Solected Poetry. LOVU AT FIRST SIGHT. .I. The racing river leaped and sang Full blithely in the perfect weather, All round the mountain ecohoes ring, For blue and green were glad together. II. This rained out light from every part, And that with songs of joy was thrilling ; But, in the hollow ofmy heart, There ached a place that wanted filling. III. Before the road and river meet, And stepping-stones are wet and glisten, I heard a sound of laughter sweet, And paused to like it, and to listen, Iv. I heard the chanting waters flow, The cushat's note, the bee's low hum. ming, Then turned the hedge, and did not know-= How could I --that, my tiwe was coming. V. A girl upon the highest stone, Half doubtful of the deed, wiat atandbig ; 8o far the shallow flood bad flown Beyond the 'customed leap of landing. vr. tShe knew not any need of me, Yet me she waited all upweeting; 1 e thought not I had crossed the sea, And half the sphere to give her meeting. VII. I waded out, her eyes'i mot, I wished the mojuents had been hours ; I took her in my arms, and set. Her dainty foot among the flowers. VIII. P1er fellow maids in copse and lane, Ah I still, methinks, 1 hoar them calling ; The wind's soft whisper in the plain, The oushat's coon, the water falling. Ix. But now it is a year ago, But now possession crowns endeavour ; I took her in my heart, to grow And All the hollow place forever. (n l'reas by Roberts .rothera. (From the Banner of the South ] A MEMORY. BY Mo0NA. (ne bright memory shines like a star In the sky of my spirit forever ; And over my pathway it .tlashes afar A radiance that perishes never. One bright memory-only one ; And I walk by the light of its gleaming; It brightens my days-and when days are done It shines in the Night o'er my dreaming. One bright memory-whose golden rays Illumine the gloom of my sorrows, And I know that its lustre will gladden my gaze In the shadows of all my to-tmorrows. One bright memory-when I am sad I lift up eyes to its shiting, And the clouds pass away ; and my spirit grows glad; And my heart hushes all its repining. One bright memory-an have passed Back into the shadows forever ; But it, far and fair, bright and true to the last, Sheds a light that will pass away never, Shine on-shine always-Thou star of my days, And when Death's starless Night gathers o'er me, Dean brighter than over adown on my gaze And light the (lark valley before me. Augusta, June 6th. (From the Newv York Citizen.) Brady's Seven Wise Men, WVe are indebted to Mr. Brady, wh~ose photographic gallery is at the corner of Broadway and tenth street, for a deep. ly interesting historical picture--that of the seven Congressional Managers of Impeachment, Butler, Wilson, Stevens. Boutwell, WVilliams, Logan and Bina ham. Ieor fame or infatmy, the nll but living lineamenite and expiressions of t'eso "seven wise men of Con~gren" are here indelibly portriyed, and may be multiplied ad infiniftur. Here is'Ge.n. Logan, wvith one hand thrust in thet breast of his coat, and his wholo body posed ini a strikinig attittude. HeI is th. only handsome man of the Impeacher - his swarthy cornplex ion, large black eyes, bltie-black hair, regular feia:ture., and enormous dark-brown moustachie giving him an appearance half Spaiel and half -Indcian, very p'rplexing t< those who know him as of irish blood, antd with several of his elder brothers acttually born in t~he Green Isle. But ler sits in an attitude not exactly ag. gressive, but prepared for initant resist ance liii great forehead shows more brain than could be aggregated from the cramiums of all his remaining associates; and his face, by its lines of power, gives evider,ce of that natural imell'ctal su premacy which has given him the most prominent part in this impeachment trial notwithstanding the hos'.ility of his com. ra'des, and Binghamn's previous public oath on the floor of Congress, that he'd be d--d if he'd serve under Ben. But. her. Stevens looks very mutch the old anarch lie ia--his wel-oihed brown wig, crowming a ghpstly face, in which hifi appears to be kept wanrm wit hin the yel. lowv and shrnnken skin, by the fires of partisan malienity, and all the evil pas, sions of a powerful and perverted natulre. Seated as ho is, the deformity of his ler is not noticeable ; and his long wrinukl'd fingers rest on the head ot his cane with the claw grasp of a (lying vultutre Bingham has an intelligent, and rathe genitletmanly face, appnarinig ill at case, and to have dolcaqy enough to feel ashamed of his position. Wilson, of Iota, has strong~ and decisive featuires grey hair, 4 dark goatee, surreptitiou eyes ileeply set and placed too close to gether, large ears,. mouth strong and coarse, cocked nose, and heavy chianel under his cheek and around the corners of 'his zhouth. Bloutwell, of' Massachu. sette, looks essentially like a -descendant of the Pilgrim Fathers--that "worst ho of immigrants ever landed on this; side of the Atiktilo." dIe thick hair and board are of mingled black and grey; his.complexion saturnine .ahd eallow3 ears large. fantunraa a1 tsl Pampa..o0 der, and his hands are behind his ~back his whole air conveying tio ,doa of one who is heartilyashamed of bon caught where ho is, and not halfsatisfiet with his company.flast of all,wo have tlt only good-natured looking, well condi tioned old ge'itleman in tho entir crowd-Mr. \Viniiams, of Pensyivania who sits witi his hands crossed in plaei contentment on his knees, a smile or his rather fat blank face, considerahhl resolution in the heavy lines about hi Mouth, small eyes, sinalt ears, whits hair and beard, ample si.irt front of tit country deacon order, and an impeccca ble black sit of pious clothing.
