To him who in the love of nature holds
Communion with her visible forms, she speaks
A various languagef; for his gayer hours
She has a voice of gladness, and a smile
And eloquence of beauty, and she glides
Into his darker mii4ngs, with a mild
A n d h ea li ng syinpthy, that steals away .
Their sharpness erhe is aware. When thet's
Of the last bitter hour come like a blight
Over thy spirit, and sad images
Of the stern agony,and shroud, and pall,
And breathless darkness, and the narrow house,
Make thee to ,ladder, and grow sick at
heart;— f
Go forth, under thq.open sky, and list
To nature's teachings, while from all around—
Earth and her wants, and the depths of air—
Comes a still vnice-t , -Yet a few days, and thee
The all•beholding inn shall see no more,
In all his course; ti % tztr yet in the "cold ground,
Where thy pale fur l ' was laid, with many tears,
Nor in the embracefof ocean shall exist
Thy image. Eartb4 that nourished thee shall
claim 5
Thy growth, to be tiesolved to card; again,
And, lost each hum*n trace,..„surrendering up
Thine individual luting, shalt thou go,
To mix forever wits the elements,
To be a brother to !the insensible rock,
And to the sluggish• clad which the rude swain
Turns with his shark, and treads upon. The
oak
Shall send his roe* abroad, and pierce thy
mould.
Yet not to thine etetnal resting-place.
Shah thou retire alone—l - Icor couldst thou wish
Coach more magnifitent. Then shalt lie down
With patriarchs of the infant world—with
kings,
The powerful of tlni earth, tlA : wise, the good,
Fair forms, and hos)" , seers dirt - 1;0 past,
All in one mighty i*pulchre.—The 'hills
Rock-ribbed •and ancient as the snn—the vales
Stretching in pensie quietness 'between ;
The venerable woods—rivers thsi move -
In majesty, and thelcomplaining brooks
That make the me4dows green; and poured
round all. t
Old Ocean's gray siid melacholy waste,—
Are hut the solemOdecorations all •
Of the great tomb of man. The golden sun,
The planets, all the infinite host of heaven,
Are shining a the* abodes of death.
Tnrough the still lifiseof ages. • All that tread,
The globe are but 4} handful to the tribes
That slumber in itebosoni. —Take the wings
Of morning—and tse Bateau deserts pierce,
Or lost thyself in the continuous woods,
Where roils the Ortgan, and'bears-no sound
Save his own dr:Stings—yet-46e dead are
% . "4.
there :
And millions in tholle solitudes, since first
The night of years began, hare laid them down
In their last sleep—ithe dead reign there alone:
So shalt thou rest-4 w'
a . i nd what if thou withdraw
Unheeded by the liting—and no friend .
Take note of thy departure? All that breathe
Will share thy destiny. The gay will laugh
When thou art goni, the solemn brood
_dears
Plod on, and each Ore as before wi ll .chase •
His favorite phantoOn ; yet all these shill leave
Their mirth and tli¢ir employments, and. shall
,
come, '
And make their bed with thee. As' the long
train • .
Of ages glides awa the sons of men,
The youth in life's ireen spring, and _lke who
goes, n
Is the full strengtli t of years, matron ahilmaid,-
And the sweet babOnd the gray-haired man—r•
Shall one by one, b gathered to thy side,
By those, who in *sir turn shall follow them.
So live, that whettliJiy summons comes to join
The innumerable **van that moves -
TO that mysteriou.S;4ealm where csinh shall take
Ills chamber in thgsilent halla of death,
Thou go not like - WS quarry slave at night,
Scourged to his dMigeon, bat, sustained and
soothed •
By an unfaltering imst, approach thy grave.
Like one who wratils the drapery of his couch
About him, and liedown to pleasant streams.

with tears, sprang into hi carriage and drove
rapidly away. As the! rattlii4 of the carriage

air resounded with the:weeping and lamentai•
Hobs of these stern warriors. Josephene said
that Napoleon was the most fascinating of men.
He certainly must have hid a • warm heart of
his own, or he never could have beelame so per.
fectly the master of tub affections of others.
As Napoleon, deserted by his wife and child, •
took his solitary way to Elba,often overwhelmed
with the profoundest grief, and again rousing
his energies to smile at the caprice of fortune,
Maria, with the young king of Rome, entered
herearriage to return , to the palaces of her
father.. 'She was,silent and dejected. In an
hour, as it were, she had been plunged from
the very pinnacle of. earthly splendor into de. 1
pendence, obscurity, friendlessness and uncer.
taiaty. . She was extremely solicitous in refer. 1
ence to her future lot. By abandoning the re.'
fined fortunes of -her husband, she hoped to se. I
cure for herself a better inheritance than had i
been allowed- hiin. Alone and ungreeted, she'
retraced the route by which, four years before, i
she had heed cenducted a bride and a queen,
surrounded by more than imperial splendor,
and welcomed by the acclamations' of thirty
millionkof voices.. The few remarks, however, I
which she made, showed that her thoughts l
wer intent her own lost grandeur, and
that she had almost forgotten her husband and
her child.- She was a daughter of the. Cmsartl, 1
and longed for Cassar's share of the loaves and
fishes.
-- Efaiingarrived iit Atihtri'a," she took e up bef
residence for a time at the chateau of Simon!
brun, a few miles from Vienna, a magnificent
pleasure palace, belonging to the Austrian
kings: -Here the allied sovereigns were as•
sembled, reveling in wine and wassail. In the
midst'of their imperial carousing:4, with songs,
and. dinees, and the Most voluptuous 'icon'
tionsness, they were quarrelling 7:bout-the divii
sion of - their booty. The Emperors of Austria
and Russia, the Kings of Prussia, Denmark
Bavaria and Wjrtemburg; Sovereign Dukes
and Grand Dukes without number, and a count'
less throng . of ambantadors from England,
France, Spinn, Portugil, Italy, and all the
Countries and provineen of Europe, had there
gathered in - the Scramble for the spoil of Napo ,
Icon. Jeweled courtesans thronged the mast
queride bills of
-these royal revelers, and min=
gled with the gorgeous throng upon the Prater,
in gilded` chariots, and glittering diamonds.
Queens in masquerade condescended to fiirtal
tiots with the motley yet resplendent crowd,
Ind all hearts were surrendered to the doming

In the midst of this " mob of kings," eagerly
watching. her interests and urging her claims. i
On the 28th of April, 1814, Napoleon set
sail trim France for his exile in Elba The
I nation !Was soon weary of the imbecile flour-1
bons, and longed for the return of their Em-i
perm; ivho commanded the respect of the world.
On thd let of March, 1815. Napoleon landed
again anon the shores of France. The Coo
-1 gress 0. Vienna was still in sessis.n. And it is'
a curbnis illustration of these crowned heads, I
that the announcement that Napoleon had re-
turnedi that France was receiving him with ac
clamation, and tbe terror-stricken Bourbons
•were fleeing from their throne, was received ,
with uncontrollable bursts of laughter. ! j
The quarrel among the allied monarchs had •
now risen to such a pitch that they were just i '
I upon the point of hurling their armies upon , '
each other, when the fugitive Bourbons ap
pearedamong them, pallid with fearancl,im-
i ploringbelp. Theallies were compelled to bu- !
ry all their animosities in combining against ~
the common foe. Maria, fearing that her• in -i•
terests)migh Cho endangered by this movement ,
of the ',Emperor, took very special pains to in-1
form tle allies that sho had no sympathy with
NapolOn in his heroic enterprise, and that she ,
would fin no account reunite herself with him'
and return to Frame. But when the army
and the nation hod received Napoleon with ;
!shenteo f welcome, and he was again seated
' upon tile throne where he had reigned with so
much glory, and all Europe was trembling with
the apprehension that he would come down up
on there with terrible retribution, then Maria
longetto return to the grandeur of the Tail- .
i
leries, and to share again the renown' of her
ri mperial sponse. But she was ashamed to do '
' so. Spe had so selfishly abandoned him in the
hours orinisfortnne; that She could net stitii.l
' mon stjfficient effrontery to rush into his em
brace
m the day of triumph. In the perplexi- •
ty inttii4hichshe was thrown by the mingled;
emotions of hope and dread which now, oppresS- •
ed herlshe' was heard to say, as if thinking a.;- . 1
loud, llf I could only be assured that he
would pot blame me for not having gone to El-
ba"— and then after a pause, as if in conclu
sion
ofla train of inward thought—" but I am
sstrrottpded by persons who cannot fail to have
inculpkted me.' , It Itas evident that her mind'
was ill'itt ease, from the many excuses she made
to the* around her for the course she had pur- I
sued. ;She endeavored to appease her oWn 1
self‘reproaches, by stating that " necessity had I
compelled -her," that she " was not mistress of '
her own -actions," that "she could not disobey
her father," that 4 Austrian princesses were'
merelvttools in the 'hands of the head of the
family.' and finally, that- she "was horn under
a malignant star, and was never destined to be
happy. ; ' None of these excuses, however,
would tsvail to quiet the condemning sentence
of her Own conscience; and she was 'at last
constr*ined to avow, that having refused 'tol
share t apoleou's disgrace, she was ashamed to
part* of a, prosperity. 'which • she • had, -done'
nothing to promote. There is here a glowworm

Exet , and who died lamented by all who knew
her, h s something so uncommonly interesting
in the istory of her life, that a 'detailed sketch
e i
eanno but be acceptable to. every reader of ien=
sibility. When the Earl was a minor,lhe mar
ried a lady from whom he was afteerds di
vorced, After the separition had taken place,
the Ea rl .(his allele) advised -him toi ! retire into
the eoiintry for home time, and pass as a private
gentleinan. Mr. Cecil accordingly bent his
course into a remote part of Shropshire ; and'
fixing his residence at an inn in a small village,
he amused himself there for some months, pri
sing by the name of Jones. Ile took a dislike
to this situation, and sought out a farm-house
where he might board and lodge. Several fam
ilies refused.to receive him, but at ! length he
found a. situation which answered his purpose ;
and in censiderition of his liberal effers, and
the knowledge of his possessing money, a farmer
fitted tip rooms 'or his aecorninodati n. Here
he continued to reside for about two Tara ; -but

The farmer, at ihoise house Mr. Ceciilreqed, I
had a daughter about seventeen, wbese rikstict,

be had ever beheld in the circle of fashion.—
Although placed in an bumble sphere Mr. Cecil..
perceived that her beauty would adorn, and her
virtue shed a lustre on the 'most elev4ted situa
tion. He, iherefore,'franklY told the cottagers
that he was desirims of marrying theirldangbter,
and the celebration of their nuptials *as accor
dingly consummeted. Shortly afterivards, the
news arrived of his uncle's death, when he found
it necessary to repair to town. c Mr. Cecil (now ,
Earl of Exeter,) taking his wife with him, set,
out on his journey, -and called at the seats of
several noblemen, at which places, to the great
astonishment of his wife (now,eif courae a Coun-
tess) he was welcomed in the roost friendly man- '
ner. At length they arrived at Burghley, where
they were welekimed with acclamations of joy:
As soon as he had settled his affairs, the Earl
of Exeter returned to Shropshire, discovered his
rank to 'Ms wife's father and Mother, :put them
into theliouse be bad built there, andtsettled on
them an income of £7OO-per annum. ;He after
