THE SOUL'S DEFIANCE.* I said to sorrow's awful storm That beat against my breast, Rage on ??thou may'st destroy this form, And lay it low at rest; But still the spirit that now brookB The tempest, raging high, Undaunted, on its fury looks With steadfast eye. I said to Penury's meagre train, Come on !?your threats I brave And crush rne to the grave; Yet siill the spirit that endures. Shall mock your force the while, And meet each coid, cold grasp of yours, With bitter smile. I said to cold Neglect and Scorn, Pass on !?I heed you not; Ye may pursue me till my form And being are forgo: ; Vet still the spirit, which you see Undaunted by vour wiles Draws from its own nobility Its high born smiles. \ I said to Friendship's menaced blow, Strike deep ??my heart shall bear j Thou canst add one bitter woe To those already there ; Yfer stii! the spirit, that sustains This last severe distress. Snail smi e upon its keenest pains, And scorn redress I said to Death's uplifted dart, Aim sure !?-Oh, why de ay ? Thou wilt not find a fearful heart? A weak, reluctant prey; For still the spirit, firm and free, Triumphant in ihe last dismay, Wrapped in its own etornttv, Shall smiling pass away. This Poem was written many years ago, by a lady and written from experience and feeling. LAW AND LAUGHING. " Oh, I am stabb'd with laughter.^ The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers.' Law was made to be laughed at. LawVers are the greatest laughers upon earth; ?nd their extensive practice in this way is all down in the sleeve, which was the original cause why counsellors' gowns were furnished with room to slip the head in j along with the arm. All men should re- j spect the law, and keep it, also, at a re-' apectable distance. We once heard of a j man who lived till he was ninety without j ever getting into the law, and he was the ! 1 ' ' 11 niror lived. A ! merriest oia iciiuw mat neighbor started a law suit against him, and the old man died immediately. Law was made to be laughed at; and those who do not laugh with one side of the mouth, will probably with the other. It is a very subtle sort of medicine, and " kill or cure" should always be stamped upon the label. There are two sorts of people who can go into law with safety, the man who has nothing to lose and the Sir Giles Overreach, who can fee his judges as well as his lawyers. MlVe must not make a scarecrow of the law," nor do we wish to take away a tingle feather of its dignity, but we re- i commend to all in need of advice J (charging no fee for the same) the ideas of a philosopher whom we heard discours-1 ing yesterday. He stood upon the curb j stone, embracing an awning post, and contemplating sundry legal gentlemen ! passing in and out of a court of justice oppjaite* > M There's where I'm lucky," said he,j taking an irregular step, and grasping the j nost more firmly as he came to a stand j again. "There'* where I'm hicky?ha, I ha, ha !?they've never got me into law.! and I laugh at 'em all, judges, and juries, and lawyers and clients?hie?and plain-; tiffi^ and, that's my philosophy. Now, if i that gen?hie?tleman with three hooks ainder his arm and spectacles on his nose.; .should come ovei and request me to favor him with a suit in chancery?ha, ha, ha, j lw !?poor devil?hie?how I would j laugh at him I Philosophy is a great j thing?hie!

He tickled us, and we re. eolved to "hand him down," let his odd philosophy he worth what it may; but it ?tike? us, if there were more of his way of thinking in the world, there would be less work for the lawyers.?Ficayunc. THE FORSAKEN GIRL. BY JOHN G. WHITTIER. They parted?an all lover* part? She with hor wrong and broken heat t; But he, rejoicing h? is free, Bounds tike the captive from his chain, A'?d wilfully bulioving she HaUi found her liberty again." L. K. LANDON. If there is any act which deserves deep and bitter condemnation; it is that of trifling with the inestimable gift of woman's affection. The female may be compared to a delicate harp?over which the breathings of early affection wander, until each tender chord is awakened to tones of ineffable sweetness. It is the music of the soul which is thus called forth?a music sweeter than the fall of fountains or the song of Houri in the Moslem's Paradise. But woe for the del. *'?CooKirknincr of that harD if a change iuaIC laoinv.....^ ? f ? ? c ! pass over the love which first called forth its hidden harmonies. Let neglect and cold unkindness sweep over its delicate strings, and they will break one after another, slowly perhaps, but surely. Un. visited and unrequited by the light of love, the soul-like melody will he hushed in the stricken besom?like the mysterious harrhony of the Egyptian statue, before the coming of the sunrise. I have been wandering among the graves?the lonely and solemn graves. ! I love at times to do so. I feel a melan. choly not unallied to pleasure ill communing with the resting place of those who have gone before me?to go forth j alone among the thronged tombstones, rising from every grassy undulation like the ghostly sentinels of the departed. And when I kneel above the narrow mansion of one whom I have known and loved in life, I feel a strange assurance that the spirit of the sleeper is near me a viewless and ministering angel. It is a beautiful philosophy, which has found its way unsought for and mysteriously into the si- | lence of my heart?and if it be only a dream?the unreal imagery of fancy?I pray God, that I may never awaken from the beautiful delusion. I have been this evening by the grave of Emilv- It has a ^Jain white tombstone, half hidden by flowers, and you may read its mouruful epitaph in the clear moonlight, which falls on it lik-3 the smile j of an Angel, through an opening into the | drooping branches. Emily was a beauti' ful girl?the fairest of our village maidens. I think I see her now, as she looked when the loved one?the idol of her affections, was near her with his smile of conscious triumph and exulting love. She had then seen but eighteen summers, and her whole being seemed woven of the dream of her first passion. The obAfkor lnvp was a nroud and wayward J^V/l VI aivs ?v? w " ? ? -- p. being?whose haughty spirit never relaxed from its habitual sternness, save when he found himself in the presence of the young and beautiful creature, who had trusted her all on the " venture of her vow," and who loved him with the confiding earnestness of a pure and devoted heart. Nature had deprived him of the advantages of outward grace and beauty; and it was the abiding consciousness of this, which gave to his intercourse with society a character of pride and sternness. He felt himself in some degree removed from his fellow men by trie partial fashioning of Nature; and he scorned to seek a nearer affinity. His mind was of an exalted bearing, and prodigal of beauty. The flowers of Poetry wore in his imagination a perpetual blossoming; and it was to his intellectual beauty that Emily knelt down?bearing to the alter of her Idol the fair flowers of her affection?even as the dark eyed daughters of the ancient Ghrber spread out their offerings from the gardens of the East upon the alrar of the Sun. There is a surpassing strength in a love like that of Emily's?It has nothing ! gross, nor low, nor earthly in its yearn, ings?it has its source in the deeper foun. tains of the human heart?and is such as the redeemed and sanctified from earth might feel for one another in the fair land of spirits-?Alas! that such he unrequited, or turned back in coldness and darkness upon the crushed heart of its giver! They parted?Emily and her lover, but not before they had vowed eternal constancy to each other.?The one returned to the quiet of her home?to dream over again the scenes of her early pas. sion, to count with untiring eagerness the hours of separation, and to weep over the long interval of "hope deferred." ?The other went with a strong heart to mingle wun me worm?girm-u wuu j>n?iu and impelled forward by ambition. He found the world cold, and callous, and selfish, and his own spirit insensibly took the hue of those around him. He shut his eyes upon the past, it was too pure and mildly beautiful for the sterner gaze of his manhood. He forgot the passion of boyhood?all beautiful and holy as it was ?he turned not back to the youug and lovely and devoted girl, who had poured to him in the confiding earnestness of woman's confidence the wealth of her affec. tion. He came not back to fulfil the vow which he had plighted. Slowly and painfully the knowledge of her lover's infidelity came over the sensitive heart of Emily. She sought for a time to shut out the horrible suspicion from her mind?she half doubted the evi A dence of her.own senses--sne coum n<u believe that he was a traitor?for her mem. ory had treasured up every token of his af. tion?every impassioned word and evorv endearing smile of his tenderness. But the truth came at last?the doubtful spectre which had long haunted her; and from which she had turned away, as if it were sin to look upon it,*now stood before j her a dreadful and unescapahle vision of reality. There was one burst of passion- I ate tears?the overflow of that fountain of j affliction which quenches the last ray of hope in the desolate bosom?and she was, calm?for the struggle was over, and she gazed steadily and with the awful confi dence of ooe whose hopes are noi or earth, upon the dark Valley of Death whose shadow was already around her. It was a beautiful evening of Summer; that I saw her for the last time. The sun was just setting behind a long line of blue and undulating hills, touching their tall summits with a radiance like the halo , w hich circles the dazzling brow of an An gel, and all Nature had put on the rich s garniture of greenness and blossom. As t I approached the quiet and secluded dwelling of the once happy Emily, I r found the door of the little parlor thrown * open; and a female voice of a sweetness r which could hardly be said to belong to r Earth, stole out upon the soft Summer v air. It was like the breathing of an c ASolian lute to the gentlest visitation of ^ the Zephyr. Involuntarily I paused to t listen, and these words?I shall never for. get them?came upon my ear like thelow t and melancholy music which we some- 1 times hear in dreams? f 44 Oh?no?I do not fear to die For hope and Faith are bold, * And life is but a weariness? s And Earth is strangely cold? < In view of Death's pale solitude I My spirit hath not mourned? ( 'Tis kinder than forgotten love, I Of friendship uureturned! And I could pass the shadowed land ' In rapture all the while? ' If one who now is far away, < Were near me with his smile. i It seeins a dreary thing to die j Forgotten and alone? ] Unheeded by our dearest love? The smiles and tears of one ! Oh ! plant my grave with pleasant flowers; 1 The fairest ot the fair? The very flowers he loved to twine * At twilight in my hair. < | . Perchance lie yet may visit mere i And shed above my bier ( ( The holiest dew of funeral flowers Affection's kindiy tear!" 1 It was the voice of Emily * * * * She was leaning on the sofa as I entered ! the apartment?her thin white hand resting on her Bible. She rose and welcomed me with a melancholy smile. It played over her features, for a moment, flushing her cheek with a slight and sudden glow?and then passed away, leaving J in its stead the wanness and mournful ! beauty of the dying. It has been said * that Death is always terrible to look upon. < But to the stricken bmily the presence j of the Destroyer was like the ministration , of a 11 Angel of light and holiness. She was passing off to the land of spirits like < the melting of a sunset cloud into the blue of Heaven?stealing from existence like the strain of ocean music when it dies away slowly and sweetly upon the moon- j light waters. ( A few days after, I stood by the grave , of Emily. The villagers had gathered together one and all, to pay the last tribute of respect and affection to the lovely sleep. ' er. They mournod her loss with a deep and sincere lamentation?they marvelled that one so young and so beloved should yield herself up to melancholy, and perish in the spring time of her existence. But , they knew not the hidden arrow which j had rankled in her bosom?the slow and secret withering of her heart. She had borne the calamity in silence?in the un- i complaining quietude of one, who felt that there are woes which may not ask for sympathy?afflictions, which like the can- * ker, concealed in the heart of some fair blossoms, are discovered, only by the un-, timely decay of their victim. From the Philadnlphia North American. woxan's devotion. Marrying for lore, and refusing to mar 1 ryfor money?a parent's harsh conduct ?the consequences?retribution. In an Indian camp, in Florida from which the savages were driven by Cap. lain Barnman, there were found an un. dicss uniform coat, belonging to Lt. Sherwood, and a lace collor which was the property of the unfortunate Mrs. Montgomery, A duantity of clothing t taken from the bodies of slain soldiers was also discovered, and much plunder. ?Saranah republican. Tli above simple announcment brings up some recollection of a sad and painfull nature. Mrs. Montgomery was a resi. dent of Pensacola. Gay in her dlsposition, kind and courteous in her inter- ' course with society, she was justly a fa. vorite with all and especially Mr. Mont- j gomery, an army officer. They became } much attached and were equally merita rious and deserving of each other. But 1 their intimacy was frowned upon oy ner father, who was opulent, while Montgomery had only his army pay and divided between a dependent mother and sister. The opposition of the parent on- , ly gave intensity to their feelings, and < led them to the resoulution to be married < immediately. The father continued firm I in his opposition, and after they were <* married she was forbidden to enter the < peternal mansion. Before leaving the 1 city with her husband, she waited some hours, hoping to have an interview with her father. If he did not relent, he might bid his daughter an eternal farewell? But even this poor consolation was denied ( her, and she left with her husband, the j only one on earth to whom, in her disconsolation, she could cling. After 1 residing for some time at one of the 1 posts in the interior of Florida, she was sent under an escort of soldier* to another ? . i ; station, where her liusnana expected in a few days to join her. On their way they were attacked by the Indians and slaughtered, she fell covered with wounds, and when they were found, only a faithful dying soldier remained to tell the sad story. They all might have escaped, but they pretered to remain and defend her, and in doing so, they were all shot down and left for dead! The anguish of the husbandmay be well imagined. But the heartrending grief of the parent finds no so. lace even in his hoarded treasures. His unkindness to his, daughter, and the agonizing circumstances of her death, have destroyed his peace of mind, and left him perfectly inconsolable. God in his providence often rebukes the cold hearted selfishness of the world in this way, yet how oon is the startling admonition fotgot- J en. t And this and secbas this, are the sac- ^ afices made to Mammon by his devoted j worshippers?a murdered daughter, a beeaved husband and a broken hearted paent. What now avails the father's wealth; when weighed against the loss f one most dearly loved and cherished in j ler early days?and the deep affliction t he bereavment has carried to his heart. ; The fiend of avarice and moneyed respec- 1 ability, but mocks him when it points to '< lis hoarded treasures, and bids him look or comfort there. And yet how many nake the sacred marriage tie a mere-mater of traffic and speculation, regardless md reckless of the result that must soon | >r late sting their hearts with many sor- 1 ows, and make the fountains and streams . )f human happiness and life, as bitter as he waters in Marah in the wilderness >fSin. God never made the deep ind pure affections of the heart thus to )e bough and sold?and to those who so iegrade and dishonor them, sad are the nevetable consequences. Oft times un evealed to the eye of the world, they yet live to blast the comforts and destroy me jeace of thousands who in rustling silks md splended equipage, are to frequently the envy of the unthinking and the emulous. One kind word?one faithful whisper from a heart that truly and cincerely loves, is worth a lifetime of such Dutward show, when secret care, carking trouble pin their possessors down, like flattering insacts, to the poor and barren place in which they pine in hoplessness and die. ?W.
