The 19tli of July was a great day in “olJ Bris

having been then hauled out of dock, and Prince
Albert, with a host of lords, ladies, and distin
guished foreigners being present to witness the
ceremony. It is conjectured that fully one hun
dred thousand persons occupied the surrounding
heights, and the scene was altogether very stri

some dozen columns of the British journals.—

WOMAN.
Nothing on earth to ntan so dear,
As woman’s tender, falling tear—
Nothing in all this ivoild of wiles.
Can cheer his heart like woman's smiles.
Her voice, to him, is music's strains,
Sweeter than warbling lute complains;
Her sighs—bright incense of the heart—
Love’s warmest eloquence impart.
Her tears, her smiles, her voice, her sighs,
Are charming unc'ion from the skies
To man’s descriptive heart arc given,
That earth might be a little Heaven.
Who would not have a iovely w ife ?
To share the toils and joys .if life.
Whose sympathetic tear would flow.
In sorrow’s vail for husband's wo?
Whose angel smile with fearless ray.
Would chase desponding gloom away,
The adverse clouds of night remove,
And cheer man's soul with noon-day love ?
And then should fortune, wealth and fame,
Unite to bless and gild his name,
His better half his angel fair.
’Twere rapture, then, for her to share.

and Caroline Maslen, aged two months.
Shed not one tear (or thy sweet babe,

For joy aud health it could ne’er have found
In such a world as this.
No harm can reach it now, it dwells
Where all is good and fair—
And with the Saviour’s jewels shine,
Amid the brightest there.
It has faded like the early rose,
Or springs first violet pale—
For this cold world’s unfeeling blast,
It wastooyveak and frail.

That if must bud and bloom,
