’TlS 1IOME WHERE’ER THE HEART Id
rnosi the winter’s wreath.
'Tis Home where'er the heart is j
. Where’ei*it» loved ones dwell,
In cities or in eoltages,
Thronged haunts or mossy dellf
The heart's a rover ever,
■ • Aud thus on wave and wild,
The maiden with her lover walks,
The mother with her child.
'Tis bright where’er the heart 1st
/ Its fairy spells can bring
Fresh' fountuius to the wilderness,
And lo the desert—spring.
There are green isles in each ocean,
O’er which nllection glides;
And a haven mi each shore, ,, ’
When Love’s the alar that guides,
’Tis free where’er the heart is;,
Nor chains, nor dungeon dim,
May check the mind’s aspiriugs,
. The spirits pealing hymn!
The heart gives life its beauty,
Its glory and its power,—,
‘Tis sunlight to its rippling stream’,
And suit dew to its flower. 1

LOVE.
(Tis sweet to eye
The cloudless sky.
When the stars are brightly beaming—
And sweat to gaze
On the rosy .rays
Of the sun in the morn first gleaming.
And sweet’s the hour
When music's power,
SoR o'er the senses stealing,
, Holds benv’nly reign,
And its silken chain
Throws o’er eucb raptur’d feeling.
But yet more sweet,
The responsive beat, *
Of love’s twin hearts against each other;
When nought repels
Thyir.wisltul'swellS,
Or bids the sparkling flume to smother.

MOTION OF ANIMALS.
.Animal moduli is wonderful, though from'its
perpetually meeting tlm oye, we take iiuie ac
count of it. Thu IMmlus (a shell lisli) Ii.is (he
power pf perforating tlm hardest marble by
means of a fleshy substance, apparently no way
s uited to so laborious*, an employment. It iu-
ci eases its cell as it increases in size ; and con
stitutes a perfect example of the first rudiments
of uuimal motion. The (inly impulse uu oys
ter possesses, orises out of its power of opening
and shutting its shell. The muscle moves liy
menus of a' muscular substance, resembling n
*tgii'gue< Thu crab moves sideways,'and the
Vtiier-fly swims upon .its buck. _ Tfio serpent
miilutaiek, apd the lioir-aut moves backwards:
it has' no power to make the smallest inclination
forwards* Marine birds can wajli, run, fly, alid
swim. Sortio unimals cub only walk, others
oply gallop; the horse performs all these mo
tions, The tiger und the crocodile dart; tho
reiu-deer runs, but never gallops; tho armadil
lo walks swiftly, but can neither run'her leap ;
while the grout unt-eater climbs much better
than it cup walk. Tke sloth is a largo animal,
and yet can tiavol only fifty paces a day; uu
elk Will run a mile ami a half insevep minutes;
an antelope a mile in a minute ; the wild mule
of Tartary has a speed even greater than that.
An eaglo cun fly 18 leagues in an hour: and u
canary falcon can even reach > 250 leagues in
tho short space of 16 hours, Mitn has tlm pow
