SYMPATHY. Br Bishop Hebeh, A knight and Udy once met in a grove, While etch was in quest of 4ugitive love; A river ran mournfully murmuring by, And they wept in its waters for sympathy. 0 never ws knight such a terror that bore! O never wts maid so deserted befort!' From life and its woes let us instantly fly, And jump in together for company ' Thy searched for an eddy that suited the deed, But here was a bramble, and there a weed ; Hw tiresome it is!' sVid the fair with a sigh; So they sat down to rest them in company. They gaz J on each other, the maid and the knight ; How fair was her form, and how good'y his , height, 'One m urnful embrace!' sobb'd the youth 'ere we die!' So kissing and crying kept company. O had I but loved such an angel as you!2 0 hd but my swam been a quarter as true!' 'To miss such perfection how uhnded was ll Sure now they were excellent company! At length spoke the lass, 'twixt a smile and a tear 'The weather is cold for a watery bier; "When summer returns we may easily dieTill then let us sorrow in company.'
The Hair. A late number of the Journal of Health contains a very interesting article on the hair, which may be of service to those whose heads are becoming prematurely tfrey. The great influence of the passions upon the hair is not generally known. Grief and feelings of depression, will often render it white in a very short time. Many instances of this occurred during the French Revolution, extreme fear or surprise sometimes effect the change instantaneously. The hair soon becomes white, when persons are confined in dark or damp places in intense students and intemperate men, in men of sedentary habits, in those exposed to hardships, and who are deprived of sufficient sleep. Part of the following extract merits the attention of the ladies. Craftsman. Al'hougli the hair is necesarily devoid of sensibility, yet it appears to be capable, in certain states of disease, of becoming actually sensitive. In the hospital of the Royal Guardes,at Paris, a soldier was admitted, who had received a violent kick upon the back part of bis head Irom a horse. Inflammation of the brain occurred, accompanied b a remarkable sensibility in the hair. The slightest touch of the 1 ttter was felt instantly; while cutting, it gave such exquisite pain, that the poor fellow would seldom allow any one to come near the head. Baron Larry, surgeon , on one occasion, to put him to the lest, gavv a hint to .the assistant, who was standing behind the patient, to lip one of his hairs, without.the knowledge of the latter. This wasdext rously effected; but the soldier bjoke out in a volley of exclamation and complaints and it was Fomc time before he could be appeased. The hair is liable, ajso to a very formidable disease, in which it becomes firmly matted together, the holiow tube of which the hair iscompoed, becomes filled witu blood which escapes when it is out. This disease is commonly met with among th lower classes in i'o land, being ptoduced by their extreme filth, and the custom of having the head almost constantly covered with a wool len cap. Long and luxuriant hair has always been esteemed as an ornament, particularly in the female sex; by eome however, a very full head ot hair has been considered debilitating, from the great amount of fluid exhausted in its nourishment. Without fu'ly admitting such an opinion, we mut allow that in young and delicate habits this iong growth is a supporting cause of weak and pale complexion. When the hair is very inicu n uecomes uncomiorianie in warm weather, and is apt to produce a very copious perspiration, and uot unfrcquently head ache ; the latter being almost invariably relieved by thinning the hair. In ind.viduals of certain religious sects, whose heads arc kept shaved, or closely shorn, omitting this practice has been found to be productive of very bad ciE cts. Thus we are told of a Chartreaux, who according to the rule of his order, had his head shaved every month; but quitting his monastery at its destruction, he entered the army and allowed the hair to grow. After a few months he was attacked with excruciating head ache, from which he cou!d obtain no relif until some one ad vised him to resume his old habit, and have his head frequently shaved. The pain left him and never again returned. It would appear likewise, that individuals in perfect health, who.-e heads are ordinarily covered with a large quantity of hair, suddenly removing it is not unattende with danger. CONJUGAL FIDELITY. A TRUE STORY. Mr. Samuel Fisher, the inventor of the golden snuff, was acquainted with :t widow lady of excellent character, who resided ia Cork. This lady was
inconsolable for the death of her bus band; tlie day was spent by her in sighs & fomentations, and her pillow at night was moistened with the tears of sorrow. Her husband her dead husband, was the continual theme of her discourse , and she seemed to live for no other object but to recite his praises, and deplore his loss. One morning her friend Fisher found her in a state of meutal agitation bordering on distraction. Her departed love, she said, had appeared to her in the night, and most peremptorily ordered her to enter the vault where his remains were deposited and have the coflin opened. Mr. Fisher remonstrated with her on the absurdity of her idea; he said that the intensity of her sorrow had impaired her intellect; that the phantom was the mere creature of her imagination; and begged her at least to postpone to some future period her intended visit to the corpse of her husband. The lady acquiesced for that time in his request; but the two succeeding mornings, the angry spirt of her spouse -tood at her bedside, and with loud menaces repeat
ed his command. Fisher therefore, sent to the sexton, and matters being arranged the weeping widow and her friend attended in the dismal vault; tlie coflin wasoppened with much solemnity, and the matron srooped down and kissed the clay cold lips ot her adored bus band. Having reluctantly parted from the beloved corpse, die fpent the remainder of the day in silent anguish. On the succeeding morning, Fisher (who intended to et sail for England on that day) called to bid his alilicted friend adieu. The maid servant told him she had not yet arisen. "Tell her to get up," said Fisher, "I wish to give her a few words of consolation and advice before my departure." "Ah sir!' said the smiling girl, "it would be a pity to disturb the new married counle!" "3Iy mistress, sir, was married last night." "Married ! impossible! What, the lady who adored her deceased husband, who was nightly visited by his ghost, and yesterday so fervently kissed the corp-e? Surely you jest." O, sir," said the maid, "my late master, on his death bed, mmle my mistress promise that she w. uld never marry any man after his decease, till he and she should meet again, (which the good man no doubt thought would never happen till they met in heaven,) and you know, my dear sir, you kindly introduced them to each other, face to face yesterday. My mistress, sir, sends you her compliments and thanks, together with this bride cake, to distribute among vour youn,fr friends. ROMANTIC STORY. The Rev. R. Warner, in hi Literary Recollections, relatesa short but n mantic story respecting a Miss Nancy 13 re. This younu; lady wae, at an earl) ae, adopted by Mr. Ilackman, and his lady, under the following circumstances: uIier (Mrs. II.. i k man's) garden, in which alone she found particular pleasure, stood in need, as is usual in the spring season, of an active weeder; and John, the footman, was despatched to the poor-house to el.ct a little pauper girl qualified for the performance cf this necessary labor. He executed hi? commission in a trice; brought back a diminutive female of eight or nine years of age; pointed out the humble task in which she was to employ herself, and left her to her work. The child, alone amid the flowers, began to 'vaible her native wood notes wild" in tones ef more than common sweetness. Mrs. Hack man's chamber window happened lobe thrown up; she heard the little weeder's solitary song; was struck with the rich, melody of her voice, and inquired from whom it proceeded. "Nan. cy IWe, from the poor-house," was the answer. By Mrs. Ilackman'a order, the songstress was immediately brought to the lad) 's apartment, who became so pleased, at this first interview, with her naivete, intelligence and apparently amiable disposition, that she determined to remove the warbling Nancy from the woik-house,and attach her to her own kitchen establishment, The little maiden, however, was too good and attractive to be permitted to remain long in the subordinate condition of a scullion's deputy. Mrs. H ickman soon preferred her to the c ilice of lady 's maid; and, to qualify her the better for this attendance on her person, had her carefully instructed in all the elementary branches of education. The intimate intercourse that now subsisted between the patroness and her protegee quickly ripened into the warmest affection on the one part, and the most grateful attachment 0n the other. Nancy Bere wa attractively lovely, and still more irresUtable, from uncommon sweetness cf temper, gentleness of disposition, and (emine softness of character: and Mrs. Ilackman, whose regard for her daily increased, proposed, at length, to her complying husband that they should adopt the pauper orphan as their own daughter. Frem the moment of the execution of this plan every possible attention was paid to the education of Miss Uerej aud, I presume.
with the best success, as I have always understood she became a highly accomplished ycjng lady. Her humility and modesty, however, never forsook her, and her exaltation to Mr. II -ttkman's family seemed only to strengthen her gratitude to her partial and generous benefactors. It could not be thought
that such l,a flower" as the adopted j beauty, "Was born to blush unseen, And waste its sweetness on the desert air," or that, however retiied In r life might he, Miss B re would remain loni; tin beloved protegee of Mr. and Mrs. Had man, without being remarked, admired and tioiicitca tocnange ner name. erv shortly, indeed, after assuming this character, such an event occured, tin ugh without, at that litt -, producing any pr'piuous nsult.
