FffNHE exercise of this institution will be

From the flaiterii g encouragement we have
received during the present year, we have made

the most influential gentlemen in the United

We have made arrangements to have a
Steward’s Hall attached to the Institution, at i
the head ot which will be Mrs. D’t.B I E, an I
elderly lady, whose domestic habits and ex
pt rience in the government of young ladies, j
are very higidy extolled. We have been led I
to this step, from the incon. emeiice winch
oung ladies experience in going to and cjtii
tng fiom their boarding houses during inc le

io the d'liiu-siH arrangements of ottn r houses,

of having all the young ladies, ai all mn-s,
under the supervision of the teachers, as many
of them are di posed t® neglect their studies,

TRUTH AND FALSHOOD.
EY R. H. XVII.DE.
There’s a tuneful river,
In Erin’s Isle, —
Where the sunbeams quiver
In silvery smile;
Where the leaves that fall
’Neath the Autumn sky,
Grow gem-like all,
And never die;
And such is 'he stream by Truth enlightened,
That leaves the breast by Wisdom brightened,
Where even the joys i bat the storms dissever,
Are turned to gems that flow forever.
There’s a darkling tide
In the Indian clime,
By whose herbless side
There’s a sulphury slime—
To the flower that it toucher,
A scorching w ave—
To die bird that approaches,
A weltering grave :
And such are the waters of bitterness rising
In the desert bosom of daik disguising ;
And the birds of Joy, and the flowers of Feeling,
Must perish wherever that wave is stealing.
iseel ia neous.

A SKETCH.,
BY THE AUTHOR OF ‘JACK MARLINSPIKE’S
YARN,’ ‘THE ESCAPE,’ ECT.
The suh was setting in a sea of
clouds, while his yellow beams glar
ed forth through their many embra
zeures like the rays of some mighty
conflagration through the walls that
enclosed it. Huge masses ol heavi
er and darker vapor were piling up
to windward, anti lighter scuds were
seen hurrying wildly across the hea
vens. Ihe sea grew blacker, and
dashed against the firm sides of the
Great Frederick, with a deep hollow
hoarseness, & the breze came fresh
er and colder across the agitated ex
panse. Still the gallant ship contin

lant canvass, and it was not until ev
ery thing indicated a heavy instant
blow, that the veteran skipper con

i here was one fair being on board
the ship who had never before
beheld the elements in so terri
ble a convulsion. Leaning on the

thunders oi the deep, as each wave

terrible splendor; and it was then
that all the fearful inagnificience of
the tempest became apparent; and
the fair girl would tremble with af

above her, threatening to all, certain
dcstuction in its decent.
‘\V e are now off the (‘ape of Good
Hope,’ .said the father, ‘and it is in
these latitudes that one of our un

w heel, watching eat h cornming wave
with anxiety, and disposing the rud

jut.ice to the huge jabric it guided.
