No, Lady—no change can eu.ee leen my need

Thou wear young—there were beauty and I,fe in

Thou wert pure—in thy soul there were fervor

Thou wert foal—there were patiwa god love in
thy sighs.
Aad thy smile was like light on the the waade-

And fairer than eligible beauty, the gleam
Of celesti.l thought that illumined thy youth.
And sweeter than smiles in sif ctoa'e first dream,
Thy ardent attachment to virtue and truth.
There were sacred attraction. the world never

And ties of rndearmeot %tut would not reprove—
From friendship ■ holier sympathy grew,
1 toed thee—because thou wert worthy of love.
The love that is kindled by beauty alone,
May decay with the blossoms that first gale it
birth,
The affection fur wealth has a mercantile tone—
It is earthy and sinks with its object to earth;
But the love of the soul it an weenie divine,
A ray from the fouotaiu of Intellect caught,
Through the darkneu of life it coatisues to shine
Unchanged by earth's changes, it diee but with
thought.
Bed, ad, yrs, and weary, ocy waoderiogs have
bren—
Far, far have i roam'd over dens and earth—
Fall many and dryer were the changes I've sees,
Till sorrow has shaded may spirit of mirth.
The bops, that esu sweetest in life's early day—
The lights that shone brightest, ah ! where are
they now
Stern Time on my Berk locks has painted decay,
And Care, with his iron, has furrow'd my brow.
No more the proud hills of my country i see,
No mon can 1 list to the ley of her streams;
The Thyme and the heather bell bloom not for
me,
Save at times when like spirit' they hallow my
dreams
The visions of youth all are periah'd and gone,
The singe that 1 song are delightful no more ;
The heart and its sympsees callous and lone,
Brood sullenly o'er recollecting of yore.
Yes, yes Angelina, the dream of life's mon,
Ilan been broken and sear'd by a browbeating'
world,
Ey'n sympathy's toff has been chilled into scorn,
And feeling', once gentle are etubborn and cutl'd.
Yet, oft in the moments of sickliest hue,
When the heart's fondest memories bring but
regret,'
I feel, in that lengthy and dreary review,
A something 1 ea000t and would not forget.
We meet not again. But though desert and see
Diode us for life, as they part us to -day ,
Though time and the world should frowo harsher
on me,
Ti11 tee spirit within use should quail in dismay.
Sad memory,'I know es she gazes berlast
When .inking, • wreck, in the common decline,

A gem in that unfadcng l,aAdabip of thine.

BLOOD, BATTERY, AND INTENDED
. MURDER.
A very serious case, and one of almost in-
finite importance to the peace and perma-
nent felicity of the whole world, came, or
rather. we should say, teas brought, before
the Magistrates Last week. Our very tal-
ented friend Squire Giles, her, since bis
arrival in Goderich, occupied n house and
gordsn and "divers other premises," the
property of Squire Longworth, or, rather
we should say, the property of Miss Jane
Longworth. The said Squire Longworth
alledgca that the said Sgstre Giles had never
paid, and newer intended to pay any rent for
the said "diver,' premises,'—that be, the
said Squire Longworth, had at sundry times
and divers places, damned and threatened
with expulsion, flea said Squire Giles, and"
that he, the said Squire Giles, did, on the
°ted occasions, leap about like a bantam
cock, lisping out such provoking language
as the following, "Do you know, sir, who
vou'ro speaking tot Do you know, sir, that
)'m a Gentleman? You better tako caro,
sir, what you say!" and snchoother insulting
sentiments, that he, the said Squiro Long-
worth, was at last provoked to seize the
"goods and chettice" of the said Squire
Giles, end that on entering tho raid "divcre
premises" to prevent the "goods and chat-
tles " from running away after seizure, he,
the Reid Squire Giles, did " therm and then,
fiercely and with murderous intent,' assail
him, the said Squire Longworth, thereby
cueing "greet bodily fear" to him, the
said Hgniro Longworth, and inflicting a
gross violation 00 the peace of our "Sove-
reign Lady the Queen, her Crown and dig'
pity." That be, the said Squire Long.
worth, being a much stronger man than the
said Squire ales, did there and then, and
in defence of his own life, violently push the
said Spero Giles against the latch of the
door, thereby inflicting "divers grievous
wounds and bruises" on the place where
the head of the said Squire Giles should
here been—that a" great effusion of blood "
was the result, and that the said "divers
wounds and benisei v . e.a fly reeembied
the ecratches which a- mother frequently
makes when combing her child's head !

To D. H. 1,111111, Esq.
117The following extract is from a letter of
our friend Murdoch McDonnell, Esq., Perth.—
We take the liberty of publishing it as a very
graphic picture of the indomitable perseverance of
Mr. J. J. E. Linton, with whom, it appears,
Mr. McDonnell had become acquainted in
Montreal :—
" 1 have jest been writing my friend Mcrae
tyre, and have laid to him, that 1 am of opinion,
that our friend Linton d amethieig hand-
reecho
and-
so e for the aervice which he hu rendered the
folks of his county. I was present when (a oar
noble Governer would lay) " ihroagh evil re-
port—through disaster—even through defeat"
he was neither to be put off nor disheartened.—
Ilis attention was unceateng, his effort. aore-
mittiog, and his labors continual. io the House
and out of the Howie, with discouragement,
which no man gut himself would bare hoped to
surmount, (mach len have determined to sur-
mount,) he importuned and labored on --sod by
such determination, and importunity, and labor
only could he have succeeded. Not a word
escaped a member, that he did not note—not a
member left the Ilnu.e, that he did not follow,
to have a word with him, and a pledge from Trim
if he could. And when Malcolm lost his Bill,
and then was no Parliament Ileum to meet in,
and we all thought tfytt Parliament must be ad-
journed, Linton lost not eight of what he come
to Montreal for. Every conversation (even
when all men's minds were tailing them for feu,)
was made by him but an introduction to some
ob tion that tanned the opeaker'a mind to
the claims of the Huron people. to idiort no
man ever better desrned,to succeed. Ilia per-
sonal denying got him what he naked. Con-
gratulation ie but the least that he deserve, of
themen o(" Perth." I surely much mistake
the men, if it is the moat that my friend will
receive of them."
r3" On our first page will be found an
extract from a Lecture on Life Assurance
to which we direct the attention ofonr Rea—
ders. We can easily remember the time
when good men regarded a Life Assurance
Company as a daring and impious attempt
to thwart or at least interfere with the die—
pensations at -providence. The same objec—
tion was urged against the introduction of
almost every discovery and invention that
had • tendency to make men more comfor—
table,from the discovery of vaccination by
Jenner, down to the invention of the Um—
berella ! But happily these days of igno-
rance and unenlightened piety buvo peered
away, and tate philosophy of the present
age teaches us that it is not only'j.*etifiahle,
but a positive duty of every intelligent be-
ing to exercise his intellect, in the discovery
and application of such means as will most
efficiently, render the fawn of nature con-
ducive to leis comfort. Such in fact ie the
proper exercise of reason. And if it is
obvious, and we believe it to, that Life As-
surance Cnmpaniee affird greater facilities
for enabhng a man to secure a competency
for his children, than he can obtain by other
nteane, then wo certainly think that he ie
bound in duty to avail himself of the great-
est facilities for securing such a 'audible
object. It will bo seen by a notice ;it our
advertising columns that (ale Agent for *ho
Canada Life Assurance Company, in this
place, is JAMBS WAT °`', Eo,., from whom
all necessary information on the subject
may bo obtained.

Sir, -1 consider it • duty to addre.e the follow-
ing lines to you, which, do me the favor to insert
in your next issue.
A good deal has been said and writtlen by the
two adverse parties in Canada about procuring
signatures to the different Petitions and Address-
ee that have lately been got up. 1 beg to make
the following remarks on the suhlect.
Oa my way home from Goderich the last time
I was there, a friend informed me he had seen my
n ame tumefied to the Petition to her Majesty to
recal our Governor, at the same time remarking,
he was rather astonished to ace it there, as he had
heard Inc sly,his Excellency had acted most
kindly to a number of our family. I denied that
1 had written my name to the Petition, or had
authorized any one to do se,—on the contrary, 1
had been asked to sign the Petition to areal the
Governor, and had refused. I then at once wrote
• letter to the Earl of Eight. mentioning the cit-
enmstances, and pledged him the word of *gen-
tlemen, that if my name was on the Petition to
weal hie Ercelleney, it wssnever written by me,
or soy member of my family, thee it must have
been put there in the name way an my freed Mr.
Mountcutle'e name was inserted, without my
knowledge or consent. The nest day at dinner -
1 mentioned this menu to my family ; ridge of
my astonishment and vexation, when one of my
reneger sons aid, perhaps it was his name they
meant : that he had signed some etitinn, at the
time ant lheneing tapir(rr tree he had se-
rer read it, nor had he heard it , bot had par:
his name dawn as a parry req. ing him to do
see. 1 think it very wrong that boys .houll be
asked to sip any thing of the kind. 1 never lied
a oedema quarrel with asj of my children till this
happened—in extenuation of hie eondnet, my
son told este that 1 bed myself eigned the Petition
to the governor sot to allow the- Indemnity Bill
to pass, nd that he had Marl me any, that gen-
erally these Potting were a mere m mer n(

er, who witnessed it—thoigh, porhap.,
with fashegs of sorrowf"1 forebodings by
flee dejected followers of Teryiem. About
half past one, the officers of tie day Woo
to marshal the immesh Walk collected in
the Market Square, into i proceeeiuo; and
. bo►tly afterwards, the cavalcade been to
rooms teemed' the Waberloo road. As (pc

About half—past three o'clock, the ravel -
cede started on its return to the Town ;
arc.l some idea may he formed of the impo-
sing a. d magnificent spectacle i1 presentn4
from the fact that it extended nearly two
utiles in length—and was interspersed
throughuct with beautiful Aap-, banner►,
and ornamental devicce in flowers snit ever-
greens. It was indeed a noble eteht—a
triumphal procession of triumphant Refor-
mers—and it was risible enough that the
mon composing that vast al.emh!agn well
understood the importance of the glorious
triumph they had met to celebrate.—the
victory their own untiring energy and per-
severance had achieved.
The procession entered Guelph about
pant four o'clock ; and a port of it formed a
square in the Market place, from the Centro
of which, Mr. Ferguseoo, M. P.. the Hon.
Adam Ferguson ; W. Notman, Esq , and
several other gentlemen aaldreeaed tho as-
semblage. Their speeches were received
with deafening applause. Three tremen-
dous cheers were given for the Queen, and
the eamo for Lord Elgin, Tho bands then
played the National Anthem—and the hour
drawing on at which the 1)ioneP was to take
place, the asseniti'itoe gradually disperse.(.
In conseq°enee of the shortness of the
time betwcoi the dinner and tho bonrofour
going to press to—Jay, wo cannot do more
than just allude to it in titin week's impres-
sion ; but we shall give a full report of the
speeches in our next issue; and recommend
all our friends to give them a careful pent -
eat. It has sold"m fallen to Our lot to hear
so many talented and useful speeches deliv-
ered heretofore upon any similar occasion ;
and wo would wish them to be well under-
stood by all who have at heart the cause of
Reform and social progression.
Wo may just add, that nearly 500 indivi-
duals sat down to dinner ; and that the
substantial and excellent fare served up by
Mr. . Pipe, did him great credit, and gore

THE DYING LADY.
a0 tLLUSCIIATIOR 0r 11011.11 STnr•Tttr.
A cloud of woe seems hoe'ring nigh,
A weary gloom hinge on each brow,
From ev'ry bosom there's • sigh,
Sorrow alone seems living now
The whispering tone—the tearful eye,
Speak of some toed one doom'd to clic.
There is a wail on every tongue,
Oo every feature there is ssdnea,
The matron and the maiden young,
Alike have lost their tone. of gladness,
v'n men look grace and ping their hoed,
As if mane valu'd friend were dead.
The wise, the wealthy, and the poor,
The learned and ignorant all wait
la deep sospense, aruund the door,
To learn that favorite Ledy'e fate—
And fervent breathings snaron high,
Praying, in faith, elm may not die.
She is belov'd—and young—and fair—
Rtch, generous, gay, and free from pride—
iler heart still felt the ou'east's prayer,
Her hand the wants of age ,applied :
Thr village Inv'! her as its own
Aristech end mother both in one.
Humanity ! I love thee s1i11,
Thy sympathies are soft and pure ;
They blend with every ;lumen ill,
And-wceten where they cannot rum ;
Methinks i feel the halm anw shed
Around that sickly Lady's !red.
Methinks I see upon the brow,
Of him who mourns that Lady's pain,
The solace of pure poets that now
Bid bie hope on—and now, again,
They whisper to her weeping bout
" Surely thy mother will otw die."
And he who Rhes beneath his es: e,
The nun and the eagle's brood,
bice hear, well pleased, the fervent prayer
Breathed forth in virtue's humblest mood,
An 1. in his mersy, msy comply
Aad may, " The lady shall not die !"
