I have read sud dreamed of a beautiful gate, Moving on binges of -purest gold, On the other side of the River of Death, WhoBo waters are dark, and dreary and cold. Many have readied that deep, dark stream. On Its quiet brink to watoh and wait For the messenger palo, to bear them across Its wavelets tide to the Golden Gato. ' Tho first ono thai loft our household band Was ono who had eyes of deepest blue. With a brow as fair as the palo spring flower, And a heart as pure as tho morning dow. Long sho lav on a bod cf pain, Long, very long, did we hopo and wait; My angel sister, where is she non? Shebas entered in at tho Golden Gate. An angel came, and within her arms 8bo bore lier away to ber borne above; I canght the gleam of ? glitt tiring band. And beard sweet words lrom a hymn of love. But the angel guest soon carno again. And another one left our broken band Another ono passed through the Golden Gate ' Into the beautiful shining Land. Mother, obi mother, I cried io my grief, How long on earth most I weep and wait? "Till it pleaseth God," a voiro roplied, To call thee home through tho Golden Gate. Thus one by ono they all paasod away, While I am left, lonely and desolate. How 1 sometimta yearn for tho angel to como And bear mo top through the Golden Gate. ID fanoy I see my mother's face. And my gentle sister's violet eyes; And the rest that havo left me, I see thom too, Looking down at mo from tho azure skioa. When tho slanting rays of the setting sun A glory of moiton gold creato, A child's soft whisper readies my ear "We are waiting tor thee at the Golden Gate.1' When I he san moves Routh in the autumn sky, And tho leaves their branches all forsake, I know that I,*like, them, will dip. And pass to my rest through tho Uoldon Gato. fOrlginal. , OB THB FORTUNES OF JULIET CLAYBURN, CONTINUED. Hiss Rawleigh was looking out of thc carriage window, wrapped in such pro? found meditations, she did not even heai her cousin's question, and as Miss Clay burn vouchsafed no reply, the gentle man continued his remarks "It is a singular thing that Von Oppen heirn, who lived in such intimate associa tion with her in Ashburn, who bac such at extravagant fondness for female society and such an exalted idea of the divinity of womanhood, positively dislikes her He is too gentlemanly, to he sure, to in dulge in animadversions where a lady ii concerned; still to one who knows hin ns well as myself, it is evident he noithei admires nor respects her. His d?cid?e disinclination to speak of her or hear he: discussed, proves it. Well-well-mun seems to be the word, but I suppose th? mystery will be unravelled some day." Bo it would, perhaps; and it were we] also, perhaps, that Mr. Lyle knew no the when, the how, nor the where. "Poor Von Oppenheim! poor Voi Oppenheim 1" resumed the gentleman after a contemplative silence of som moments. "What Praed calls "destiny' December,' has thrown its blight ove bis life. His is a hard fate. To lov v/ith such an exclusive, absorbing pas sion, aud to be so unhandsomely re quited-it ?B atrocious! I would would-. Well, never mind what would do-hut 'Lot UH pray to bo saved from love and ope< Ires.' " "And Granny Plimpton," added Eu genia, bobbing her bead far back inti the eui ringo. Mr. Lyle and Miss Giaybur laughingly followed her example, and th Ora tiny, whose sight was not so good a it hud been when she was young Bets Tompkins, passed by, peering with lu disguised admiration und curiosity at th handsome turnout-the heavy silv< mounting1}, elegant embellishment! dasby horses, and the liveried, dignitie coachman, keeping haughty state on th box. "Father is at last released from 'di rance vile,'" remarked Juliet, after M Lylo had cautiously reconnoitred tl situation and proclaimed that the euem had disappeared. Mr. Clayburn a\ pronched almost immediately. He spoil cordially to Eugenia, who was on tl Soint of introducing her cousin, win lr. Clayburn interrupted the cor mouy. "No need of an introduction to th face," hu said, grasping Mr. Lyle's han warmly. "It is either Benjamin P. Ly! come back to life-or, it must be-it cu be, no other than the son of my ol comrade. Wo were like brother Theodore-your father and I. Mau a canty day have we had together in ot childhood, and we were chums durit the whole of our collegiatecourso. Ye are suoh a living prototype of yoi father, I can almost fancy ho stands b fore me as I last saw bim." "I feel gratified and honored, sir, your kind words and your friendly r membrance of my father,"* said M Lylo, with ill-concealed emotion; "o of the last words I over heard from L lips was your name. And you were have been my guardian-it was I earnest desire, but-" "Yes-yes. Your mother. I undi stand-it was all explained to mo at t timo. But she made a great mistake influencing him to pursue suoh a oom in your education. It is radically wro in theory and practico, according to t '. ^^^^rf^MliU'V% -?.,'.???>??V-.- .' ','?> .?'...?*..*..? y! ?-WIN'. judgment, to be Bonding boys to foreign conn tries, in order ko make them good American citizens.. - Wrfs it thoa that the Greciana, 'the tnbat pre-eminent and celebrated of all h?tions^ ta the depart? ment of letters, ?aa it-thus they edu? cated tho youth of the country? Was it thus they stimulated a happy develop? ment of physical and mental powers; im? planting in the mind heroic devotion and loyalty to their native land, and instilled those principles of uuiveisal and entire sacrifice of everything individual to the good of the State, which, beyond every? thing, waa the predominant element in their greatness and lasting renown? Waa it by sending them to dwell for years under a foreign sky, to breathe for years a foreign atmosphere, to hear a foreign tongue, and become impregnated with foreign sentiments, manners and customs, that they preserved the national honor, moulded the heroes who fought at Platea, Marathon and Salamis-made philosophers, poets, warriors and states? men, and engraved sueh immortal names on the annals of fame as Sophocles, Herodotus, Aristotle, Plato, Homer, Xenophon, Lycurgus, Demosthenes, Euripides, and numberless others?" .'Butyou forget, Mr. Clayburn, that the Greeks were themselves foremost in civilization, refinement, and intellectual culture. Ae early as the time of Homer, tho language hud already attained that marvelous degree of excellence, polished beauty and perfection, which it is now universally admitted to possess. In Athena was tho renowned academy, tho lyceum, where Aristotle taught, the garden of Epicurus, the museum, and numerous other public and common schools. The city, at the height of pros? perity and unrivaled in splendor, was the centre of the cultivated world, the seat of knowledge, civilization, literature and the arts. And there, under eminent teachers, originated that admirable sys? tem of education, so well adapted to pro? mote improvement in every branch of human learning. There was evidently nothing to be gained by sending tho Greoian youth abroad, except to enlarge their attainments by travel, to acquire a desirable acqnaintance with other lands, and, by observation, to gain a knowledge of the usaful or curious, as developed in the arts and sciences of other nations. But the Roman youth, who did not dis? dain to profit by the superior cultivation of the Athenians and their advancement in civil and religious instruction, were many of them sent to Athens to be edu? cated. Horace studied at tho academy, and imbibed the philosophy of the Epi? cureans-so did Ovid, also. Even Virgil visited Athens, and was early initiated into Grecian philosophy; Parthenius in? structed him in the literature of thc Greeks. So, as the youth of othei nations eame to Athens for instruction, as a matter of course, the Athenians dit not go abroad for that, which they coule obtain in its highest perfection at home America, young and vigorous, witt splendid elements of strength and nude veloped powers, mny be called tin modern Borne; but Europe, superior ii the accumulated refinements, improve menin, intellectual wealth and eruditioi of centuries, holds the supremacy in tin realm of letters-the glorious Athens o literature, matchless and involved iu in teileotual beauty and magnificence." "Pshaw!" exclaimed Mr. Clayburn "superior in artificial gloss and lnxnriou refinement, I grant, and in that alone for if ever iu modern times, the disinte rested patriotism, heroic courage une chivalric grandeur of a Kornau or ; Grecian age, is to be eclipsed, it will b on American soil, under an America sky, in tho noble cause of liberty-am not by the down-trodden minions c European tyranny and oppression. Bu here our argument must cease for th present-I see we are at your door, an here is my old friend Bawleigh." "Dr. Bawleigh had already quitted hi seat on the shaded porch, and was hot bling out to the vehicle to greet its ic mates. He was a jolly, rotund, rec faced individual, who looked as if h might be afflicted with the dropsy While the elderly geutlemen were er gaged in a profound disputation on th subject of the crops, the state of th country and tho political aspects of th Limes, Mr. Lyle turned to Juliet, with th question "And do yon share, Miss Clayburn, i your father's invincible antipathy t everything un-American?" "Not?t all," was the reply; "on th contrary, I am predisposed to the ot ht extreme, which I think equally culpabh I find myself continually prone to attach higher degree of excellence to everythin .vliich comes from abroad, to tho detr ment of everything American. For it stance, I like a genuine Lancashire cal co bettor than an American print-I lib silks from Lyons; crape from Bologni perfumery, distilled waters, essences, to let soaps, confectionery, sweetmeats, boi nets aud dresses from la belle Paris. I lil marble from Carrara, or tho quarries < Orin fi in ; porcelain from Sevres, or Sta fordshire; furs from Rusai a ; carpets fro: Turkey, Persia, or Brussels; shawls froi Endin; fans from China; velvet fro Genoa, aud a watch from Geneva. I lil Italian art" and urtists; pictures an statuary from Florence or Borne; shel from the Mediterranean; luces and can brio from Valenciennes; music fro Germany; winos pressed from grape which ripened on tho castled crags i thc Rhine; and Inst, but not least, pii from tho manufactories of Birmingham "On my word," Baid Mr. Lyle, langi iQg. "you are certainly cosmopolite : your likes. After defining your pohitic so concisely, I readily acquit yon of an narrow views, or hereditary prejudice i antipathies to foreign things. I dare sa your long residence at Ashburn, fro under paternal discipline, has som thing to do with this enlarged conceptit of matters." "Perhaps so." "Come over, Theodore," said M Clayburn, offering his hand in adie "como over, and we'll finish that arg ment about foreign education. If I ci nd a nco nothing oise in support of my opinion, there ia one evil consequence of a personal nature, which I can mention, and that is, my being nearly insulted to* doy, by an introduction to tho BOD of my earliest friend, who has deserted his country for a raoe of wine-bibbling, wrangling, tobacco-smoking, beer-drink? ing, pleasure-loving, villainous foreigners, and become a stranger to his : own land and his own people." "Pray cease this tirade, father," re? monstrated Juliet, in some trepidation. "Mr. Lyle will not thank you for snob an unwarrantable disparagement of him? self and friends." "Lot me offer the true interest and friendship whioh I feel for him on ac? count of bis father, in extenuation of my words," Mr. Clayburn said, apologeti? cally. "But I tell you, Theodore, it is more the pity, that your father's plaus were not carried out, and you were not my ward." "I've no doubt of it," affirmed Mr. Lylo, earnestly; "as for your words, be? lieve mo, they need no apology. But if you knew my friend Von Oppenheim, you would have a moro favorable opinion of tho people among whom I have been sojourning." "I am acquainted with him," said Mr. Clayburn, an almost imperceptible color rising to his face; "have met him several times, and on the whole, liked him bet? ter than any of his race it has ever been my fortune to know. But-'can there any good thing como ont of Nazareth?' " Mr. Lyle smiled good-naturedly at this implied doubt as to his friend's perfect excellence, and as the coachman at this juncture saw fit to put whip to the horses, he bowed a graceful adieu to Mr. Clay? burn and his daughter.
