'Tivas a skull Once of ethereal spirit lull ; This narrow cell was Life's retreat. This space was Thought's mysterious scat. What beauteous visions tilled this spot, What dreams of pleasure, long forgot ! Nor hope, nor love, nor joy, nor fear, lias left one trace of record here. Iteneath the mouldering canopy (Mice shone the bright and busy eye; Hut start not ut the dismal void ? If social love that eye employed, ii wkii no low less tiro it glcamcil, liitt through tin; dews of kindness beamed, I That eye shali he forever bright When stars ami sun are sunk iu night. Within this hollow eavern hung The ready. swift ami tuneful tongue ; If falsehood's honey it ilis<laiue<l. Ami where it coubl not praise was chained, If bohl in virtue's cause it spoke, Vet gentle coneoril never broke. This silent tongue shall plead for thee When time unveils eternity. Say, iliil these fingers delve the initio ? Or with its envied rubies shine ? To hew the rock, or wear the gem, fan lidle now a'-ail to them. Pill if i lie f>n^o of Irolti ill ey nought, Or comfort to the mourner brought. These hands a richer meed shall claim Than all that wait on Wealth or Fame. Avails if, whether hare or shod, These feet the path of duty trod. If from the bowers of Fuse they lied, To seek Affliction s humble shed ; If Grandeur's guilty bribe they spurned, And home to Virtue's cot returned. These feet, with angel's wings shall vie And tread the palace of the sky. . m ? RAINY DAYS. The spring day rose from her sleeping In the deeo. dim caverns of mist. Willi tlie wailing world to bo keeping ller brief ami beautiful tryst : I bit lier sweet eyes opened weeping. As the sunshine her pale lids kissed, And thus she rose from her sleeping In the caverns of eastern mist. The world had dreamed of the meeting. From the first of the fartherest years ; llut her hand was cold to his greeting. And her cheeks were bitter with tears; II or voice was the wind repeating The pain of tlie heart that hears ; 1 >111 the world was glad of the meeting To the last of the lingering years. l'or forth from her tears came flowers, And out of her grief delight, And the buds swelled under the showers ; The blossoms, with sandals white, Climbed up to their forest bowers. From the broken seeds and night; Hut who could foretell the (lowers, Or sec in the grief delight. A GRAPHIC PICTURE OF THE EARTHQUAKE IN CHIOS. The London Timrs* correspondent at Chios, under date of the 7th inst.. telegraphs as follows : I have just arrived here from Constantinople and litul the picture of desolation such as is rarely witness d. 'l'he town looks as if it hail been terribly bombarded. Hundreds of houses are trars? lormctl into sli:i nl* niiitu, mnlor which lie buried an uukuwu number of victims. A majority of the remaing houses are already cra.'ked and rootless ami may fall at any moment. Nearly every building in towu has su lie red more or less. The inhabitants wander about anxious to search for missing relatives or lost property, but afraid to ri.-k their lives in the perilous work of clearing away the rubbish, and many who are willing to expose themselves to danger are prevented by friends or the police.? Fear, grief and despair are depleted <01 every face. Ail have some sad or tragic tale to toll. The first shock was (bit on Sunday afternoon at about half past 1 o'clock. J in mediately houses began to fall, wild shrieks were heard on every side and then followed an awful silence of some minutes. 'flic terrified survivors gradually ventured into the narrow lanes and reached the open spaces. Shortly afterward another terrible shock completed the demiditinn, then it re mained quiet until sunset when it again began to shako the island throughout as severely as before. All night shocks sue coedi;d each other at sli >rt intervals and each one was proceeded by dull sounds like subterranean explosions. Since that frequent shocks have been felt. A few minutes ago while writing the present dispatch 1 distinctly heard an explosion-like sound and felt the earth tr mble, but as I am under canvass I havc nothing to fear. An old tlenocse fortress containing about four hundred houses inhabited by .M ussulmans and Jews suffered more than the r st of the town. The ground there sunk about a half metre, and nearly all the houses were immediately destroyed and several hundred persons niu>t have perished. About thirty Mussulman women were assembled in one of the houses, not one of whom escaped. 'J lie southern part of the island is said to have suffeied more than this town. 'J'ho gnu vessel Hit t> i n arrived here this morning and the captain at once came ashore, and. after consulting with the (Joverin r of the island, organized relief parti'.s for tending the wounded and extricating the dead f rom 111 <- ruins, lie then went over to flicsmc and made careful iiu|iiiii"s regarding the state of' that town and the inhabitants. To morrow he intends visiting the southern part of the island, where I ss has been done f. rlliesul feivrs. I visited t'hesme ibis afternoon.? Only about ten inhabitants were killed, but many bouses are in ruins and very many more are dilapidated. The mayor assured mu tlint three-qualters of the bouses are in a dangerous condition. The inhabitants are afraid to live even in those which are uiiin jured, lor every night sine Sunday fr? .pient shocks have l>n lilt.

I t The President of the Convention, llcv. j | 11. 1). Smart, presiding, called on llev. A. . Coke Smith to speak on that subject. Mr. Smith made an admirable address. ( 11?? Mfiiil l)?*?t tlto poi-ilo to illo yolltll of to day were from three principal causes : 1. The spirit of speculation, which grew ^ j out of a desire to be rich ; and to this, he I said, every one was guilty of contributing | who helped to cultivate it disposition in society that would give undue respectability to wealth. | li. The unsettled state of political affairs, ' : which tempted men to sacrifice their priu j I eiplos to their ambition, j If Intemperance, which had its pit fall* j everywhere to drag young men do.vn to I dishonorable lives and drunkards' graves. I He exposed the fallacy of the argument that to legislate against bar rooms is class ' legislation, and said thai the sober people ! of the country have as much right to he ; protected by legislation as the intemperate people have. , lie urged as the great and only .-are saleguard against all these evils was the spread j of Christianity, and urged parents to labor to bring their sons to the Saviour, who alone could guide them safely through. Mr. Smith was followed by interesting | remarks IVoin Messrs. Kiikland and Palter- | son the same subject.? ('of. I'tyistcr.
