 EsEDEX,a< AZ.

From the Bardstoaon Herald. THE EVENING STAR.
A lady's voice cried ss sec the Vest

 Behold what beauty glimmers there' looked--the sun had sunk to rest,

 And glorious shone the Eyening Star. Bright emblem of eternal peace,

 High in the canopy she's reared And waited by her soothing breeze,

 The notes of earth are softly heard. Balmy star, that modest giows

 Along the gIittering vault of Heaven. To thee, when dusky evening throws

 Her mantle round, 'tis wholly given. To hear the plaints and feebler cries

 Q these s.io lift if their ttiogs above The lovers whisper'd words and sighs, That float along the air of love! From thee, the purest star of Heavens

 The dew, like honey drops descend, And man, from guilty sins forgiven, Beholds thee as his aim and end. But bright and balny as the Star,

 That lights along the Western sky, Glittering hangs the piteous tear

 That yields the glow of beauty's eye

 HARP OF THE BEECH. " IT II a III 1uf a. 4iobsssils Happy-happier far than thou, With laurel on thy brow, She that makes the humblest hearth Lovely but to one on earth. Thou hast charming cup, 0 Fame!

 4 draught that mantles high, And seem to lift this earthly frame

 Above mortality.

  Away! ta me--a woinaH-bTiIig Sweet waters from affection s spring: Thou hast green laurel leaves that twine, Into so proud wreath, For that resplendant gift of thine,

 Heroes have smii d in death, Give me from some kind hand a flower, iFhie lie record 5iie hiaPpy hour. Thou hast avoice, whose thrilling tone Can bid each life pulse heat, As when trumpet's note hath blown, Calling the brave to meet: But mine--let mine--a woman's breast, By words of home-born love be bless'd. A hollow sound is in thy song,

 A mockery is thine eye, To the sick heart that doth but long

 For aid-for sympathy; For kindly looks to cheer 1t on, For tender accents that are gone. Fame! Fame! thou canst not be the stay Unto thy dropping reed, st'he cool ffI.esi, fountain, in the day,

 Of the souls feverish need; Where must the lonely turn or feel Not unto thee, oh. not to thee!
