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.

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 ued to move along under her top gal lant canvass, and it was not until ev ery thing indicated a heavy instant blow, that the veteran skipper con cluded to take another reef in the top-sails. 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 arm of her father, she stood upon the quarter-deck, listening with owe to the roaring ol the wind, as it howl ed through the cordage, and the thunders oi the deep, as each wave roded over its precursor. At times a vivid flash from some overcharged ( loud would light up the scene with terrible splendor; and it was then that all the fearful inagnificience of the tempest became apparent; and the fair girl would tremble with af fng- 1, as she saw each giant wave 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 happy ancestors is doomed to cruise until tile last day,’ The daughter shuddered at the re collection ol her mvsterious relative, I and only giaspcd her parent’s arm m reply. All this while the Great Frede rick had been before the wind, dash ing onward at a trernendaous rate. 1 he commander hi?nself was at the w heel, watching eat h cornming wave with anxiety, and disposing the rud der to receive the shock without pre jut.ice to the huge jabric it guided. The braces were kept manned fore S3.
