From V inson’s Cask - 1. The Un am of Love. How like a dream our life appears, A varying scent of joys and tuars— Os bliss and woe, from which we wake, Our last fonu ,< strop. <♦ 'o ta e; Oh, Ixive iiow like a dream an thou, < M* blasted hop- an ' broken vow. It has never been determined by metaphysi cians and philos .phers, which ol all ih -- human passions is the strongest. So tie hive declan d in fivmir of revenge, others in favour ot anger and grief; but I am inclined to believe the pas sion ot love tar the most powerful, inasmuch as it not onlv operates itself in manv destructive ways, hut nes origin to jcalpusv, a most mys terious and <1 adly passion. L - .ve levels all the distictions ct so. i. ty surmounts all the bar riers of parental tyrranny, and int> rested opposi tion; and if unsuccessful, terminates in jealousy, revenge, or t c most oitter and unrelenting h ttred. Some years since, there resided near one ol’ our large cities a gentleman, bv the name ot Morland, who, bv industrious habits in a me chanical business, had acquired a competence, and had remove.' to a pleasar t scat m the envi rons ot the town 111 had one son and a daugh ter. Ihe son had been e.lu ated at A .-st Point, and alt. rwards entered th. navy, where he, at the time I speak ot, had risen to the honourable rank ot a lieu’enanV The aught*o. Madeline, in her seventeenth summer, was considered , beautiful,possessing a mild i.nd amiable disposi j tion, connected with winning, or even bewitch ing manners: though exce."ive praise tnd ado ration had made her van and coquettish, which feelings mirror had no tendency to suppress. Her form was slender; her features’ cf tb? Gre- cian, or rather of the Circassian mould; lips, red as the lotus, and eyes dark, large, and liquid. Yet, the greatest charm Madeline pospessed, and they were not few, was the heavenly ex ■ pression, which was the very moonlight of her I soul, and beamed upon her face. Iler heart was pure, gentle, and refined. She was one of those who, in the language of Moore, “ Would blush when you praised her, And weep when you blamed.” It cannot then be strange that she should capti vate many. Among those whob wed down be fore her charms, was a young man, of high pre tensions, who used every means in his power to obtain the key of her heart. His name was Brown; he was of an enthusiastic nature, and was often heard to say, th<rt he lov. d her to dis traction, and would vi - . hl up his life, if she were seriously to demand it, to prove the since ity of his passion. But Madeline appeared cold and insensible to all the warmth of his protestations, though her father was pleased with the pr aspect of the alliance Biown endured his ill ccess with calmness, until he discovered t at a rival suitor was winding him-< L into the affections of his own heart’s idol. He then be. a. - e distressed and impatient. Wakeiiel i, th. rival, had been an apprentice, a few y < ars before, to Morlai d, 1 and was far inferior m point <>f fortune, talents, 1 and high resp. ctahilttv, to Bi un. This, both km w; and the knowledge mutually - made them the gn at r enemies. Such are the mysteries o love, that no ower can bind, and n laws regu ! lat< it. Madeline had long esteemed the accom plished Brow , and had seriously stiiven to love him; but m vain. Hence, Br wn had been al ternat Iv encouraged and discouraged. She had loved Wakefield without a single effort. So perfectly fascinated was Brown, that be; could not rest when absent from h< r: ami i sin- ' gle smile from her fair lips, was sufficient to ; chase away all his cares, and call ba< k t the dark chamber cl his heart, the brilliant hop former days. One morning in June, ii st a V. ak< field left the h. - u e, lie sought be ;>i s en< e, to soli. it, lor th’ - last linn - perhaps, . hand am! heart. He sou <1 her reclining n sofa, i a splendid dress, <r .ding the Soin sos V\ • rtcr. This he thought was a happy op; in - tunity, and pressed her with oq int lang age to tell him, for the last time, hat he was to de pend upon. “My fate,” said he, “is in vour hands. \ are the inism ss of mv d< stmy, ami on y ur u ■- depen - mv future h ppin ss,or niv < t rua' r i n It lam permitted to liv< inyo'ir r< - s‘ tier - , I.' <.i be th. happiest of’ m n; but l ymi d< termiie otherwis , 1 am a doomed wretch, a l lite nil. no l<m er be desirable. t)< ar< -t M idelii have lov d you Inw ve von, va nto iistra . tion, an it i t mains ■> dy tor y uto pr. uoun whet r I shall Ivo in . ope, or me m despim 1 awaii your del immatio'i.” I As the last rd- escaped tro n his lii)« i ! sunk u on one k ee efiue her; and gi i her a d with a kind i i tr.icted air, z int anxi - ty int • her v ulv» y <•» . am- line was start! with the qui knes- oi uis rnov menl, ut th. si - , t nty ol his'manner, a’ i earuesmess of his gaze, r< < all< <i her seat senses, an* a- use<i he. s nsitive t thugs ‘ i hav. t v r esteem, d y uas a g nti .a , said Madeline, id.ismng l<> tiei t tuple s, “but, to be indio withy u, dial e.-te in has n< v rbe n merged m that mor. - devoted let which i • < ver necessary to nnd r tiie union ot ur i mts happy.

( In a few minutes he appear at th- - do r, an 1 from behind a tree in front of * ,e building, . c I saw the el gam form oi Madeline advance, her hand clasped in that of the happy Makefield- He saw her lean upon his arm, and gaze up in his face; he saw his m m enfold the d licatc waist of the '’harming girl; he saw him again affec tionately press her lips, and madness fired his soul. The next, moment the warm adieu was uttered, softly—the hand pressed and relinquish ed, and M akcfield left the house. He had ad. vanced but a few steps, musing upon the luxury and the sweet delirium of Jove, when the form ot Brown emerged from the shade of the shrubbe. ry, and he started. They gazed for a moment, with surprise and bitterness upon each other. “Well met, sir, in such an hour and place as this,” muttered Brown, with bitter sternness, “To peep av'd listen, at such an hour and place as this, but ill befits a gentleman,” retort, ed AA a kefieh , the fact flashing upon his mind, that Brown had been a witness to all that had passed. | “It matters not,” returned the other; “we will j not quarrel over trifles. I demand, sir, wheth ei you are serious in your attentions to the lady you have just left? Answer me without equivo. cation. “I recognize not your right, sir, to demand any thing of me,” returned Wakefield, coolly. “ hen you or I must die,” said Brown, sud. denly drawing a pan ot pistols from his pockets. “I hav made up my mind, sir, irrevocably, that if Mad. line Morland will not be mine, she shall not be another’s.
