First I heard some 6mall pipes playing. Like faint night winds on the breeze, Grlhe sound ol distant rain drops As they tall among the trees. Floating softly o’er the waters, And from every bell of foam, The fairy aiithim echoed softly, fcad as thoughts of distant home. Next the sound as if of footsleps O’er the grass p!a4 mov’d along. And distinctly came the accents . Of the solemn funeral song. Like the irelling of the dew drops. Without words of grief or death. Was the soul enthralling music, Scarcely louder than a breath. Thru my dreaming eyes were opened, And in wonder I espied, Thousands of the faily creatures In a circle, side by side. .Scarcely talkr than the leaflets Of the heibage on the plain. While their heads were bow’d with anguish. And their tear drops fell like rain. In the middle of the cPcle, On a plat of grass most' green, Stood a bier of unknown flowers. Whereon lay the fairy queen. Ah, she was pale as any lilly. Cold and motionless as snow ! Fainter grew their solemn diiges. And still deeper giew their wo ! Two sisters (if the queenly fairy. Stood at "her feet and head, And sang in most heart broken measu.es. Their requiems o’er the dead. Scarcely louder than the twittering Of the wood lark’s dewy breath. But too full of desolation. And the dark despair of death 1 Then the flower-bier rank gently, At tlie spot whereon it lay, And tlie magic turf clos’d o’er it— Tims the dead queen pass’d away ! that our Boards at Richmond and Ma-j first approached on the subject the nfcgro- rion are still vigorously prosecuting ! was ' ery much alarmed, and protested * tl.nl 1 < > nr rvi i! ,1 liavn n^f l.im* ♦ <-> .1« ) must be thoroughly united and liar- [ people.
