BY WALTER SAVAGE LANDOR.

  Over his millions Death has lawful power,
  But over thee, brave Ossoli! none, none! 
  After a long struggle, in a fight
  Worthy of Italy to youth restored,
  Thou, far from home, art sunk beneath the surge
  Of the Atlantic; on its shore; in reach
  Of help; in trust of refuge; sunk with all
  Precious on earth to thee,—­a child, a wife! 
  Proud as thou wert of her, America
  Is prouder, showing to her sons how high
  Swells woman’s courage in a virtuous breast.

  She would not leave behind her those she loved: 
  Such solitary safety might become
  Others,—­not her; not her who stood beside
  The pallet of the wounded, when the worst
  Of France and Perfidy assailed the walls
  Of unsuspicious Rome.  Rest, glorious soul,
  Renowned for strength of genius, Margaret! 
  Rest with the twain too dear!  My words are few,
  And shortly none will hear my failing voice,
  But the same language with more full appeal
  Shall hail thee.  Many are the sons of song
  Whom thou hast heard upon thy native plains,
  Worthy to sing of thee; the hour is come;
  Take we our seats and let the dirge begin.

MONUMENT TO THE OSSOLI FAMILY.

[FROM THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE.]

The family of Margaret Fuller Ossoli have just erected to her memory, and that of her husband and child, a marble monument in Mount Auburn cemetery, in Massachusetts.  It is located on Pyrola Path, in a beautiful part of the grounds, and has near it some noble oaks, while the hand of affection has planted many a flower.  The body of Margaret Fuller rests in the ocean, but her memory abides in many hearts.  She needs no monumental stone, but human affection loves thus to do honor to the departed.

The following is the inscription on the monument:—­

Erected
In Memory of

MARGARET FULLER OSSOLI,
Born in Cambridge, Mass., May 23, 1810.

By birth, a Citizen of New England; by adoption, a Citizen of Rome; by genius,
belonging to the World.  In youth, an insatiate Student, seeking the
highest culture; in riper years, Teacher, Writer, Critic of
Literature and Art; in maturer age, Companion and Helper
of many earnest Reformers in America
and Europe.

And

In Memory of her Husband,
GIOVANNI ANGELO, MARQUIS OSSOLI.

He gave up rank, station, and home for the Roman Republic,
and for his Wife and Child.

And

In Memory of that Child,
ANGELO EUGENE PHILIP OSSOLI,

Born in Rieti, Italy, Sept. 5, 1848,
Whose dust reposes at the foot of this stone. 
They passed from life together by shipwreck,
July 19, 1850.

United in life by mutual love, labors, and trials, the merciful Father
took them together, and
In death they were not divided.
