We doubt not that many 21 young man will see in
the following beautiful litres, a bright dream of his
‘own, ts; foncly hoped that atsonie future day he ntigltt
lmeet and possess himself of its living and breath-
- reality.
A CASTLE IN THE AIR.
I'll tell yoti, friend, what sort of wife,
\fVheii’er I scan this scene of life,
Inspires my waking schemes,
And when I sleep, with form so light,
Dutices before inc in sweet aerial dreams.
The rose its IJILISIIGS need not lend,
I\ot' yet the lily with thetn blend,
'1‘o captivate uiy eyes.
Give inc a check the heart obeys,
And sweetly ntutable, displays
Its feeling as they rise;
Features, where pensive, inrire than gay,
Save Nllell a rising siiiile doth play,
The sober thought you see;
Eyes that all soft and tender seem,
And kind afftictioiis round tlietn beam,
But most of all on uie.
A form, thotigh not of finest mould,
VVhere yet ti. something yeti behold
Uitconsciously doiti plea-re;
Manners all graceful without art,
Tliat to each took and word impart
A modesty and ease.
But still her air, her face, each charm,
Must speaka heart with fer.-ltiig wurni,
And mind inform the wlioie ;
\Vitli mind her niantliiig check must glow,
Her voice, her beaming eye niust show
An all inspiring soul.
Ah! could I such a being find,
And were her fate to iiitiie but joined
' By Hynieti’s silken tie,
To her myself, my all I’d give,
For her, alone (tr-iigltted live,
For her consent to die.
\Vhen’er by arixiutts gloom oppressed,
On the soft piliow of tier breast
My aching head I’d lay,
At her sweet. smile each care should cease,
I-fer kiss infuse a balmy peace
And drive my grtels away_.
In turn, I’d soften all her care,
liach thought, each wish, each feeling share;
Should sickness her invade,
My voice should soothe eaclt rising sigh,
My hand the cordial should supply ;
I’d watch beside her bed.
Should gathering clouds ottr sky deform,
My atrins should shield lter front the storm;
And, were its fury littrled,
My bosom to its bolts Pd bare,
In her defence utidtiunted dare
Defy the opposing world.
Together should our prayers ascend,
Trigetlier liutnbly would we blend,
To praise the Almighty name ;
And when I saw her kindling eye
Beam upwards to her native. sky,
My soul should catch the flame.
Thus nothing should our hearts divide
Brit on ottr years serenely glide,
And all to love be given;
And when lil'e’s little scene was o’er,
.W'e’d part to nteet and part nomore,
But live and love in heaven.

\Vliere the love of order reigns,
VVhere are neither cares nor pains,
\Vhe-re a warm affection glows,
I/Vhere the heart, its kindred knows,
W'here unite harmonious minds,
XVI-tere true love its partner finds,
VVhere the good shall be at ltotiie,
\Vhere uiisfortuites never come,
Tlicre is Heaven!
VVlien the toils of earth are o’er,
\Vhei1 we live to sin no more,
“Vhell the truth alone we speak,
\Vlien our neighbors‘ good we seek,
\Vheii front folly’s paths wetttrn,
W'hen old inaintnon’s bribes we sptirn,
VVhen our Maker's laws we love,
When no tttore frutn God, we rove,
Then ’tis Heaven!

MISCELLANY.
THE VALIANT SUITOR.
A T A L E.
“For at laggard in love, and a dastard in war.
VVas to wed the fair lillen of brave Lochinvar.‘
‘My dear father, you cannot, you surely
will not sacrifice me to this mutt, whom I
can never love-—who is not worthy of my
love! O;i! tre it..,he too late, It! riiy cnti'ea-
ties move you frorri this unhttppy purpose.’
This was the anxiouis prayer of a daugh-
ter to her father, on the which was (lt.’Sl.l[lt‘t.l
to see her finally contracted to a man whom
she disliked and despised. But she spoke
to obstinate ears. General Velthein had
been accustomed for rtiany years to t'Lt:t:-ive
unlimited obedience front thosefplaced under
hitn in the Austrian military service, and
though not a harsh parent, could not bear to
have his wishes thwarted even by an.
only daughter. ‘Do not provoke me, Au-
relia,’ said he, ‘ought I not to be the bestjudge
of what is for your real interest and happi-
ness ? And can I have any other objects at
heart in this match? Besides, I will not
takeiyour opinion of Baron Manthein as the
correct one. He was a soldier, and circum-
stances peruiitted him to see little actual ser-
vice; I am sure he is brave, and merits none
of the foolish reflections which you are prej-
udiced enough to throw out against him.
He is wealthy. too, and can place you in
situation befitting your birth and fznnily.
Finally. Aurelia, uiy word has been passed,
to liitn, and so t
the subject.’

B~-rtlia, and she advanced with great al.icri-

in her both curiosity and suspicion. To say
the truth, the girl and her l..dy wt--re not up-
on those terms on which young heroin»-s
and their personal attendants are usually
fourirl, at least in stories and romance-s. Ber-
tha had been introduced, by pretty libvral
douccrs. to take the sitfe of the father, and of
the lover favored by hint, in matrimo-
nial tnatters under agitation in the old
General’s family, and as a natural conse-
qtteti-tc, had lost her confidence of the oppo-
site §t‘ét_.rt_t". li'cr"o‘w.-i rtilstress " _

returned bringing with her the suitor coun-
tenanced by the General. As l'€g':ll‘(.lt‘(i’ more
looks, the Baron Mantheim could not have
been ntuch complained of, or objected to by
Aurelia. He was young and at least toler-
bly tvell favored. In attire and appearance
moreover, he was bold and martial, his rnotrs-
tache being oft-'ven more than national prom-
inence. After he had seated himself, and
requested to know what peculiar commands
the lady at that moment had to honor hirii
witb, Aurelia addressed ltitn somewhat ab-
ruptly. ‘You are aware sir, that your ad-
dresses have been always distasteful to me.
and that I have endured them only in obedi-
ence to my father's commands. They are
now more displeasing to me than ever. The
suitor scented bttt little discomposcd by this
S'tlUl.i1ll0n—\\'lilCl’1, indeed, communicattd
nothing new to him. ‘Let tne hope, mud-
am,’ said he in reply, ‘that time. and my’
anxious attentions. will remove this unfavor-
able feeling.’ ‘Time can do much sir,’ re-
turned the lady,"btit time can rnake.no alter-
ation in m_v sentiments toward you. I as-
sure you of this, and hope that the assurance
will mike you lorbear even yet, from press-
ing yoursuit on one who can neither be
happy;tvith you nor make you happy.’
‘Pardon me, lady.’ replied the geritletnan
assuming the appcrirance of great devotion,
‘it does rest with you, and you alone, to
make me happy; and you will excuse me if
I can not consent to forgo the prospects which
V01!‘ father's kindness and his promise hold
outta me.’
Aurelia looked down and after a pause
antwered, with a slight, apparent degree of
confusion: ‘Then. sir I tnust beg to inform
you——since you show so little forbeiiriincc or
generosity--that there may be others who
consider themselves entitled to it voice in
-this matter.‘ ‘Othersl’ cried the lover, star-
tled into prcceptihle loss of color, ‘what oth-
.ers catithere be entitled to interfere in the
matter? Come madam, you jest.’ ‘I do not
jr-st. answered Aurelia, with a tone of gravi-
ty which made'.an obvious impression on the
baron, in spite of his attempts to assume a
look of ease; ‘I do notjcst, sir. There are
other parties—there is one other party, at all
evr~nts—tvho may feel called upon to ques-
tion the right of your persevereance in this
suit against "my; fixed inclination.’ ‘Mad-
am, what other party can-this be Thjexclaimed
the baron. ‘you must allude to a lover; and
who can he be? What will yourfathcr say
to this, madam? But pshatv! there is no
such person. You btitjest madam.’ I do
not,’ said Aurelia__quietly but firmly; there is
such a person and at this m_oinent he is not
far distant from us.’ ‘Not fgirdistant !’ cried
~the'alarmed baron; ‘what do you mean lady?
‘I say that the person to whom I allude is
not far distatit.’ repeated the young lady, ‘and
a that before you quit this roorn an explanation
—? must take place between“you.’

Aurelia then led the way into the closet

swt l't(I the baron without que.-tionirig. ‘Al-

of battle; he was once my aid (le ramp.’-
‘Yrs, father. it was impossiblt:-that he should
be here,’ stid Aurelia", but his name was 9-
nough. The very naute of a brave man
was enough to extort from Baron M-.intheiiu’s
fears it resignation of my band l’ ‘But Ber-

General Valthein was tiitight. by the pre-
cceding eircurnst.-inces, that it would be
much safer to allow Aurelia to choose her
own partner forlifc. She soon found one
who never gave her father cause to repent
of his having indulged her with her own

comes the carriage or rather triurnphal car,
which bears the sovereign. It is very large

the floor facing the throne, upon which
were scaled the peers and princes of Eng-

In front of these thrones, with Albert on
tier left hand, Victoria stood. to read her

of Mrs. Sigouiney:
“In her fair hands she held
A scroll, and-with a clear and silv’ry tone
Of wondrous melorly, descanted free
Of foreign clinics, where Albioii’s ships had borne
Their tliunders, and of those who dwelt at peace
In latent anger murmuring notes ofwar,

To mediate between them, with a branch
Of olive in his paw.
