Mine, than, shall be the task to portray them, and mine own, the lores thai form the subject of this great effort. J was a remarkably enterprising boy, and mad out to work myself, at the age of twelre, into a huge passion for a very demure little infant, who had numbered about as many years. But aa my heart was first caught by a ckinchalla hat, and my affections were withdrawn from their object on ac count of a conceived slight from her, in laying "acorn," I will pass from this, "my first lore," with the single remark, that at this early period I formed an attachment for moonlight nights, and learned several fines of Moore's, When at ere thoa rarest. By the etar thou lor est," &c. Several flames of a similar character, in the course of the three or four following years, biased op in my susceptible bosom, burned brilliantly for short period flickered and went out The next great epoch in the his tory of my affections, was my sixteenth fear. 1 hare before me (only in imagination, scar reader I) a face that utterly fames my skill ia portraiture. I might say that it was sweet that it was beautiful angelic utrllectual ; I might use a thousand such generally descriptive terms, but I should convey no idea of the young girl my memo ry bas conjured up, and who sits smiling be. fore roe, as if in mockery of my vain efforts. What tball I do ? Shall I commence an in rentori of her charms, classify and combine them, add beauty to beauty, grace to grace, perfection to perfection, until I have work ed np the protrait into loveliness equal to the original? Or shall 1 try comparisons and siniles, and descr.be her in a rhetorical fig an! I like the latter idea bent. It is soonest accomplished, and will display the brilliancy af ay fancy. Flowers, it is said, are the language of love 1 will make them the vehicle of my description of a lovely woman. There is something in their light, delicate aod transient beauty, so like her of whom I write, and withal, so like her love for m, that they are admirably to my present pur pose. Once more, then, let me address myself to thee, dear reader, and ask thee if thoa hast ever seen a. xoater-lily a young, tall, slender, graceful water-lily ? If thou est, thoa hsst seen something as young, perhaps half as tall, and probably even more lander ; but certainly not half as graceful aa Helen G., when in ber fifteenth year. After all, I do not think water-lilies are perfectly adapted to the description of fe male beauty. They answer well enough ai long as we confine our observations to the figure, face, complexion, St?., and axe even useful when for instance : writing about eyes, as, 'Her floating eyes oh I they resemble Bine water lilies, when ibe breeze It making the stream around them tremble," Bat when we come to the expression of the countenance, water-lilies, and all other flow. er., are dead letters. There are a thousand beauties which they have no language to convey. Since writing the above quotation, it has occurred to me that a poetical would be better even than a flowery description of my Helen. There it something in the very softness of poetry, its refinement, its elevation, its en thusiasm, so congenial with the female char acterso allied to" feminine loveliness, that it is singular the idea should not have en. tered mv oerieraninm before. But. alaa i T ue an attorney, and there is a manifest in eongruity between poetry and law. But if I eanoot vrite, I can juofe it ; and, with a proper admixture of poetical quotations and prose writing, I think I shall be able to con ey to the reader some idea of one who ex r: sed a controlling influence over my early fery early life. ' When 1 first knew Helen C, she waa not ifteen, half-woman, balf-cbild uniting the fight-hearted gaiety and playfulness of the ae, with the intelligence and accomplish stents of the other.

We met'twas in a crowd," at a large pariv. She was a ni. daihintr fashionable woman, surrounded bv admirer. anci aaiierers, to whom she was dispensing. with wonderful ease and grace,! he word?, and nods, and smiles, without which they could not exist. 1 think I observed a slight flui. tering in her manner as I approached. 1 think Ihe hue of her cheek was a little less brilliant, and that her voice was a little tre mulous, as she answered mv congratulations on her arrival at . But it mn.i h. been fancy, for the last word of her reolv bad hardly died upon her lips, before she wasTigaged in a spirited conversation with a gentleman standing near her. One mo ment convinced me that the school-girl's love was forgotten. The demon of fashion bad taken possession of the heart 1 had for years foolishly thought mine, and the love of admiration had distorted a sweet, unaffec ted girl into a coquette. From the time I made this discovery, I gave up all hope of further experience of Ihe "grand passion." and determined, inasmuch cs a wife aDoear- ed indispensable to my reputable standing in society, to make what is called 4 a nru dent marriage" that is, to niarry"a woman who had, what 1 had not, plenty of this wolrd'sgear. Hereafter," I exclaimed, tlic shaft of Cupid must be gilded lo pierce me. It is impossible for me to conceive a passion for merit and beauty alone. I would as soon think of coveting an empty coffer, as falling in lote with a girl without the ne cessary attach of fortune. Yc3 my "Tender sigh aid trickling tear. Long for a thousand pounds a year," not for the requisites of love in a cottage; for the money itself not for assistance in hastening ihe departure of my, riwn few straggling farthings. Unfortunately for my loatriutonial prospects, the wnriulh of my new determination carried me into extremes, and instead of selecting for my future part ner in life a moderately ugly woman, with a moderately large fortune, I opened my batteries upon a positive fright, with an estate larger than the united domains of a score of German princes. Alas I she was the child of misfortune, and tny hr art was. from the first, drawn towards her by the ho- y and blessed svmpathv we feel for those on whom the hand of affliction presses. She had been bereaved of a fa1 her, who, I pre sume was,affectionale, and deserving of her ove, and was the only child of her mother, and she (to wit, her mother) was a widow a rich widow very rich by her dower out of the estate, of which her daughter was the beircfS. Poor girl ! was she not to be pitied? It was an afternoon in June. I was most romantically taking s sociable cup of tea with my proposed spouse, under an old oik, at her country eat on tbe river 1 was drafting a declaration af my feelings, and bad, with greater care, iramed one, townicn I thought she could not possibly demur; when, on raising my eyes Iroin the green turf, to open my suit, my attention was ar rested by the surpassing beauty of the view before me. lam not an enthusiastic admi rer of scenery of any deacription, and, with the exception of that dear little animate pro duction, tbe fairest of a 1, the worka ol na. ture are unheeded by me, r passed with an acknowledgment merely, not a feeling that they are beautiful and glorious. But when I looked upon tbe noble river before me, indinff its mighty way througti a ncn anu blooming country, decked with islands, and bordered with green ; and above all, when the setting sun, collecting, as it were, an his glorr in a dying effort, threw his golden light over the scene, giving his own hue to tbe sails, which here and there were spread to receive tbe faint breath of expiring day, and increasing tbe splendor of the distant view, I felt for once, that the works 01 na ture were beautiful ; and that this world, notwithstanding the impassioned assertions of tbe interesting young admirers of Byron, who, with banging head, bare throats, ana black neckerchiefs, bewail their blighted hopes, and rail against their lot in having been created mortals, waa one in which I might content myself to live to live, and live happy hoppy, even without the assis tanceof my co-tea-drinker. I gave ap the idea of a prudent marriagt, and my affections were once mure afloat. - But love had become a disease with me. Like the stim ulant of the opium-eater, or the potations of the mnfirmiul drunkard, ita excitement became es sential to ray existence. My next flame had but one fault, wbirbonfortanately, I did not discov er until my affections became almost irrecovera bly fixed upon her. She was the most brilliantly beaulifol girl I ever beheld. In form, feature and comnleTlon." she was unequalled ; and tbe daxzling brightness of ber eyes, the fine classic trneinra of her head. asMl the air or easy arrare which pervaded all ber movements, made her I attractive in the highest degree.

The ruder storms rage not over it sun and cloud still, in their turn, light and darken iis horizon, and the coining breeze is not ungrateful ; for, while it changes iis hue, it gives variety and freshness to its form. The pleasures of the domestic cir cle and the endearmcnia of reciprocated love. it is true, are denied me, bjit my heart has found other objects to which it has attached itself, and the tenderness that, prodigal like, I would have lavished upon one, now finds an outpouring in benevolence to niv fellow creatures.

New York, Feb. 5, 1849. Mr Barry I have no hesitation in recommending an article which I can, of my own personal knowl edge, endorse as good ; snd I therefore state with confidence, that your Tricopberous.is what you claim it to be an article for cleansing, preserving, beauti fying and promoting the growth of the hair. ' I find it to be the best remedy I have ever had in my practice for scald head, ring-worm, aud diseases which the skia is subject to. T.A.LEE.M.D. The following testimonial is from Mr. Munn, ed itor of the Scientific American. Comment on such evidence ia unnecessary. New York, Feb. 24, 1849. Barry's Tricopherous is aa article that we take pleasure in awarding the highest commendations. We do not do it upon the recommendation, of oth ers, but from our own personal knowledge of its ef fects upon the hair ; while it tends to keep it healthy soft and glossy, it also removes danrnff,prevents grey bair and invigorates its growth in a manner unequal led by any other composition known to us, A per son only needs to use one bottle to be convinced of this truth.
