take great pleasure in pla
cin before our readers another of
Paia’s beautiful “icood notes wild” We
rib we could stimulate others of our es-
and talented female friends to ex
change occasionally the bawbles of Fash
ion for the bright wreaths of Poetry :
Jafccd life's glimmering lamp with true poetic fire,
jp,d with their taper fingers, touch the lyre.
True Poetry consecrates every thing it
feels or hears. It brightens in the
rainbow, it glistens in the stars, and at
tends the Moon when she walks “an Em
through the skies. It makes more
vivid the lightnings flash and adds another
uote to the deep bass of the thunder’s roar.
Flowers, birds, insects, mountains, lakes,
rivers anti cataracts are filled with its beau
tv—and old ocean when he lifts himself
in terrible majesty echoes its music around
the world, in one grand diapason.
We pity the soul dead to the poetic in
fluences around and about it every day
and onr wonder that such inspirations are
not more often expressed, is only lessened
from the reflection that many “a mute in
glorious Milton” lias died unknown, for
want of an opportunity to. give his winged
thoughts a permanent “form and jercs

THE REALM OF SOUQ.
BY LEOLA.
“’Tis Poesy's hand that paints in the shadowy
isle of Song, and caste o’er the cold realities of
life a golden veil of beauty.”
AVh at sWeet spirit thus enchants me,
With its soft and tender lay,
What bright visions now entrance me,
As o’er woodland hills I stray?
Forms of beauty round me gliding,
Softest rays of lucid light,
Streams iu sylvan shadows hiding,
Opening buds, and flowers bright.
Purple clouds of gilded lining,
Crimson waves on azure seas,
Rainbow hues of brilliance shining
O’er the emerald crested trees.
Fields Elysian, crystal fountains,
Golden tassels, leafy sprays,
Fruits immortal, vales and mountains,
beauty’s richest scene displays.
Minstrel hands o’er lyres sweeping,
Strains of rapture deep and wild,
Soft enchantment gently creeping,
O’er the heart of Nature’s chill.
Music’s spell, aseendine Heaven,
Gently wakens all the skies,
And the bright and “peerless Seven,”
In a glittering circlet rise!
Then the Moon an Empress seeming,
’Mid the lesser stars of night,
Sways her wand with diamonds gleaming,
Tinging all with radiant light.
Gems spring up from dark recesses,
Pearls arc showered from above,
And the God of Heaven blesses,
Earth with Poetry and Love !
Poesy! Bright spirit dwelling,
Over all that’s pure and fair,
Os unfading chaplets telling,
Painting lightly every care.
Singer here, and still enchant me,
With thy soft and plaintive lays,
As the spectral visions haunt me,
Visions sweet of other days.
Ilappy seraphs roam above me,
In this flowery realm of dreams,
See I now, dear forms that love me,
Hov’ring o’er these starlit streams.
Here I’d linger—oh! forever,
With this heaven-inspired throng,
Guardian angel, take me, never,
From the beauteous realm of Song!

“Going it Blind.”
The Rome Courier , copying from the
Montgomery Mail the anecdote of the Al
abama Democrat, who, after assisting in
passing the strong resolutions of the late
♦State Convention of his party, which in
strucled its delegates to Charleston to come
home in the event that its platform and
candidate were, not accepted, exclaimed,
“We will all come home, sure; but the
last and done of ns will support the nom
inee,” relates the following similar “case iu
point”:
This reminds us of a dream related to
us by a citizen of Floyd county, who is
well known throughout the Btate for his
ability and eloquence.
It was while the Cincinnati Convention
was in session, and all were eager to hear
who were its nominees, Jle dreamed he
was on his way to Summetville, Chattoo
ga county, and met Dr. John W. Lewis,
present Hupt. of the W. & A. R. Pt., re
turning from Cincinnati, who informed him
that the Convention had nominated Iho
fuu, of Miss., for President, and McFayin,
of Illinois, for Vice President. When he
reached Summerville, he found a large
crowd collected—it being sale day perhaps.
Upon discovering that they had not heard
the news, he thought it a tine opportunity
to make capital for Fillmore. So mount
ing a box, lie announced the result of the
Cin innati C invention. “Who,” exclaim
ed he, “in this crowd lias ever before heard
of Doolan and MeFagin ? Ami who has
not heard of Millard Fillmore ?”
He then paid a lengthy and eloquent
tribute to his character and administration.
c We know him,” said he—“we have tried
him—he is true arid faithful. Is there a
man within hearing of my voice who will not
vote for him? Is there one who will vote for
Doolan and MeFagin ? I pausetor a reply.”
Simultaneously the whole crowd threw
up their hats and shouted, “Hurrah! for
Doolan and MeFagin ! !”
The Enjoyment of Exercise. •
It is commonly understood that exercise
is what is wanted to restore to health him
who is suffering from what is termed “gen
eral debility.” Now, it is not so much ex
ercise that is wanted as the exhilarating
effect which the enjoyment of exercise pro
duces. Take a familiar illustration : An
invalid is able to walk a half a mile a day.
He goes out on a beautiful June morning
when all nature is smiling around him,
and comes back enlivened by his commu
nion with her. Suppose, instead of this,
he lias gone out into his back shed, where
he had a tread-mill put up for him, under
the delusive notion that it is merely walk
ing which he wanted. He takes his half
mile on this, and to make the case stron
ger, with blindfolded eyes. Ho comes back
to bis room without a tithe of the advan
tage to be derived from the out-door ram- !
ble. Indeed, if he be a man of ordinary
sensibility, he is worse off than without
his accustomed exercise, tor his mind is all 1
disfigured with his tread mill performance. |
It is, then, the enjoymeni of exercise in j
which consists th 6 chiefest excellence. It;
is the diversion of the mind from the ails I
of the body. The man is by this drawn
away from himself. Now, what can bet
ter accomplish tflis object than amuse
ment ? Any one who has ever witnessed
the effect of a good story on a convalescent
need hardly be told of its benefit. AVho
has not had the headach relieved by the
genial talk of a friend ? We have known
it cured by a two hours’ lively chit-chat
with a good-humored and witty compan- ;
ion. We have even known a moderate fit l
of indigestion carried off by an immoderate j
fit of laughter, and a case of constipation
to yield to a treatment of side-splitting,
button tearing cachination.
We believe, then, most fully, in using
all propper means of amusement as a
means of health, and commend all such of
our readers, from the playthings of the
nursery to “Punch” and “Vanity Fair.”
With the poet we emphatically say —
“Care, to our coffin adds a nail, no doubt —
Ant! every grin so merry draws one out- ‘ I
