F\$ wtv% SONG. BY THOMAS MOORE, E^?Q. IThen roKl in the earth lies the friend thou hast loved, Be fits faults and hi? follies forgot by thee then ; Or. if from their slumber ihe veil he removed-, Weep o'er them in silence, and close it again. And oh! if'(is pain to remember now far From the pathways of light he was tempted to roam, J$e it bliss to remember that thou wert the star That arose On lu> darit n'ess, and guided him home. From thee arTJ thy innocent beauty <ir«t came Tne revealings that taught hi in true love to a- dore— To feel the bright presence, and turn him with shame From ihe idols he darkly had knelt te before. O'er the waves of a life, long benighted and wild. Thou catn'st like a soft golden calm o'er the sea; And if happiness purely and glowingly smiled On bis evening ho.izon, the light was from thee. - And though sometimes the shades of past folly would rise, And though falsehood again would allure him to :>tray, lie but turrfd 10 ihe glory that dwelt iu these eyes, And the lolly, the falsehood, soon vanished a- way/ As the priests of the sun, when their altar grew dim, - At the day-beam alone con Id its lustre repair. So, if virtue a moment grew languid in him, He but flew to thai siaile, and rekindled it there. •f Providence, that the greatest rivers wert always seen tn flow past the most populous towns. A few years a^o, a traveller in France met with a p dure representing heaven, where the angels were kneeling on cush¬ ions, on which the arms of France were erabroideredo ■ EPIGRAM, On Mr. Day, a remarkable tall man, marrying Miss Kui^ht, who was rath¬ er short.

Whon courting your raish-ess, nev- er miscall hei by the name of angel or g ddess,lest she mistake it tor trutli, and forget that she is a woman. I. When putting the question, (as it is termed) he carpful not to allow her to suppose that your happiness, or even com¬ fort, depends on her assent: recollect that you are making a proposal, not beg¬ ging A boon. 3. Teach her beforehand, that the marriage ceremony is not a mere matter of form ; and explain fully the meaning of the word obey. 4. Be careful, at church, that she re¬ peats every word distinctly after the cler¬ gyman, that she may afterwards have no excuse for acting in opposition. 5. When you take her home, tell her fhat she is to command your servants Jbut that you ar^ to command her. C. Be notimperious, but decided, and always -peak as if it were a matter of course to be obeyed. 7. Be not backward to blame, lest she \ attribute it to fear ; if once she knows that you arc afraid of her, your authori¬ ty is at an end, and ycu become a poor, degraded, dependent, miserable crea¬ ture. 8. If pleasure or business take von from home, expectcheerful looks en your rotors ; the surest way to secure them isp gvethern. 9. If she be of an obstinate or sulky temper, do not proceed to extremities", ftest you fail, but show her that t ou do net - • j '*. mind st. 10. If she be passionate and violent, be vou cool and collected in proportion : if she irritates you, she ha mounted one step < f her throne, and you descended one step of yours. II. If she be fond of reading, let her tiave no novels : if she must read, sive he the memoirs of Roman wives and inatTOUS : if she prefer light reading put before her the works oi the lathers of the church. 12. Be careful that she does not think too well of herself in poii.t pf learning, lest she should soon fancy herself your superior.. , . 13. If she be witty, teach her that the Dest mode of showing it is to conceal it. 1 i. If.you take her to places of pub¬ lic amusement, make her know that it i^ the reward of, and uot a bribe to, iiood conduct. 15. Lei her be as little as possible a- lone : if a man, according to the philos- ruher, is not to be trusted by himself, * • Ought we to have more confidence in a woman ? 16. Finally, lore her ; but d.o not shew it too much, le-t she takeiulvantage of it: a*, a!! wives (iesire power, it should fee tne business of all husbands to ure- AGRICULTUItAL.
