BBgm' . Frora tho New Albany (la.) Gazelle Sons'. There it a blight for every floret . . ' That blooms upon tho earth, A hoist Of tear for every hour That man may fling to mirth. i The flow'rs may bloom another year Aa brightly aa before, But broken heart and feelings acre, May be resumed no more. Yon atara (hat glitter in ihe aky, Must pale before the day, Aa man'a aweet dream-like hope will -fly Along life's wteary way; . But those pale stars may beam as bright When night again returns, Bui withered hopes may never light The ahrine where tnem'ry bumsv The dark green lcarea of the ripe year, . Must fade at Autumn's breath, As love and friendship treasured her Must yield .to time and death. ; i; But spring will come in winter's place, And lcaf.clad ummi'r too ; -But from death's prey there comes no trace - Of love or friendship true. The minstrel winds, all music-fraught, Must die upon the ear. Like those sweet tone, of fondness caught From lips we hpl most dear. The winds may breathe their hymns again Mid earth's "glad carrollingi But ne'er upon tlie weary brain, - Will love's dead voices ring. And hope, and love, and friendship's art, And fccling'sSwitctrfug spells, Are creatures of the human heart. And garner in its cells. Then touch it lightly cist not o'er .y Its depths the shade of scorn ; T will wither with its hallowed store, Ii such cold looks are worn. " Gi'uo. For the Highland Messenger. '."...
