POEM BY MILTON.
The following sublime and affecting pr
duction was but lately discovered amon;; the
remains of 'our reat epic poet, and is pub
lished in the recent Oxford edition of Milton's
Works:
I am old arid blind !
Men point at me as smitten by God's frown:
Afflicted and deserted of my kind ;
Yet I am not cast down.
:. i- ; .
I am weak, yet strong;
I murmur not ! that 1 no longer see ;
Toor, old, and helpless, I the more belong,
Father Suprelnc '. to Thee.
' '
O. merciful One ! ;
When men are farthest then Thou art most'
near ; j
When friends pass by me, and my weakness
slum, j
Thy chariot I hear.
Thy glorious face
Is leaning toward me; and its holy 1 Vijl
Shines in upon my lontly. dwelling; place
And there is no more 'night.
On my bended knee
I re6ognize Thy purpose dearly shown ;
My vision Thmi has dimmed, that 1 may see
j Thyself -Thyself alone,
I "i
I have naught to fear :
This darkness is tlie shadow of Thy wing ;
Ueheath it 1 am almost sacred ; liere
Can come no evil thing.
1 - - - . ' ' '
C ! I seem to stand
Trembling, where foot of mortal ne'er hath
: . been, ' ' , '
Wrapp'd in fhe radiance of Thy sinless land
: ; Which pye hath never seen.
Visions come and go ;
Shapes of resplendent leautv round me throng;
I rom angel-hps I seem to heu- tile flow
Of soil and holy song.
Is it nothing now,
When heaven s opening on my sightless eyes?
hen airs from paradise refresh my brow
! The earth in darkness lies.
In a purer clime
My being fills with rapture waves of thought
lloll in upon my spirit strains sublime
; Break over nie unsought.
'..--. , ,i
Give me now my lyre !
I feel'the stirrings of a gift divine;
Within my bosom glows unearthly fire '
Lit by no skill of mine.
Extract from a letter explanatory of the
ibovc. Poem.
Letime correct the error into which vou
' with others, have been led. The "Poem" in
question was not written by Mtlton ; but by
a young Philadelphia (Juakercss. Elizabeth
L'.oydJ now Elizabeth Howell. Asa person
al lVieiid and acquaintance of the authoress.,
and kiiou iiitf .something of the history of this
poem, jl desire to make this correction and
place justice where it is due. And you, no
doubt.lwill be happy to aid in doing it, ami
thus secure to Aimricun female initiwt the'
credit which has been attributed to the "great
eolc poet" of England. And it is a credit to
the' real author, that she is uble to produce a
H. i i ....l ...:a. At:u.... . -i

of such characteristic power and beauty as to
deceive, the sagacious Oxford publishers.
W heti the poem wasiirst published in this
country, anonymously, it wandered to Eng-
nd and was readily : "discoversd" by the
.-harp eyes there. This was all the dhrorrvi
t Here was about . it. So completely- had the
American poetess pcrsniiiticd the voice of
'tlie old man eloijiient," that her poem' was
caught Hip and incorporated into a new edition
of Milton's works. So her voice now goes
ringing through the world with .that of tic
majestic and immortal old Bajrd. , Let them
si rig, on, together V
Itarey hadja tough time with a little
iron-srav horW in New York on Satur
daj. ; Instead-of his usual twenty min
utes vehi vhli 'ici, he was compelled to
tight more than an hour for victbrv.
Some twenty or thirty times did Rarcy
attempt to strap up his left fore-leg;
but th4 exceedingly potent objections
made by the-irbn-gray to his completing
the operation "vere vigorously c. ective.
After an hour and a quarter's continu
ance of the struggle, Itarey finally con
quered, having given, the audience the
tiuest exhibition of his power aud reso
lution. !.-.."
According to the statement of, the
Treasurer of the Massachusetts Anti
Slavery Society, theiri receipts for the
year amounted to over eleven thousand
dollars, .expenditures nearly ,ten thou
sand, mostly paid for lectures. It will
be ditlicnlt to tell what good has been
accomplished br such a use of this
money, other than maintain the lec
tures certain at is, we think, the pub
lic have derived no benefit from them,
says the Bunker Hill Aurora.
Ex-President Tyler -'is described as
bearing his great age w ith remarkable
grace, lie is the same slim, tall-looking,
high-bred Virginia geutleinan, his
striking features still showing a high
degree of mental, activity. He lias the
characteristic which Napoleon I con
sidered the man of -intellectual superi
brity a prominent nose. His eve js
keen and gentle, and reflects the ani
mal vio-or which is undiminished bv
aire.
Boswell complaied toj Johnson that
the noise of-: the company the dav
before had made his head ache. " No,
sir, it was the sense we put into it."
" Has sense that effect on the head P
" Yes, sir, on heads not used to it."'
"Wnv there are more women than
men is explained by T)u Quincey : " It
is in conformity w ith the arrangements
of nature; we always see more of heaven
than earth."

a writing table," literally covered with
loose papers and packets of the same,
sat the learned lawyer himselt. lie
was an elderly man. At length, lie put.
down his pen and a very lengthy legal
paper which he had been reading very
closely, and throwni; himself back in
his chair, gave a hearty yawn.
'Tm too old," he said, "much too
old, for an all-hights piece of work like
this."
lie seemed lost in deep thought,
and drummed the table with his fin
gers. "It's none of my business," he con
tinued, after a while, "but 'I must say
that my clients have caused me to draw
up a most unnatural, villainous will.
In these still hours of the night, 1 have

fairly overcome with weariness an

winch was supporting it, and roused
him.
"I'm sorry, very sorry, for his son
and daughter," he just muttered, with
his eyes still closed. "But Tin a law
yer, and ' business is ipiitc another
thing."
His head fell forward.
" "Old adage. - Cut oil shil-shilling."
In another instant, Jonathan Maus
ficld was sound asleep.
Yes, that will lying on the tabic was
a villainous document. Its bequests
were the triumph of malice over atfec
tioii. It was to be the death-bed act
of a father ' basely influenced against
two of his offspring.
Late in the afternoon of the day be
fore, Jonathan .Mansfield was about to
leave his office, when two gentlemen
entered, in haste. They were brotherSj
Andrew and William lietts, wealthy
citLzcns of the city, and his best clients.
They informed him that Mr. Robert
Westcott, their father-in-law, was ex
ceedingly iii, and that they had brought
the draft of a will which it was neces
sary should be drawn for him to exe
cute. A very slight examination of
! :the draft was Sllflicient to show the
lawyer that tlie wm was to be very
elaborate and intricate. He stated that
it would require considerable time to
pnT.ai
e the paper. '
"II
w many hours I demanded
Mr. Andrew Hetts. -
"Why, it ought to take days."
"We can g.vc you till eight this
evening. Between ourselves, there is
no time to lose." i
"I could not get it done."
"Say 12 o'clock. '
"Impossible ; too soon too soon."
"Daylight." . '
"The very earliest, gentlemen." I
"Well, be it so." 1
"vc win call tor you to go witn us
to Mr. Westcott's residence at daylight
tomorrow moriiing," said the other
brother, joining in the conversation.1
"Very well. By hard work all
night I can be ready at that time."
Jonathan Manstieid slumbered but
briefly. With the dawn came the
brothers. They were- shown to the
apartment. One of them seized the
will, and began its perusal, and the
other shook the sleeping lawyer by the
shoulder.
"Shil-shilling," said Mansfield,, half
asleep and confused. "Ah ! gentlemen.
Ready ready !"
He sprang to lib feet, shook .him
self, rubbed his eyes, and looked about
on the table for the paper.
"Here I have the will," said Mr.
Andrew Bettsf
"Ah!"
"Read it. Quick !"
. The' lawyer commenced, and hastily
read the document to the end, inter
rupted, at times, by the brothers, to
ask for explanations, or note" some
errors.
"There are some slight, but not im
portant errors," said Andrew, as tlie
reading was concluded.
"It must stand
as it is, &ail Wil
not a moment to
liam. "We have

lie nausea ncarine street door, to re
gain more composure, and then left the
house, lie was hardly out of mtIi'.
when a carriage drew up at the door.
1 The brothers and their lawyer stood
within the sick chamber. Two fe
males, the wives" of these brothers, were
administering to the wants of their
suffering father. The old "man, a hide
us spectacle of disease and approach
ing dissolution, was propped up with
pillows, and gasping for every biv:.th.
He was now raised and supported with
additional pillows, a little tin. re light
was admitted into the dim room, an 1
the brothers and their wives whipertd
encouragingly to him. Then the law
yer was beckoned to come near : the
sick man stared vacantly ; he motioned
for water, and his eyes would close, a
if in death.
"Be quick!'' whispered one of the
daughters.
"Hurry, Mr. Mansfield!" said Mr.
Andrew Belts.
The lawyer read rapidly. Aft" the
legal phraseology, all the intricate pro
visions of the bequests H the lengthy
and tedious details in a will di-poi!i
of a vat estate real and pcrnon.il
were repeated to this dying man.
Again they raised and propped him.
as he moaned and gasped. A Bib!
le w;
placed before him, and some person
tor witnesses called in. Then tiev
gave In ni some wine. He revived. ,"
"(Mick !" said one of the brothers. -'-"Now

In a brief space tlje will was sigtic 1.
The shriveled fingers received tln'.p ;.r.
and were half guided to $crawl, f "r the
lasfTtime, forever, the name of Ilobcr'
Witcott.
Itefore that day closed, his spirit had
fled.1
Of the four children of Robert AVest
cbtt, two had married to suit his f iin v,
and two had displeased him in this
respect. One of these latter w.i a
daughter, residing, at the time of h'w
.is.... l C....1. . i: ti -i
uuain, in oouia varouua. l ne oilier
was a son, living in New York.
had been rather wild, ha I a passion f.
music, and finally married an actress.
All of these were great oti'eu -es in tin
sight of his father, and he had 'been
virtually discarded. The affection
which seemed removed from tii.e
cliildren was bestowed upon vhe
.1...
da ighters and their husband. Mr.
Westcott had threatened to diiii.h-r',l
his two offending children ; but. late in
his last illness, it was discovered tn.it
he Lad made no will. The reader ha
been iufyrmed of the race with death"
undertaken by the sons-in-law, and oi
the execution of a will of their own
framing
Sure enough, when the vill came be
fore the surrogate, it was found that
almost the entire estate went to the
two daughters and their husbands.
1 he discarded son and daughter were
to receive only a paltry annuity.
The hope of these latter for ju.-t;. e
and their rights, was now in the law.
In that law, so slo , so "uncertain, s
expensive. Who would utniertake to
conduct a suit for them 1 Who, a-alnt
