' KINDNESS. '
There’s many a heart that long had kept
Its kindly feelings asa prize: .
With fellow-nieri had lauglied and wept
VVliile beamed affection in their eyes,-
Tbat when away they coldly turned,
And deetned it: love an idle cure,
Halli quenched tliefirst that for them burned,
And nursed to hate the rashes there!
I
The cherished hopes ofyonthful years-
Thejoys defined for coming time;
. The thrill ofswcet Afl'eetiuu’s fears,
That touchthe heart-—a soothing chime;
A wot-dttiikiiid. ti glance of scorn.
May wither when they fairest seem,
And bid the stricken spirit mourn,
The fading of u dream.
Thus Life hath oft been stripped ofsrniles,
And Death divested ofits gloom;
And Friendsliip lost its pleflsallt wiles,
And Man his tenderness eiitoinbed.
Then ne'er refuse. but aye receive
Love's offeriiig, and give thine own 3
A cold return may deeply grieve
A heart that beats for thee alone !

Frank was a g+~ntl+-man in every respect,
so far as regarded the outward titan Pol-
ished in his tiittnrters; of a prepossessing ap-
pearan"’ct-; and’nbo've all a man of wealth ;.
he was looked upon as worthy of the best
society; and rpany _a managing mother had.
tried to'instil irtto their daughter's mind the
idea that Frank Seymour would be an t-ligi I
ble lll'tlCIl for the fairest of the fair. l
But. while ll)e_\-' only looked at the exteri-l
or, they did not discern the sordid disposition’
which was crincealr-it by polished II:aIlnPI'S
and a hstntlsome address. For Frank wasl
rivaricious in the procuring of m'or'ir-y; knew‘
that this was sought ofter by all, and that thel
possession of wealth was in llS(‘Il re-spectabil-,
ity. For this purpose. were all his actions:
regulated; and for the acquisition of wealth
would he stuotp--beloiv the dignity of the
sphere in which he moved.
He had for some length of lime thought
that if no other means appeared to better his
condtion, he would unite hiurself to his
lovely cousin, Mary Seymour; the only
daughter of his uncle and guardian. Not
that he loved her; but he thought that by so
doing. he might at sortie future day become
the possessor of his uncles property, which
was considerable. ._ . _ "_
I-le doubt:-d not butthat he should be ac-
CPpl.t’d by Mary. In fact. he believed there
Wtl3 not a young lady in the city who would
refuse so good an offer as be considered
himself.
Judge then, of the surprise, when he was
infornii-d (on the morning hewas first,;_;-,iptro-
duced to the r» ader) of the marriage of‘-‘Mary
with Charles VVilson. At first he thought

CHAPTER ii.
Charles VVilson. as l have before stated.
was engaged MS a clerk in ii cotnmcicial
He was a young man of
fine talents, and universally rt-spected by all
that new hitti. He had seen and loved Mary
Seymour; she returned the afliciion; and
UI}iIl'It'S applied to her father for his consent
to their union. Her fattter influenced b_t-

Frank did not consider Ch-rles it fit match

Charles, disappoiriti-d in his fondest hopes.
had at length prevailed upon Mary to t-lope
with him—-bi.-lit-ving that her father, alter
they were married, would in it short time
target, and forgive them for the rash act.-
But [hey were to be disappointed; and Frank
was the instrument. ofthatdisappaititment.
When Col. Seyniotit‘ was app'rist-d by his
daughter's letter of what she had done, hr.-
sought Frank and asked his advice. 'l‘bis
Frank declined to give, until he could. 38 he

“To CHARLES VVu.soN:
"Sir, you have seduced from home and the path
of rectittide one of the best ofdaughters, my Mary.

I mourn: but the step is tttken- and. cannot be re-

Yes, I know what you mean: but hon.
are you to do this? I
Ill tell you, the old man thinks now. that
Charles is a villain, for [told him that he
was a gambler and a drunkard: and. now
what I want of you is, to get Charles into
sortie scrape that will injure his cliarricter "-
You are he-ad clerk there, and can do it well
enough.
ldt-n’t about that: Charles is Strictly
honest, and very correct in all his business
transactions.
What of that? Swear he has stolen the
mom-_v: or errtbezzled goods, or something
that will break hint down. ’
I would Frank, but-
But what?
But he is so careful.
Pooh! that's nothing, Nod. You must
do it some how: for Iswear l’ll,ruin hint if
I live. And if you can't assist me, why we
break friendship, that’s all.
And if I can do this, my note that you
hold will be cancelled will it?
Yes, and you shall have much more with
it, if you only succeed.
Well, said Ned, rising to depart. I'll do
my best for you: for ‘twill do no hurt to try
hint at any rate.
That's right Ned: do your best and re-
port progress to me, will you ?
And thus the plotters against an innocent
man parted for the night. In the mean time
the unconscious object of their villainous
schemes was t-njo_ving the happiness that is
ever to be found with a young and
loving wife, at the zlomestic fire side.

VISIT TO THE CATSKILL MOUN-
TAINS.
KAATSKILL, Feb. 22. 1844.
* * We arrived at the foot of the moon
tain about 3 l-2 I’. M. and now commenced
a long, winding and slow ascent. As we
proceeded we found the snow deepen to some
2 or 3 feet, but the path well beaten for a
mountain road.
* * Massive icicles hung from the rocks
and cliffs on every side. The noisey, bab-
bling brooks which in Summer time dash
through the deep ravines, were all locked up
and silent, their course. marked out only by
the pu re and bright lines of ice which were
occastonally seen through the opening in the
woods. As we advanced towards the top,
the trees and bushes became white as snow,
front the freezing of fog and vapor with
WHICII the uiountain top at this season is of-
ten covered. It seemed like riding through
b» tween walls of snow, so completely, .for
some distance, was every tree and shrub en-
crusted in this pure deposite from the wintry
clouds. We passed the Mountain House at
half past four o'clock, which is now deserted
except by a few individuals who remain there
during the winter season-it_loomed' up a-
mong the snow clad trees like ii winter pal-
ace indeed-—like ‘some banquet hall deser-
ted.’
We then came to the Lakes, of which
there are two on the top of the mouiitain.-
They are much visited in the summer sea-
son, wherc they find fine pickerel-fishing.
They stretch their smooth snowy surface a
long distance across. bounded on the oppo-
site side by a dense forest which extends a-
long sortie distance back from the shore;
then rise o'er hills, till the loftiest peaks
seem blended with the sky. "The forest
which skirts the path along which we pass-
ed looks old and broken. I-Inge trees which
have fallen by the hand of time laid crossing
each other in al_Ldirections; and often did I
fear while passing along the road,that some
tall towering old tree might come tumbling
down upon us —for they have a formidable
appearance. rising tip naked and bare, some-
times to the height of 150 feet. from which
the branches, from age and the weight of the
ice with which they are so often covered
breakand fall away-—leaving the naked
trunk alone in its giant strength to bullet the
rude tempestuous winds which sweep this
wild and dr_i-ary region. We now came to a
clearing of several acres in extent, on which
was erected two or three miserable looking
huts which seemed to partake Of the dreari-
uess of all around. Crossing this clearing
we again plunged into the forest, in which a
Jr-ath-like stillness seemed to rein. Follow-
lowing our path for about ten minutes, it
brought. us to it cluster of hemlocks. and n
ricketry old building, standing on the ‘brink
e gt-a'y
of what is called ‘The Kaaterskill Falls.’-—
