircle of the lips, whereby the quantitative
4 rillerenee of the sine of one is placed in such
orebsion to the quantitative difference of the
sine tithe Soother, that thereby the identity of
the autinsloobject with the ldeaLreal is proved.
TitE Ptsma.--A kiss - Russ] is the gash
!piss] of one sent to another. The-pressing
of the iipsialhe pressing of lemon into the
insipid beverage of life. This pressure is the
expression of-the impressiOn which oppresses
the heart. It is the only press with which no
termrship can interfere. Here we still have
freedom of the pen."
THE Lawns The the is a amity in lam,
being neither a right in posee nor a right in

family right, and would treat itafter the =alo

- "Clara," said Arrielus, "1 hare brbught you
to this lone retreat, to tell you 'unwelcome
news. Here where we 'first learned to
_bier
where happy, blissful hours have passed so
noiselessly by, I have come to bid you a Ihng
farwell. - My vow is registered; and em pale
morn shall bathe the earth in its flood of mel
low light, I shall .be far hence on the field
where valor pants for a glorious name. My
own Clara, how can 'I leave you r i and he
clasped the trembling maiden to his bosom
and wept convulsively. A - few moments suf

"I understand the whole, Amulris, and -am
prepared for the worst. Go as yoO have said.
Patriotism and duty alike demand it, and the
claims of Love must be scondary. Life is th
noblest sacrifice that can be offered in such
• use. Yes go ; think not of me when the
notes of war call you to defend your country.
Let Liberty be your battle.cry;- and your val
or, your ambition will win for you glory and
fame ; or hallow the honored grave of a patri
ot fallen. In such an hour as ' this, I would
not have you show a coward's heart, even tho'
I knew that otherwise the fires of a vvidbwed
' love-shouldconsume my heart"
"Noblest of thy sex," replied Amulus," your I
will, with me, is fate." From a long and pas
sionate embrace he broke only to murmur,
adieu, and vanished from the arbor like a phan
tom.
Clara was now alone, an& she sat for some
time like one in a trance; then suddenly rous
ing as from a troubled dream, for a long time
sobs and tears were the only lelief she found.
There is a joy in grief when peace is fond in
sadness."
The poor girl now felt that she was indeed
alone in the wide world, with no heart to sym
pathize with hers; for the stern thoughtful
mood of her uncle forbade her, when she
would reveal to him her sorrows_and her fears.
She left the arbor and sought her room,
vilefi, throwing herself upon her pillow which
a few hours before she had .pressed= with a
joyous heart, she sobbed herself to sleep L-a
dreamy upcpnsciousness: and there she lay;
often !darting wildly up as. her bewildered
fancy painted horrid spectres, and 'the ghosts
of bloody corses coming up to her view , ban.
ished peace from her perturbed imagination.
CHAFTEE VL
" The morn bath risen clear and cairn,
Revealing waving grovels of palm ;
The nightingale now trod& her flight •
From the high trees, whin all the night
She icing so sweet, with none to tiscten."
Clara awoke in the morning, her cheek film&
ed by the fever-spot and her whole counte
nance betraying the grief-passion that had well
nigh robbed her of reason. "Poor girl! Ste
had passeda fearful night, and' it had left its
traces on every feature. With difficulty she
arose and sought the apartments of her uncle.
1 He was nowhere to he foind, but in b. abort
time returned. He had been walking out,and
looked more than usually melancholy. As he
entered the room and his eyes fell on Clara,
he started with amazement. Her tearful yes
and haggard, sickly countenance spoke!, to'
plainly of the past night's conflict He ad
vanced near her and spoke kindly.'
" Why Clara, my girl, you are unwell, what
can be the matter'!" Clara made no reply f'o ' 1
her heart was too full,—she could not speak.
"Go to your room, Clara, while I procure ma.
ical attendance for you are very side
She'obeyed,' sought her room and threw
herself upon 1.6 couch, the Uneasy couch l that
had been the lone !witness of the last nightie
agony. When the old min returned he found,
his Clara almost-a maniac. The hot, fevered,
blood coursed through her veins which were
swelled to bursting; her brain throbbed wild
ly, and the hectic blossoinwl on her cheek
plainer an4 l still more plain as the silent hours
flow by. Medical skill seemed of no avail.—
The kind hearted uncle watt bed night and day
by her bedside,.with all 'the solicitude of a
father. Clam became delirious. 'AN the gen
tleness of her nature forsook her a$ she raw-
ed with tSsdness.
The old man aryet had never inquired of
her medical adviser as to - ter danger, for he
feared the answer. As be was in attendanee
one evening her uncle could hold outin sus..
pease no longer.' , Ide watched • every 'feature
of the physician's countenance as he laid his
hand on the beating temples of the Poor girl,
and fiumied he six , despair in hislOolsz. "Tell
me," said the anxious uncle, 'can the life of

At thisimontent the door was opened, and

Turning to Clara he said kindly, "heti, is a
letter for you shall I read itr "If yon please,
dear uncle," was the -reply. Ho commenced
and read it through without pausing, and then
turned to Clara; she was suffused with tears.
No! was her uncle less affected); and for a
) while all was silent in that sick chamber, as
I the - charnel house, nave! an occasional sob
deep drawn from the hearts of those who wept.
The old man spoke: "Clara I have done
whai I honestly and religiously deemed a du.
ty..l sent Amulus from our presence to battle
with our common foes, and j dreamed not that
!another heart would love butt even, as mine,
which I thought could be nerved up to bear the
pangs of separation. But I was deceived. I
see and feel now that I have robbed another's
even your heart of its treasure, and in doing
so have well nigh robbed it of power to beat.
Forgive me, and Heaven grant that all may
yet be well."
" Load not yourself with reproaches dear
uncle," replied Clara faintly. "1 too told him
td leave me; that my love was subservient to
the call of his country, he has but obeyed my
most ciarnest wish. I never could have en
de.red the thought that he should hide from
danger . , under the cover of my love."
'Noblest of woman," sobbed out the old
man, with more than Wonted enthrisiasin ; "but
this Subject is too exciting for you, and all
thought of it must be dismissed for the pres
ent."
liop now cheered the heart of the old man,
and lidiwatched over darn :and, ministered to
her watts' with all the !tenderness of filial
love. An , d when ho saw her gradually conva
lescing, his pions soul was often poured out
in thanksgiving and praise; 'ln `a few weeks
the hapless girl had again so far recovered as
to stroll to the old arbor, to which she temed
bound by a bard-like spell, and there she spent
much of her time, lost in pleasing memories.
We must. now leave our lovely Clara and
her venerable unele;ln their &eluded home,
and look after the fortunes' of the youthful he
rn, who, as we have already intimated, . was
dwelling amid the rude scenes of war.
;After leaving Clam' in the arbor, he soon
fohnd himself in the camp of his countrymen.
Its noble bearing, lafty-ambition and generoqii
enthusiasm, won for him the respect and confi
deuce of his comrades. He .was sometimes
sad and melancholy,' always thoughtful.
Pensive demeanor seemed to draw out from
his fellows a kind of sympathetic love. We
havf said he was sometimes sad; it was true.
In spite of the novel and exciting scenes which
surrounded him, thoughts of the past would
come over his inind and cloud his spirits. The
endearments .of home, with all the' fond ass°.
Mations that crowded around it;--ominions
[ fOrebodings of future ill, all rushed upon his
mind; and contributed largely to make him
unhappy; jet, deep down in Ids own heart, he
covered al these, those around him, save
ivhat spok in his - features.

At the tune of which we a speaking, the
system of warfare , adopted by the enemy, was
to overrun the country by constantly 'keeping

The word was given, and that' band of war
rior-spirits dashed down the hill like a hurri
cane. Scare° had the Malcans time to farm in
battle order, ere one fierce yell rose from, that
sweeping column of Texans, that 'echoed up
the mountain side and through the Vale: and a
hundred awards, leaping from thefr l scabbards,
, were buried in the hot blood of the, infuriated
combatants. Socin the groans of dying men
mingled With the UM* of war steeds, the
clashing of steel and the horrid oatbs of des
perate men, struggling hand to hand and face
to . face for victory, for life. 'Both parties fought

Press to certain facts in regard to a Work of
mine, entitled Truth Stranger than fiction. ' '
The following are the .circumatancew,which
caused its publication. A licensed Preacher
of, the Gospel recently connected with the
Theological Seminary of Yale College, put in
to circulation a gross , and disgraceful charge
against a friend and former pupil of the writer;
one which was not only destructive to the la
dy's character Tor modesty; truth and honor,:
but which, whether true or false made it ha
perative, accordin,s,r to the n rules' of social and
ecclesiastical meMlityohat the author, by his 1
own shdwing, should be 'eZeliultsi ' &in the
society of gentlemen; 'avoided by ladies, and;

so enlisting, not only- - hiScompanions, bat his
Theological Instructors,',that, by 'cirmiliting
his story, they made themselves oo amenable
to the charge of slander, that they were oblig,
ed either to, Ocknowledie: - themselves In the
wrong ,or to - maintain that thi; :accusations-,
against the lady were true. 1 They choose the
latterblternative, and thus, though still. tlairn

himself in licensing the young nian, that lie
should be called to account .orr 'Air charge'. of
"calumny, falsehood and conduct dishonorable!

being, with one 'exception, the former pupils
of these Professors, eritered as protest against.
these proceedings, and there was no higher
tribunal of appeal, no method 'of ecclesiastical
