I Dreamed.
Flowers were blooming round, and
naught
But things of beauty met the eyes;
Nature it seemed this spot had sought,
And lavished there its thousand dyes.
I heard a loved voice whisper in mine
ear, ,
I trembled as it told me I was dear—
Trusting, I woke—’Twas but a dream.
Proudly I paced an Ancient Hall,
While thoughts of valiant glory hung
Arouud my soul, to memory’s call
Again the shout of victory rung,
Again I saw my fathers proudly fling
The gauntlet down, while bards their
praises sing—
Proudly, I woke—Lo! ’twas a dream.
I flew to Italy’s bright land,
Humbly I knelt before the shrine
Where gloriously that classic band
Their wreaths of fadeless Laurel twined.
Poets and Painters, Warriors, all whose
fame
• Adds to the lustre of their country’s
name—
Adoring—l woke me trom a dream.
The wintry blasts, now whistled shrill
Through leafless trees, o’er snow clad
earth,
Yet merry we, as if no chill
Had bound us to the homestead hearth,
We daneed the gladsome reel, or stories
told
• Os Ladies fair as noon and Knights as
bold—
Listening—l woke me from a dream.
Then dream my soul dream on,
Life’s but a dream, that lover’s vow,
Ancestral Hall, Italia's Band are gone—
And memory’s long vista how
Gives but a shaded picture of that band
Who danced the gladsome reel—’neath
winter’s hand—
Then (lream ou m y sou i ) d rearn on .

Curiosities of Fashion,
It is a question, I think, whether
the fashion influences the age, or the
ago moulds and shapes the fashion,
but it is obvious tbat there exists a
subtle relationship between them.—
A high-bred courtesy, a certain eles
vation of manner, a loftiness of lan
guage, and even a refinement of
thought, seem naturally to associate
themselves with the rich and stately
costume of the men of the sixteenth
century. Look at the cavaliers in
the glorious pictures of Vandyck;
who can believe that from the lips of
such and be-plumed gen
tlemen ever dropped any coarse ri
baldry or vulgar slang. Those grave
and potent seignors who glow on the
splendid canvas of Titian ; can you
believe them capable of the deeds in’
which delighted in the buckskin
breeches and cocked hats of our Mai
caronis and Mohawks is the days of
1 the second George? When 1 look
upon the sweet and noble women of
Vandyck, and compare them with
the bare'-bosomed beauties of Lely, I
trace in the distinction of costume
and fashion the difference of morals
and taste, and the wide gulf between
the pure household life of the reign
of Charles 1., and the social abandon
ment of that of Charles 11. Motals
and mariners keep pace with the
changes of costume, and are indica
ted by them. —London Society.
