of the "The Old Man's Poem," by Horace Smith,
which appears in the London New Monthly Magazine
for March.

Aigaults and villifies old age,
'Tie still life's golden era;
IN plossures' wisely understood,
All hallowed, and unfailing good,
Its evil °chimera.

Helding the privilege at will,
To seize him by the forelock;
On me would he return the grasp
He finds there's nothing left to clasp,
Not e'en a single hoar lock•
.
We blame th' idolatrous divine,
Who gilds and decorates his lamina,
Its deity neglected;
let our self-adoration blind
Is body-worship; to the mind
No reverence directed.
Gray beards there are, who, thinking Art
Can conquer Nature, play the part
Of adolescent friskers,
Swindlers and counterfeits of truth,
They strive to cheat us by failie youth,
False teeth, hair, eyebrows, wt . & kera.
While to the fraine due care I give,
No masquerader will I live,
No vain appearance pander;
Bnt ratl, , r seek to cart from blight
My mind in all its pristine plight
Ofeheeri'ulnca and candor..
A y suthlul cheer sustains us old,
As arrows best their course uphold;
Winged by the lightsome feather,
Happy the young Did man who thus
Sears, like a human arbutus
Life's flowers and fruits together
To dark oblivion I bementh
The ruddy check, brown hair, white to h.

Still tuaiter'd by the stern control
Of some tyrannic passion;
While my pouibody,servilotocA ,
The livery wore of fop and foal,
