Turn where I will, there are pleasure and gladness, Musics soft flow, and joys Almost divine, Radiant eyes that seem mocking my sadness, Over the flow of their amber-hued wine. Beautiful forms are whirled by in the dances, Faces that flash on me out of a dream 1 Shine, ye bright jewels, and yet brighter glances, Melt my cold heart with your glittering beams ! Coldly I roam ’mid the glow and the glitter, *' Careless of splendors that weary me so, Feeling, alas! that my heart has grown bitter Under its burden of sorrow and woe. Still I must stifle my moans and my sighing, Deck my wan face in the ghost of a smile, ' Chatter and sing while my hopes are all lying . Dead in the depths of my bosom the while. Little they think when my laugh rings the lightest, Of the torn heart that is beating below; Or, when the rose on my cheek burns the brightest, . Little they dream 'tis despair feeds the glow. - Never again shall I wander beside thee Through the loved scenes where bright memories dwell; Blessings attend thee, whatever betide thee, ’Tis my heart’s prayer as I murmur—farewell.

BY AUNT ALICE. neither of them spoke of Miss Nightshade. Henry knew the older boys would not think of writing to the unknown lady, but he had feared that Frank might venture, as he had been snubbed by the girls in town as well as himself. “ No, he was safe—had she not said that he, and he alone, was the favored one?” He took the precious letter from his breast pocket, and read it again. “ Dear girl,” he thought, “ I love her already.” He felt cer tain that Jim and Dan would yet envy him. Saturday night came at last., dark and rainy. “ The Dove” had gone up in the mor ning, and would be back at the landing on its wav down the river bv seven o’clock. Henry put on his best suit, and was all ready by five o’clock. He dare not go out of his room until it was quite dark, for fear his fine clothes might be noticed; he sat in his room when the boat’s whistle sounded, and his heart thumped audibly. The rain came down in torrents, but he found an umbrella in the hall, as he crept cautiously to the front door. Out in the street many people were mov ing about, some with lanterns, others in dark ness, all going down to the river. . r It was customary for half the men and boys to go down to every boat that landed; so Henry went on unnoticed in the darkness. Arriving at the landing the crowd stopped, for the boat hands were busy rolling on freight; the wet, slippery planks were not very safe, and the hands had possession of it Henrv watched his chance and followed a the only victim, he became as noisy as the others; stepping forward, he offered his bat tered \and muddy hat to Miss Rosa, and turn ing, fied as if for life from the boat, followed by his companions. Out of our twenty young gents, eighteen had answered the ad vertisement of Miss Nightshade, each one thinking that he alone was the favored one, their answers being precisely the same.

There was an oyster supper that night in the back room of one o f our stores, and very exhilarating those oysters must have been, to have caused all that shouting and uproar. There were some red eves at church next « day, not caused by the sermon, and an incli nation to laugh, if eye met*eye.

Henry felt it a personal insult, to hear the innocent Rosa spoken of in such a manner ; # it was cruel. He knew what it was to be bashful, and felt for her. “ Ob, she’s some old maid,” said Dan Hol liway, “ she Will not get me in her net;’’ while James Dawson wondered aloud if any fool would be queer enough to write to her.

Henry reached the table before he looked up; then the old man, raising his hand as if to command silence, raised his venerable head, and displayed tEe black face of the colored steward ! :.
