TO 

_MRS.  T.  SPOTISWOOD ASH,_ 

THE MANOR HOUSE, 

BELLAGHY, IRELAND.

IN THE NORTHWEST. 

"I'll not forget Old Ireland, were it fifty times as fair." 

In myriads o'er the prairie
Bright flowers bloom strangely fair,
There's beauty in the clear blue sky,
There's sweetness in the air;
And loveliness, with lavish hand,
