I POETRY.
THE YELLOW LEAF.
Round flew the bowl, the laugh rose high,
W lieu suiiiiner’s richest canopy, _
The budded boughs of emerald dye,
IV as all our__s-liade.
So soft the air, so guy the plain,
Though August’s tiiooh was in her wane,
VVe said that summer's joyous reign,
W'ould never cease.
High rose the laugh, the transport swell,
\Vlieii sudden! potetit as a spell!
Detached by no rude zcpliyr, fell
‘ Oiieyellow leaf!
The mirth was hushed, the songster’s lays
Broke short, and back in solemn gaze
Hung on the leaf, nor dared to raise
‘ A tim’rous lay.
Each feared upon his neighbor‘s face.
His own sad iliotights -portrayed in trace,
As the pale emblem spoke the race
1' slimmer run:
, It seemed some fairy from the skies,
Had seen oitr idle transports rise,
And to unmask life's treaclieries,
The warner sent.
To tell us that the scene might glow,
,But soon would fade in cheerless show;
'I‘o tell us that our life might know
' 'An Autumn too.
MISCELLANY.‘
THE FAl'I‘I-II_’f‘UL SON.
“My tale is simple, and ofhuuiblebirth,
A tribute ufrespcct and real worth."
"You are ti o parsimonious,‘ said Mr.
V Dona to one of his clerks. as they wire to-
gether in the courilitig house one‘ morning
—'give me leave to say that you do t‘0l dress
sufficieritly genteel to appear as clerk in a
fashionable store.’ '
He-nry’s lace was suffused with a deep
blush, and a tear trembled on his ntanly
cheek. ' "
‘Did I not know that your salary wits suf-
ficii-_nt to pt'0Vl(It>. more genteel" habiliments,
continued Mr. Dan-i, I woiildincrease it.
‘My salary is sufficient, amply sufficient
sir, replied Henry, in a voice choked with
that proud independence of feeling which
poverty had not been able to divest him of.
His eriiployer noticed the agitation, and im-
mediately changed the subject.
Mr. Dunn was a man ot itnmense wealth
and ample benevolence; he was a widower
and had but one child. a daughter, who was
9 the pride of his declining years. She was
not as beautiful as an angel, or’ as perfect
as Venus . but the goodness, the innocence,
the intelltgenceof her mind shone in her
countenance, and you b d btit to become ac-
quainted with her to adtnire and love lief.
Such was Caroline Dana, when Henry
becuiite an inmate of her father's abode.
No wonder, then that he soon loved her’
with deep and devoted nfiection; and rea-dcr
hard you li'IN)tVfl hint you would not have
wondered that love was so soon returned, for
their souls were congenial; they were cast
in virtue-’s purest niould—and altaougb their
tongues never gave utterance to what they

.—in-‘I some who were lolly worthy of her ;
but she refused all their ovetttires with gen-
tle but decisive firuini-ss. Her father won-

employ. Mr. Dana knew nothing of this
fttmlly. but his strict integrity. his irreprcachf
able morals. his pleasing manners, all cont,
tier iiidtffcrence
spectableasany one. He had often wort-
lous regard to nealnt-ss, his clothes were al-
most threadbare. Mr. Danii did not think
this proceeded from a riiggardly disposition,
and be determined to breach the subject, and
ifpossible, ascertain the real cause. This
he did in the manner we have related.
Soon alter this conversation took place.
Mr. Dunn left home on business As he.-
was riding tbrougba beautiful village. he
siligbted at the door; of a cottage. and reques-
ted a drink. The Mistress, with an ease and
not always been the humble cottager. invited
him to walk in. He accepted her invitation.
and here a scene 0 poverty and neatness
presented itself. such as he had never before
witnessed. The ftirniture which consisted
of no more than ivfs absolutely necessary.
was so exquisitely l:lean that it gave charms
to poverty, and caslt an air ofcomfort all a-
round. A venerable looking old man, who
had not seemed to liiotice tlieientrance of Mr.
Dana, sat leiiningiion his stall; his clothes

Henry Whitman! exclaimed Mr. Dana
Why he is my clerk! I left. him at. my
house not. a fortnight since.
Here followed it succession of inquiries
which evinced an anxiety and a solicitude
that a mother alone can feel-—to all of which
Mr. Dina replied to her satisfaction. '
You know our Henry? said the old than

Flllrtl with this project, and determined it
possible, to iisce:tain tire true state of their

morning after-his arriv.-il home. Caroline

Well, Caroline, said Mr. Dana. Henry is
about to leave us, he is going to England in
the next packet, and will probably be absent

To be sure it is; but what is lltt't‘e so won-

But during a clear night. the surface of the

becomes so cold that the httiiiidity contained

ny in favor of the position that the Jews did

lNote.-—-It is true there is a proviso, that when a
Hebrew had served a Hebrew six years, he mi.-ht
by his voluntary choice, have his ear bored throtivh
and serve his master FOREVER. And althou nth °1;
has been asserted that his service expired ELI: the
Jubilee. Yet I consider that there is not EllSIl€1dOW'
of testimony for its support. The house “not re-
deemed within the space ofa full year,” was to be
“established forever to him that bought it ;” it was
not to “go out in the Jubilee.” In this case it- is
certain that the term forever, is not bounded by the
Jubilee. . And it is no less certain that the term for-
ever when applied to the servant referred to is not
betrayed him.
