RETROSPECTION.
When sh.-il my send, in silent peace,
“Resign' life’s joyful day P*
My w-nary iieart its throbbing ceases.
When I beheld her first,
s>h- was all life,and bloom, and loveliness;
ilev rye’s bright beam spoke of unclouded
lippcs—
Her lingering smile seemed the proud liglit
of day,
Melted to evening’s pensiveness. In her,
The many charms which youth and beauty gave
Woe re tempered with the purity of miud.
The sweet intelligrncn that always shone
In her “soft ways of pleasantness,” with wit
sportive, yet so gentle, was combined,
That to the wearied spirit, it was like
The enlivening brilliancy of pome clear stream
sparkling in moonlight—and her varying mien,
Lovely in all its changes, still was fraught
W ith so much tenderness that I did love
To watch its kindly spreading iirfiucnee,
Amidst her social scenes
f>li, long her memory will be fondly held
Within my breast!
But, ?*••••, thou art gone—
Eonc to the lonely grave—then fare thee well!
The eloquence of grief cannot recall
Thee back to life.
Yet her similitude
Will oft be traced with tearful interest
In her own lov ’,y child. Oh, svyect memento!
To a fond father’s heart how passing dear !
. ohe, in her wonted loveliness, shall still
Be shrined in memory, and when my thoughts,
By wandering fancy led, shall visit scenes
And days gone by, her image will appear
•J’iito my spirit bright and beautiful
Asa reflected form upon the waves,
When gentle zephrs heave them. N. W. S.
From (he Saturday Evening Post.
KABRATII EVE.
How calmly sinks the parting sun 1
\ cl twilight lingers still,
And beautiful ns dreams of Heaven
’Tis slumbering on (he hill:
Earth sleeps with all her glorious things
Beneath the Holy Spirit's wings.
And, rendering back the hues above,
Feems resting in a trance of love.
Mysterious music from the pines,
O’er yon dark rock reclined,
Falls like the whispering words of peace
Upon the heavenly mind;
And w inds with pinions steeped in dew,
Breathe gently, as if stealing through
Prom Eden’s bowers, they, came to bless
The Spirit with their holiness.
And yonder glittering thronged’clouds,
Retiring from tire sky,
So calmly move, so sweetly glow,
They seem to fancy’s eye,
Bright creatures of a better sphere,
Oonie down at noon to worship here,
Aud from their sacrifice tf love
Returning to their homes above.
The Spirit of the Holy Eve
Comes .through-the siluit air
"To feeling’s hidden spring, and w akes
The guslr of music there:
And the far depths of either beam
So passing fair; we almost dream
"That we. can rise, and wander through
TLp (.pen paths of trackless blue.
Paeli soul is filled with glorious dreams.
Each pulse is lica'ing wild,
Arid thought is soaring to the shrine
Of glory undo-filed ; ;
And holy inspirations start.
Porth from the temple orf the heart.
And chain —for earth’s dark ties are riven—
Our spirits to the gates oflieuven.

At Bexhill barracks', some years ago, there
lived a jolly parson, who frequently (lined at

parson had certain propensities and habits.—
Some of his habits were had habits; one of
winch was to get fuddled, and thereby bring
mg iiis cloth into disfepptc. JTo was one of
those parsons called a good fellow ; the mean
ingof ’alnch is, to give short sermons—omit
halt the service—sing a good and jovial sorm
—tell a long yarn—run, fight, or wrestle—up
to a thing or two. This said parson had of
late got sm drunk, at the mess of the before
mpntioned regiment, that the commandin'/ of
ficer was resolved he should not again dis
grace his.own cloth or his regiment.—Some
unfotseen event delayed this for a time, hut
one night— one awful night—the colonel was
returning (rom a party in the neighborhood,
when tue young ones had the jolly parson to j
sup with them. No sooner had the colonel 1
entered the gate ot the barracks, than he heard j
a tremendous noise near the mess-room, to- j
wards which lie rode, and soon found Jiisi
clerical friend rolling drunk, supported by

The waters of Saratoga and Ballston have long
since, rendered thorn places of extensive' resort,
both by invalids and persons of fashion. And the
signal benefits derived from their üße by persons
labouring under Chronic Diseases (especially of
the digestive organs) have obtained for them well
merited celebrity—and from a pretty accurate
analysts, by gentlemen of competent science,
comparing too result with the analysis of the
Waters of Saratoga and Ballston, as published by
Dr. Mead, they find the waters of the Montpelier,
Spring, to possess, with a trilling exception the
same chemical qualities. Asa chalybeate cqntaiu

the absence of uncombined fixed air, wi th which
the Saratoga.water abounds. Of the beneficial
application of this water in disease, tlie proprietor
can bear ample testimony.

A CARD.
In cornmeneinn-the publication of a nc „. ,
nine oft'io L vov’s Book, the proprietors
avail themselves ot the opportuniiy thus off V
of again inviting attention to their Work tre> *
Notwithstamling the necessary unavoid-u
thuicultuLS which they have had t !e
tend, they find themselves at’ the close c f t V°T
first year enjoying, through an unexampled ,
tent of patronage all the advantages which h e )^; :
to old established and long prospergus pu!j p
ttons. 1- or tins liberality on tlie jiart of tL ~ , \
lie they arc truly grateful, and it shall V o- !
pride and pleasure to pursue such means as
deserve its continuance. The same zeal and j ■
votion which they have hitherto felt and
t.-d in regard to their work, will still I, e f UU nd
influence them, mid with the .additional
now witliin their reac-li they hope to leader tS
coming volume even more attractive than t] i
which has just been closed. Tb.ey have in
temptation many imjirovements, a particular '
mneration of which they deem unhnportnn- nil
doubting that ffie promptness and fidelity Vp
which they have fulfilled all formeremra.rci Pc . S
have created jiublie confidence in their' ability ’
j periiirm whatever they may fed disposed to ud
| dertakc. They prefer that their work ahmildU
tested by its own merits, rather than rely f,. f
i jicrton any specious promises wiiicli they
put forth.
Since tlie cemmcncement of The Ladv's I)w
tlie ]nib!ishcrs have, avoided all proper ma*ter a*
offence to the proprietors of,contemporary period
icals. In the occasional notices-" hick they I ■'
felt, themselves called upon to make inr(.-la;j o ,'‘! U
i tho progress and prospects- of their own \yr-rt
they have made no allusion which could fie 2
strui-d disparagingly toothers. They have
sued this course from niutives of justice and Bold
et as ell because it corresponded with ttm
own feelings, as beeausejhcj believed it woi-TU
contribute to tlieir interests. They believed r e
with the American public no good end could i*
aeliieved by uneaUed-fcr interferenco with ( iJ
rights of others, and they have vet to learn tlmtifil
this opinion they have been ißmtaken, The mt •
1 whieh they iiave hitherto received assure’-
| ! h t n W T’-'-Lf-ivourable regard in which their work?
is held ; and liicy know tjiat they can only i ( „,i
for future eneoiirngehieht in ;l proper emnla-t

give increased satisfaction.;. 1 ’

of tlie public press in ajf sections rf
the country. Fhe general commendation which
these gentlemen have bestowed upon their work
is doubly gratifying to them because they h'-v
reason to believe it is deserved, and they know
[ it has been productive of great advantatrp _
R ls a source of much excusable pride to the mife.
lishers tliaUhe comments which the Book Laa
(dieted have uniibrmily been l’avoijralde. b!;.,,
instance have-they had the mortification of find

properly appreciated. The publishers cannot he

vertisement. of a eontemporary journal, to which
their attention lias been speciajly called,
meant to allude to tlie Lady's Book. The i,wh..
nations there expressed concerning “mit-idf pfau
mere reprint and mutilated "music,” can have r.’>
reference to a publication whose costly emM
lisliments and general merits have been for many
months a liu-ine of goneraUadmiration and eulo
gy. They cannot think the publishers cl’ the
journal spoken of so deficient in respect to a puls
lie upon whom they depend for support, as u
charge that public witli a gross want of per
ception, and nn inability to discriminate in m o
tors of literary judgement. 'l’he ptthlisliers |j

goner, ofa malicious spirit; hut they will not wil-S
ltngly believe that the conductors of IhejotiraaL
to which they have had allusion ought to he itler
tified with either of these classes. °On the corf,
trary, they arc.satisfied that the ambiguous-eenl
sures thuSjSqn-pad before the pultlie are intended
to be applied to some publication whose wantuf
merit rendered it obnoxious to such eoadcuuw'
ticn.
1 iie Publishers of Tint Tj.vny’s Book hare o!.-.
served that several monthly periodicals have n<t
only imitated the general arrangement of their
work, hut have also attempted to follow theirex
ample in illustrating the Fashions. This tacit
acknowledgement of the superiority of their nhu
is certainly gratifying, and they recognize it with
pleasure; hut at the same time they cannot for
bear saying that as they wfre the first to. intro
duce successfully this particular species of embel
lishment, so they can now present it in a form of
greater perfection than it can readily he aceoin
plished by others. They do not make this
invidiously, hut as an.,act of sipipje justice to
themselves, and the artists employed under their
directions.
In concluding this card 'the publishers renew
their assurances of steadily persistin'/inilieii cim
deavours to improve the character o, Trill Lady’s
Book. In its present state they Iniveno fear'of
a comparison with any similar publication, ant
they Hatter themselves that the time is not distant
when its will L>e generally neknowl
edged. They have no wish to boast ef -corres
pendents in Russia or “Constantinople,” satisfi'd
that whatever they may require in this way they
can procure much nearer home. They arc too
.Jmincanjn their feelings to build their chims for
support upon foreign aid or foreign praise, though
both might be easily obtained without incurring
any'serious expense. The publishers have more
pleasure in receiving the unbougl l/ testimonials nr
their own countrymen, than tiny could possibly
