LADIES’ EXPRESS.
[The Editor will he glad to give insertion to any local contributions from his lady frienas that may be considered interesting in the family circle, or to the sex generally.] o THE HEIDE. Oh, take her, but be faithful still, And may the bridal vow Be sacred held in after years, And warmly breathed as now. Remember ’tis no common tie, That binds her youthful heart, ’Tis one that only Truth should wear, And only Death can part. The joys of childhood’s happy hours, The home of riper years, The treasur’d scenes of early youth, In sunshine and in tears ; The purest hopes her bosom knew, When her young heart was free, — All those, and more she now resigns, To brave the world with thee. Iler lot in life is fixed with thine, In good and ill to share ; And well I know ’twill be her pride To soothe each sorrow there. Then take her ; and may fleeting time Mark only Joy’s increase ; An 1 may your days glide sweetly on In happiness and peace.
