PORTR THE PLEDGE OF LOVE, This band, which bound thy yellow hair, Is mine, sweet girl! thy pledge of love; It claims my warmest, dearest care, Like relies left of saints above. Oh! I will wear it next my heart; ’Twill bind my soul in bonds to thee: From me again ‘twill ne'er depart, But mingle in the grave with me. The dew I gather from thy lip Is not so dear to me as this; hat I but for a moment sip, And banquet on a transient bliss: This will recall each youthful scene, E’en when our lives are on the wane; The leaves of love will still be green, When memory bids them bud again. Oh! little lock of golden hue, Tn gently waving ringlet curl'd, By the dear head on which you grew, T would not lose you for the world, Not though 9 thousand more adorn The polish'd brow where ence you shone, Like rays which gild a cloudless morn, Beneath Columbia's fervid zone, Select Viterature. “A GILOST (TRANSLATED FROM THE YRENCH BY 3s, ANNIE T. WOOD.) In 1859, Thad hired at Verrieres,a charm- ing village coquetti@lly situated midway on one of the wooded slopes of the forest which bears its name,a siinple cottage where [ designed to spend the summer with my wile and presumptive heir, a pretty and plump bey of a year old, raised in the country, and who, thanks to the fresh air, exercise, and healthy life of the fields, did, Lassnre you, credit to hisnurse. My cottage consisted of a square pavilion covered with tiles, composed of a base- ment and one story, and situated at the extremity of the village ina retired) lano Icading to the country i me indi- cated: “ Road lo the Vineyard.” An oblong garden, of abont an acre, inclosed by walls garnished with trellises, and whose principal entrance was adorned by an iron gato with pillars, the only am- bitious decoration of this modest retreat, lay before the cottage, which was built at the extremity of the inelosure, and reached by a gravelled walk, bordered on cach side with fruit trees in full bearing. Be- fore the house stood a group of Bengal rose ind on the right and leit, fronting side porches, each lighted by two windows only, were grassy ]vwns of nearly four yards square, which had first attracted me, heeause T saw there a natural carpet very well calculated for the sports of my newly weaned baby, just beginning to learn to use his teeth and limbs, The whole, furnished comfortably, not Juxuriously, but with everything necessary in country life, had been let to me for five hundred franes, by the praprietor, M. Roux, ex-apothee Rue Montmiurt the inventor of a celebrated dentif: The young are not difficult; Twas young, then, and had one conclusive reason for seeing life through my colored spectacles. United to a charming woman whom I idolized and who rendered me happy, | dreamed of perfect love, like an Arcadian shepherd, and these five words, a collage ond her heart, the eternal romance of youth, would haye led me to the end of the world, When spring came, and the lilaes, of which there were whole thickets in our inclosure, blossomed, arrived a fortunate couple to take pos on of our Tittle domain, my wife having never yet seen the house or garden; they pleased her, perhaps for reasons similar to mine. She was kind enough to find everything to her taste, even the gardener, expressly in- eluded in the inventory of fixtures, and who was not, to tell the truth, the least useful article of furniture. Paid by the proprictor, all his duties were comprised in taking care of the gar- den, showing the cottage to visitors, and airing the apartments by oceasionally opening the windows, If the situation was not very lucrative, it was not dificult to fill. So M. Roux had contided it to the tirst one who came’to hand, that is to say to asimple peasant of the neighborhood, the inhabitant of one of the only two houses which now stood on the road to the vineyard Llondas St. Foy, with an air as clownish as that witty singer, Gilkin, with his lone, st t locks, his pug nose, his porcelain blue eyes, and fat, projecting checks, slightly ruddy, would have figured ad- mirably as at oh the stage. A genu- ine peasant of théepera, head both the physique and the character ot the situation, So when, in the intervals of liberty allowed him by the culture of his fields, the pro- duce of which he sent regularly to market, according to the invariable custont of farmers in the neighborhood of Paris, he had time to come and put sticks fo our peas, water our strawberry plints, hoe our potatoes, and weed our earrots, which happened two or three times a week, and took about half a day each time; en those days, Whoever had come to pay a visit to my wile or to myself and looked for us in the house, would certainly have lost his trouble, Arm in arm, and braving the hottest sun, madam, with her parasol and her pretty scarlet sun-bonnet, so becoming to her twenty years, and I, with an immense straw hat, worthy of a pure blooded Ain- eriean planter, closely followed Gilbert, The honest youth had scarcely arrived, when, proud of having a gardener, we went, like genuine Bosotians that we were, to sit beside him while he worked, with spadeor watering-pot in hand, and you should see what a mischievous pleasure we then took in overwhelming him with a multitude of questions as absurd as his replies; in hearing him reason gravely on the rain and fine weather; discuss the in- fluence of heat or cold; describe his hopes or fears relative to the approaching har- vost; curse the race of fexcs and weasels, fs ¢ nocturnal marauders, not waiting for license from the vintagers to ravage their best vines; in fine, to study in all its phases this honest villager, who, having: arrived at the age of thirty, had aw child, paid his taxes, figured on festiy al the citizen militia, and had never in his life, except in one excursion to Versailles, when he saw the great fountains play, lost sight of the steeple of his commune, What a curious type! what an excellent nad kind nature! how many amusing sim- plicities, how many charming stories he had to tell! the foolish laughter which snddenly seized us in the midst of these stories, to the great astonishment of our countryman, alway s retaining his im- perturbable sang froid, and looking at us with open mouth, unable to comprehend explosions of gayety ! We had hardly been installed in our rustic village « week, when, one fine morning, as we were making a bouquet in amagnilicent border of violets framing one of the green Jawns beneath our win- dows, and in the corner of which figured a well half hidden by a thicket of laburn- ums, my wile said to me :— “Do you know, my love, what dis- pleases me here, and what I would cer- tainly have remoyed this very moment if it depended only upon me ?” Without being a fine lady, my wife is her little superstitions. She believes in the influence of Friday and of the number thirteen; an overturned salt-cellar, two knives crossed aifect her; a broken mirror would make her sick; at evening, the murmur of running water, the mysterious whispering of the poplars, vivid lightning, and the noise of the thunder produce an effect which she cannot avoid; adorable weakness, of which, in my opinion, I should do very wrong to complain, “Whatis it2? asked [of my wife. “That disagreeable weeping willow, which stands in the corner of the lawn on the right of the well,” replied she: “And why so?” returned I, «You know very well,” said she tome, “that I cannot endure those trees, even in the painting; an ordinary willow can be passed by in’ spite of the romance of Othello, but these weeping willows—ch, no! [ cannot bear them.” “T understand you, dear friend; but we have no occasion for grief, the child is well, and we are both cheerful enough.” Come, you jest when the gravest sub- jects are concerned. You undoubtedly have not forgotten the origin of my anti- pathy for that hateful tree, which should never be admitted into pleasure-grounds | On passing the shop of Lemounier, that famous artist in hair, and examining: the fvames exposed in his window, have you not seen that melincholy shrub figure, heside yews and eypresses, and shading with its tearful tresses these mournful words: He wasa qood husband and father. Yo our angel! Jiis av tree suited only to a cometry, and iding here on this turf, it annoys, it worries me.” “What a foolish idea,” said IT; ‘ mean- while I will promise to say a word on the subject to Gilbert the gardener; we will see when he comes whether he may not be able to remove it.” At evening, when Madame Gilbert re- turned from the fields bringing on her shoulder her cow's supper, I invited her fo rest a moment as she was passing the rarden gate, and informed her, that she it mention it to her husband, of the desire expressed by my wile. ‘+ Madame is in the right,” said she te me, ‘and she is not mistaken in her sup- positions. They took very good care not to tell you when you hired the house; the proprietor, M. Roux, forbade us to do so, hut there is indeed some one buried there, and, with her apprehensions, your wile is nearer the truth than you thought for. That turf aud weeping willow conceal a tomb!” You will easily imagine how astonished [was at this unexpected revelation. We had come into the country to avoid the gloomy sights of the city, especially to flee from the spectacle of all those hua- man miseries so little caleuluted to divert even the most philosophical, in that vast ant-hill of which the great Parisian society is composed, And we had encountered precisely what we wished to avoid; we were, without having suspected it, the guests of Death; our garden was but a cemetery, our villa afoneral lodge standing in the midst of it, like those inhabited by the hired guardi- ans of our burying-grounds, When our child, trying his new-born powers, was rolling about this thick turf, so green, so studded with white daisies, O horror! O snerilegious prolanation! it was over a sepulehre, over a cold corpse that, with his rattle in his hand, this dear little eroa- five was pla You will imagine that nothing more was necessary, t to speak of the water of the well from which we drank, and for the suspicious taste of which T thought T could not account, to induce us to remove immediately * But this ad fhith on the part of the propri ‘ d Lto Madame Gilbert. ‘16 is suffi to cancel the of Be ent hargain, for people will not endure such im} ions. Whois buricd there?” ad- ded Ts ‘a criminal, a suicide! a miser ant who died without confession and could not be buried in eonseerated eros ‘Not exactly,” replied ny interloeuter, ‘it is the former proprietress of the payil ion, Madame V——, the aunt of amor painter, | haye been told, whose fine battle pieces Gilbert saw at the muascum at V sailles one day when the grand fountains were playing.” Has this person been dead Jon About five years, 1 think. s, five years at the approaching plum season.” “And why was she not buried, like other people, in the village cemetery 2” Madame Gilbert turned, and casting a slight glance to the right and left as if to see whether any one could hear what she was about to say, replied :— “Madame V was a strong-minded woman, a philosopher, I have been told. You know there are often such in- artists’ families. She died at the age of eighty-six. In her youth, before the first revolution, she had been acquainted with many cele- brated writers whom she often quoted and whose works she knew by heart; one M. Voltaire, who was a native of the village of Chatenay,neur here ; a certain Rousseau, Messieurs Dident, de’Alembert, aud many days in a Gaulish blouse in the ranks of very impressible in her nature, and has|s others whose names I do not remember, although they were ineessantiy in her mouth. An amiable little woman she was, too, lively, witty, agreeable;; charitable to the poor, and much beloved by our pea- sants, Whom she never hesitated to assist by her counsels or her purse, But) when she died, seareely bent by age, still coquet- tish, reading the newspaper daily without spectacles, it was yondor, there, beneath that arbor of honey-suckles, that she seat- ed herself every morning; and 1 see her still, with her white sun-bonnet and farth- ingale of puce-colored silk, she wished to remain faithful to her principles,and as she did not believe in much ofanything, never went to mass, entertained the curate only, as she laughingly said, in hopes to convert him, left a will in which, by a formal clause, she requested to be buried in her own garden, beside these eglantines which she had herself set out and whose roses she loved to cultivate. Her heirs fulfilled her last wishes, and when Mr. Roux bought the property the obligation was imposed on him that he should respect this litle-nook of land. ‘Well, it is a disagreeable condition, and if the house and ‘den were to be sold again [would not buy them at any price.” Meanwhile, Lenjoin it upon you not to say a word of all this tomy wife, 1 know her; if she should cver Jearn the least thing which could contivrm her in her picions, she would not remain at Ver- riers one hour, As for me, Lam going to Paris to have vtulk with the proprietor.’ As 1 was going without even returning to the house to engage a place in the car- ringe of Barbu, & with ten its whieh then made reguka tips to the city, chance willed ii that 1 should encounter on the way Father Michal, our baker, the deputy-mavor ofthe commune, Tnatursl- ly repeated to him iy dissatisfietion and the step L was about to t: Father Michal was an excelent man; he held me in great esteem, because that be- fore having estublished myselfat Verviers, Lhad often made him a present of the game I had killed in that vicinity. ‘It is useless for you to go to Paris,’ suid he to ine; fon Saturday hast, at the request M. Roux himself, the maneipal council de- cided to exhume Madame VY——, and trans- fer her remains to the neighboring cene- tery. You will imagine that the interests of the proprietor would prevail over the posthumous request of an old woman, ‘Phe ceremony will take place at noon to- morrow. You will therelore do well to take your wile to Paris this very evening, and not wn till the day alter, Jimmediately returned to, Gilbert and gave him my instructions, Caleuluing thatan absence of twenty-four hours would be very short, Lresolyed (th® wis Mon- day) not to return till the following Satur day. It was agreed betwecr the zartten- er and myself that he should remoye, with the greatest care, wl the turf coyeting the rave, replace it as earefally, léveiliag it so that his iubor should not appear, Vive minutes afterwards Thad invented a plausible excuse for the necessity of an immediate departure, which y nothing less than a serious indisposition of my mother, and at four o'clock we left the house, taking with us ong entire §unily. After passing a few days if the capital, we returned to our Jitthe villa, In the mean time Thad been officially intormed that the removal of the body had taken place, and the turf so ingeniously replaced o leave no trace of the operation. The letter, Which came from Father Michael, announced to me at the same time, by way of postscript, that my presence on the fol- lowing Saturday was indispensable at Ver- riers, us the moon would then be st the full, and a whole family of weasels had been discovered, whose urgent destruction im- periously called for my devotions, that is to say, some hours watching in the forest at night, Atnine o'clock, therefore, on the even- ing of my return, T set out in seareh of my weasels, ‘Phe weather was magnighcent and the moon at the tull. No night could haye been more propitous, nevertieless ny vigils were vain, for no sight of a weasel appeared, and after waiting til daylight I returned home. I was but twenty paces from the house, whose white walls, illuminated by the rays of the moon, stood out from the dark ground of the thickets behind it, and was about to turn around the group of Bengal roses decorating its facade, when, casting my eyes mechanically toward the six feet of turf which, three days beiore, still cov. ered the sepulehre of Maduue V——, I remained petrilied, immoyable, dumb with fear and horror, Beneath the weeping willow which for- merly shaded the tomb, stood, Wrapped in its shroud, the spectre of the departed. — Tt was not an optical Hiusion, nor a hy i- nation of my disturbed mind. ‘Phe pian- tom seemed to be awaiting me, wa. ing its ans as if trying to disengage them: from iis white shroud; and while its head reach- ed to the uppermost branches of the tree, its feet, nimubly itating, hovered over, miher than touched the ground. ‘They seemed to be making ineficetual efforts to detateh themselves cutively and advance lo ect me, A shudder of indeseribable terror ran ever ine, and though not cow ardiy by na ture, a cold sweat stood ou tay forehead. [tried to speak, but could notutter a word ; fivied to walk, but my limbs refused to obey my will, At last, imagining mysell to be the vietim of some trick, 1 adjured the spirit to speak, threatening to Hire upon itun it answered my chiulk Lhad scarcely uttered this threat wher a fash of lightening, the first indication of an approacaing storm, filuminated the whole garden, aid amid a gust ot wind, which cuveloped me in a whirlwind ot dost, the phantom disappeared. ‘This time i could vet doubt that it was the shade of Madame V » suddenly hing be- tore my eyes, in order to save Wie a second profunation wore sacriligvous than the first. Shall I confess it? T crossed myself, and cleaving in a few leaps without daring to turn my eyes in the direction of the well, the distance which still seperated me from the pavillion, L .ushed, more dead than alive, into cle bedchamber where my wile was quictly reposing. IT was very cueful not to awaken her, and especially not to tell her ot any noc. turnal adventure; but a violent clap of thunder rendered useless the precautions 'which I had taken to make as little noise las possible on ontering. ‘Ah! it is you my love,’ said she to me, * You did well to return; I have been op- pressed by a bad dream; light the candle, beg, and see if all is right about the house.’ The night was terrible, and [never knew amore frightful storm, The disorder of the elements impressed me the more vivid« ly that, in my state of mind, it seemed to he in consequence of my vision ; and when day appeared and the tempest abated, I had not even then succeeded in closing my eyes, “T arose and dressed to take a turn in the garden; but at the moment of crossing the threshold of the door, I was so over- come that I retraced my steps, resolved not to visit the theatre of action until after breakfast, my wife and myseif could go together and see the ravages of the’storm, As the cook came to pour out tea for us in the dining-room, Rosulie, the child's nurse, whose first duty every morning was to fill the fountain, eutered. She held in her hand a bundle of wet linen, *Ah, madame, I have been fortunate,’ said she to my wile. ‘Look, I brought these from the well in drawing my first bucket of water.’ ‘What are they? asked my wife. ‘The clothes of the little one which I hung out to dry last night on the weepin willow at the edge of the well; the and blew so in the night that they fell in; for- tunately they caught on the handle of the lower bucket.’ In spite of myself I burst into a fit of mad laughter, to the great amazement of my wife, who vainly questioned me on the subject of iny unaccountable hilarity, Thad the secret of the enigma, But I will confess, and anore than one strong mind would doubtless have shared my weakness, I believed for an instant in ghosts, SABLATH OBSERVANCE, The nations of the earth which now most respect the Sabbath, and most discourage inLor, pastimes, and mere amusements, during its sacred hours, are the freest, the happiest. the most prosperous, and the furthest advanced in progress of art, mans wheture and inyention; and that city, town, village or community, of any Sab- bath-respecting nation, which best keeps the Sabbath as a day of rest for body and mind, is the most noted for all that is orderly, lawabiding and substantial, and that fimily, of any Sabbath-loving corn- munity, which bést observes hy quiet, by religious worship, and the performance of Bible duties, is most substantial and re- spected and inble in that community, while any individual member of a Sabbath- keeping family who most spends the hours of that sacred day in m tion, in wor- ship, and prayerful re: f the Scrip. ture, will uniformly be found to follow a blimcless life, to possess the respect and contidence of the whole community; and all men will know where to look for him, however evil m be the times—to wit; on the side of justice and right, and liberty and law, and Sterling principle. No man ein be so blind as not to know that the Sabbath is least respected where there is most of all that is vulgar and pro- tune, and abandoned; and those who are the least for it are literally thieves and murderers, drunkards, _ prize-fighters, horse-raccrs, and the utterly depraved of all classes; and that these, the wicked, “do not live half their days." As a means, then, of longevity, of worldly pro- sperity, of individual elevation of charac- ter, every citizen will not only do what is possible in himsell to secure a religious observance of the Sabbath day, will net only countenance and encourage others to do the same, but will volunteer his pe- euniary aid to further these things in the community around him,—J/all’s Journal, are about making their purchases will yomeniber that the wide-awake ress men of their community are the ones of whom they can make the best pur- chases, and secure the best goods, and the i le rule by which to discover this of men, is to look into the columns of your newspaper. Liye business men know the value of advertising, and always protit by it, while the antiquated fossils, who are content to see the same goods upon their shelves for half a century, and to see no new customers in the course of their existence, put the few dollars. they should spend in advertising in their pock- ts, keep their goods over from year to id lose the reward of a lively busi uv anid a rapid renewal of stock which is the invariable result of advertising. Business men) who advertise are always up with the times, They have the pret- tiest goods and latest patterns, and in con- sequence of the beavy trade which adver- tisements bring them, ean sell ata lower niirgin than those who depend upon chance er avecident to inform customers where they do business, or what they haye to sell.—aAlways deal with Advertisers, Usprncrapeatre IG — From an article hy a London Vines reviewer we make the following extract:—There is a peculiar flavor to a Uni Y Man about undergraduates ignorance, Judicious se- lections from Little-go-papers are a favor- ile source of laughter.
