Those lips are mute while on my brow Thy btinming tears fall fast; Deatfi hath no pangs%hile thus thy arms Around my form are cast. Ah, come! for in my eyes the light Fades with the fading day; Upon my lips the last faint sigh That bears mv soul away. What though life’s feble pulse dies out, And death and darkness come— No shadows dim the etherial gates Of our eternal home. Nay, weep not sighs are all in vain; Could words—could angel’s tears— Revive this sinking form again To bliss and future years, I would not have my footsteps stray The way which they have gon», To mingle with the wild and proud, Yet know myself alone. Nor hnve my spirit seek the tide Of pleasure’s glittering stream, Yet find my feelings run to waste Amid each flattering beam That flings a moment’s brightness o’er The weary path we tri ad Then leaves us darker than before, With all those visions fled! Stars of the deep bine firmament And everlasting night, All things tlmtsing a last lament Unto the dying light. Fling all your glories round my head Ere we forever part; Shine forth and farewell radiance shed Around my sinking heart Indian Summer. There is a time just when the frost Prepares to pave old winter’s way, When Autumn in a reverie lost, The mellow daytime dreams away; When Summer comes, in musing mind. To gaze once more on hill and dell, To mark how many sheaves they bind, And see if all are ripened well. With balmy breath she whispers low; The dying flowers look up and give Their sweetest incense ere they go. For her who made their beauties live, She enters 'neath the woodland shade. Her zephyrs lift the lingering leaf, And bear it gently where are laid The loved and lost ones of its grief. At least, old Autumn, rising, takes Again his sceptre and his throne, With boisterous hand the tree he shakes. Intent on gathering all its own. Sweet Summer sighing, flies the plain, And waiting Winter, guant ana grim, Sees miser Autumn hoard his grain And smiles to think it's nil for him. Difference In Wives. Two weeks since we were riding in the cars when a gentleman came and spoke to a lady di rectly in front of us, who was seated besides a sickly man, whom we thought was her husband. The conversation turned upon the health of her companion, who was evidently a consumptive. “Last winter,” said she, “I wont to Kansas with him. The Winter before we spent in Flor ida; and now we are thinking of removing to Wis consin or Minnesota, foi the benefit of his health. The gentleman expressed some thoughts rela tive to her hardships in thus going away from her home and friends, and traveling so much abroad. “O!” she replied, “I do not mind that at all if he can only regain his health. I like New Eng land better than any other part of the country, for it is home; hut I am willing to live anywhere for his sake. Her husband made no remark as he heard these words, but volumes were in his eyes. The inci dent, however, did not particularly impress us until we stopped at a station about half an hour afterward. Then a friend entered the car and took a scat by our side. He was troubled with a bronchia! and lung difficulty of some years’ stand ing. In course of conversation we recommended a residence in a certain Western Plate, to which he replied, in substance: “I should have been there months ago if my wife had been willing to go. But all her friends are here in Massachusetts, and no consideration could induce her to leave for a residence so far away.” We looked at once at the stranger woman, whose conversation we have cited. “Noble wife.” w e said. “One of a thousand, doubtless, in this spirit of self-denial for her husband’s sake.”— There is certainly a great difference between these two wives. A traveled Loudon lady gives the following in cident, among others to a circle of admiring friends on her return from America. “I was a dinin’ haboard a first-class steamboat on the Hoeigho river. The gentlemean next me on my right was a Southerner, and the gentleman on my left was a Northerner. Well they gets into a kind of discussion on the habolition question, when some ’igh words hariz: “Please to retract sir,” said the Southerner. “Won't do it,’ said the Northerner. “Pray, ma’am', said the Southerner, said ‘will you have the goodness to lean back in your chair.- “ With the greatest of pleasure said I, not know’ in’ what was comin. When what does my gin- tlemen do but whips outa’oss pistil as long as my harm, and shoots my left ’and neighbor dead. But that wasn’t all for the bullet cornin’ out of tha left temple wounded a lady in the side. She but tered on ’orrifick scream. “Pon my word, ma’am,’ said the Southerner, 'you needn’t make so much noise about it, for I did it by mistake.’, “And was justice done the murderer!” aaked a horified listener. ‘ Hinstantly, dear madam,” answered Miss L . “The cabin pasengers set right to work and lym bed him. They 'urig ’iin in the lamp chains, hover the dinin’table, and then finished thedes- sert, But, for my part, it quite spoiled my Lap- petite.’ The Sugar crop of Cuba.—The Havana Pren- sa, of the'18th, has an article from which we get some information concerning the growing cane crop of Cuba- Rains in September and October, and north winds in November, are, says the Pren- sa, indispensable to the growth of the cane. In some places there has been a scarcity of water, hut in others there has been amply sufficient. In the Vuelta-Arriba there have been copius rains, and the planters will make as large, if not larger crops thao last year, if the season continue favor able. There is a prospect of an |early com mencement of griuding—and this is now partic ularly necessary on account of the scarcity of hands, which can only be compensated by an ex tension of the harvest season On the whole, however the crop of Cuba will not equal in amount that of last year. The Prensa assumes that in Louisiana there has been a lyss of 1(10,90(1 hogsheads by the innunda- tion.and that there will be no increase in the other sugar producing countries; and that conse. quently, prices will Dot fall, but on the contrary will rise. The estimated loss in Louisiana is, however, we believe, far above the truth, and is therefore a very fallacious element in the Prensa’3 calculations. Who would not be a Farmer.—The Louisville Cou rier pays the following tribute to the occupation of a farmer: •If a young man wants to engage in business that will insure him, in middle iife, the greatest amount of leisure time, there is nothing more sure than farming. If he has an independent turn of mind, let him be a fanner. If he wants to engage in a healthy occupation, let him till the soil. In short if lie would bo independent, let him get a spot of earth; keep within his means, to shun tha lawyers; be temperate, to avoid the doctor; be honest ttiat he may have a clear conscience, im prove tho soil, so as to leave the world better than lie found it: and then if he cannot live happily, and die content, there is no hope for him.” A Dis ranchised City.—If the Baltamore Sun makes a true statement, that city is in a sad con dition as regards the exercise of the elective fran- chiseby its citizens Speaking of the renomination of Mayor Swan, which it considers equivalent to a re-election, not because of the Mayor’s impartial administration of the duties of his office, butofhia aeceptableness to his own party, our contempo rary says: It is a stubborn fact, not to be gainsayed by any one familiar with the history of late “elections” in Baltimore, that the polls are utterly closed to thousands of our citizens, while the ballot-box can be and lias been used to any extent that the occa sion mav require for the nominal record of illegal votes. On the other hand, the scenes at the polls have been such as to assure any reasonable man that persistance in an attempt to vote, by a largfi class of our population would have involved an incalculable amount of bloodshed and kw of life,— To such an extent has this lawless fovea been de veloped, that challengers and ticket holders op posed to the dominant party have been utterly ex clude from the polls aud their vicinity And it ia notorious that all sorts of arms and weapons, which there has boen scarcely a decent attempt to conceal, have been ia the hands of the most des perate men, and prompt for use all about the polls upon election days. These are the facts which throughly degrade the administration of law ia our city, ignore the first principles of American institutions, sap tlie foundations of public virtue, and expose the theory of political equality to tha odium of public contempt.
