When the flowers of Friendship or Lore have
decay'd
In the heart that has trusted and once oeen
betrayed,
No sunshine of kindness their bloom can restore;
For the verdure offeeling will quicken no more.
Hope, cheated too often, when life's in its spring,
From the bosom that nursed it forever takes
wing:
And memory comes as its promises fade,
To brood o'er the havoc that passion has made.
As 'tie said that tha swallow ihe tenement
leaves
Where the ruin endangers her nest in the
eavtws
While the desolate owl takes her place on the
%all
And builds in the mansion that nods to it fall.

THE BLUE HOUSE.

VELVET CLIPPERS. ,
Denr l.ncle, the more I gnze on von " Blue i
House," the more impatient I Jim, to read a j
lUJtnuKciipt written many years ago, hy cousin I
Adelaide. Pauline, I well remember the sad
story of the Blue H >use, standing on the eminence
juwt beyond tlio old fort, \iin-ty Six. 1
will gratify you. Pauline, upon one condition
:?So bring that mahogany box in my sec
retary; near it, you will iind a casket, bring
it also. With this key you can open the box,
in"which, you will find n paper,? read it curefully,
for it is the sealed destiny of one very [
neju- to you, and will reveal much of the past
history of your family. Never interrogate me
again about the 44 Blue House"?this is the
condition. Melancholy broods over the name,
while the dark and foul deed, l?egHt of spleen,
aud brought forth in cowardice, makes a cold
tremor pass over me.
Pauline rejoiced in giving satiety to her curiosity,
as she unfolded the tale of the darkest
tragedy in the catalogue of crime. She
made out its scarcely legible contents, as fol- i
lows:
"Mydearest Cousin:?You have opened the
book of fate. Steel your beart and none it for
the worst
What a gloomy picture will the incidents of
this tragedy make. Willingly would I let the
* curtain fall and let oblivion with its besom
sweep it from my memory, did not justice to
you, woo me to sketch, though with a laiut pencil,
the most striking features of this sail tale
of woe, so intimately connected with your
mother's history. Grief and despond made up

when a dream of the distant point of the past
flitted across her mind, as she looked upon the
drear spot of yon Blue House, in which, a mauler's
blood streamed froin the assassin's knife.
. ? On a starlit nif>ht of May 17,
, was to be seen the lovely form of a fomale,
bending over the balcony of yon Blue
House. Darksome were Uie shades beneath
the majestic oaks, while the soft and silvery
niooubeanis anon peered through the floating
ocean of clouds, fluting across tho heavens in
massive waves.
The perfumod and beautiful mignonettes carpeted
the level parterre, while Uie zephyrs came
redolent with the rich arouna of forest flowers.
Ift a word, there was everything of earth and
heaven, that coold impart beauty and inspire
sentiment to the scenery. Anon, the lair lady
paused in her promem'de, as if imbibing the
*A -1* *1- -?as o/tnurinir Hiu u/ild

and romantic woodland. Perchance, her ear
caught the gentle rustle of a leaflet, as the
sound was winged upon the breeze, tliat caught
up the fragrance of the flowers. She stands,
now, wrapt in pensive melancholy, or in sentimental
reverie, as she gazes upon the gorgeous
drapery of heaven. In faith, she must have
seen the outlines of a figure stealthily passing
under the shadows of yon cluster of trees.?
"Tis heT ?hefaintly articulates. Yet, mystery 1
begins where this revelation ends. " Oh! if he
be seen. I confide in God ? the rebels, could
tbey unpiteonsly manacle the hands of youth,
or stifle the spirit of one so pure and loyal, in
this hour of peril. Heaven forefend." Who
could whisper such words ? The daughter of
a patriot, whose brawny arms struck many a
blow in defence of his country's rights and his
country's honor. Woman never boasted n more
graceful and lovely figure?never did an eye
beam with more spirituality in its deep blue
dye?a heaven-born lace moulded in the form
of beauty, with intellectuality enthroned in its
brilliant expression. Dark ringlets shaded the
roseate flush of her cheeks:?'Tis an image of
thy mother's beauty, with its classic outlines
as widely portrayed in your own face. She
was the admired Mle of Ninety-six. Wooed
by every beau, that could hope to win a smile.
Her fair hand was the charm of many ennuior?1

beautiful owner, Shod a passing tear to lier
memory, for she now lies entombed with the
dead. Bianca, for that wiis her name, paused
for moments watchisg the graceful step of a
man gliding from the sombre shades beneath
tiie dense foliage, to the open plot illumined by
the moonlight. A handkerchief, bending from
u staff to the breeze, its lily folds, was omiuoos.
Bianca read its import. Quickly retreating,
with the low and soft notes of a tune upon her
lips, which scarcely hud died away on the " desert
air," before slie was saluted by a graceful
bow from the young loyalist Few words, in
whispers, were interchanged, which the silent
woods reposed in secrecy. Ah! love is a faithful
sentinel. '1 his occurrence would still be a
mystery, had not future events given us a clue
to interpret its meaning.
A moment was u crisis of hope, for upon the
safe return ot the loyalist depended the fate of
one dearest to Bianca. Her love bad just been

British officer, an ardent and attached loyalist,
whose commanding and graceful figure sot off
with an epaulette, had attracted the admiration
of Bianca, who received in return the full devotion
of a youthful lover. She met this officer
hy fortuitous circumstances, which introduced
them to each other at a dining party of a
near relative, allied to the British cause. It is
just to say of that enamored youth that, he possessed
every accomplishment that could refine
his manner, or elevate his feelings. A youth,
hy his gallant conduct, M more full of glory,
than of years." He Joved with a passion as
" chaste as the icicle that hangs on Dian's temple."
He breathed to Bianca tender sentiments
of love. She gave a listening ear to his tale.
He wooed ?she loved?and thus this princess
of beauty was wedded to the prince of loyalty,
" -* * J i - 4.1
who was then ngmitig against a niuierhiiu oromer
of liianc u What is woman ! What is
lovet? what will it not sacrifice? I leave the
enigma for your solution.
'I'llis liiitisli officer was now garrisoned in
the fort. 1H>, then under Col. Cruger. The
stranger wo mentioned, received the news from
Bianca of Lord Rawdon's approach with reinforcements
to relieve Cruger. Bianca had,
that evening, apprized the garrison that, she
was in receipt of important intelligence. The
young loyalist became the bearer of the glad
tidings of Rawdon's approach, and quickly
mounting his st< ed, fastened to u woodbine
hard by, and under the fires of the sentinels,
dashing successfully, and at full speed hy the
pickets, he was admitted with hurrahs into the
garrison. History has. long since, chronicled
the desperate change of the ^forlorn hope," led
on to death by Lieuts. Down! and Seidell, when
the discharged cannon gave the signal for this
noble band to make the onset and effect the
breach?and under the blaze of artillery they
rushed to meet the bayonets and picketc that
bristled above the parapets. Alas! this des
perate charge only signalized itsell, hy tlie Uis- |
play of the most brilliant act of heroism thatglory
couhi claim or patriotism inspire. With this
i ivoluntary digression, we will hasten our story,
which has a momriU more mournful and
melancholy, than the event of that forlorn hope.
Ciugor speedily evacuated 'UC. And soon
the dearest idol ol Bianca's first love was summoned
to impress a farewell kiss ujmn her woebegone
cheek, already bathed in tears, by the
sad fate of a brother of the " forlorn hope."?
The olHcer lingered long in bidding adieu ?
but time and duty soon broke the sj*ell that
wooed a moments stay.
In the North-West room of yon Blue House
looking towards the fort, was the chamber of
Bianea, iti which, she poured forth tears of
grief. Yes, oft has she shed a hitter, burning
tear, as she gazed upon the deserted fort?the
monument of woman's frailty?the record of
woman's devotion to a lover, even at the sacrifice
of a brother.
In fancy, now, I see that face like Niobe, all
bathed in tears?with grief and despair mantling
the wan check, where once the lily and
rose blended, to make the carnation more beautiful.
A man with the frost of years upon his head,
returns to the smiles of home. The dim fire
of her eye brightened anew, the wonted crimson
again bluaiied upon her cheek, as she embraced
a lather fresh from the glories of war.
Hut along witli him conies the news of a lover's
death, which once more enthroned sorrow in
her broken heart. Yet, a sadder tale lingers
tm our pen. The cause?'tis Jove turned to
lotto. Another loved, and too with a jealous

that poisoned the purity of love nnd changed
the original type into malignant hate.
The burning taper in that North-West room
betokens the wakeful vigils of Biancn, upon
whose cheek, the rose has thrice withered, and
the wool ol life fast unwinding from the distafF
of destiny. For in this evil hour, had you but
looked, you would have seen an Indian crossing
that sinuous path leading to Cambridge.
Foul treachery is abroad, you may be sure.
That wily Indian punts for blood; nor to avenge
himself or his race, does he bear the
deadly knife. The fiend was once a lover,
whose love has turned to hate?whoso hate is
murder. He pandered to a heart poisoned
with the venom of spleen?yet as a coward he
dared not do that which his heart would rejoice
in having done. The faint light is gone?nature
seems embosomed in repose?nothing it
heard hut the dull chirp of the cicada that evei
serenades the listless woods. 'Hie night is serenely

" sesame " of the midnight assassin. Thelieart 1
proclaims its mandate to the steady hand. He
enters the chamber of virtue and innocence?
the hand is uplifted? it falls?a faint scream?
a corpse. In the spotless arms of that expiring
woman, was a beautiful babe, too young to bemoan
the cruel and unhappy faU* ot its mother.
The Indian fled with a conscience crying
"murder,"in every step. He never more was
seen. The murder was soon noised abroad,
but the trace of the assassin remained a mystery.
Years afterwards, the dying declaration
of a man full ot remorse and guilt, told the sad
tale, hy confessing all the circumstances of the
crime.
