THE HOPE OF THE BROKEN-HEARTED
BY MAYNE REID.
God of Heaven! —has she pe. ished.
All on eaith I ever cherished ?
Can a hope not yet be nourished !
Say not every hope is fled!
Friend—physician —save save her.
Oh! but knew you how 1 love her,
You would try your soul s endeavour
It is vain, then ! she is dead.
Dead and gone—l know not whither
But her soul returns not hither
Could I only follow thither,
Thither joying would I fly—
For in life there's no more gladness,
And the world is filled with sadness—
Living longer would be madness—
It is better far to die.
Go! and tell ine not that sorrow.
Such as mine can ever borrow
Consolation from the morow
Morrow knows no joy lor me.
For each day brings some fresh token
That in vain are kind words spoken
To the heart that has been broken—
Ever broken must it be.
*****
Shrouded in her long dark tresses
Feels she not my wild caresses?
Fells she not the lip that pre.-ses—
Presses hot upon her brow !
Hears she not my widowed mourning ?
No! that eye, once passion burning.
Not an answer is returning—
Coldlv staring at me now!
*****
I have seen what men call lairest —
Each may think his own the rarest —
But my my soul conceived her nearest
The embodiment of love:
She is there et.ll—look upon her!
For decay hath not yet won her—
And though Death’s damp hand is on her.
Does she not your pulses move ?
Saw you e’er a cheek so tender!
Or a hand so white and slender !
Or a waist that would engender
Such a yearing to caress?
Saw you eye so liquid ever!
Or a lip so luring ? Never!
’Twould have made your heart-strings’ quiver
But in life that lip to press.
And she loved me—she had sworn it—
She had won my heart and worn it—
Oh! the anguish that hath torn it.
They alone can know, who part
With the one and only being,
Who, by Nature's kind decreeing,
Hath been blended with their being
And entwined around their heart.
She had neither father —mother—
Without sister—Without brother!
She and 1 were to each other
All the world and all its joy :
From our hearts each day united,
By our lips fresh vows were plighted—
And our souls with love benighted,
Never dreamt of its alloy.
Oft at midnight from my sleeping
T have woke, and found her weeping—
md her jealous vigil keeping—
Keeping o’er me in my sleep!
For her love was ever zealous—
Never cold and barely jealous—
For the loss of such love, tell us,
Is it strange that now I weep ?
Oh! then tell not that sorrow
Such as mine can ever borrow
Consolation from the morrow—
Morrow knows no joy for me:
For each day brings some fresh token
That in vain arc kind words spoken
To the heart that has been broken—
Ever broken must it be!
*****
And I know ’tis vain and folly—
Most profane, and mo.-t unholy
Thus to mourn; since fate hath lowly—
Lowly laid her lovely form:
Vet tar vainer were the notion,
That a life-time of devotion,
Could allay the wild emotion,
Burning now my bosom warm.
No! 1 cannot cease to mourn her—
Though ’tis God’s own hand hath torn her—
And Ins angel that hath borne her
To that home where angels dwell—
A- I gaze, remembrance reading
In her dark eyes painful pleading,
Fresh my heart begins its bleeding
And life seems a hopeless hell!
Oh! then tell me not that sorrow
Such as mine can ever borrow
Consolation front the morrow—
Morrow knows no joy for me:
For each day brings some fresh token,
That in vain are kind words spoken
To the heart that has been broken—
Ever broken must it be.
*****
And they tell nte I am lonely—
To the world 1 seem so only—
But I never can be lonely
For by day—in dreams by night—
There’s a love-born spirit near me—
And it seems to see and hear me—
While a dark eye smiles to cheer nte
With its pure and holy light.
In the sunbeam’s mid-day brilliance,
Round me still its kind surveillance
Luring woos to sweetest dalliance
As when she was by my side!
And when night is closing o’er me.
In the darkling forms before me,
Likt- an angel watching o’er me
Seems my own sweet spirit bride.
In the midnight deep and sombre—
In nty lone and voiceless chamber,
Pouring bliss into my slumber,
O’er my bosom dark eye3 beam!
’Till my sense is drunk—yet aching
With a thirst that knows no slaking—
And my giddy soul, awaking,
Half denies it was a dream!
Could a love so well united—
I” or our very souls were plighted—
Could such love by death be blighted !
Blighted, never more to bloom ?
O, give me hope that’s sweeter!
Tell me—tell me I shall meet her,
And w.th burning kisses greet her
In a land beyond the tomb!
Yes ! amidst my desolation—
’ 1 is not fancy s talse creation—
That a strange sweet consolation
Heals my bleeding, broken heart!
And it tells me, “t wJI be given
for our hearts thus rudely riven,
To unite again in Heaven,
Never, never more to part!

THE ffFFT
OR. JEREMY SHORT GIVING IN HIS
EXPERIENCE
As thistles wear the softest down,
To hide their prickles till they're grown,
And then declare themselves, and tear
Whatever ventures to come near.— Hudibras.
“ How are you, my dear fellow ?
John, a chair for Mr. Graham —excuse
my rising, ton see I’m gouty —beef-
steaks and bumpers have done it la>t,
and. though only sixty-seven, I’m real
ly beginning to feel old.”
“ W hat! and yet reading a novel!”
I was reading of a young vi
fugo, who, with the appearance of an
angel, had the temper of a demon. 1
felt the more interested in the subject
because she reminds me of the heroine
ol that picture—the one over the man
tle-piece—‘The Tiff,’ 1 call it.”
4 * have often heard you say, Jere
my that there was a story connected
with it. Tell me the tale.”
1 ’ up the lire—take ache
root. John, retire till you’re called—
and now, my dear lad, we’ll be as cosy
lor the rest of the evening as if we’d
just eaten a Thanksgiving dinner, and
had had our fill of boilded turkey and
ster sauce. ‘ Blessed be the man.’
as Sancho Panza says of sleep, that first
invented turkeys—though to my taste,
it would be better if they all ran about,
ready boiled, swimming in gravy and
oysters. But to my tale.
“ When l was about twenty —that
was in the year 1803—contemporane
ous, 1 believe, with your grandfathers
marriage—-1 knew as pretty a girl as
ever sewed a sampler on week days,
or carried Iter prayer-book on Sundays
to church.
“Bella Belgrave was the beauty of
the district. Her step was such as a
dryad's might be supposed to be; her
eyes were as dazzling as the sun at
noon-day; her lips were fragrant as
strawberries, and twice as sweet; and
her voice—sir, if you could have heard
it, you would have fancied that a night
ingale had nestled in her throat, or that
St. Cecilia herself was come down from
heaven. At twenty, a man falls in love
as naturally as he takes to smoking;
and he does both, 1 suppose, to prove
himself full-grown. Well, l soon lost
my heart to Bella. Nor was my suit
hopeless. lam handsome yet, as you
see—don’t laugh tit me, you young
scapegrace —and, of course, 1 was hand
some at twenty. I wrote poetry, too,
which won girls’ hearts then just as a
moustache does now ; and I had a pret
ty little fortune; so 1 was soon the ac
cepted lover of Bella.
“ Bella possessed but one fault —she
had a deuce of a temper. Now, a lit
tle sharpness in a wife may occasional
ly be very excellent, just to spice the
monotony of matrimony, its mustard
spices beef; but too much of it is as
bad as spilling the contents of a whole
pepper-box in your plate, when you had
just taken the last bit of what was nice
on the table. Not that Bella was what
is called quick-tempered—l often w ish
she had been—for it is better to blow
off superabundant steam now and then,
than to keep it screwed stubbornly
down, till, some day, a grand explosion
takes place, that sends everything to
kingdom come. Unfortunately, Bella
both took offence easily, and then
‘nursed her wrath to keep her warm.’
She had been so much petted that no
thing short of abject slavery on the
part of a lover would suit her; and
i'fhith, 1 grew tired at last, as you shall
hear.
“ One day 1 had been singing to her
a ballad she had asked me to write to
some of her music, w hen one of her
friends came in—a dashing little crea
ture she was—since a great grand
mother, my lad, with three hundred and
fifty lineal descendants, egad—and I.
as in duty bound, did my Lest to be
agreeable. Scarcely, however, had the
visitar gone, when Bella with a face
like a thunder-cloud, began. ‘ Mightv
sociable you and Alice Green are !’ she
said, *1 suppose you’re half in love
with her still? 1 always heard you
were her most devoted admirer.’
‘“Now Bella,’ 1 said, ‘don’t be jeal
ous ’
“ ‘Jealous! - she exclaimed, stamping
her little foot, while her eyes flashed
fire : ‘it is time to be jealous, sir, w hen
every pretty face you meet tempts you
to neglect me. But I’m not jealous—
I’m only ashamed of you, sir.’
“ ‘My dear, lovely creature,’ I began
again, trying to take her hand. But she
jerked it pettishly away.
“ ‘Don’t dear me,’ she broke forth—
‘you know you don’t love me ; you
never come here more than once a day,
while Harry Saville, whom I dismissed
for you —more fool I—used to be here
three times a day, and always dined
with us on Sundays.’
“ 1 began to grow red in the face, I
assure you, at being thus talked to ; but
1 mastered my rage —you know I’m a
meek man, it’s because of that I was
chosen president of the Peace Society ,
—and said meekly, ‘ Bella, dear, don’t
be foolish ! 1 love you better than till
the rest of your sex put together ; but
you musn’t expect me to neglect, nay,
insult by my rudeness, every other wo
man 1 meet. Once for all, let this be
understood between us.’
“ Woman's rights were not yet
thought of, my boy, and wives were
expected to obey their husbands, as
nature and Scripture command. I deem
ed it high time for asserting my prerog
atives, and spoke accordingly. ‘Yes !’ I
repeated, ‘you are unjust; you ask too
much, my dear Bella.’
•She made no answer,but sat sullen
and sulky. I again attempted to take
her hand, and, thinking I had spoken
too harshly, used a tone of mild per
suasion. But she only replied by jerk
ing her hand away, and removing her
chair from me. 1 expostulated with
her; I told her how idle was her jeal
ousy ; but, the more earnestly I de
fended myself, the farther she hitched
her chair round, until she brought its
back directly against that of mine.
“ I now gave up explanations, and
sat silent. Her pettishness began to
open my eyes. She had always been
unreasonably exacting ; her vanity for
ever ran ahead of possible attentions;
and the jealousy, thus unjustly enter
tained,yet continually smothered by her
sullen temper, was now come to a crisis.
As I stole an occasional look at her,
over my shoulder, I saw no longer any
beauty in that sulky face. My love was
fast changing to anger. 1 asked myself
why I had submitted so long to her
tyranny.
“ et, fearing that l might be also
in the wrong, though unconscious how,
I made a last effort, after we had sat
for some time in silence, to conciliate
her. For this purpose, I threw my
hand over my shoulder, and dangling
my glove so as to let it playfully strike
her head, 1 said, smiling and speaking
gaily, ‘A penny for your thoughts,
Bella. Come,forgive and forget. We’ve
had a very pretty quarrel, now let's
make it up. You know the making up
is always the sweetest part of it.’ And,
as l spoke, I wheeled my chair round,
and would have put m) arm around her
as of old.
“ Did you ever see a tigress in a fu
ry ? If not, you've no idea how Bella
lookedthen. She had been sitting,pout
ing, pulling at a chain to which was
attached my miniature; she now sprang
to her feet, her eyes emitting fire like
an electric-machine in the dark, and
her whole countenance distorted with
passion.
‘“Unhand, me, sir,’ she cried, ‘how
dare you touch me after having in
sulted me ? Leave the house this in
stant, sir!’
“ I had borne a good deal; 1 was
not going to endure any more. I had
never dreamed that my charmer had
such a temper. I replied, haughtily,
‘As you please, miss ; but if I go now,
remember I go for ever.’
“ She became white as death for an
SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE.
instant —1 had spoken firmly, and she
knew me to be resolute —but directly
her face grew redder than ever, and,
with a jerk, breaking the miniature from
its chain, she cast it, shivered into atoms
at my feet.
“‘I discard you, as 1 discard that,’
she hissed between her teeth. ‘Never
dare to come here again !
“My eyes darted lightning at her: I
was, for once in my life, in a towerin',
passion; but 1 remembered that I wa
a gentleman, and, therefore, controll
ing my tongue, I merely bowed low,
bade her a good morning, and walked
from the house.”
“ And is that all, Jeremy ?”
“ All. She repented the next day,
and sent a verbal message to me that
she forgave me; but 1 took no notice
of it. Forgave me, egad ! Yet it was
long before 1 cured myself entirely of
my passion. I often found myself on
the point of going back to her ; but, in
such moments of weakness, 1 called up
the vision ofher face inflamed with pas
sion, and thought what a precious life 1
should lead, if my wife was to treat me
to such exhibitions every now and then,
as 1 felt sure Bella would if I married
her. She actually did drive her first
husband into being a drunkard; but
her second was too tough for her; he
had buried three w ives before, and knew
how to manage viragoes; he said no
thing to her when she got into a pas
sion, and, consequently, in three years
she fretted herself to death. And now .
my dear fellow, take another cheroot,
and I’ll ring for coffee.”

PRECAUTIONS AGAINST PESTILENCE.
,i Constitutional Dialogue between Jones and Brown.
JONES.
Why, Brown, how well you look, I say.
In this alarming season.
To what you did the other day!
Old fellow, what’s the reason !
BROWN.
Well, I do feel an alter’d man,
For which I owe thanksgiving;
I’ve also rather changed the plan
And manner of my living.
JONES.
What would I give to be like you!
I’m ill and melancholy;
I wish you’d tell me what to do,
To look so fresh and jolly.
BROWN.
Then, first of all, betimes I rise.
And wash myself all over;
Not cleansing only whhat your eyes
Are able to discover.
My wife and children, too, I make,
To arm the constitution,
Each morn their soap and water take,
And do the like ablution.
Scrubb'd sweet and clean I’ve had my home
From garrets to foundation ;
And taken care, in every room,
To ’stablish ventilation.
Beneath my kitchen ran a drain,
Which oft the nose offended ;
The sink was faulty, it was plain—
I caused it to be mended.
Then, also, on a certain head
I've made a large reduction—
One mild glass only, just ere bed.
Is my extent of suction.
The money saved in drink I spend
In good, nutritious diet,
And warm apparel. Now,my friend,
You know my system—try it.
Then epidemics you may view
With very slight misgiving;
They seldom trouble people who
Adopt my style of living.
JONES.
I think you’re right, and mean to try
Your measure of protection ;
And so—please Goodness—shall defy
Contagion and infection.
MAXIMS AND OPINIONS OF FIELD
MARSHAL WIDDICOMB.
When war is concluded, all animosity
should be forgotten, 1 love to see the
British and French troops fraternize
together as soon as the battle of Wa
terloo is over. To set them a good ex
ample, 1 have often tossed with Marshal
Ney myself.
Folly may take liberties with Wis
dom, but let Wisdom once get the
whip-hand of Foly, and Folly soon
drops its tone and learns to keep a re
spectful distance.
Every man has his “ Sauve-qu-i-pent.”
I confess I should run away myself
from an engagement where 1 was told
I should meet nothing but Irishmen.
As to moral courage, 1 have rarely
met the three-months-after-date kind.
I mean unprepared courage, that which
enables a man, without wincing, to put
his name to a bill the moment it is
placed before him.
I was madly fond of Poetry, as a
young man, but I had to stand one
morning at rehearsal at Ducrow’s Pe
gasus, and he kicked it all out of me.
I travelled once with Gomersal.
“What are you?” said the man at the
passport office. “I am the Child of
Destiny!” loudly answered Gomersal,
as naturally as if he had been that mo
ment on the Field of Waterloo. lie
was very indignant when his costume
of Buonaparte was taken away from
him at Boulogne. I recollect he was
very nearly imprisoned out of mistake
tor Prince Louis Napoleon, and only
owed his escape to the fact of his not
being able to speak a word of French.
Whether he cherished any designs upon
the French throne, it would be the
height of presumption in me to say.
If people are discontented, give them
a riddle. It is astonishing how quiet
they become. lam positive, if riddles
were to be asked in the House of Com
mons, that many of those riotous pro
ceedings would be put a stop to, which
are a disgrace to a civilized community.
They call me ambitious, but my only
ambition has been to be the centre of
the most fashionable circle in London,
and in this I have long ago succeeded.
If my ambition had been of a “vault
ing kind, there is not a barrier in
man's path, which, with the horses at
my command, I could not easily have
leapt over. Those who call me ambi
tious, little know me.
It was Napoleon’s favourite boast,
that “ he had made all his Generals out
of mud.” I may boast the same origin
for mine, for, as a rule, I never make a
man a General in my army until 1
know he is a “ thorough brick.”
If you ask me which are the best
troops, I answer, “ The Irish.” They
will stand fire like a mutton chop.—
Their love of fighting leads them into
all sorts of disturbances. They should
have been born razors, they tire such
such delicious blades for a scrape. In
fact, if there is a quarrel in the street,
you may make up your mind to this —
that an Irishman is as sure to be there
as a policeman is not.
The May Prince.— lt has been au
thoritatively announced that the new
Prince, having been born on the birth
day of the Duke of Wellington, is to
be named Arthur, in compliment to the
Hero of Waterloo. We perfectly Ap
prove of this arrangement, and regret
that we cannot second the su merest ion
of a highly respectable deputation ot
chimney-sweeps, who waited outside
our office on Wednesday last, with a
proposal that, in consequence of the
royal infant having been born on Chim
ney Sweepers’ Day, he should be called
the Black Prince.
Something New Under the Si n. —
Another Comet is announced shortly to
make its first appearance those three
hundred years. If all the Comets arrive
that are predicted, we doubt if the sky
will be large enough to hold such a
Fosse Comet-atus !
ißrlntir nf Bit.
Dreaming for a Breakfast —Down
in Aroostook county, Maine, a Scotch
man and an Irishman happened to be
journeying together through the most
interminable forest of that region, and
by some mishap had lost their way and
wandered about in a pitiable condition
fora while, when they fortunately came
across a miserable hovel, which was
deserted save by a lone chicken. As
this poor biped was the only thing
eatable to lie obtained, they eagerly
despatched and prepared it for supper.
\\ hen laid before them, Pat concluded
that it was insufficient for the support
of both himself and Sawney, and
therefore a proposition was made to
his companion that they should spare
the chicken until the next morning, and
the one who had the most pleasant
dream should have the chicken, which
was agreed to. In the morning Sawney
told his dream. He thought angels
were drawing him up to Heaven in a
basket, and he was never before so
happy. Upon concluding his dream,
Pat exclaimed, “ Och, sure, and by Ja
bers, i saw you going, and thought you
wouldn’t come back after the chicken,
and 1 got up and ate it myself /”
Love and Mathematics. —Among
the numerous acquirements of a cele
brated French lady, Mdlle. de Launay,
was geometry, which enabled her to
express the amount of attachment felt
for her by a lover, w ith a degree of
precision that is seldom attained in
chronicling affairs of the heart. A cer
tain M. de Key was in the habit of es
corting her home from the house of a
friend. r l hey had to cross a square,
and in the commencement of the ac
quaintance, to prolong the moments of
tender intercourse, he always conducted
her along its sides. Time passed on,
his passion became less warm, and lie
led her directly across it; on which the
lady “concluded that his love had di
minished in the same proportion which
exists between the diagonal of a square
and the sides of (he same.”
A Distinction. —A Roman ecclesi
astic, in reply to whatever question
might be proposed, began by saving,
“1 make a distinction.” A cardinal
having invited him to dine, proposed
to derive some amusement for the
company from the well-known peculi
arity of his guest. Saying to him that
he had an important question to pro
pose, lie asked, “Is it, under any cir
cumstances, lawful to baptise in soup?”
“1 make a distinction,” said the priest;
“if you ask, is it lawful to baptise in
soup in general, I say no! if you ask,
is it lawful to baptise in your excel
lency’s soup, J say yes! for there is
really no difference between it and
water.”
A Barrister’s Pun. — “Plunket,”
said O’Connell, “had great wit. He
was a creature of exquisite genius.
Nothing could be happier than his hit
in reply to Lord Itedesdale about the
kites. In a speech before liedesdale,
Plunket had occasion to use the phrase
“ kites very frequently, as designat
ing fraudulent hills and promissory
notes. Lord liedesdale, to whom the
phrase was quite new, at length inter
rupted him, saying, “1 don’t quite un
derstand your meaning, Mr. Plunket.
In England, kites are paper playthings
used by boys; in Ireland they seem to
mean some monetary transactions.”
“There is another difference, my
lord,” said Plunket; “in England the
wind raises the kite; in Ireland the kite
raises the wind”
A Juvenile's Opinion of Law.—
“Come here, my lad,” said an attorney
to a boy about nine years old. The
boy went, and asked the attorney what
case avhs to be tried next. The lawyer
answered, “A case between the people
and the devil—which do you think
will be the most like to gain the action?”
The boy replied, “I guess it will be a
pretty hard squeeze—they people have
got the most money, but the devil the
most lawyers.”
Negro Wit. —“ Jack,” said a gentle
man to an old negro who was rather
lazily engaged in clearing the snow
from his premises; “Jack, my old boy,
you don’t get along with this job very
last.” “Why, master,” replied Jack,
scratching his avool, “pretty consider
able for an old man, I guess; and I
conceit myself, that 1 can clear more
snow away in dese short days than the
spryest nigga in the city could do in
the longest summer day as ever was.”
He Died High. —An Irishman who
was talking in rather ambiguous terms
about the sudden death of his paternal
relative, was asked if he had lived
high! “Well, 1 can’t say he did,” said
Terence, “but he died high.” “Why,
what do you mean?” “ Faith, I mean
that, like the Habeas Corpus Act, he
was suspended.''’
Effects of Liquor.— Magistrate. —
What has brought you here, sir?
Prisoner. —Two policemen, please
your honour.
Magistrate. —Then 1 suppose liquor
had nothing to do with it ?
Prisoner. —Yes, sir. They w r as both
drunk!
UrttMngs nt llnahim.
“ A miss is as good as a mile,” said
a young lady. “ Much better some
times,” observed the gentleman she
was conversing with.
Aunt Betsy would like the shower
bath very well, it* it didn’t come down
| so, and wasn’t so wet, like. She thinks
| it quite shocking.
A correspondent says, “Having seen
in your paper that Lola Montes was
the daughter of a Cork lady, 1 beg to
ask whether that does not fully account
for her light character ?”
A gentleman invited out to dinner
was looking at a small book of miscel
laneous pictures, and observed to the
lady of the house, “Y on asked me out
to dine, and I have found some scraps.”
“ Henry, love,” 1 wish you would
throw away that book and talk with
me —I feel so dull.” (A long silence
and no reply.) “O, Henry, my foot
is asleep!” “Is it—well, don't talk,
dear, you might wake it.”
A Hexham barber was bragging that
i he could shave anything —even “the
face of Nature.” “Faith,” said an Irish
reaper, who chanced to be in the shop,
“what of that ? I shave the face of
nature oft enough, Id a hook!”
A man who was reprimanded by a
; divine for swearing, replied that he did
not see any harm in it. “No harm in
I it!” said the minister; “what, do you
not know the commandment, ‘Swear
not at all?'” “1 do not swear at all”
I said the man, “I only swear at those
who annoy me.”
“ I will bet you a bottle of wine that
you shall descend from that chair before
; l ask you twice.” “Done,” said the
; gentleman, who seemed determined not
! to obey the summons so obediently.
! “Come down.” “ I will not,” was the
| reply. “ Then stop up until I ask you
j a second time.” The gentleman having
no desire to retain the position till that
period, came down from the chair, and
| the party won the wager.

JOSEPH GILLOTT’S STEEL PENS.
MANUFACTURER’S WAREHOUSE,
91 JOHN-STREET, NEW YORK.
AI.ARGEstock of these well known PENS constantly
on hand, for sale as above.
CAUTlON.—Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC
TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil
i.ott’s style of Lauel, his mode of putting up his
Pens, and also Designating Numbers, he desires to
give the following
NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.
That all genuine packages or boxes of Joseph Gil
lott’s Pens have a sac simile of his signature on the
reverse side. None other are genuine. This caution espe
cially refers to his original No. 303, the great popularity of
which has caused it to be imitated, and the number adopt
ed by a host of pretended makers.
Joseph Gillott would further advise the public that,
in all cases where his Numbers and the phraseology of his
Labels are adopted by the parties above alluded to, the
Pens are not made by him, although asserted to be.
An experience of thirty years has enabled Mr. Gillott to
bring iiis Steel Pens to the HIGHEST state of perfec
tion, and the liberal patronage which he has long enjoyed
at tlte hands of the American public, will incite him to con
tinued exertion to maintain the favor which he lias ac
quired. HENRY OWEN, Agent.
