Thin shadowy forms are hovering In the air around us spread ; And we feel their hallowed presence, In the daily paths we tread ; Their soft eyes are kindly *listening Down in many a golden brain ; Theirs the hands that gently scatter Heavenly roses on our dream.

And they weave meet opens of music O'i.r the troubled heart to glide, AO uphold souls alnioat •inking Down in Wee cold rapid tide.

The echo of burriing feet has long since died away. The maiden dreams of her lover ; the wife, of her absent hus band ; the sick, of health ; the captive, of Freedom. Softly falls the moonlight on those quiet dwellings ; yet under those roofs are hearts that are throbbing and breaking with misery too hopeless for tears ; forme bent before their time with crushing f c, sorrow;`tu lips that never s , save when some mocking dream come render the morrow's wakening tenfold re bitter.— There on a mother's fuithf breast, calm 1 and beautiful, lies the holy brow of infan cy. Oh ! could it but pas away thus ! ere the bow of promise haveceased to span its future—ere that serenestuy be darken ed with lowering clouds ; ire that loving' heart shall feel the death pseg of despair. There, too, sits Remorse, clothed in purple and fine linen, "the worm that never dioth," hid in its shining folds.— There, the weary watcher by the couch of pain, the dull ticking of the clock striking to the heart a nameless terror. With straining eye, itsifurs are counted ; with nervous hand, .the draught that brings no healing, is held to the pallid lip. The measured tread of the watchman, as he passes his round ; the distant rumble of the coach ; perchance the disjointed fragments of a song from bacchanalian lips, alone breaks the solemn stillness. At such an hour serious thoughts, like un bidden guests, rush in. Life appears like the dream it is ; Eternity, the waking ; tied involuntarily, the most careless eye looks up appealingly to Him by rhom the hairs of our head are all nat*rid. Blessed night I Wrap thy dark' mantle round these weary earth pilgrims. Over them all, the "Eye that never slutnbereth" keepoth its tireless watch. Never Oho tering sigh escapes a human breast unheard by that pitying' ear. Never an unspoken prayer for help that finds not its pitying re sponse in the bosom of infinite Mercy.— Mr*. Mary Denison.

"Oh ! Henry, dear don't go talking about expenses ; your business is soigood, it will warrant a little outlay, you told me so yourself. Come, I will economise in other things—just look now at these dingy black closets." He half agreed with her as she opened the really dismal place.— "I shouldn't wonder if they were filled with vats and vermin. Now let's go up stairs; see how the paper is torn offend patched—and worse and more of it, there is but one upright chamber in the house. Mother's last words to me were, do get upright chambers, for they look so pretty when they are well furnished. And here in front of the house is a wretched great hole—" "But in the summer," put in Henry. "Oh ! 1 know what you would say. I suppose there is water there sometimes; but half of the year it will he a most detes table sight. Then the trees so close to the house—l've always heard that trees make a house very damp and uncomfortable— no, I'm sure you wont try to make me live in such a place, after all the com forts I've been used to. Como lot us go— for really, I am quite melancholy already." Henry resigned the key, one half con.: winced by his wife's reasoning. He loved her, and wanted to make her happy ; but just starting in iife, bow was he to main tain style and extravagance T He liked the little cottage, but was persuaded a• gainst his better judg4ent to refuse it. About an hour after, a plain carriage drove up, and a sprightly young wan lifted a sweet, blue-eyed girl to the ground, say ing as be did so, "Now prepare to be dis appointed." "I am not in the least with the ezterior." she exclaimed, pausing—"o4 ! how cub ning—bow neat what a tine place for a garden ! and those dear little trees—and this wilderness of roseabuahes I I declare, I never was so ,pleased with any thing in my life.
