POET'S COH1TER. HUMAN LIFE. Life has a thousand charms, A thousand dreams of bli; Hope, Friendship, Love, thy bosom warms; A gleam of mercy this : But soon WwX. su.vht hour past. And Hope dies shiv-enng from the Mast. Life has a thousand ill?, A thousand anxious fears; Clouds gather on the sunny hilL, Anil doubts dissolve in tears; But Hope comes smiling through the storifc A rainlow round her angel-form

Idfe hai a thousand pys, Y outh fondly dreams for ever; Hut night draws on Vouth droops and sighs "Will day return? Oh never!"' Swift as a breath, light breaks the gloom, And Gladness smiles on Sorrow's tomb. "Ti but a change at best, I pon Life's busy shore, A little toil, a little rest, And all its care? are oVr Then sealM immutable, thy state, Vix'd an irrevocable fate'. It ia dream! But know Death's cold hand breaks theslumber; And who shall tell, if bliss or woe Those countless moments iroavber? It is beyond an angel's ken To pierce the yeiithat rises then! Life is a narrow sea. Cut who its bounds may tell? Its viewless depth- Eternity, lis limits Heaven or Hell! A point a moment. on it hang L'nutter'd Hiss evhaustiesi pang! ?Tis thine; but moments pst, Nr prwers nor tears recal; Fen wniie t!mu readest. light and fast Time's noUeles footsteps fall; Ando'e Life's golden sands be the?, His path serene as evening skits. Health basks upon thv brow. Jut Death's cold victims sec, -Soon thou must lie as they do now. And others ga.e on thee, W hen Lite, and Hope gav visions seen, Ttncm aa bright as once thv dream.

little stones, jostled from the path, are almost instantly in the river, and by one stumble, one slip of the mule, he falls headlong, and none but He, who made the mountains, can save you. If there is a place on this rugged earth, which deserves to be called sublime, it is that seen by him, who passes the laderas, in the Andes of South America. 15ut, while I pronounce the places describ

ed to be sublime, and ev en awful to him w ho beholds them, I must dissent from the opinion

of those, w ho think there is with proper caution, any serious danger in passing them. What prov es that there is not, is the fact, that no one, whom I have seen, knows of any hu

The h-t course, by the ladera. precipice, is sometimes the only one where the spur can possibly be passed. :iow this road along the la--ieras. rather this narraw mule path, was lirt rormed.it :s not e.isy to see. The precipice or ope ol the-laountain, towards the river, to .nigh rot t-erpendicular,i.? nearly so, is at ao angle of 7 A if not 0 degrees w fth the horri. m The length of the iaderas is from twelve to thirty rods; and the path clong the si !es fn;m or,e () tuo fect jn width, ju-t"sufli-eient for the mule to pass.

This caution ofceurso arises not from an v design to preserve the load iu charge, but to save themselves from the severe jar, which ev ery such contact gives them. In the worst and most dangerous places they are perfectly composed, anil if let alone, and suffered to pick their own way, will carry you through them all in safety ,but."as the peones say. "it is dangerous to force one of thoe animals, where he. on matnae deliberation, thinks it not best to go.
