"How reciotH are the menentos ot
love! How tritiiug often and how urTccw
ing in their simplicity a ring a lock
of hair a sprig of myrtle or a crushed
rlowcr. when gazed "on in lands far dis-
tant from the giverasaurms importance
beyond their real worth. Will any one
smile that I touch upon this topic!"
"He jests at scars who never felt
wound"
It is natural for every sensitive heart
to "place a high value an the gifts of re
membrance and those tokens which are
nearly valueless in themselves bfjcom
tho most endeared when transmuted In
the Midas of sentiment then it is thc
aro released from thai dross in which
the vulgar view them enveloped and
to their possessors seem gorgeous as
go'd. -
This feeling of estimation for 'souve-
niers' may bo found among all classes
of life and in all states of society. It
is as universal ns light wherever the
human heart throbs to the touch of pas-
sion wherever rotinement had insinu-
ated itself into the bosom vou will find
this same devotion to the emblems of
hours that have passd away. There
is no intellect so strong -no genius so
towering .as to look on them lightly
and philosophy though it may be chill
as snow will be warmed to yieldingness
by these tiny messengers of the Past.
Thev tell us too a plainly of dark eyes
and lips of velvet richness too audibly
of brows that glittered and tones that
burst in music for the fountain-waters
of the spirit t remain untroubled by
their spoils He who 'contemns them
or the feeling which makes them dear
can never have enjoyed those enchant-
ments of which they stand to delicate
hieroglyphis.
Such affection for the gifts of'Wo-man-HJear
woman" is not incompa-
tible with the possession of all which
composes manliness. Truo sentiment
derogates not from tho man; and it. en
ters largely into tire character of ths
gentleman the scholar and the cour-
tier Where is courage more prominent
than in tho protection of innoconce and

One corner of my trunk ia dedicated
to these winning trifles and often to
while away a listless hour I look them

ing her beads The other day I dis-
covered a handkerchief which had been
riven yoarsago by a bi-aUtiful woman

I thought it was lost and the sudden
sight of it.and her own sweet name in

Ease if thou canst tnis bosom of its care
And let remembrance soothe the bro-
ken hearted;
Thou art a pleasant link on memory's

slumber;
Callin g to life the Past all fresh again
With pleasures more than human
. thought can number.
In Estetle's bower by love's own magic
made
Which the fair Ellen of old days re.
. seinbfed
I'vel seen thee cheek the diamond tsar
Which tell of shame vows of pass-
ion broken.
Was not an herald of.the bosoms fears.
Butof its burning love a silent token;
And when at sundown the damp wooda
wore hush
And into twilight soft the day had
faded
Me thinks by thee full many a rose-
leaf blush '
Upon her check from my warm gaze
was shaded" !.'.
Icarsed thee then but oh I bleS

A modest gift from her own precious

To kesp tn'iStmoryhcf'wcIcblBO vow
And foedtha love that in my bosom
lingers T
Once thou wert waved to her in motk
furawell '
And oncotoo truly whenjthe waves
were breaking
Around my dancing barque with foam
and swell
While every fibre in my heart was
achiog:
That hour is past .yet still I hung the
chain
Which bound me ia its links a happy
lover;
I cannot hope to meet her er again
For fate hath maac ms o'er the world
