THE HOUR OF DEATH.
BY MRS. tIEMANS:
Leaves have their time to fall.
And flowers to wither at the north—wind's breath
And stars to stit—but all.
Thou bast all seasons for thine own; 0 Death.:
Day is for rootlet tare,
Eve for glad meetings round the joyful hearth,
Night for the dreams of sleep. the voice of prep
er,
But all fkir thee, thou 14ightiest of tha earth!
The banquet bath ita
Ita feverish bout of mirth,and song, and wine;
There cornea a day for grief's o'crwhelmint
F
A time for softer teare--bol. ail are thine!
Youth and the opening rose
:May look like things too glorious (or decay,
And smile at thee'—but. thus art not °ribose
That Wait the ripen'd bloom to seize thaii prey!
Leavesh aye their time 'to fall,
And flowers to wither at the north•winds breithl
And stare to set-;—but
all-
Thou haat all seasons for thine own, 0 Death!
We know when Moons shall wane,
When iummer•birds from for shall Cross the kap
When Autumn's hoe shall tinge the golden
grain,
gut who shall teach 119 WtICLI to look for thee?
Is it when Spring's first gale
Comes forth to whisper where the violets lie?
lc it when roses in our path 'grow paled
They hate one season—all are ours to die!
•
Thou art where billows foam,
Thou art where music melts upon the air;
Thou art around us i t our peaceful home,
And the world calls as furth—and thon 'eh thief
Thou art wherre friend meets friend,
Beneath the shadow of the elm to rest;
Thuu art where foe meets foe, and trumpet!!
rend
The skies, and swords beat down the pritOzelf

Leaves have their tithe to fall,
And flowers to wither at the north-wind's breath
And stars to set—but all,
Thou halt all seasrms for thine own, 0 Death!
Potish ‘,Voll'shoottng.
The following sketch by a Frenblt
cer may not perhaps be uninteresting. It
certainly gives the picture of a sport, and
as such I consider it may be welcome to
the pages of your Ma&'azihe. WhethN
er any paper on a similar subject has ever
yet appeared, I really cannot positively
Bay, but ratlier think 'not. I give it near•
ly verbatim.
After the peace of Tilsit, 'the corps d 0
arrnee of Marshal Davoust took up their'
quarters in Poland. My regiment was
quartered near Blone, in the neighborhood
of Warsaw. Biltetted myself in the house
of Count Lasseur, in the little village of
Coierki, I re -assumed, as 1 have ever done
when my duties permitted me to do so, the
character of a sportsman. I Ilequently
filled my game bag, and often met with
much success. On one occasion I killed
A wolf, a fact of which 1 was at proud that
when the peasant brought it home to me;
I carried it down in triumph to my hold,
anJ boastingly exhibited it to him.
'ls that all?' asked the Count, with a sneer at the poverty of my sport; is
that all you can do? Why, my friend, if
you like that kind of shooting, I can at
once gratify you. I will show you a mode
by which you may kill ten or a dozen
larger than that any morning you thooset
that is, if yOu think it worth the trouble.'
'The trouble ! I'd travel a hundred
miles to enjoy such sport.'
`Well, t heti, what say you to tosmorrowl'
'With all my heart,' replied 1, and 1 re. ,
tired to my room to prepare for the treat
which awaited me.
The earth was covrred with deep snow,
and the weather was remarkably cold,—
At daybreak I was aroused and inviied;to
enter a sledge, drawn by four horses, and
in which I found the Count already en
sconced, warmly wrapped in furs. As
we were starting, the servant threw itt
tin
der our feet a young sucking pig, which
began squealing oui in such a manner, that
I could scarcely bear its shrill cries.
'Good gracious, sir!' I demanded.;—
.What is that noisy brute placed here
for?'
'You'll see bye and bye. Sit quiet, atd
I'll fulfil my promise.'
'Ali! it's fur our breakfast, I suppose.--
Su►ely if this be the case, you had better
have it killed before slatting.'
'Be quiet, we have athple provisions
without eating this little animal;' and my
friend again relapsed into smoking silence,
drawing on his ample meershaum for pres
ent enjoyment.
The horses now plunged into the forest
at full gallop. The little pig tired of
squealing become mute. I confess the
whole affair puzzled me.
When we had traveled about three
leagues, the Count suddenly addressed
the.
'Pull his ear)
Whose ear?'
•The pig's.'
I did ro, and the little thing began cry
ing out in the most piercing and piteotisl
manner, making the whole forest around
ring with its thrill voice. In leas than
five minutes three large wolves appeared
and started cft in pursuit of the sledge. I
now understood, for the first time that
sucking friend was to act as a decoy to
tract these ravenous animals.
Although as yet too far off' to justify*
shot at them, I was doubtful whether I'
would take a pop at them, when the ehaa
seur suddenly threw 4own a mall pig's
skin staffed with straw. which he kid at*
