*' Love roles the court, the camp the grove.
For Love is Heaven, and Heaven is Love.'
So sang the Bard ; yet thousands pine
For love—of life the light divine—
Who, did tbey know some gentle charm,
The hearts ol those they love 10 warm,
Might live, might die, in bliss Supreme,
Possessing all ol.which they dream.
The road to Wedlock would you know 1
Delay not, but to HONDOUT go.
Time flies, and from his gloomy wings
A shadow falls on living things;
Then seize the moments as tbev pass,
Ere fall the last sands through the glasa;
At least the present is your own,
While all the future is unknown.
A happy marriage man or maid
Can now secure by BONDOUT'S aid.

A ROMANCE--BY FANNY FERN.
The Inst work, and first continuous tale of
of this brilliant and fascinating authoress,
1 Huth Hull," achieved a success unexam
pled irt the annals of letters, lit the language
of a leading periodical, it "created a more
profound sensation than any which has been
issued during a quarter of a century." But
it is unnecessary to allude to the merits of
"Ruth Hall." Judging from the number of
copies of it we have sold, we judge that
every body in the U. States has read it. As
respects the work we have now in press, ROSE
CLARK, we can only say that we regard it aa,
in every respect, a giealer, better work ; and
ate confident it wilt not only sustain, but
even increase the reputation of its distinguish
ed authoress We have reasons lor think
ing "Rose Clark" will makes greater sensa
tion than did "Ruth Hall."
It will form an elegant 12 mo. volume of
