FROM THE LECOMINO FREE PRESS MT SPIRITS' LYRE. My Spirits' Lyre has lost the tone That rang so proud and high, And emswers with a deep low moan Even to the touch of Joy. The sweetest of its tuneful strings Dark Fate has torn away, And all its fitful murmurings Mourn tlto lost melody Young Friendship pour'd her holiest lay In childhood's happiest home, Before along life's pilgrim way My feet had learned to roam. But some young bands that woke their string To this high holy lay, Lie on the still breast mouldering, And sonic arc fur away. It had a chord attuned to FAME, That Mercy snatched away; She sought to save a Wolllllll'B name From envious calumny. Young Hope no longer crowns the Lyre With wreaths of brilliant flow'rs, And bids the trembling soul aspire To sweet and sunny hours; For cold Experience stole her wreaths And hung them o'er a tomb, And now this only lay she breaths "Peace in the life to come." But Sympathy's elastic strings - Their full dcep tone retain; And drooping Sorrow often brings Her wild and sobbing strain. Woe to the wreek'd and shivering Lyre, Whose joyous chords are riven: Till it awakes to extacy— Strung and [inured in Heaven. Lint:wry, P.t. LYDIA JANE TO MY 1117117 E. When on thy bosom I recline, rtraptur'd still to call thee mine, To call thee mine for life , I glory in the sacred ties, Which modern Wits and fools despise, Of Husband and of Wife, One mutual flame inspires our bliss; The tender look, the melting kiss, Even years have not destroyed; Some sweet sensation, over 11011", Springs up and proves the musing true, That Love can ne'cr be cloy'd.

Wo have long suspected that there were exceptions to the general rule, and do conscienti ously believe, that if old bachelors were treated with alittle more Christian charity; if a sunny smile from an arch blue eye was occasionally di rected towards them; if greeted with a kind look instead of a frown, a cordial welcome Matelot of a cold recognizance and an indifferent toss of the head; if young holies, taking pity on the forlorn condition of an old bachelor, would deem it an act of duty to pet them a little more than they do, ninny a heart that now resembles the "wind of the winter night," would be soothed and subdued; many an icicle would be melted; many a withered shrub would be transphuded and flourish in a warmer clime. I had an invitation to spend an evening lately . . with an old friend in St. Mark's 'flare. "It is the anniversary of my wedding day, and I have always celebrated it," said he; "we shall have a pleasant family party: do come, and, if you please, bring a friend or two. We shalt have some music—probably a dance." He was a mer chant, in easy circumstances; prudent and sys tematic in all his concerns; enjoying life dis erectly; living well and within his income; hos pitable in reason, and occasionally happy to see ii ; friend; possessing good taste and good temper, a sound judgment, and a love of rational enjoy ment. I determined to go; and if possible, to persuade my old friend and companion Tom Courtney, to accomp an y me. It War; ton o'clock when I called in at his lodgings. Tom was OD Old bachelor of fortune and talent; he had, for many years, rented a parlor and .bed-rooth, in whin he would sleep and, breakfast; read, write and ride until three; and then, in old times, take I , his dimier at the City Hotel, but, in later peri ads, call for his macaroni at Delmonieo's; a can yams back at Mealy Welch's. or, a live o'clock. dinner with Milford; would "drop in" at, an ear ly hour with me on Sunday—for I dine early on that day to let the maids go to church; and fre quently had the pleasure of his company to tea and toast, in the evening. He was. an admirer of beauty; never railed against matrimony; and yet never received any encouragement to wed.— The ladies all appeared to like hint, without car ing for him; and in old times, when stiffness and fastidnonstiess were unknown, Tom Away.. got his kiss from the girls without fighting for it, in playing forfeits and hunt the slipper. He was a man to like, but not to love; he took no pains to attract, and the girls considered him an old card, shufled into the pack, and not allowed to pair oft with any mate, Tom was out when I called; and although it was ten o'clock his bed was not yet made; every thing around looked cold Mid comfortless; the cinders filled the dust pan; feath ers were collected en masse under the bed; bits of, candle were on the mantle pcicc; it broken wine glass or two; here a coat; there a waistcoat; a night cap, not of castaliun whiteness, lay on an easy chair, which was covered with old dimity; slippers lay in a corner; a tooth brush and hair brush on a small mahogany stand—half the wardrobe stood open. Every thing denoted sin gle wretchedness. I scrawled a billet With my pencil, informing him that at dusk I should expect to find him at hime, and left the moat, not even alarming that faithful record of Celibacy, an old cut, who was dozing near the fender. I found him punctual to the hour, dressed ra ther more gay than usual, and in excellent spirits. We were soon in St. Mark's Place, and were cor dially received by my friend and ushered into the well lighted, handsomely furnished, and most comfortable drawing rooms. We were soon sur rounded by groups of ladies and gentlemen; tea was handed around, and conversation became lively and entertaining. Tom tried several times to simile out of the coil, and cast an anxious look in the corner, hoping to make a retreat to the whist table when a little scene occurred, which lixed his attention and created no ordinary Inter est his mind. The lady and gentleman of .the house, must unfashionably sonic would say were seated together on the sofa, when the door opened and a fine little fellow, neatly dressed, about nine years of age, with an open, manly countenance, entered the room; he was followed by a delicately.. funned handsonw boy, of about seven, and a chub by, full faced fellow, with golden hair, of five, and a nurse having a little girl in her arias.; of be witching sweetness and beauty, who presented her mother with a rich boquet of flowers—the boys had each sonic trifling gift for their father, and were each repaid with a kiss and a tender caress of congratulation. The company gathered round the group. "It is the anniversary of my wedditig day," said my friend, "and my little ones aro presenting their usual gift." "Joy Joy," re sounded throughout the rooln--"May you live long and happy," "a thousand joyful returns," were re-eheed by the company. "They arc all joyful returns," said my friend. "Never was the wedded state more happy. Ten years have I been married, and in that time not a cloud has for u moment obscured the golden sunshine of my happiness—hot dil unkind word or look have I re ceived from my beloved companion. By a happy union of tempers—by mutual confidence, mutual respect, and mutual forbearance—by studying each other's wishes and comforts, and rendering our home happy and tranquil, ten years have passed like a single month—the came gay, cloud- less, cheerful honey-moon and this surroimded by our friends, and these endearing pledges of af fection, I have a right to say to all who are single and are near me, lose no more time—be happy as I am; life is short—pleasure is transitory—e-seek for happiness in the bosom of your family."

Every one's experience will approve this. Unfortunately, the votary of pleasure rarely draws a useful lesson from this fact. It does not scent to him, that if the excitement in which he has sought to find pleasure has not yielded it., but has invariably produced a reaction which sinks him into the lowest depth of misery, perchance a uniform evenness of temper, and a seeking for en joyment in the calmness of right thoughts may bring that which he so ardently desires. In well regulated affections alone can be found true enjoy ment. There must be a calmness of thought—an even going temper—and a rationality about our pursuits, and pines in weariness and pain for no bler joys. S SHE ENOAGED?

In a dissenting Chapel in England, a for eigner noticed the ladies' bows on their bonnets oddly arranged, some on the left and others on the right side, while others . were directly in front. It was found on enquiry, that married ladies had the bow on the right side, young maidens on the left, and those "engaged" wore them on the front their bonnet:4!

I once heard a young lady exclaim, "Do you think I would be seen walking with a mechanic!" The individual referred to was a young Blacksmith, very intelligent and of excellent moral character; and what made the exclamation the more remark able was, that the father of the young lady had worked at the same trade until -he had acquired a fortune of between 20 and 30 thousand dollars, with which he had retired from business. Misfor tunes, however, have since that time dissipated his earnings, and he is now, in old age, making a liv ing at the occupation she so much despised. The lady herself,eveli during the prosperity of her fam ily, made a runaway match with a carpenter.— He was a man of good education, and sound sense, and has been called from the saw and jack-plane to fill several important public offices; and at the present time is a representative of his native state in the legislature. This is not a solitary instance of the children of tradesmen despising the profes sion which raised them front obscurity; biff the fact does almost stand alone, of a person whose' mind was warped by prejudice and education, get ting so fur the better of those feelings as to Murry an independent man, for such we consider every man who is master of a trade. If he posseses in- I dustry and the least ingenuity, lie is certain, while in health, of being able to command all the com forts of life; and yet parents who by-honest in dustry have been enabled to educate their children better than they were themselves, are ambitious of forcing them into professions, when it frequently happens they are not able-to assist them further. Then, if they are not possessed of extraordinary talents or money, or influential friends, the chalice is against their getting forward in life; they must live as well as other men, and they either become a burden to their relations or a pestilence to socie ty. Even those who are more successful, often become beggars for offices, and dependents upon great men's influence. This baneful to society at large. For in stance, you go to the house of worship, to receive instructions from a man who has not assumed the calling for the purpose of serving his Creator, or for the salvation of souls j but that he may obtain a living by it. Doctors who have but few patients are obliged to make the most they can of those few, by charging exorbitant prices for their atten dance besides losing the opportunity of the experi ence mid knowledge they would acquire in a more extensive practice. In like manlier, Lawyers arc almost compelled to forego their better feelings, to cringe and sue for office, or protract the suits of their clients for an unreasonable length of time that they may reap all the advantages possibly from such a course. No man who is a sincere patriot, and who has ever seriously considered the subject, can wish to place his son among the mass of those who are preying upon the vitals of our country's prospeti ty, and destroying the moral tone of her society— I mean the idle and the needy; There is an idea of degradation attached to the mechanical professions which is easily accounted for; those who are able to educate their sons liber ally, invariably make Paramus, Lawyers, or Doc tors of them. It follows of course, that feW but the poorest and most ignorant, learn trades. Now, els we cannot admire of reaped ignorance,of course, we are apt to attach an idea of degradation to the mere mechanic. We knt4i that the examples are numerous of higinninded and intelligent persons among the working men; but it is not often con ceded to therm yet all must acknowledge there is as much integrity, and full as much honesty among them, as are to be found in MI equal nuniber of any other class of society: A general system of education will raise the working titan in tho scale of intellect, to a level with those of the jearned professions, and this will more elFectually do away with this distinctions and prejudices of society than any other scheme that WaT,ll9l l 'ffo LIOXIDATIIIO DT:WM="lqt.
