—Alter iccucfgs icu/i a rainier, o\j i/ie ncv. r. r.Noble.Yount. Gini.s.—To our thinking there is no more exquisite creature on the earth than a girl from twelve to fifteen years of age. There is a* • • Operiod in the summers morning known only to early risers, which combines all the tenderness of the (lawn with nearly all the splendor of the day.There is at least full promise of the dazzling noon; but yet the dew-drop glistens on the half-opened (lower, and yet the birds sing with rapture their awakening song. So, too, in the morning ol a girl's life there is n time liko this, when the rising glory of womanhood sparkles from the thoughts of an infant, and the elegance of a queenly grace adorns the gambols of babyhood. Unimpeded yet by the sweeping raiment to which she foolishly aspires, she glides amongst her grosser playfellows like a Royal yacht amongst a fleet of coal-barges. Unconsciousness (alas, how soon to depart!) has ail the effect of the highest breeding; freedom gives her elegance, and health adorns her with beauty. Indeed, it seems to be the peculiar province of her sex to redeem this part of life from opprobrium.—Good Words.Ax Indian Romance.—Among the Sikh nobles
