WHEN Cupid open'd Shop, the Trade he chose Was just the very one you might suppose. Love keep a shop?-his trade, Oh! quickly name! A Dealer in tobacco- Fie for shame! No Less than true, and set aside all joke, From oldest time he ever dealt in Smoke; Than Smoke, no other thing he sold, or made; Smoke all the substance of his stock in trade; His Capital all Smoke, Smoke all his store, 'Twas nothing else; but Lovers ask no more= And thousands enter daily at his door! Hence it was ever, and it e'er will be The trade most suited to his faculty:- Fed by the vapours of their heart's desire, No other foos his Votaries require; For, that they seek- the Favour of the Fair, Is unsubstantial as the Smoke and air.

AMORES et deliciae maturè, et celeriter deflorescunt. -CICERO pro. M.Cael. OMNIA speramus, promissaque vana fovemus Molliter: et faciles ad nova vota sumus. Intereà totum paupertas possidet aevum, Caecaque volvendo somnia, vita perit. -DANIEL HEYNS.

Love. -THE cherish'd Fire, WHich blindly creeps through every vein and dries The fluent blood, whence grosser vapours rise, Sadding the soul with fearful phantasies. It is to be all made of fantasy, All made of Passion, and all made of wishes; All adoration, duty, and observance; All humbleness, all patience, and impatience; All purity, all trial, all obedience. -SHAKESPEARE. LOVE reigns a very tyrant in my heart, Attended on his throne by all his guards Of furious wishes, fears and nice suspicions. -OTWAY. O MIGHTY Love! from thy unbounded power, How shall the human bosom rest secure? How shall our thoughts avoid the various snares? Or Wisdom to our cautioned soul declare The different shapes thou pleasest to employ, When bent to hurt, and certain to destroy!-SOLOMON. THERE'S nothing half so sweet in Life as Love's young DREAM. -MOORE.

Love and Hope. I HAVE heard many say: Love lives on Hope; they knew not what they said. Hope is Love's Happiness, but not its Life. How many hearts have nourished a vain flame- In silence and in secret, though they knew They fed the scorching fire that would consume them. -L.E.L. LIGHTER than air Hope's summer visions die; If but a fleeting cloud obscure the sky; If but a beam of sober reason play, Lo! fancy's fairy fros-work melts away.-ROGERS.

SIR KENELM DIGBY, in his Private Memoirs, makes a lover say, ''I will go to the other world to preach to damned souls that their pains are but imaginary ones, in respect of them that live in the hell of love.''-P.38. LOVE is a species of Melancholy.-BURTON. Cure for Love. MRS.CARTER was for half an hour one evening entirely in love with a Dutchman; and the next morning she took a dose of algebra fasting, which she says entirely cured her. -Memoirs, vol. I. p. 36-7.

Love and Legislation. STRANGE, and passing strange, that the relation between the two Sexes, the Passion of Love, in short, should not be taken into deeper consideration by our Teachers and our Legislators. People educate and legislate as if there was no such thing in the World: but ask the Priest, ask the Physician- let them reveal the amount of Moral and Physical results from this one cause. Must love be always discussed in blank verse, as if it were a thing to be played in Tragedies or sung in Songs-a subject for pretty Poems and wicked Novels, and Welfare and Eternal Salvation? Must Love be ever treated with profaneness, as a mere illusion ? or with coarseness, as a mere impulse? or with fear, as a mere disease? or with shame, as a mere weakness? or with levity, as a mere accident? Whereas it is Morality, and Happiness-mysterious, universal, inevitable as Death. Why, then, should Love be treated less seriously than Death? It is as serious a thing. -MRS. JAMESON.

WHO fearst outragious Vulcans damned ire, And wouldst be safe from night-surprising fire; Put out the flame, the smoaking snuffe suppresse, Least from the smoake the fire it selfe redresse; For fire is next to smoake, and oft its seene, That reaking snuffe a blazing fire hath beene. Who feares the damned fire of inward lust, And Cupids flames, observe this rule he must. Hearts concupiscene, 'fore it's vehement, Looke that in words he suffer't not to vent; For words are smoake of burning hearts desire; Smother his words, he needs not feare the fire: But otherwayes a wanton complement, Doth blow his fire, and makes him give consent. FARLIE'S Emblems.
