The following melodious and touching poem is from the
pen of the late lamented Willis Gaylord Clark, and was
written by him for an early number of The Knickerbocker
Magazine. :
A Sonj of May.
The Spring’s scented buds all around me are swelling—
There are songs in the stream, there is health in the gale;
A sense ot delight in each bosom is dwelling,
As float the pure day-beams o’er mountain and vale;
The desolate reign of Old Winter is broken—
The verdure is fresh upon every tree ;
Os Nature’s revival the charm, and a token
Oflove, oh thou Spirit of Beauty! to tliee.
The sun looketh forth from the halls of the morning.
And flushes lire clouds that begirt his career;
Ho welcomes the gladness and glory, returning
To rest on the promise and hope of the year ;
He fills with rich light all th® balm-breathing flowers—
He mounts to the zenith, and laughs on the wave ;
He wakes into music .the green forest-bowers,
And gilds the gay plains which the broad rivers lave.
The young bird is out on his delicate pinion—
He timidly sails in the infinite sky ;
A greeting to May, and her fairy dominion,
He pours on the west-wind’s fragrant sigh ;
Around, above, there are peace and pleasure—
The woodlands are singing—tho heaven is bright ;
The lields are unfolding their emerald treasure,
And man’s genial spirit is soaring in light.
Alas, for my weary and care-haunted bosom ?
The spells of tho spring-time arouse it no more ;
The song in the wild-wood —the sheen of the blossom —
The fresh-welling fountain—their magic is o’er !
When I list to the streams—when 1 look on the flowers,
‘1 hey tell of the Past, with so mournful a tone,
That I call up the throngs of my long-vanished hours,
And sigh that their transports are over and gone.
From the wide-spreading earth —from tho limitless heaven,
There have vanished an eloquent glory and gleam ;
To my veil’d mind no more, is tho influence given,
Which coloreth life with the hues of a dream ;
The bloom-purpled landscape its loveliness keeDeth—
I deem that a light, as of old, gilds the wave ;
But the eye ot my spirit in heaviness sleepeth,
Or sees but my youth, and the visions it gave.
Y r et it is not that age on my years hath descended—
’Tis not that its snow-wreaths encircle my brow ;
But the newness and sweetness of Being are ended—
I feel not their love kindling witchery now !
The shadows of Death o’er my path have been sweeping—
There are those who have loved me, debarred from
the day ;
The green turf is bright, where in peace they are sleeping,
And on wings ol remembrance my soul is away.
It is shut to the glow of this present existence—
It hears, from the Past, a funeral strain;
And it eagerly turns to the high-seeming distance,
Where the lost blooms of earth will be garnered again ;
Where no mildew the soft, damask-rose cheek shall nour
ish ;
Where Grief bears no longer the poisonous sting ;
Wheie pitiless Death no dark scepter can flourish,
Or stain with his blight the luxuriant spriug.
It is thus that the hopes which to others are given
Fall cold on my heart in this lich month of May ;
I hear the clear anthems that ring through the heaven ;
I drink the bland airs that enliven the day ;
And if gentle Nature, her festival keeping,
Delights not my bosom, ah ! do not condemn ;
O’er the lost and the lovely my spirit is weeping,
For my heart’s fondest raptures are buried with them !
How it Sounds.
Gist, a somewhat noted man of letters, out West,
repudiates the idea of calling every tnan Honorable
Mr. This and Honorable Mr. That, who happens to
become a Congress-man, or member of Legislature.
He also goes against putting Esq. to his own or or
dinary built men’s cognovit . We beg leave to differ
just as much as anybody with Mr. Cist. Let such
men “go in” for these fancy nubs te their names,
just as much as they like ; they would be super
fluous to other and greater men. Can you conceive
how queer it would sound to hear a speaker, or see
a writer, refer to his Excellency, Mr. Julius Ciesar !
or, the Honorable Mr. Shakspeare, or ihe Honora-
Mr. Byron, or Honorable Mr. Ben. Franklin ! No,
let the “penny dips” go in for the “flubdubs,” as
Milton says. Such luminaries as Ctesar, Hanni
bal, Shakspeare, Byron, and Franklin, are tubs able
to stand on their own bottoms, without a hoop on ’.
Mr. Cist is more nice than discriminating in matters
pertaining to two-horse heroes.
It Admits of Doubt.
Whether the following observation of Dean Swift,
which we find quoted by the Weekly Neics under
the head of “fluency,” be founded in truth or fallaev
We submit the proposition to the decision of our
leaders:
“The common fluency of speech in many men,
and most women, is owing to a scarcity of matter,
and a scarcity of words , for whoever is a master
of language, and hath a mind full of ideas, will be
apt in speaking to hesitate upon ihe choice tt
both ”
Ghosts. —Ghosts be hanged !” said Tom Hood.
“No such things in nature. All laid long ago be
fore the wood pavement. What should they come
for! The colliers may rise for higher wages, and
the Chartists may rise for reform, and Joseph
Sturge may rise for his health ; and bread may rise;
and the rising generation may rise ; but that the
dead should rise, only to make one’s hair rise, is
more thm I can believe. Suppose yourself a ghost
Well, if you come out ot your grave to serve a
friend, how are you to help him ! And if its's au
enemy, what’s the use of appearing to him if you
can’t pitch into him ?”
