THE SOUL'S DEFIANCE.*
I said to sorrow's awful storm
That beat against my breast,
Rage on 1?thou may'st destroy this
form,
And lay it low at rest;
But still the spirit that now brooks
The tempest, raging high,
Undaunted, on its fury looks
With steadfast eye.
I said to Penury's meagre train,
Corrve on !?your threats I brave
And crush rne to the grave;
Yet still the spirit that endures,
Shall mock your force the while,
And meet each coid, told 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 forgot ;
Yet still the spirit, which you see
Undaunted hy vour wiles
Draws from its own nobility
Its high born smiles.
%
I said to Friendship's menaced blow,
Strike depp !?my heart shall bear j
Thou canst add one bitter woe
To those already there ;
Yet stiil the spirit, that sustains
This last severe distress.
Snail smi e upon its keenest pains,
And scorn redress
I said to Death's uplifted darf,
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 ?he iast dismay,
Wrapped in its own etornity,
Shall smiling pass away.

LAW AND LAUGHING.
44 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. Lawyers
are the greatest laughers upon earth;
and 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 <
aiong with the arm. All men should re- j
spect the law, and keep it, also, at a re- [
spectable distance. We once heard of a
man who lived till he was ninety without
ever getting into the law, and he was the
merriest old fellow that ever lived. A
neighbor started a law suit against him,
and the old man died immediately. Law
was made to be laughed at; and those who j
do not laugh with one side of the mouth, j
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 go1
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.
"We must not make a scarecrow of the
law," nor do we wish to take away a
?ngle feather of its dignity, but we re-1
commend to all in need of advice j
(charging no fee for the same) the ideas;
of a philosopher whom we heard discours-!
ing yesterday. He stood upon the curb :
stone, embracing an awning post, and
#>mi!*?mnl:?tincr sundry legal gentlemen j
""T n . v o y I
pissing in and out of a court of justice opposite.
. I
" There's where I'm lucky," said he,!
taking an irregular step, and grasping the !
post more firmly as he came to a stand j
again. "There's where I'm lucky?ha,
ha, ha !?they've never got me into law.,
and I laugh at 'em all, judges, and juries, i
and 1 awyers and clients?hir?and plain- \
tiffs, and, that's my philosophy. Now, if*i
that gen?hie?tleman with three hooks
under his arm and spectacles on his nose.;
-should come ovei and request me to favor1
him with a suit in chancery?ha, ha, ha,;
Ira !?poor devil?hie?how I would
laugh at him! Philosophy is a great
ihing?hie! I never was brought up to
the bar but once, and then I performed a
popular piece of " unwritten music" upon j
my nose w ith my ten fingers, and politely !
signified to the judge that he 'could'nt,
come it !T Ha, ha, ha, ha ! laughing has!
always seemed to me a more profitable!
business than fighting?hie! When a|
man's in a passion with you, and wants to j
go to law, laugh him out of it and he's j
. your friend forever ! That's my philoso-'
phy?hie Law! L-A-W, Law! Theglo-j
rious uncertainty of the law?hie! ha, j
ha, ha, ha ! Now there goes a poor devil
into court, looking as melancholy as a ,
musquitoc in January. I wonder how
much money he has spent getting poor by ,
law! Poor devil! ha, ha, ha?hie! 1 could j
have settled his business for half the;
money, and left him twice as well off, j
too. If they'll admit me to plead at the ;
bar, I'll introduce a new practice and
check litigation?hie?materially. I'll
?hie?I'll?ha, ha?hie?teach my clients
to laugh at law?they shall always
be in such ajollv good humor that law
wont he able to touch them with a ten
foot pole. They shall assail their opponents
with broad grins, and laugh judge
and jury out of?hie?countenance!" I
Our laughing philosopher here went off
into an irrepres>ible fit of cacthination,
and he certainly was the merriest looking
genuis that has recently fallen under our
observation. lie tickled us, and we resolved
to "hand him down," let his odd

THE FORSAKEN GIRL.
BY JOH>' G. WHJTTIER.
"They parted?an all lovcrp part ?
She with hor wrong and broken hcait;
But he, rejoicing he is Tree,
Bounds like the captive tioin his chain,
And wilfully boliovin^ she
Hath found her liberty aoain."
L. K. LANDON.
If there is any act which deserves deep
and bitter condemnation; it is that of f
trifling with the inestimable gift of wo- J
man's affection. The female may be 1
compared to a delicate harp?over which <
the breathings of early affection wander, i
until each tender chord is awakened to <
tones of ineffable sweetness. It is the 1
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- 1
icate fashioning of that harp if a change 3
pass over the love which first called forth |
its hidden harmonies. Let neglect and j
cold unkindness sweep over its delicate I
strings, and they will break one after another,
slowly perhaps, but surely. Unvisited
and unrequited by the light of love,
the soul-like melody will be 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 lonelv and solemn graves.
I love at times to do so. I feel a melancholy
not unallied to pleasure in commening
with the resting place of those
UnttA rrnno Kd fnr*. me?to PO forth I
I w uu uarc gui?v -- nalone
among the thronged tombstones,
I rising from every grassy undulation like
I 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-1
lence of my heart?and if it be only a
dream?the unreal imagery of fancy?I
prav God, that I may never awaken from (
! the beautiful delusion.
I have been this evening by the grave
of Emily. It has a jjiain white tomb- 1
stone, half hidden by flowers, and you '
may read its mouruful epitaph in the clear '
moonlight, which falls on it Iik3 the smile 1
j of an Angel, through an opening into the !
I drooping branches. Emily was a beauti- j
! ful girl?the fairest of our village maidens.
I think I see her now, as she look- j
ed 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 ob- J
ject of her love was a proud and wayward
being?whose haughty spirit never re- j
laxed 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 u venture of her
vow," and who loved him with the confi- (
ding earnestness of a pure and devoted {
heart. Nature had deprived him of the '
advantages of outward grace and beauty; J
and it was the abiding consciousness of
this, which gave to his intercourse with 1
society a character of pride and sternness.
He felt himself in some degree removed
from his fellow men by tnc partial fash- j
ioning of Nature; and he scorned to seek
a nearer affinity. His mind was of an c
exalted bearing, and prodigal of beauty. *
The flowers of Poctrv wore in his imagin- f
? I
ation 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 j
dark eyed daughters of the ancient Ghcber
spread out their offerings from the gardens
of the East upon the altar of the Sun.
There is a surpassing strength in a r
love like that of Emily's?It has nothing i
crross. nor low, nor earthly in its vearn- | "
O ' . '
ings?it has its source in the deeper fountains
of the human hear!?and is such as *
the redeemed and sanctified from earth 1
might feel for one another in the fair land r
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, I
hut not before they had vowed eternal *
constancy to each other.?The one re- "
turned to the quiet of her home?to dream
over again the scenes of her early pas- '
sion, to count with untiring eagerness r
the hours of separation, and to weep f
over the long interval of "hope deferred." s
?The other went with a strong heart to f
mingle with the world?girded with pride *
and impelled forward by ambition. He ?
found the world cold, and callous, and r
selfish, and his own spirit insensibly took r
the hue of those around him. lie shut his I
eyes upon the past, it was too pure and f
mildly beautiful for the sterner gaze of J
his manhood. He forgot the passion of c
boyhood?all beautiful and holy as it was s
?he turned not hack to the youug and I
lovely and devoted girl, who had poured I
to him in the confiding earnestness of wo
o ,
man's confidence the wealth of her aflTec
tion. He came not back to fulfil the vow i
which he had plighted. j f
1 ' * .lrrt/Mfln^nro nf ! (

her lover's infidelity came over the sensi- 1
five heart of Emily. She sought for a 1
time to shut out the horrihle suspicion '
from her mind?she half doubted the evu 1
denee of her.own senses?she could not I
believe that he was a traitor?for her mein- <
ory had treasured up every token of his af. <
tion?every impassioned word and every '
endearing smile of his tenderness. But |
the truth caineat last?the doubtful spec- >
tre which had long haunted her; and J
from which she had turned awa\, as if it i
were sin to look upon it,*now stood before '
her a dreadful and unescnpnble vision of J '
reality. There was one burst ot passion- i
ate tears---the overflow of that fountain of i
atHietion which quenches the lust ray of
hope in the desolate bosom---and she was |
calm?for the struggle was over, and she i
gazed steadily and with the awful conti- I
I dence of oue whose hopes are not of '
i 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 loner line of blue <
and undulating hills, touching their tall
summits with a radiance like the halo
. v.hith circles the dazzling brow of an An- ]
J 1 . . .< -/
rel, and all Nature had put on the rich i
garniture of greenness and blossom. As
approached the quiet and secluded
1 welling of the once happy Emily, I
found the door of the little parlor thrown
>pen; and a female voice of a sweetness
which could hardly be sa;id to belong to
Earth, stole out upon the soft Summer
lir. It was like the breathing of an
dEolian lute to the gentlest visitation of
the Zephyr. Involuntarily I paused to
listen, and these words?I shall never for.
?et them?came upon my ear like the low
ind melancholy music which we some*
times hear in dreams?
44 Oh?no?I do not fear to die
For hope and Faith are bold,
And life is but a weariness?
And Eartb is strangely cold?
In view of Death's pale solitude
My spirit hath not mourned?
Tis kinder than forgotten love,
Of friendship uureturned!
And I could pass the dhadowed land
In rapture ail the while?
If one who now is far away.
Were near me with his smile.
It seems a dreary thing to die
Forgotten and alon??
Unheeded by our dearest lore?
The smiles and tears of one!
Oh! plant my grave with pleasant flowers
;
The fairest ot the fair?
The very flowers he loved to twine
At twilight in imy hiir.
Perc hance he yet may visit there
And shed above my bier
The holiest dew of fureral flowers
Affection's kindly tear!"
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
pltiycd over her features, for a moment,
flushing her cheek with a slight and sudden
glow?and then passed away, leaving
in its stead the wanner and mournful
beauty of the dying. It has been said
that Death is always terrible to look upon.
But to the stricken Emily the presence
)f the Destroyer was like the ministration
)f an Angel of light and holiness. She
vas passing off to the land of spirits like
he melting of a sunset cloud into the blue
)f Heaven?stealing from existence like I
he strain of ocean music when it dies
iwav slowly and sweetly upon the moonight
waters.
A few days after, I stood by the grave ,
)f Emily. The villagers had gathered
ogether one and all, to pay the last tribute
)f respect and affection t o the lovely sleep;r.
They mourned her loss with a deep
md sincere lamentation?they marvelled
hat one so young and so beloved should
pield herself up to melancholy, and perish
n the spring time of her existence. But
hey knew not the hidden arrow which |
lad rankled in her bosom?the slow and
lecret withering of her heart. She had
jornc the calamity in silence?in the unmmplaining
quietude of one, who felt that
here are woes which may not ask for

ip some recollection or a sau uuu pniuiuu
lature. Mrs. Montgrmery was a resilent
of Pensacoln. (my in her dtspoiition,
kind and courteous tn her inter:ourse
with society, aha was justly a favorite
with all and especially Mr. Montgomery,
an army officer. They became
nueh attached and were equally meritaious
and deserving of each other. But
heir intimacy was frowned upon by her
hther, who was opulent, while Montjomery
had only his army pay and diviIcd
between a dependent mother and
lister. The opposition of the paren* onv
gave intensity to their feeling, and
ed them to the resoutation to be married
mmediately. The father continued firm
n his opposition, and after they were
narricdshe was forbidden to enter the
jeternal mansion.. Before leaving the
utv with her husband, she waited some
?J
lours, hoping to have an interview with
ler father. If he did not relent, he might
)id his daughter an eternal farewell?
[3ut even this poo: consolation was denied
icr, and she left with her husband, the
uilv one on earth to whom, in her disinsection,
she could cling. After ,
esiding for some line at one of the }
josts in the interior of Florida, she was j
;ent under an escort of soldiers to another
Nation, where her husband expected in a
few days to join her. On their way they
were attacked bv the Indians and slaughtered,
she fell covered with wounds, and
when ihey were found, only a faithful dying
soldier remained to tell the sad story.
They all might have escaped, but they
--- 1 -l-i*?i u?>
preierea 10 remain unu neienu m:i, auu
id doing so, ihey 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 solace
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 seltishness
of the world in this way, yet how
V A ,
soon is the startling admonition fotgotten.
And this and secbas this, are the sacrafices
made to Mammonby his devoted
worshippers?a murdered daughter* a bereaved
husband and a broken hearted parent.
What now avails the father's
wealth; when weighed against the loss
of one most dearly loved and cherished :n
her early days?and the deep affliction
the bereavment has carried to his heart.
The fiend of avarice and moneyed respectability*
but mocks hiin when it points to
his hoarded treasures* and bids him look
for comfort there. And yet how many
make the sacred marriage tie a mere-matter
of traffic and speculation, regardless
and reckless of the result that must soon
or late sting their hearts with many sorrows*
and make the fountains and streams
of human happiness and life* as bitter as
- - as a% *i i
tne waters m mar an in tne wilderness
ofSin. God never made the deep
nnd pure affections of the heart thus to
be bough and sold?and to those who so
degrade and dishonor them, sad are the
inevetable consequences. Oft times un
revealed to the eye of the world, they yet
live to blast the comforts and destroy the
peace of thousands who in rustling silks
and 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, i> worth a lifetime of such
outward show, when secret care, carking
trouble pin their possessors down, like flattering
insacts, to the poor and barren place
in which they pine in hopiessness and die.
