“THOU HAST WOVEN THE SPELL.” BEY GEO. P. MORRIS.

Thou hast woven the spell that hath bound me, Through all the sad changes of years;

And the smiles that | wore when I found thee, Have faded and melted in tears.

Like the poor wounded fawn from the mountain, That seeks out the elear silver tide,

I have lingered in vain at the fountain Of hope—with a shaft in my side.

Thou hast told me that love’s rosy fetters A pang from the thorns may impart; That the coinage of vows and of letters, Comes not from the mint of the heart. Like the lone bird that flutters her pinion, And warbles in bondage her strain, I have struggled to fly thy dominion, But find that the struggle is vain.

DISAPPOINTED GALLANTS.

A gallant young cavalry officer, stationed not a hun- dred miles from Clonmel, was returning to his quarters on escort duty, on a certain day, inthe early part of last week. His party were proceeding quietly along the road, when the officer rode up toa remarkably fine, intelligent, well-dressed young woman, who was pro- ceeding inthe same direction as the military heroes. The officer engaged in conversation with the sprightly fair one, and he was so “taken” with her engaging manners and appearance, that he dismounted and walked by her side, until they reached the aventie gate leading to the residence of the Rev. Mr. Heffernan, parish priest of Clerihan.

‘ The—liar 2 exclaimed the man of Indiana, looking behind him, ‘he told me he was only shot in the leg!

By an amusing error (of the press, of course,) which occurred in a late edition of Davidson’s popular English grammar, the variations of the verb to chide were given thus: ‘ Present infinitive, tochide; past finitive, I chid; past infinitive,to have children” An Irish paper ac- counts for the mistake by saying that the compositor must have been a bachelor who had recently got married.

‘It would be impossible for me to accept your kind ceeetion, as I am on duty,” replied the gallant son of

ars.

‘Well, sir” said she, ‘ you will confer a high compli- ment on me by accepting my invitation to dine with us on to-morrow evening ; and as my father, who is advanced in years, is very particular, don’t be later than five o'clock,’

‘May I bring a friend with me, inquired the officer.

* Your friend shall be as welcome as yourself, was the BR

aa answer.

_ The parties separated; and the next evening, about five o’clock, two martial-looking youths might be seen wending their way towards the hospitable residence of

D. O’NieELL having studied his basiness attentively, and adopted the most approved and modern style of workmanship, trusts that he will be favoured with the patronage of the pub- lic, and will endeavour to merit it by diligence and punctuality in the discharge of his orders.

They arrived at the door—the double tantarara is answered—the visitors walk into the parlour, and see before them, not the ‘ object of their fond wishes,’ but Father Heffernan himself, with Spectacles on nose, en- gaged reading a work on dogmatic theology.

‘Well, gentlemen, said his reverence, ‘can I do any- thing for you?’ ;

‘We come to dinner,’ was the answer.

‘To dinner! who invited you ?” said the astonished priest;‘Iam done dinner this hour,

‘Your daughter,’ was the reply.

Farm for Sale. INE Miles from Charlottetown, with a long

lease, and situated in the old and pleasant settlement of

Covehead Road. The usual custom in advertisements of this kind, is to designate all Jands under tilage, as being in a high state of cultivation: in the presentinstance, the growing crops consisting of about 15 acres of wheat, oats and barley, 3 of po- tatoes and 9 of hay, very little inferior to the crops arownd Charlottetown. 6 acres of fallows preparing for wheat next

ear, 8 acres of grass depastured two years. 10 acres have

een reclaimed from a wilderness state within the last four years, and 40 acres more can be, at the trifling expense of about eight shillings per acre. The house and buildings are not new, bet they are warm and convenient. There is also a large and productive garden, seeured by a dyke, and a paddock of 2 acres of permanent pasture, similarly fenced, with a neve: failing stream of water running throughout. About 500 longers will complete the enclosure of the whole. farm. A diary car be produced, showing the management of every acre of the cultivated land for the last four years; therefore, even a stran ger to the soil of the Island, wil! be enabled to judge of wha: should and what should not be done hereafter. ‘This properiv embraces many rare advantages, with only one material disad vantage, e. i., the rent is two shillings per acre; yet itis now cheaper than many farms, even were they free from rent alto

ether. . Further particulars can be known by applying to THOMAS PREEDY, Keeper of the Colonial Building, Charlottetown
