FROM THK BOSTON LLCECM.
TO A LADY.
>\ hrn memory fondly lingers near
The silent grave where love reposes,
And sheds with burning eye, the tear
On the pale wreath of withered roses ;—
Pome seraph form, in brightness clad,
Comes to dispel the gloom of sorrow,
Bids the lone mourner’s heart be glad,
And whispers,—‘ she v. ill wake to-morrow.
Thus wires beside the cheerless grave,
Of fond hopes perish’d crush’d, and blighted,
The minstrel stood and madly gave
liis heart, where all his vows were plighted,
Then, lady, then, thy seraph smile
Beam'd o’er the heart by sorrow riven,
llo bless’d thee—for he deem’d the while
That form the harbinger of heaven!
lie bless’d thee—for that angel voice,
In accents soft as mercy’s pleading,
Bade sorrow’s mourning child rejoice,
And heal’d the heart with anguish bleeding,
lie lov'd thee ! but as pure ones love,
To whom celesthrl thoughts arc given.
Thine image he had shrin’d above,
lie knelt, and worship’d thee in heaven.
I.ady, if pravw’can ought avail,
Brea tli’dfrom the heart, whence hope is banish d,
The brightest of whose sands are run.
The fairest of whose visions vanished—
.’No broken vow—no tear ofsoirow
Shall diin the lustre of thine eyes—
But every hour, from love shall borrow
New bliss, to lend thee as it flies.

IMITATION OF SERVIAN POETRY.
The maiden turned her head away—
u You'll have no kiss from me to day."
“ And why to day, love, must I see
The roses bloom and not for me ?
Tears filled the maiden’s raven eyes—
“ The lightly won, you lightly prize ;
To make you prize the kiss you gam,
It must be won with toil pain ;
And seldom too ; so still I say,
You’ll have no kiss from me to day’
Froan Jonah Barrington’s Sketches.
“ Mr. Curran had a younger brother,
who was an attorney, very like him, but
taller and better looking. This man had
a good deal of his brother’s humor, a little
wit, and much satire; but his slang was
infinite, and his conduct very dissolute.—
He was, in fact, what may be termed the
best blackguard of his profession, (and
that was saying a great deal of him.) My
friend had justly excluded him from Ins
house, but occasionally relieved his finan
ces; until these calls became so importu
nate, that at length further compliance
was refused. ‘ Sir,’ said the attorney to
me, one dav, ‘if you speak to my brother,
I a in sure lie’ll give me something hand
some before the week is out !’ I assured
him he was mistaken, whereupon he burst
into a loud laugh ! There was a small
space of dead wall, at that time, directly
facing Curran’s house, in Ely place, a-
aainst which the attorney procured a writ
ten permission to build a little wooden
box. He accordingly got a carpenter
(one of his comrades) to erect a cobler’s
stall there, for him, and having assumed
the grave expounders of the law.

Barney. Now, Mrs. McLcllan, my
dear, as you’re on ycr bible oat, I’ll just
ax ye if it wasn’t I that used, to bring home
niv arnings every Saturday night, and give
them to ye jist as a good husband aft for
to do—and didn’t I ?
Mrs. McL. Mighty little wages you
used to give me. Some times I got six
shillin from ve ; but what’s that for me
and the childer? That’s not much, sure.
Barney. Well, but did I git more—
wasn’t that all ?
Mrs. McL. How should I know ? Ton

Barney. But didn’t I give ye all the
money I got? spake to that, now yer on

Barney. Now, yer honor, if she did’nt

I was jist eating me bit of meat, and abuse
me with her tongue, that’s a dreadful tiling,
;t is—and then my temper begins to get
up, ye see, and then she spakes back, yer
honor—and faith and troth, that’s jist the
wav of it, yer honor.
Recorder. But you should not beat
her.
Barney. Ocb, but I did’nt know what
I did, ye see, because of me being in such
a big passion, becase of tlie woman’s
tongue, vc see.
Recorder (to Mrs. McL.) What was
j tin- reason of his beating you ?
i Mrs- McL. Notliiug but drunkenness
blessed with affluence had spared no pains
to improve by a liberal education, the

rrmis Medicine lias acquired a very extend-
g_ ed and established celebrity both in Hos
pital and Private practice, which itseflScacy alone
has supported for these seven years past.
As a spring or full purifier it has given new
constitutions to thousands, it is by its operation
on the Blood that such surprising cures have been
performed in numerous diseases
The etfcct of this medicine is such as not to in
terrupt either business or pleasure, and require-
only the common restraint of moderation in diet.
It is conveyed by the circulating fluids, and cor
rects their tendencies to all those diseases which
originate in vitiated blood, diseased liver, or de
praved appetite. It is a safe medicine, and re
moves ail those evils which an unsuccessful use
of nu-rcurv so often occasions. No one, how
ever is advised to take it without fust fuUr con
voicing himself of the truth of what is here’stated
and the rectitude of the Proprietor’s intentions.
This Medicine has the singular fortune, a just
tribute to its great merit, of being recommended
by the most celebrated Practitioners of Medicine
in the LAiitcd States and elsewhere, whereas not
one of the spurious mixtures made in imitation j
of it, is supported by the Faculty. This fact of- |
fers an argument so plain and conclusive, that it
needs only to be mentioned to enforce convic
tion.

The Vegetable Syrup, called Swaim’s Pana-
| thchi* r liest practical importance to every school,
! everv'fainilv, and every individual in the com-
! unity, remains unprovided with one of those
popular and useful vehicles of information. A
minute detail of the advantages which may be
expected to result from a periodical work, such
as is now proposed, w e think unnecessary M ith
the suefipes of other publications of the same
class before us, we feel abundant encouragement
to proceed in our undertaking.
A leading object of the Journal will be to fur
nish a record of facts, cmbiacing whatever infor
mation the most diligent inquiry can procure,
regarding the past and present state of education,
iu“the United States, and in foreign countries. An
opportunity will thus be aflorded for a fair com
parison of the merits of various systems of in
struction. The results of actual experiment will
be presented; and the causes of failure, as well
as of success, may thus be satisfactorily traced,
and be made to suggest valuable improvements.
The conductors of the Journal will make it
their constant endeavor to aid in diflusing enlarg
ed and liberal lie tvs of education. Nothing, it
seems to us, has more influence in retarding the
progress of improvement in the science of instruc
tion, than narrow and impartial views of what
education should he expected to produce. Iutcl-
lectual attainments have been too exclusively the
object of attention. It is too common a t'.-ng to
cons dcr a man well educated, if he has made a
proper use of tlie facilities for the acquisition of
learning; though the result may have been ob
tained atthc expense of bis health, and with much
neglect of that moral culture, which is the surest
foundation of happiness. In many plans of edu
cation, which arc in other respects excellent, the
fact seems to have been overlooked that man pos
sesses an animal, and a moral, as w-ell as an in
tellectual constitution. Hence the fatal neglect
of the requisite provisions for the dcvelopemcnt
of the corporeal system, & the confirmation and
improvement of health, tlie only foundation of
mental as well as bodily power. The moral de
partment of education has too commonly been
restricted to an occasional word of parental ap
probation or reproof; or, at the best, to efforts
limited by the sphere of domestic life. The natu
ral consequence of the restrictions thus unjustly
laid on education, is, that we often find, in the
same individual a learned head, but a debilitated
body, and a neglected heart. Education should,
