something of her ordinary manner. Rev. Mr.——preached a sermon on time. But what business had he to talk about time? We should like well to hear the opinions of a great man, who had made good use of time; but not of a little man, who had not used it to any purpose. I wished to get up and tell him to speak of something which he knew and felt. The best criticism on those sermons which proclaim so loudly the dignity of human nature was from our friend E. S. She said, coming out from Dr. Channing's church, that she felt fatigued by the demands the sermon made on her, and would go home and read what Jesus said,—Ye are of more value than many sparrows. That she could bear; it did not seem exaggerated praise. The Swedenborgians say, that is Correspondence, and the phrenologists, that it is Approbativeness, and so think they know all about it. It would not be so, if we could be like the birds,—make one method, and then desert it, and make a new one,—as they build their nests.

hat does grow there. My friends in Europe have sent me the needed books on the subject, and I am now beginning to work in good earnest. It is very possible that the task may be taken from me by somebody in England, or that in doing it I may find myself incompetent; but I go on in hope, secure, at all events, that it will be the means of the highest culture. In addition to other labors, Margaret translated, one evening every week, German authors into English, for the gratification of Dr. Channing; their chief reading being in De Wette and Herder. It was not very pleasant, she writes, for Dr. C. takes in subjects more deliberately than is conceivable to us feminine people, with our habits of ducking, diving, or flying for truth. Doubtless, however, he makes better use of what he gets, and if his sympathy were livelier he would not view certain truths in s. steady a light. But there is much more talking than reading; and I like talking with him. I do not feel that constra

gaged her natural sympathies; that sometimes the soul illuminated only the smallest arc—of a circle so large that it was lost in the clouds of another world. This apology reminds me of a little speech once made to her, at his own house, by Dr. Channing, who held her in the highest regard: Miss Fuller, when I consider that you are and have all that Miss——has so long wished for, and that you scorn her, and that she still admires you,—I think her place in heaven will be very high. But qualit tree, that busy plant. But, as Landor says, He who has any thoughts of any worth can, and probably will, afford to let the greater part lie fallow. I have not made a note upon De Vigny's notions of abnegation, which he repeats as often as Dr. Channing the same watch-word of self-sacrifice. It is that my views are not yet matured, and I can have no judgment on the point. Beranger. Sept., 1839.—I have lately been reading some of Beranger's chansons. The hour was not propitious. I

did and suffered there, engaged the attention and sympathy of a large number of still living witnesses. Her melancholy death with her husband and child, returning home, just entering the haven of her native land, sent a thrill through this country, and caused tears to flow in other lands, and has not been, nor is to be, forgotten. The brightness of her genius, the nobleness and heroism of her life, are set forth in two volumes of Memoirs from the pens of R. W. Emerson, Horace Greeley, W. H. Channing, J. F. Clarke, and other friends, which have been widely circulated, and have presented the story of an extraordinary life. Her thougths, committed to paper by her own eloquent and industrious pen, not only through the columns of the New York Tribune, for a series of years, but in several literary works, still express her genius, and breathe her noble aspirations. Woman in the Nineteenth Century, At home and abroad, Art, literature, and the drama, Life without and life within, embalm m

VI. Jamaica Plain. W. H. Channing Quando Lo raggio della grazia, onde s'accende Verace amore, e che poi cresce amando, Multiplicato in te tanto risplende, Che ti conduce su per quella scala, U‘ senza risalir nessun discende, Qual ti negasse 'l vin della sua fiala Per la tua sete, in liberty non fora, Se non com‘ acqua ch‘ al mar non si cala. Dante Weite Welt und breites Leben, Langer Jahre redlich Streben, Stets geforscht und stets gegrundet, Nie geschlossen, oft gerundet, Aeltestesm filled and grow only. With most men I bring words of now past life, and do actions suggested by the wants of their natures rather than my own. But he stops me from doing anything, and makes me think. October, 1842. To me, individually, Dr. Channing's kindness was great; his trust and esteem were steady, though limited, and I owe him a large debt of gratitude. His private character was gentle, simple, and perfectly harmonious, though somewhat rigid and restricted in its operations. It<

Ix> homeward. W. H. Channing. Last, having thus revealed all I could love And having received all love bestowed on it, I would die: so preserving through my course God full on me, as I was full on men: And He would grant my prayer—‘I have gone through All loveliness of life; make more for me, If not for men,—or take me to Thyself, Eternal, Infinite Love!’ Browning. Till another open for me In God's Eden-land unknown, With an angel at the doorway, White with gazing at His Throne; And a saint's voice in the palm-trees, singing,—‘all is lost, and won.’ Elizabeth Barrett. La ne venimmo: e lo scaglion primaio Bianco marmo éra si pulito e terso, Ch‘ io mi specchiava in esso, qual io paio Era'l secondo tinto, piu che perso, D'una petrina ruvida ed arsiccia, Crepata per lo lungo e per traverse. Lo terzo, che di sopra s'ammassiccia, Porfido mi parea si fiammegiante, Come sangue che fuor di vena spiccia. Sopra questa teneva ambo le piante L'angel di Dio, sedendo in
