Tl.e soul, within her trcmCling lute,
, Was but the melody of sound:
The soul within her breksi, when mute, ,
Breathed a much tweeter music round;
fat richer light ham s on her cheek,
And thought sits throned upon her brow;
In looks o( lo,e her blue eyes speak,
For trmh and feeling rest there now,
But While she sints of love,
A silver light spreads o'er-her formj .
She seems an angel from abovei
Sent down (0 calm a rising storm)
t'pnn lier lips the soft woids hung,
As gentle hee would hang on flowers,
And melody rolled from her tongue,
Such ns is heard 'mid orange bowers.
I gnred on her in thnt fair
Al on a being besh from heaven;
And listened with a wild delight,
Such as to seraph song is given;
And et 1 feared some fleicy cloud
Would veil her from the radiant moon,
Or in an unseen spiiit slirotid, ';
Her form would vanish a 1 loo soon.
Oh, who lias ever loved, but felt gj
That the loved idol must dicayf . 4
So feared I, lest her f..iin should melt, ;
With those soil moon beams, quite away. I

What rapture 'twas to fell her iu.nr.
And listtn lo the aofl, deep lone,

Soft smiles on vanished faces.
As one by one our guests deport,
Lefi w ith r in-'iubrauce only, ,
We scarcely sigh that lime flits by,
And leaves us sad and loueh.
Hope's morning breaks, and joy awakes,
Life's gloomy page to brighten,
As on our quiet, silent hearlh, '

Then on ti e pillow softly sinks
The head with vision teeming,
And many an Easleru pageanl duals

In 1012 the waraof Europe, and the
gressions of the belliger nla upon our com

rendered it impossible for nn Intelligent and
patriolic man to lie indifferent to public aT
lairs. Par ies were Organized too upon is
sues that appealed irresistibly to young men
of talents and ardent lemperumenl. For
t1 e first time Mr. Weba'er eniered into po
liiical life, and was elected to the lower
house in Congress, as llie candidate of thi'.
Federal parly. He took his seat in that
hoily. as a repre entAtive from New Hamp

then blazed in the House, whose greater
lights were Clay, Calhoun, Loundi'.s, Pick
'eti'p; an'l Forsyth, besides oilier luminaries
of sc i ready less magnitude. The Country
was a second time measurinu; its ireuittn
with that power, whose morning drum beat,
following the 6Un. nnd keeping Company
with the hours, circles the eath daily with
one continuous and unbroken strain of he
martial airs of England." The discussions
in Congress were exciied and anxious and
able. Mr. Webster nt once.iook his place

and was at once accorded a p..9ilion among
the foretnovt.
