LADIES’ EXPRESS.
The Editor will be glad to give insertion tn any local contributions from his lady friend* that may be considered interesting in the family circle, or to the sex generally.] “ only:* Only a carte de visite, Such as we often see ; Only a picture by the sun, But more than the sun tome. Only the magic likeness, Of a form and face that I knew ; Only a name left written On my heart mid the chosen few. Only another’s darling, Away over the sea, I would 1 could call her my own, But such bliss is not for me. Only the memory left me, Of her parting words and look ; Only the dull, dead feeling, Since hope my heart forsook. May God in his tender love, • Shield her from pain and woe ; That blessings attend her ever, ‘Twould gladden my heart to know. Only the memory left me. Of my first and only love ; Wearily counting the time Till we meet in our home above. FA Gisborne, April 1875.
