SELECTED POETRY.
From Pinckney's Poems. North American review says, in speaking of the following lines, "If he who reads it is a lover already, it will make him love the more, and if he is not, he will determine to become one forthwith - There is a devotion and delicacy about it, an ardent and at the same time respectful and spiritual passion breathed out in it, which must ensure for it a ready admiration." A HEALTH. I fill'd the cup to one made up Of loveliness alone, A woman, of her gentle sex, The seeming paragon, To whom the better elements And kindly stars have given, A form, so fair, that, like the air, 'Tis less of east than heaven. Her every tone is music's own, Like those of meaning birds, And something more than melody Dwells every in her words; The coinage of her heart are they, And from her lips each flows, as one may see the burthened bee Forth issue from the rose. Affections are, as thoughts to her The measures of her hours; Her feelings have the fragrancy, The freshness of young flowers; And lovely passions changing oft, So fill her, she appears The image of themselves by turns, - The idol of past years! Of her bright face one glance will trace A picture on the brain, And of her voice in echoing hearts, A sound must long remain; But memory such as mine of her, So very much endears, When death is nigh, my latest sigh Will not be life but her's. I fill'd this cup to one made up Of loveliness alone, A woman, of her gentle sex The seeming paragon - Her health! and would on earth there stood, Some more of such a frame, That life might all be poetry,

feet much on the mind, after approxima
ting to what is called maturity, they do incalculably more in the tender years of
! infancy and childhood. Hence, the con-
i elusion is unavoidable, that the hrst cxer- ! cises of the mind are attended with a very ! sensible and lasting cuVd. And what is ; the nature of this e-tTect? According to
the admitted principles of human natuie, it is strengthening to" those faculties exerted,., Bv imitation, which is an important characteristic, the chihl is prompted to return frequently to this source of pleasure, and read again those lines of germinating thought. Thus he is bound in his course, and the effect is obvious. The nature of this exercise, and how it may be induced, we pointed out before; pud we' also suggested, that according to its, nature and extent so would be the effect. Here we
' have a very plain theory, and one we think j strictly founded on the known principles Jul man, which shews that the phenomenon I of the disparity of human minds is produced, j not natural. According to rule and to rea
l-son, we muet now conclude that "all men

We grant there is a difference in "two individual oaks,'" and even in t4two blades of grass, growing side by side on the same mound of earth." But it is necessary, for the effect of this argument, to trace vegetation also to its first principles, and shew that, in what may be called its vegetative spirit or power, there exists a disparity; for all the differences we observe, may be attributed to external causes.
