POETRY.
From th Allaatis AlotULl.
The Old .Man's D.ranis.
0 ! for one hour of youthful joy !
Give back my twentieth spring!
I'd rnthcr lauh u b.ilit-h.iitcd boy
Then reign a gi ay-beard king.
Off with the wieken spoils ol age !
Away with learning's crown !
Tear out life's wisdotu-- ritteu fflgc,
And dash its trophic down.
One moment let my life-blood strcaui
From boyhood's fount of flame I
Give me one giddy, reeling dream
Of life all love and fame.
My listening angel heard the prayer,
And calmly smiling, 6aid;
tl If I but touch thy silvered hair,
Thy hasty wish hath seed."
" IJut there i nothing iu thy track
To bid thee fondly btay,
While the swift seasons hurry back
To find the wished-for day?"
Ah, truest soul of womanhood 1
Without thec, what w ere life '!
One bliss I cannot leave behind :
I'll take my precious wife !
The angel to A a sappire pen
And wrote in rainbow dew,
u The man would be a boy again,
And be a husband too !"
" And there is nothiug yet unsaid
Kefore thtf change, appear ?
Ke'jicrnber, tlt.it all 'rifts have fl.d

'iu2 m.iu would by a bey again,
Aud be a father too'."
And so I laughed my laughter woke
The household with its noise
And wrote my dream, wiic morning
broke,
To please the gray-haired boys.

"This lady is a friend of yours, 1 pre

of friends previous to our marriage, was
so vcryextensive that I Lave not even yet l

Mcmwhile Miss Wentworth, who pos

had overcome, in a measure, the embar

At the boarding house where Dave and
