THE ELM TREES.
Oh! may these trees be ever green,
Perpetual spring enwreath them,
May bloom on every bough be seen,
And lovely flowers beneath them !
Be fresh each leaf, be strong each form,
No biting winds impair them ;
And may the red wing of the storm
Pass ever by, and spare them!
Twas here, in boyhood, that I stray’d,
When not a care molested;
With her I lov’d, beneath this shade,
On summer days I rested.
1 feel those years revive again,
So aweet and far departed—
Ah! thoughts like these are worse than vain,
They mock the broken-hearted!
It is a melancholy scene
To view the woodlands yellovl,
And winter’s snow, where late serene
Wav’d Autumn’s harvest mellow;
But ’tis a more desponding truth,
To feel that we must sever
From all that gave delight to youth,
Despairing, and forever!
As in a mirror, vanished years
This well known view is raising.
With lightning glow the pas appears,
As thoughtful I am gazing!
May no rude hand this spot deform,
No biting winds impair it;
And may the red wing of the storm
Pass ever by, and spare it.
WHIMSICAL ANECDOTE.
The following anecdote is related of a
Calloway clergyman, who was much cele
brated among hia coteinpo anes lor his wit
and his humor, and who is even supposed
by some to have been the r al author id
‘•Maty’s Dream,” a ballad, which, brief at.d
unpretending as it is, probauly opens mote
beautifully than any poem in the English
language, and which, in the absence of al
most every other proof of literary excel
lence, has long been celebrated to the name
of Lowe. From this individual’s manse
to the margin of the Dee, was only a step,
and “many a time and olt,” when tired
with study or fatigued by business, tie found
it delightfully refreshing to spot t amidst its
waters, exclaiming with the poet,
Life owns in every pause the refreshing power
And one short shudder warms through many
an hour.
On one of these occasions, the bather had
no sooner regained tiie gteen sward, than
he observed 10 his astonishment, that his
clothes were completely covered with a
swarm of bees, which, assisted by the warm
weather and without once dreaming id the
theories of Malthas, had emigrated from a
narrow territory.
Poets are said to be naturally fund of
bees ; no man, we believe, can ies his
admiration of these insects so far as to al
low them tobivouack on his coat snd small
elothes-tparticularly when he is himself in
want of/such accommodations. At least
30 telt 4c minister of . Unwilling i
to remain longer in tlie water, and yet a
fraid 0 proke the hostility ot the angry m
sects'ne made several timid efforts u* re
gai Jut property; but the winged phalanx
where on the alert, and he only
ftS ilpei* from a thorough stinging by plung
ji/repeatedly into the Dee. In ’this di
1/nma he betook himself a little longer to
■fe exercise of swimming, in the hope that
Time kind neighbor would pass by, and ei
her furnish him with anew suit of clothes
pr dislodge the enemy from the old one.
But in this hope he was disappointed— the
/ti-.ie was wearing au iy—the water was
getting rather chill—and he appeared to
have nothing for it but to run home with all
his might ; yet even this was a disagreea
ble alternative. Thedistance was not con
siderate, but still be might be seen—might
be met on the way, and what would his pa
rishioners think, if they were told that
their Minister was observed scampering
through the fields in a state of nudity ?
These wete puzzling reflections; but-ne
cessity has nol iw.and at last the eccentric
par9on fairly broke from his confinement
at all hazards.
Faking the irost circuitous route, lie
bounded over the “Ward with the agilitv of
a young savage., and iri despite ot thorns
and pricktrs, cleared bushes and hedges
like a first ra e hunter. At this rate he ai
riv and within a fen- paces of his own door,
Unno:icfd and uokiiotvr, : but here, two or
three individual*, employed i:i carrying’
clothes to the bleaching green, became ter
ribly alarmed at the unwonted apparition
of a nuked man. In an instant, down went
band ha;row, tub and watering pan, and
nimble as his reverence was, he was fairly
out; un by those he was <o anxious to avoid,
but whom he now appeared to be pursuing.
• IV."serve me! preserve me ! Saw ye ever

ted tiis ears ; but if it was bad to advance,
t ■ ’•etrrat would h ive been still woise; and
