MSt.heoeingf occiety.

This association held its regular semimonthly meeting at the residence ofMrs. Dominis, yesterday afternoon and evening, July
Ist. During the eveninga goodly number of
dropped in, among whom wei c repssentatives from the Swedish and American
ussels of war, now in port. In addition to
the transactions of other business, it was decided, that the "Tea Party" should take
place on Thursday evening, July 15th, at the
"Bungalow," which building had been
kindly tendered for the accomodation of the
society. Due notice will be given to the
public when the necessary arrangements are
completed. nJThe agreeable and entertaining
exercises ofthe evening were closed by Mrs.
Newell, the President, reading the following
lines, which were forwarded by some anonymous author. The sentiment is highly appropriate, and the language peculiarly
smooth and poetical. If the author was
present, he or she, must have been pleased
with the favorable criticisms which the verses received.from many who were present :

Eentlcmcn

The Sick Stranger's Appeal.
Ail let not joy and hope combine*
To weave a chaplet for my brow:
'T would be as when white ivies twine
Around the cypress or the yew.
Lett no enraptured seraph's lyre
Its thrilling symphonies impart,
Or strive to light a kindred fire,
Or wake to joy my bursting heart!
But let Compassion'sgentle hand,
Fair ladies, soothe my throbbing brow,
And lightest footsteps round me stand,
When racked with pain Pin lying low.

I'm sure 'twould give a transient gleam
To the failing light*, of the fading eye,
I'm sure 'twould cheer life's parting beam,
Ifpitying sympathy were nigh.

At last, when care bad banished sleep,
He saw, one morning—dreaming,doling—
An empty hogshead from the deep
Come shoreward Hosting;
Hehid it-ma cave, and wrought
The live long day laborious ; lurking
Until he launched s tiny boat
By mighty working.

Or crossed a ferry.
