He shuddered, turned away Iiis face, and wept; Heaven pity them when strong men melt to tears! With neiselesB stop olofe to his side she crept, And softly sailed, as though she bad no fears. Great, bursting sobs convulsed the bending form; It seemed as though the sore-hurt hoart must break, So bruised and shaken was it by the storm, Whose rubless thirst his tears might never shake. Her smile Blow faded; loningly she gazed; A pearly tenr swam in her eye's deep blue: She touched her check to his, herself amaz ed,' But conquered, riB she whispered, '1 love you!'

The hero', standing upon the field of battle, amid the booming of cannon and the rattle uf musketry, is stricken down, and dying he utters some sentiment, which tells the-living ho fought bravely and died loving his country.

Ah ! he is waiting, and listening, for the last whisper. Ah sho ppeaks, her words echo ahd re echo through the chamber of his soul, and remain thore throughout the mystic future. As a young lady reads over the list oT the slain in battle, and hor weep*p.g eyea rest upon the name of her lover, almost her first thought is,"Did ho leave mo a dying message." The Bweet sister ?f a shipwrocked brother impatiently awaits the arrival of some oner rescued from tho wreck, to learn if her brother, as ho was swept beneath the dark waves, acut her a dying word.
