P O E T R Y. *'MCCH YLT REMAWS VNSVSG.” THE FAMILY MEETING. We are all here, Father. Mother, Sister, Brother, AH who hold each oilier dear. Each chair is filled—we’re all o' home ! To-night let no cold stranger come : Jr is not often thus around Our old iatr.iliar hearth we’re found. Bless, then, the meeting and the ep*M ; For once he every care forgot; Let gentle peace av ert her power, And kind affection rule the hour. We’re all—all here- We’re rota!! here I Some are away -the dead ones dear. Who thronged with us this ancient hearth, And gave the hour to guileless mirth. Fate, with a stern, relentless hand, Looked in, and thinned our little hand ; Some like a night flash passed away, And some sank lingering day by day ; 'Flic quiet grave yard—some lie there— And cruel ocean has his share — We’re not all here. We arc all here, Even they- the dead —though dead, so dear; Fond memory, to her duty true, Brings back their laded form* to view. How” life-like, through the mist of years, Eacli well remembered face appears I We sec them, an in times long past; From each to each kind looks are cast, We hear their words, their smiles heboid— They’re round us as they were of old — We arc all here. We are all here, Father, Mother, Sister, Brother, You that I love, with love so dear. This may not long of ns lie said — Soon must we join the gathered dead. And bv the hearth we now sit round Some oilier circle will lie found. Oh ! then, that wisdom may we know Which yields a life of peace below ; So, in tiie world to follow this, Alay each re [’eat, in words ofbliss, IFe’re all- all here ! STANZAS. The ait is heavy with the breath ot flowers, And music floats around me like a dream ; I see the smile of beauty in her bowers, And clustering Inmps like stars above me gleam : I hear the voice of inert intent sweep by, But wake no echoing gladness in my breast; 1 know that light and ha]>py hearts are nigh, But feel mine own with heaviness oppress'd. There is a thought all gladness overpowers, And renders beauty dim unto my sight— O! where are they, whose smiles in former hours Have filled my soul with happiness and light ? Go, ask the deep!—the wande.iers o’er it range— Go,ask the earth!—for it hath elaiufd the dead— Go, ask the winds’.—like traitor-friends they change —■ The true were taken !—and the false are fled ! ] ’l’isever thus!—the flowers wc pluck must die! And those we love must |>eri*li,or forget!— To think of other hours is hut to sigh— And memory hut a title of regret! Tis ever thus!—or earth would he too bright. Anil hearts would love to linger in its bowers— But who would mourn eve’s coming, when the light Os day hath gleam’d alone on blighted flowers? THE IRISH MOTHER’S LAMENT. My beautiful, my hright-eved hoy! Ah! whilherart thou roaming? Thy mother’s hope, thv mother s joy, l watch to see thee coming. I watch the sails of every ship, But all return without thee; I ask fl>r thee with quivering lip, But none knows a oglu about thee. Avoumeen Deelish! O shame, Avoumeen! summer's fled, The reaper’s time is gone, dear ! I will not dream that thou art dead, And l am left all alone, dear ! Our cabin is a dreary place. The very walls look sorrow ; But could I sec thy darling face. They’d ring with joy to-morrow. Avoumeen Deelish ! O' shame, Avoumeen ! art thou dead ? And didst thou brave the danger Os stormy seas, to toil for bread, And perish with' the stranger? Mv beautiful, my young, my brave! ’Thy mother’s heart is riven; But though I may not share thy grave, Our souls will meet :n heaven. Avoumeen Deelish! THE MAIDEN'S PRAYER. •She rose from her delirious sleep, And put away her soft brown hair. And in a tone as low, as deep, * As love’s first whisper, breal lied a prayer, rler snow-white hands together pressed, Her blue eyes sheltered in the lid, The Gilded muslin on her breast, Just swelling with rhe eharms it hid : And from her long and flowing dress, Escaped a bare and snowy loot, YVhose steps upon the earth did press, Like anew snow-flake, white and mute ; And then from her slumbers soft and warm, Like a young spirit fresh from heaven, She bowed that slight and matchless foe in. And humbly prayed to be forgiven. O God ! if souls misoiled as these, Need daily mercy from thy throne ; If she upon her bended knet s, Our holiest and purest one ; She with a face so clear and bright, We deem her some stray child of light; If site with those soft eyes m tears, Day after day, in her young years, Must kneel and pray for grace from thee, YVliat far, far deeper need have we! How, hardly, if she win not heaven, "Will our wiki errors lie forgiven ? Toothache. — Put a piece of lime, about ihesneof a walnut, into a rpiart bottle of water ; with this rinse rhe mouth two or three times a day, and clean the teeth, using this water every morning, if it taste strong, dilute it, for it should be just strong enough to taste the lime, and no stronger. I was tormented with the tooth ache for some weeks till I used this mixture, but have never had it since. A friend to whom I recommended it, and who was a great sufferer, has been equal ly fortunate ; she attributed her r s to rheu matism. A tier a few weeks, f asked her how the Rone water succeeded. S^. ,e ’ have never had the rheumatism since.’— Hart. Jovr. John Chambers has been re-appointed Governor of Irnva. TIIE IXITED M ATIN MAGAZINE. And Democratic Review, for 184-5. JOHN L. o’sCLLIVAN, EDITOR. THE Sixteenth Volume of the Democratic Re view commences with the present number. The Publisher cannot omit the occasion it affords, to ; congratulate its readers and friends, upon the great victory recently achieved by the cause of their common principles; a victory not less important in its consequences, than glorious in its triumph, after the unprecedented severity of the recent contest of parties. Originally established at a period of the deepest depression of the Democratic cause, in the memorable year of 1837, this Review has ever ta ken an active, and, it is believed, not ineffective part, in tiie long and keenly contested battles of opinion, by winch the country has been ever since more or less deeply agitated. Having freely shar ed the worst disasters, the gloomiest depressions, may it not fairly be allowed to ask and hope to shale now the benefit of the triumph and prosperi ty, of the Demm rsev of the country? It lias sus tained itself through .considerable portions of that period, only by large pecuniary sacrifices caused by the delinquencies of too many of ita subscribers— through seasons when zeal for the principles to which it was devoted could alone afford a motive l tor its continuance at so much unrequited expen | iliture of both money, time and intellectual effort.— Its Publisher now feels fairly entitled to invoke an active and generous friendliness of support, on the part of its subscribers and the intelligent members of its Party generally, for iis support. Our oppo nents have recently organized extensive arrange ments for the establishment of a similar work on the other side of our great division of parties—‘no counteract,” as it is said, “the pernicious influence of the Democratic Review.” Established under imposing auspices of eminent political anil liierarv names in the ranksof our opponents, anil doubtless to be sustained by the overflowing means possessed by that party, to sustain a work of that character, it thus holds out the prospect of an honorable rival ry, which the Democratic Review cheerfully ac cepts, but which the Democratic Party must libe rally contribute to enable it to maintain, in a man ner worthy of that party, and of its good, great and glorious principles. The way to serve it, and toj aid in this purpose, is, at once to remit promptly the debts which are its just and well-earned due, anil to lake some degree of active interest to pro cure it additional advance-paying subscribers. The following are among the contributors to this work: Bancroft, J. F. Cooper, Amos Kendall, Paulding, Sedgwick, Gilpin, Park Godwin, Hawthorne, Da vezac, Fumes, A. H. Everett, Brownsoo, C. J. Ingersoll, Buffer, Cainbreleug. The monthly Financial and Commercial articles, which have frequently been pronounced by the most intelligent criticisms during the past year, in ihemselves alone worth the subscription to the work, will be continued from the same able Land. Terms. — Five dollars per annum, payable in ad vance : each number will contain one hundred and lour closely primed pages, and embellished with a finely engraved portrait.

We have made arrangements which will enable hr to present our friends with embellishments of very superior taste, style and finish. In this res pect it is our firm purpose, if possible, to outvis all competition. Our music and engravings, we con fidently believe, will not lie equalled— verv certain ly they shall not be surpassed in real merit", bv those of any other magazine. Be propose to give each month, two or more superb engravings, indepen dently of Iwo pages of music by the most eminent composers, and plate ofauthenticfashions. Regarding the literary and editorial conduct of the Columbian, the publisher 'doe* not feel called upon to say more than a very few words. The general management of this department is confided to the gentleman who has hitherto given abundant evidence, not only of the highest ability m put forth a meritorious magazine and one exactly adap ted to the tastes of all readers, with whom "is asso ciate'll another gentleman of ability and experience. The publisher therefore, lias every confidence that what has already been done lor the literalv value of this journal, will be dime again. lie aie perfectly willing that our future in this respect should he estimated by our past.
