The matin bells are pealing, From to vv'r and turret grey ; And fairy step are stealing O'er beds of breathing bloom, away. Awake from golden slumbera, VHiat claim thee, Love, from me ; Let Music's softest numbers ' Unlock the spell that hanga o'er thee. . Oh ! fly With me, o'er land and sea, Where may rove, and hearts may love Where Jostling sweet, 'mid boughs that meet Of tangfevine, or eglantine, -Our cot shall rise 'neath roseate skies, Wjiere Love, un watched, may breathe her sighs. Vly gallant bark is lyjng Beneath thy lattice, dear ; iAnd spicy gales are sighing, To wall thee to Love's rosy sphere TcTes freedom on the billow, And musiq in the wind ! Then, Ellenf, quit thy pillow, Those silken braids of jet to bind And fly with me, o'er land and sea My long denied, my plighted bride : In myrtle shades, and mystic glades. Where Tasso roved, and Petrarch loved ; "We'll wing away the golden day Oh! fly with me away! away! A PERFECT WIFE. One of the finest pictures of female charac- tcrwe ever met with, is that given by Ed - mund Burke ofrus own wife. The charming daughter of Doct. Nugent was indeed worthy of the, greatest orator of modern times, if we are to take the husband's own account of this admirable woman. The description reminds v it 0 - rv-i a i tc? nvnni c J o linao rv ante r rttkin dan's first wife; whom an English bishopeu logised as 'the connecting link between women and angels.' Burk Portrait of his lady is thus intro duced by Prior, in his life of that statesman, ' Added to affectionate admiration of his tal ents, Mrs Burke possessed accomplishments, good sense, goodness of heart, and a sweetness of manners and disposition, which served to allay many of the anxieties of his future career, the labours to attain fame and independence, the fretful moments attendant on severe study, the; irritations produced by party and political zeal, and the tempestuous passions engender ed by constant contention in active parliamen tary life. He repeatedly declared that ' every care vanished the moment he entered under liis own roof." He wrote the following beau tiful discriptive paper the idea of a perfect wife: which he presente'(j to her one .morning on the anniversary of their marriage, delicately tiead of j o j ; ing tfie paper thus : " The character -," leaving her to fill up the blank. It is as follows. " THE CHARACTER OF -"Iintend to give my idea of a woman : if it at all answers any original, I shall be pleased; -for if such .a person as I would describe real ty exists, sle must be far superior to my dis cription ; arid such as I must love too well to be ablcto pain! as I ought. "She is handsome, but it is a beauty not ari- sing from features, from complexion," or from ! shape ; she has all three in an high degree, but ; it is not by these she touches the heart ; it is all that sweeti ess of temper, benevolence, in nocence, and sensibility which a face can ex 4rcss, that forms beauty. She has a face4hat just raises your atten- lion at first sightit ffrows on you every ment; and you wonder it did -do no more than raise your attention: at first. " Her eyes have a mild light, but they awe .vou when she pleases; they command like a good man out of office, notby authority, but by virtue. " Her features are not perfectly regular ; that sort of exactness is more to be praised than to be loved for it is never animated. "Her stature is not tall; she is made to be - . - i "She has all the tirmness that does not ex- elude delicacy; she has all the softness that does not imjly weakness. " There- olten more of the coquette shown in an affected plainness than in a tawdry fine- ness. She is always clean without preciseness or affectation. Her gravity is a gentle thought fulness, that softens the features without dis composing them ; she is usually grave. " Her smiles are inexpressible. "Her voice is a low, soft musie, not formed to rule in public assemblies, but to charm those who can distinguish a company from a crowd; it has this advantage, vou must conie close to her to hear it. I "To describe her bodydescribes her mind: onels the transcript of the other. Her under- standinsr is not shown in the variety of matters it exerts itself on, but in the goodness of the choice she makes. " She! does not display it so much in saying or doing striking things, as in avoiding such us sne ought not to ao. t J f She discovers "the- right and wfrong of i. a v t . i tiunsfs not bv reasoning, but saeracitv ; most .

From the New York American. The English House of Commons is some times characterised as an assembly of "the first gentlemen in Europe." As it is now quite the vogue among British travellers to criticise the manners and morals with which a three months' glimpse of the United States renders them quite familiar, it may save our citizens from pining under thesenseof beingmoreunmanner- ly or more immoral than their caricaturists, to show up some pictures of England by English artists. We gave not long ago, as a specimen of the morality of some of the higher classes, an extract from the London Quarterly on the subject of betting at the Newmarket races. We now, in the way of manner, copy a par -I . . 1 . ri f r ugrapn auoiii me nouse oi commons, it is from a late London Spectator. ! "No assembly of decent mechanics in the country would be guilty of the indecorums which are constantly committed in the House of Commons. The decencies of civilized so ciety appear to be totally disregarded there. A few nightsago, one of our grave legislators amused his brother members by "crowing like a cock ;" and there was a regular chorus of scraping, hissing, and shouting, when Mr. Poulett Scrope rose to speak upon a financial subject which he understood, though his audi ence did not. Colonel Davies might well say that he was ashamed of the behaviour of the House. Sir Robert Peel himself acknowledged that there was "a great deal of talking, incessant buzz,- coughing, and verv ungraceful attitudes" among the "master spirits of the age," as he sneeringly denomina ted the members of the first Reformed Parlia ment. Mr. Warburton declared, that "he was never in the House two hours without under going bodily torture. " Dazzling Argument.

Projects of Weksmet AH, Viceroy of Egypt. Egypt, the cradle of the sciences and the arts, is emerging from a long nigh tof Cimmerian darkness. Mehetnet Ali, now the independent Sovereign of Egypt and Syria, and some of the Grecian Islands, is resolved to regenerate mose countries. He tias lounded colleges, created manufactories, introduced the arts of Europe, and -ent young Egyptians to England, ' France and Germany, to be educated. He pro- , poses to augment his navy to 20 ships of the mo-'line; to make a good road between Cairo and Alexandria; a canal from Suez to the Nile, to transport all his minutartures to Syria, and encourage agriculture alone inKEgvpt. He proposes to open a communication between i the Orontes, urhich empties itself into the j Mediterranean, and the Euphrates, which falls into the Persian Gulf, and to drain the marshes of Alexandretta. He intends to make thecitv of Candia, in the island of that name, a free port, and to establish in Judea a naval arsenal s i i a w r- voyage to Candia and oyria, to personally ex amine the state of those countries. The con suls of England and France are to accompany him, each in a frigate of his own nation. Journal of Smyrna. The "Somerset.
