DT SOLITAIIIE. I •
Tom C. Esq., a gatius., whose. ide
of life were on Such a magnificent scale that ,the
outran his interest, capital, and all, was seated up
on the porch of ,
one of,our fashionable hotels in is
large eastern village, one bright Monday morning
co g itatin g how, in the nature of things, it was pos
sible for him to eompa.siii dinner. The long score .
unpaid, which stood recorded on the books within,
precluded the idea of getting one there without the
tin, and numerous searches through sundry pock
ets about his person were unrewarded by a single
shiner. The case was desperate, but great minds
are always equal to:great emergencies, and Torn
was of that order. His coat had been renovated,
by a scourer, for whom he had wriUen a love let.'
ter, his hat had , : been ironed by a good natured
hatter, who had enjoyed his custom in better days,
a new coat of japan varnish had heed 'lavished, uP..
on his cane, his; dicky Was passable, and no gentle
man would think of examining the extremities of
his covering, or pry into the shifts, he had been put
to for a shirt. Tom thought himself posSable, and
he resolved to Pass off for a dinner, if poSsible. A
stranger lolling easily on a settee near loOked vul- 1
nerable, and Trim, approaching him in a very
bland and friendly manner, remarked:
"Excuse me, eir, but you look so much like an
old friend of mine, J. 'D—,,who has resided for
years in , the Seuth, that I can't help addressing
you.' • [ 1 •
'I am from the South. sir,' answered the stran
ger courteously, •but not'the person you speak Of
—know him, however, and ani pleased to amoun
ter a friend of his. 1 . ,
'That's it,' said Torn to himself, lot him as
easy as rolling off a log!"
An animated conversation ensued, which ended
~
by Tom being asked to dine, and .when the! gone
proclaimed the table spread, in walked the stranger
and Torn, arm in 'arm, large as life and twice as
natural. He called the waiters with an air of ease
pasied the stanger s wine with friendly ' s freedom,
laughed musically, jested with spirit, wiped his
mouth with grace, and, in short, erompletely. cap
tivated the iontherner. During the period of
Tom's luxuriating, he was, observed by the land
lord, who, indignant, sent a servant to order him
from the dinners, without- a shadow of prospect
for pay, that he Would stand it no longer. The
servant approached, whispered in his ear, and stood
off to give him room to morel Tom clutched the
Wine bottle, with the intention of hurling it at hig
head, but altered his purpose, and poured out anothkk
er glass, drank it off, looked daggers at the servant
'and in a moment mote smiled confidence upon his
friend. , .
1 ' '
'Would you:believe it,' said Tom to the South
erner, •that since my• absence:from the city for a
fewlaysa past,rival house of our shipping firm'
haswhispered the possibility •of our tailure, and
this [rascally landlord, having heard the calumny
has insulted me here at table by sending a servant
to demand the 'trifling sum I owe him.
The Southerner. was burning with indigna
tion, 1 , , I 1
•It is toohumiliating," added Tom,''not dream
ing of such an outrage, I am untirely, unprovided
at t moment.' i 1
'Here, my dear-fellow,' prpmptly proffered his
friend, there iS my ;pocket book, make use of it
wit out

• 'ou're very kind,' said To, ' very; I will but,
borrlow this $l,OOO bill for a momentl know the
multil can't change it!' ,
M'ith an air of offending dign4, Tom ap
procited the offiee of the hotel, the landlord, frown
ing with anger, stood at the desk, the 'offended
f
'diner out,' put his hand to his eyes,las if hiding
dee emotion, end then addressing the landlord in
a g ref stricken voice, he said :
1 . •
'II never dreamed of such an insult from you

Soith has exPired,-:- and his agent with me to de
liv up the portion bequeathed to mel—it is—it— i

thr.iwing down the $l,OOO bill,—'sie henceforth I
never will enter your door. Just at a time too,' he
fursher added, • hen I had intended to make your
hose my home, and endeavor to male some te

an outrage had been perpetrated upon his oldest
fri rid and customer. These warm expressions

Whene'er the world would not give me love,
•
I've sprung on the spirit's wings above,
To a brighter world of m own.

I have found sweet solac t there;
And pevpled It with the fortes that 'press
Through its paths of life, full of loveliness,
As the roses which they Wear.
I've a tear and a partinglstrain
For the gentle souls—there be many rh—
That shrink like leaves from the wintry touch
. Of a world they lov'd in 'vain:
A tear for the bitter woes
That. lightning like, o'er the spirit glide. • •
And blanch the cheek, when affection's tide
On the young heart backward flows.
. With the staff of Faith in hand,
I borrow wings of thy , viewless wind.
Leave earth and it's sorroits far behind,
' • And I go to the Spirit's Land. •
They are there, and they twelcome me;
The gemle souls, in whoseilove sincere . •
I bad found repose while they linger'd here,

Full of joyous sympathy.,
Like the soft, sweet breath of even,
They, glide, hut without a snood or stir,
O'er'paths of the delicate gossamer,
And they whisper the tal e s of heaven.
My onl!rbrother, too,
,Ile is dwelling there,; and he welcomes me
To the land where our spirits, light and free,
In affection lire anew.
Daily we commune there, . •
And we taste, but far from a world of pain,
AU the innocent joys of life again.
And our voices blend in prayer,
And humbly we worship Thee,
