. . . Charlos Mackay Mrs. T. X. Hervey Mary Howitt Mr. C. A. Rowand Gardnor Motherwell . THE YOUNG LADY'S CABINET OF GEMS. THE SPIRIT OF PROGRESS. THE gloomy night is breaking, E'en now the sunbeams rest, With a faint yet cheering radiance, On the hill-tops of the west. The mists are slowly rising From the valley and the plain ; And a spirit is awaking, That shall never sleep again. And ye may hear that listen, The spirit's stirring song, That surges like the ocean, With its solemn bass along. 2 ( (13) |
