On the smooth shaven grass, by the side of a wood, Beneath a broad oak, which for ages has stood, See the children of earth, and the tenants of air, To an evening's amusement together repair. And there came the Beetle, so blind and so black, Who carried the Emmet, his friend, on his back; And there came the Knat and Dragon-fly too, And all their relations, green, orange and blue. "And there came the with her plumage of down, And Hornet wifh jacket of yellow and brown. Who with him the asp, his companion did bring. But they promis'dthat'eyeningtolay by their sting.

Then the sly little Dormouse crept out of his hole, And led tq the feast his blind cousin, the Mole And the snail, with her horps peeping out of her -i BIICU, Came fatigued with the distance, the length of an ell. A mushroom the table, and on it was spread A water dock leaf, which the table-cloth made The viands were various, to each of their taste, And the Bee brought the honey, to sweeten the feast. With steps most majestic the Snail did advance, And he promis'd the gazers a minuet to dance i But they laugh'd sj loud, that he drew in his head And went in his own little chamber to bed. Then as evening gave way to the shadows ot night, Their watchman, the glow-worm, came out with nts ngnt So home let us hasten, while yet we can see, For no watchman is waiAig for you or lor me.

The best things can be imperceptibly discountenanced by ri- oicuie its force is almost irresistable and it is mournful, on that account tn reflect, that wit and morals should notXoore frequent! ly exist together. Ridicule, Tor the most part, is so alarmingly misdirected, that the true Christian must hail with raptute the powerful effort of this fascinating author, to make his work an instrument of disoounie-nantintr onlv those frailtiei which militate a. gainst the welfare of the world, and the immaculate precepts of its holy founder. The little novel of which we speak is gny and interesting, but perfectly religious, throughout.

The parent! of Thinksl-to Myself, supposing him too young to comprehend what passes, astonish the boy by the insincere politeness with 1 -i- 1 1. which mey repiy to disagreeable invitations, and receive offensive visitors. From repeated circumstances cf this nature he deduces inference highly unfavourable to the integrity of his parents and perhaps his confi-dencs in them would have been altogether extinguished but for a fortunate accident which convinced him that their conduct a-rose not from moral turpitude but a blind deference to fashion, which insensibly cor.

The author urges parents to beware nf thus exposing themselves to the disrespect of their children, who often silently investigate passing occurrences, before tliry are supposed to be capableW ob serving mem. Faients would do well tfbear these thing in mind, and to maintain a more rigid watchfulness over themselves at their fire-sides, than in the hall of affected gaiety, where the malice of the prying and syco-phantic guest will sometimes glare even thro' Ji is mask of smiles.
