My memory often, czrr'ries_ me back
Ti) the scenes ofrtty chiItIhood’s ‘home,
‘When we used to follow the l'ox’s track,
And tlrrough the woodland roam.
Past. hopes rcvive, past pl_e:rsur'cs live,
Past bliss mind employs,
When I think of‘ the spot where fcll ourlot
\Vhcn you and I were boys. '
The little place at the foot ofthe hill,
The place whiclt gave as birth.
Q11, does it retain its beauties still.
That dearest spot on earth? ‘
Arc flowers as fair, is the arbor tl_fret'e.,
IVhcre we always kci_tt'out' toys, -
A_rc the w:r1'blet"s lays ‘us they were in the days,
\Vhcn you and I were boys?
Do the chesnuts still on the hill top grow,
Does the brook go dashing along.
Dttcs the robin usccrrd the walnut now,
To chant his morning song ’l '
Is the grove still there, and the thicket where
‘V6 placed our rabit decoys, '
Just down in the doll that we loved so well,
\-Vlreu you andI were boys 7
Do they keep the school in the old lrouse, yet
On the comrnon a(_:i'0ss the way, ’
VVhere we atroop of villagers met,
Less anxious for study than play?
Is heard the roar ofthe rnill d:1rri’s pour,
And the gristmill’s clatterirrg noise,
\Vher'e we used to ride by our f'rrthcr’s side,
II,/lien you and I were boys ‘I
\
Does the church still stand away in the dell
IVhe1'c the lmntsutan winds lrishoru,
Do the villagers hear‘ that some old bell
On every Sabbath morn’! "
Oh say, do they all remain unchanged
Tltosc scenes ofso many joys,
Are they still the same as they were
\'Vlreu you and I were boys’!
REASON AND LOVE.
REASON and L01-'E,Ol1e sntnmcr noon,
‘Ncnt out to rove together;
The wild birds sang their sweetest tune,
' ’ ‘was sparkling sunny weather.
Soon the wild boy began to play
Among the leafy horvcrs,
\Vlrilc reason warned hint not to stray,
And talked of’ tlarltcuirrg hours.
Love lartgh’d. he headed not such things
H \Vhilc all was bright arountl hint,
B_ut shook the strnslrinc from his wings,
And tltrretl the Imp! to flout hint.
€‘R:rslr boy I” cried Graylrcard; “prithee move;
You see how first day closes—”
‘.‘H_ow very glowitrgl_v,” smiled Love,
‘*'.l.‘lte sun sets on the roses!”
Reason still argucd—love grew watjm,
And every caution siightcd ',
Till Re-arotr yielded to the cltarm,
They sta_y’d and were beniglrtcd.
And thus the case will ever prove,-
To dortbt the fact were treason ; 3
Reason is oft misled by Love,
Lo vc 1_ievet' yields to Reason!
THE VVIFE FOR ME.
I secl; :1 female in whose heart
Donre's_tici\‘irtucsi share :1 part;
Not fond of gutrriy dress or show,
To please sortie foppish soitselcss beau;
\Vlio’tl ratlrer at her rvmk be ’séor;,
'7\tld|-oaaing ovary nriixle she meets,
In biistliug mart or‘ c‘t"owded streets;
But one, intelligent and kind,
VVitlr every virtue well refined,
‘Who loves her‘ home and there will shine.
A" devotee to wisdotn’s shrine ; ‘
Such ii‘I tnoet, trite she will be,
And make :1 happy wife for me.

PRESIDENT ED\VAR.DS.
\Ve find the following sketch ofthis great
man in an article on the ‘Ditties of a Theo
logian,’ furnished for the Biblical Reposito-
ry, by Professor Park, of the Andovcr insti-
tution:
"Edwartls rose up after Calvin, and it were
as are so atnbiiiunsi to be called by his name.
The style of thinking ‘among"our dis-‘int-s is
so far (It(t(lv’le(.l after‘ him, that his irnp'erft=c-_-
lions will suggest our own. And his failing
was in too cxclu.-zive :1 reg-arcl to one portion
of our st-nsibilities. He seemed to live apart
from many of the innocent cravings and
syrnprrtliies of his race. He learned early
in life the ‘great lessons of ministt-rial digni-
ty. His father‘, the venerable patriarch of
Windsor, was fond of ‘appe-aring'in the full
dress ofa clergyman, wt-:-ar'ing'evt-tn’ in his
parocliial visits, a _blt't'ck gown, and sometimes
his clerical band.‘ Pr‘esidentEdrvard§ brin-
self, visited the people of his‘ charge, ‘and
wag inclined to rvithdrarv from his promis-
cuous intercourse. I
In his singular‘ modest letter to the Trus-
tees of I\'assatt Hall, he says, ‘I have :1 con-
stitution in many respects peculiarly unh-.p-
py, attended with flaccid solids, vapid, sizy
and scarce fluids, and a low tide of spirits;
often occasioning :1 childish weakness, and
contemptibleness of speech, presence and
demeanor, with a disagreeable dulm-ss and
stiflitess; much urifiiting me for conversation
but more especially for the government of a
college.” ['19 possessed a rich imagirration,
and might have been one of the first poets of
the age, had he not chosen to be the first
theologian; but he speaks iiisparingly of
“elegance of language, and excellent style,”
and says of some of_ his discourses, they
were mostly written at a time when the cir-
cu mstancts of the auditory they were
preached to were enough to make a minister
neglect, forget and despise such ornaments
as politeness and modishiiess of style and
rrretltod.” He passed his life in :1 still ‘sei-
qucstcred valley; he resigned the salutary
‘discipline of household care-to his estimable
wife; when he entererl his sitting room, his
own children, it isisaid, were in the habit of
risiirg up in lokcn"of their ‘well merited
reverence; but he ate a sparing meal, and
lived more like a spirit than a partaket‘ of
flesh and blood.
He was indeed hunrble as a little child
before God, but he often went forth among
mett, not so much like a fellow man, as like
11 vice-gerentof the great law-giver. When
an opponent rose up against" him he bore
and pressed him down by the force of his
honest and with loving temper. His reply
to Dr. Taylor, of Norwich, it is said to have
contributed, in connection trtith other sources
of morlificaitiou, to hasten the‘ death of that
eminent writer. '1-‘-hé,reur_a rliable confessions,

A Btu/ti-/r_g Scene.—Mr. Kendall, in his
Szrnta Fe Sltctclres says: hi 1 A
‘At Oje Crrliento there is it rotund warm
\\'t‘ll in the edge of the town, and _sev_er_al bf
our party visited, it for the purpose ofbathing.
The water boils up in great tptantittes, and
forms a large and deep basin fromithé very

fortablc. Before we liift tho lii§gc ’ "a_tlri",g-f
tub our party was iricrcasod by the arrival
of severil lllexicttn girls, who, noi£the" long"
tlauntcd by our presence, i_ri_tr'ncd'irite‘l‘yjoine"
in our aquatic sports. With merry andjoyl
ous laughter they cninrnia-'tt'ci-d splashing the
water about them; now diving to the bottom
and then rising to the surface shakipg
water from their loric-=‘" hgir aftd paddling
about like I\Ierv Eodndland dogs. The cus-
tours o_l'ttte' Eountry sanction the open com-_
rriigsiriir of such scenes as I have just
tionctl, and many others which‘ would"
deemed highly indelicete in other Iunds",
and however much the f0l‘L’lgn0.’l' ritighi at’
first be t-_-mptecl to doubt‘ their strict ' oforrectf
in-ss, he soon learns that" no 'cbrrre’fiti;i';t,al
rult-s oppose a barrier to‘ such acts. True
rrrodosty consists in the thought which gov-
erns every action; and viewed in this light:
there was certainly no immodesfy in the girls
of Ojo Culienlc indulging in a bath, even if
they did app:-ar ‘right before folks,‘ as the
philisophic Sam Slick would say. ‘
