Art thou waking, fair Maria ?
Dust thou hear the tenpe t.welling?
Da°t thou hear the forese1Qicee
Round thy father's lonely dws 7
With love's sweetest, softest longings,
As the bee with limey laden,
Thro' the fields and thro' the woodlands
l bars come to thee, dear Maiden.
Rise and let me i., Maria,
For the Medi are moaning dressy;
Dearest, there is room beside thee—
( am cold awl nal sod weary.
'Tu the ghostly boar of midnight,
Loud the Autumn winds am howling—
And, like wolves upon a foray,
Theo' the sombre forest prowling
O'er the skeleton of Summer,
Prowling with a hunger savage,
Leaving scarce •single leaflet
To relate the tale of ravage.
Round me from the weeping maple
Still the yellow learn are falling,
I. community of sorrow,
Each to each u sadly calling.
Hark, those strange and startling voices—
Dom thou hear that dismal groaaicg
'TWO'. spirit of the forest
OW W death of Summer moaning.
la the fitful lightning gleaming
See the wave of Heron dashing;
Or, thro' darkness thick and gloomy,
Bear its billows' ceaseless plaahiog.
Far across its heaving bosom,
Still the winds are acidly sweeping;
Like the jesloue fear*, Maria,
O'er thy doubting bosom creeping.
Think not 1 have come.; my Tree -love,
Like the winds in raving mednem ;
itather lice the birds of Summer.
Innocent in sportive gladness.
O'er me clouJa are darkly frowning,
Sell they stand in gloomy column;
Or like battled hosts in motion,
Far they roll in vasty volume.
Now then. form in line of battle
Fiercely flares the flashir-g lerin,
Followed by the crashing thunder
Molltag through the arch of heaves.
Art thou waking, lair Maria?
that thou hear the tempest swelling?
Dost thou bear the forest voice
Houma thy father'. lonely dwelling?
With lore's sweetest, softest longings,
As the bee with honey laden,
Titre' the fields and Aro' the woodlands
I hare come to thee Dear Maiden.

PIRACY ON LAKE ERIE.
From Detroit and Buffalo papers w
gather a number of rather incoherent pa
ticulan with regard to alleged acts
piracy on La keErie by Confederate ref
gees from Canada. The report is that o
the 20th lost two small Amertoan sten
ers were captured and destroyed by a
partySoutherners.—
of about90 or 40 Southee.—
When the fact of the case appear we
sha#give them publicity.
They weighed 110 Ibs. each. Dr.
Rosa McDou.
gull had, hung from a neat frame, a sam-
e ple of very fine tobacoo growu in hi, ger-
r- den. Mr. was the principal exhibitor
of lin &tweet,, most of our other great amateur
gardeoerwllaving,from some cause or other,
n 'I refused to enter the lists. We are heartily
m- sorry to ace such a fouling, and hope it
will be got over before another season. If
there are wrongii is connection with un,•
exhibition, that is no reason why it must
always be so. Let thepe be no secession,
for pity sake)
The articles of domestic manufaetur,.
such as blanket, flannels, 3c, was highly
o creditable. The show of Dairy produce
was particul-.rly fine. There were some
45 entries of fresh and salt butter, all of
superior quality and some well worthy of
a place in the Provincial Exhibition. The
cheea° was also very good, indeed.
Mr. Horton exhibited sett of very
elegant silver -mounted harem.
