THE SUMMER BIRDS.
BY AMELIA B. WELKY.
Sweet warblers of ilie sunny hours,
Forever on the wing—
-1 love them as I love the flowers,
The sunlight in the spring.
They come like pleasing memories,
Jn Summer’s joyous lime,
AmDing their gushing melodies
As I would sing a rhyme.
Jn the green and quiet places
N\ h< re the golden sunlight falls,
We sit with siiiillmg faecs,
To list the silver calls ;
And when their holy anthems
Come pealing thro* the air.
Our hearts leap forth to meet
With u blt s. ing aud a prayer.
Amid the morning’s fragrant dew.
Amid the misisofeveu’—
They warble on as ii they drew
Tneir music down from Heaven.
How sweetly sounds each mellow note,
Beneath the moon’s pale ray,
When dying zephyrs rise and float,
Like lovers’ sighs, away !
Like shadowy spirits seen at rve,
Among the tombs they glide,
Where sweet pale forms, lor which we grieve,
Lie sleeping side by Bide ;
They break with song, ihe solemn hush
Where peace reclines her head,
And link tlieir lays with mournful tho ights
Thai cluster round the dead.
For never can my soul forget
The loyed of other yeats;
Their memories fill njy spirit yet —
I’ve kept them green with tears;
And theii singing greets my heart at times
As m ill* days of yore,
Tho’ their musk and tlieir loveliness
Is o’er—forever o’er.
And often, when the mournful night
Gomes with a lo v sweet tune,
And sets a star on every height,
And one beside the moon.
When not a sound ol wind or wave
The holy stillness mars,
I look above nnd at live to-tra.ee
Their dwelling in the'etars.
The birds ! the birds of Summer hours—
Tliev firing a gush of glee,
To the child among tho flagrant flowers^—
To the sui or on the s a.
We hear their ihrilung voices
In their swift and airy fligl/l,
Aud die inmost heart rejoices
With a culm of pure delight.
In the stillness of the s'arlight hours,
When I am with the dead.
Oh! may they flutter ’nnd the flowers,
Tfia’ blossom o’er my-head.
And pour their songs of gladness forth
111 one melodious strain,
O’er lips whose broken melody
fchatl never sing again.
If there is any heart left among the English aris
tocracy, we should imagine that such effusions as ihe
following would .reach it.
THE SONG OF THE 3HJRT.
BY THOMAS HOOD.
With fingers weary and worn,
With eyelids heavy ami red,
A woman sat, in unwomanly rags,
Flying h r needle and thread,
Sti'cli! stitch! stitch !
In poverty, hunger, and dirt,
And Bii'l with a voice of dolorous pi ch
She sang the ‘Song of the Shirt i*
“Work! work ! work !
While the cock is crowing aloof!
And work—work—work,
Till the stars shine through the roof!
Jr’s O! to be slave
Along with the barbarous Turk,
Where woman has never a soul to save,
Jl this jj a Chris 11 an work !
‘ Work—work—work
Till the brain begins to swim j
Work—work —work
Till the eyes are heavy and dim!
Beam, and gusset and band,
Band, and gusset, and seam,
Till over the buttons 1 fill asleep,
And sew them on in a dream !
‘•O! Men, vvjtli Sisters dear ?
O ! Men with Mothers and Wives !
Ji is not linen you’re wpaiingout,
Jiul human creatures* lives!
Strch—stitch—stitch,
In poverty, hunger and dirt,
Sewing at once wi ll a double .thread,
A Shroud as well as a Shirt.
‘‘But why should I talk of Death?
That Phantom ofgna.y bone,
-I hardly fear this terrible shape,
It seems so like my owi.—
It seems so like my own,
Because of the lasts I keep,
O! God ! that bread should ue so dear,
And flesh and blood so cheap!
“Work—work—work!
My labor never flags ;
And what are ita wages? A bed of straw,
And a crust of bread—and rags.
That shatter’d roof; and this nuked flqpr;
A table, a broken chair.
And a wall so black, my shadow I thapk
For sometimes (ailing there!
‘‘Work—work—work!

Till the heart is sick, and the brain benam’d,
As well as the weary band.
“ W ork—r work—work,

And work-*-work—work,
When the weather is warm and light—
While underneath the ea’ es
The brooding swallows cling.
As if to show me their sunny hacks
And twit ine with the spring.

IT IS NO FICTION.
“Oh ! I con’d be hounded in a nutshell, nn< ? count
myself a king of infinite space, were not tfia’ I have
ba/l dreams ” — Hamlet.
“I am wrapped in dismai thinking.”— Suak-
SPEAKE.
i have been a dieamer all my life. The
earliest recollections of tny childhood are of
dreams of greatness. My boyhood’s visions
were peopled with warlike tumults. There
were no spring mornings to my brain, even
in early youth ; my heart was clouded with
shadow, and sadness reigned when mirth and
careless glee should have been pre-eminent.
My manhood has been a fitful, feverish, and
painful existence. J have outlived ali whom
I ever cared for; I have seen those whom 1
idolized lie before me co|d and senseless ;
and now, wilh every event vividly impressed
upon my memory, each tone of the v< ice of
her I loved dropping like liquid fire into my
brain, and drying up the tears that would
weep away my anguish—feeling all this
with intensity, and longisig for the free air
if heaven, 1 find myself alone—desoialc—and
hkre!!
Oh! the Inrrors of this prison-solitude—
the anxious watching lor the pale tnornimr
after sleepless nights—the horrible nights
when fantastic shapes arc alone visible,
mocking aland jeering me—when the only
sounds I hear are the ravings of some wretch
ed maniac, confined, like myself, because w e
have made for ourselves a world, and our im
aginations have created a presiding divinity;
and should a laugh disturb tiie sileuco, it is
the outbreak of a maddened spirit seeking
relief from thought—a laugh frightful, be
cause a mockery—sad in its boistero listless—
"the laugh which laughs not.’’
For many weary years 1 have been pent
up in this prison, pining for freedom, hoping
for things which never existed, conjuring tip
anticipations of a brighter future, calling up
on Iter who made
•‘The starlight of my boyhood,”
to look down upon me from her blest abode,
and woo me back to calmness by one gentle
word, otto loving glance ; and then sinking
into hopeless, biller despondency, when I
remembered that she was gone, and that 1
should see her no more.
Sometimes I can think of her in her exqui
site beauty, and tny soul drinks in, as it were
the sweet and liquid tones ol the voice which
once sp Jte peace to me, and, fancying her
again before me, 1 sink into an unquiet slum
ber, till some hideous dream oppresses me,
and I see Ihe fair brow of tny “J ulia” con
tracted, withered ; and, instead ot her silvery
voire of enchantment, a hissing sound es
capes Ihe lips I have worshipped. 1 rise,
and try to approach, but she recedes,! awake
—I starffrotn my uneasy bed—l find this
horrible picture, which bore the impress ol
reality, is but a dream. 1 awake to the con
scioust.ess that my beloved is dead, and that
my eyes will gaze upon her beauty no more.
How few there are in this busy world
who, when passing those abodes ol wretch
edness—“private madhouses”—can imagine
the agony, the misery, the despair that dwells
there ! But to my history.
I w as the only child ol General Sir Frede
rick and Ladv Charlotte 1J . J was
reared in luxury ; the rude air was scarcely
allowed lo blow upon tny delicate frame. I
can remember now, though years have pass
ed, and sorrow has bowed me--—1 can rt
menibtr the happy days when my w earied
head was pillowed on the bosom of my moth
er, and, alter she had sung me to sleep wilh
some wild melody, she would place me in
tny small luxurious cot, and watch over me
wnh those deep-loving cyca, and be the first
to comfort and re.assure me if uneasy dreams
—for even then 1 was a dreamer—made me
awake to sorrow. But my mother died.
Even now 1 shudder at the recollection ofi.be
desolateness of my agony when 1 knew I had
looked on her for the last time. Even now
i can feel the coldness which crept over me
as I laid my cboek to hers. My blood was
frozen. I could not weep. Oh ! tears
would have been a relief, but they were de
nied me ; and though I 6aw her taken lroin
my embrace, and tier beloved lorm laid in
ibe vault, I could still gaze with speechless
agony—but I wept not.
How I wished lor the quiet, of the grave ;:
lor even then there was a whirlw ind within ,
my bosom, and uiy sensitive heart shrank I
lroin holding cooyerse wilh, or bestowing j
confidence on another as ireely or unreserved- j
ly as I bad (lone with the dorr being whom
1 had lost.
Shortly after the event my father was.or
dered upon foreign service, aud my childhood
was passed among relatives who were stran
gers to me. It was a childhood without love.
1 remember my mother, and none could sup
ply her place. 1 could not trust in another
as 1 had trusted in her. In my sorrows, real
or imaginary, none other could comfort me.
1 longed for my childhood’s resting-place.,
where 1 might again pillow my aching head,
and sleep oi.ee more the calm sleep hajluwed
by a mother’s matchless love.
At an early age 1 was sent to one of our
great public scho ils, and there, although 1
endured some hardships, yet 1 experienced
also something like the pleasures and pas
times of boyhood..
From having been a weakly, delicatechiid
I grew strong and active ; but a gloom was
ever upon me.
Jn my moments of relaxation 1 would join
some ol iny companions in tlieir games of
play ; but even then a dark phantom pursued
me, and 1 would lattcy a sbaduwless spirit
was alter me ; il l ran, it always followed
me with its noiseless steps, and my cons'ant
fear was, that it would overtake me. Tins
was madness —aye, 1 can see it now— it was
madness coming oeer me.
1 frequently used to endeavor to dispel the
illusion by reading; but il l raised my eyes
lroin mv book, there was the figure looking
at me and sicking, and its lips would tnoye as
if to speak— but there was no sound.
I have sal for hours watching this bane of
my existence. 1 have sat till my eyes were
fixed from fright, and J have tried to move,
but I fell chained lo the spot, and tho fetters
that appeared to bind me seemed of cold
heavy steel, that fejl on my whole body and
paralyzed'me. Then I could feel my heart
growing dead, and yet throbbing wilh those
dull., audible throbs, till at last 1 have shriek
ed in the agony of my horror, and only then
would the dark being leave tncr—but if Ujl
me moody and mad.
I bad one friend at school, who would
soothe me by gentle .words, and tell me my
fears w.ere but fancy, and he would hold my
hands until I sleut, and lost, for a time at
least, the phantom which pursued me.
That friend is dead. J have outlived him.
Why should the madman live ?
When 1 was about sixteen, new life open
ed io me. There came as a vftitor to one ol
the ladies belonging uy he establishment, a
young fcnd lovely girl. I first saw her at the
i private chapel belonging to the school. The
I moment 1 looked at her, a gusli of hithena
unknown pleasure came to my heart. I fell
tliai I could love her.
I saw her again and again. I have stood
for hours hy tiie house in which she was,
hoping to catch a glimpse of her. Sometimes
I was successful—more frequently not—but,
it was something to hope for. Once I fan
cied that her eye fell upon me. Oh, how i
was repaid by that one pure glanre !
While she remained at , my life
was oup of bright and vivid tancy, and 1 was
cheered by the angel Hope ; but at length
her visit came to a termination ; yet, though
I know she had departed, I would go daily
to tiff accustomed watching place, and gaza
untirl fancied the beautiful girl was again
before tue.
At the usual period my school days ended,
and my college life began. 1 was enter
ed at Christ Church, Oxford. 1 read
bard, and obtained the highest honors—
My fame was brilliant, i was talked of, aud
marked by mv superiors as a rising man.
Shortly afterwards, I was relumed ss one
of the members ol a family borough in my
native county, and my first speech m Parlia
ment met with genera! applause—the battling
I had with my attendant phantom, which
still pursued me, blighted me. But I was
mad; and the excitement of madness tvas
called energy.
How often i have laughed them to sewn,
as 1 have sal alone wilh the dark spirit.
My sole ambition was that the girl whom
I had seen and admired might hear of my
career ; and that, with honors crowded upon
me, 1 might place mv laurel crown at her
leet, lay hare my heart’s best feelings, try
undying love for her, and prove to her how
entire was my devotion, how earnest my
worship.
I saw many young and lovely girls ; and I
was told that mothers looked upon me as a
desirable match—but I was true to my first
love. 1 remembered tier in ihe perfection of
maiden beauty—l wished- for none other;
and to see her again was my sole hope in
life.
After a season of unceasing gaiety and
dissipation—sick of London and its vanities—
-1 determined to travel, and for seven years }
was absent from iny native land.
1 was recalled to attend the death-bed of my
father. I had seen but little ofliim; he had
no sympathy with me, and in heart vve were
strangers to each other, lie was proud of
my talents, and I was an only son ; but he
never bestowed any real affection on me. J
honored him because he was my parent; but
1 never loved him as I ought to have loved 3
father.
He died, and I succeeded to the baronetcy
estates ; but 1 was alreacy tired of life—
wretched in the midst of my splendor. In a
w ord —l was mad.
At tho table of a friend I met a man a few
years my senior, whom t had known at
school. We renewed our acquaintance;
and 1 accepted an invitation to dine at his
house, to meet some old school-fellows.
I consented to go, but not cheerfully, for
a moody state of mind was coming over me.
I can remember the struggle, the exertion” it
was to diess for this party. Twenty times I
was tempted toseud a message saying 1 was
too unwell to go, but ray better angel pre
vailed—and I went. To what an eventful
period was that evening but the prelude !
My Iriend met and welcomed me with a
cordiality which someu hat cheered me ; but
I had a weight on my spirits Iron) which I
could nut rouse mvsclf, and most reluctantly
1 accompanied Sir Charles Tracy, with fal
tering steps and an aching heart and brow,
into the inner drawing-room, to be introduc
ed to his wife, Lady Ttacy.
She was seated on a low ottoman, with
her back to the door, reading. She arose as
her husband presented me to her as his old
friend, Sir Frederick B . She turned
tovvards me, and for a moment I was over
powered. J beheld before *ne the creature
i had so long pined for—so earnestly search
ed for—whose memory I had devotedly and
entirely worshipped.
With exquisite grace she extended her hand
10 welcome her husband's guest, and as I
held those small taper fingers in mine, thick
coining fancies crowded upon ine. 1 was
again the schoolboy—the anxious,, ardent
schoolboy, longing even for a lock from this
lovely woman whose hand I now held in
mine.
Hot tears rushed into my eyes, and I benj
over the fair hand to conceal them.
T his momentary cloud passed away, and
while seated by her I forgot that we had ever
been parted, and imagination peopled a world
of love—a paradise ot hope.
“But s',c in these Lind feelings had no share.”
The years which had passed, had changed
her from a lovely girl into the more matured
loveliness oi the niaijott.
When 1 nad seen her, her hair, which was
a rich and shining black, hung in natural and
! graceful curls over her beautiful and classi-
| rally formed head. Now the thick and lux
; uriant mass was was gathered-into a knot be
■ bind, and laid in soil bands over her pure and
polished brow.
Her eyes were of that deep fall blue which
j so rare, and were large and bright, and full
-of fire and spirit, which at times gave an ap
pearance ot haughtiness lo her noble counte
nance ; her throat, neck and arms, were
white as ivory, and formed in the most per
lect mould ; her height w as commanding, and
her figure exquisitely proportioned.
Before she spoke 1 could only look at her
wilh wonder, that anything soglorious could
be earthly; but the instant sheaddressed me,
a peculiar witchery played over her features
aud about her mouth; aud my wonder was
instantly changed into love nnd adoration,
and 1 drank in with eagerness the silvery
sweetness of her voice.
1 fancied on this night that Lady Tracey
bestowed more attention on me than on her
other gues‘e;lnr women have an intuitive
tact in discovering when a man admires de
vo’edly.
For that night I lost my dark phantom, J
slept a sweet sleep, dreaming of things which
could never be accomplished ; and rny wak
ing vision, as wild and improbable, was that
slie might one day return my love.
I would not lose sight of my newly found
treasure. 1 called at hefcr residence. 1 was
admitted. Again 1 gazed -and worshipped,
La ly Tracey looked more lovely bv day
light than with the full blaze of candle-light
upon her beauty. There was a delicacy
about her complexion no daylight conld im
pair; but it spoke also of a delicacy of c on.-
slitu'ion which made me tremble as I gazed,
The fascination ol her manner and ele
gance of her movements, her light and airy
tread, he; musical voice, her bright but sub
dued laugh; all these combined made tne idol
ize her.
There is but one sun in heaven ; there wa
but one Julia to my eyes on earth. Her shad
ow had fallen on my heart, as the sun on an
island far away from land in the lonely sea.
It was filled with light and verdure, and all
my best feelings were warmed to ripeness
by her glowing smile. ‘
We conversed together on poetry, music,
history, the arts; and I discovered she pos.
sessed a refined and superior iutefiect. A
sparkling tincture of satire mingled with her
mention of men and things; but while she
did this with perfect temper and gentleness,
it gave a brilliancy lo her conversation no: to
be described. She expressed a wish fer a
book which I had the happiness to possess;
here was an opportunity for another visit.—s
Again and again we met, and I was intoxi
cated with love ; but I saw no reciprocal feel
mg on her part. She was the same gentl*
aad.charming being ; but she bestowed ‘jns
