MANS LOVE.
When woman's eye grow dull,
And her check palelh,
When fades the beautiful,
Then mans love failcth,
He sis no. bas d. hcr chair,
CLASPS not her fingers,
Twines no, the damp hair,
Thato'c her brow fingers.

Though her eye Ilsh'ens,
Though her check, pale and thin,

When that fash fli tn,
Though ,rnc n1tctiou's tear

lie goes from her chamber straight
Into Iifes jo-lle,
H meets al The very gate
Business uaI hustle;
lie thinks net OF her within,
Silently sighins,
lie forseIs m that NOISY din
That she is dying
And when her young heart IS sla,
What though he mourne,h,
Soon firm his sorrow chill
Wcaried he turncib.

nate an early completion of the work. The re-
mainder of the route which is under tine process

MEMOIRS OF NJ. DE. CHATEAUBRIAND

The Memoirs of W. de Chateaubriand-ot
which the publication is to be deferred till after
his death-are referred to and describedby him
self in what he calls-a Testamentary Preface
which, however, he publishes while yet alive,
and of which very good translation will be
found below.
The singular and varied life ofthis soldier, po-
ct, traveller, and statesman, recorded in his
sparkling and antithetical style, and with his sim
pie and almost unconscious egotism, will constr
tute a most attractive work. The Testamenta-
ry Preface of itself affords good foretaste OF
the book-N Y Amer.

We learn from the Mechanics News Room
Bulletin, that the Court at East Cambridge were
engaged yesterday forenoon in the examina-
ton ofIsaac Parker, charged with firing the Con-
vent and he has been bound over in the sum oil
$1,000 to take his trial at the next court, and
been committed. Prescott P. Pond of this CT
ty, member of Engine Company No. l3, was
also examined, but his case was not determined
when the court adjourned. He was recognised in
the sum of $1,000, and two sureties Of $500
each, to appear from day to day until the case
was decided MIR. Eoulstone, whose case came
next upon the docket, was also recognised in the
same sum and like suretes.
In the Municipal Court yesterday. Robert G..
Hooper was put on trial, having agreed that the
testimony of the absent witnesses as delivered

Gen. Dearborn's, Dr.. Dearborn's and MIR. Jo-
seph H. Buckingham's evidence was thus in
their absence given to the Jury; Capt Howard

the part Of the defendant The trial lasted all
day, and the Jury were out about half an hour,
then gave in Verdict in these words-Not

little or no evidence that the challenge was gil

no direct evidence whether il was 10 fact given

The Globe repeats the declaration that Ken
dali at no time had any interest in that paper.
We state in the most positive Manner
lst That the control exercised by Kendall
over the Globe, occupied the attention Of the
Cabinet proper, and was the subject of partcu-
lar discussion.
I'd. That the Secretary Of State, MIR. Nc
Lane, either volunteered, or was requested by
the other members of the Cabinet, to state to
the President the injustice and improperly in
allowing Mr. Kendall to hold the Office he did,
and at the same time control the columns of the
Globe.
Sd. That Mr.. McLane did, in the strong
est possible light set this subject before the Pre-
sident, and the President, in concurring with
his views said he would request Mr.. Kendall
either to sell out his interestsin the Globe, or
cease exercising any control over its columns.
We dare Blair to deny these facts.

ALEXANDRIA:
SATURDAY MORNING, AUG. 90, 1884.

EpucArIon.- readers will have perceived
by several advertisements which have from
time to time lately appeared in this paper, that
the different Schools and Seminaries for TIE
education of males and females in this town
are about to commence anew their operations.
A correspondent has already called public at
tention to the number and excellence of these
institutions; and we would take this occasion 10
unite in the recommendation then generally pi
ven, as to the ability of the teachers and the ex.
celleEce of their schools. Few places are more
highly favored in this respect than Alexandra;
nor do we know any town where the advanta
ges of Education can be more thoroughly. re
gularly, and economically obtained These
facts present strong inducements to parents in
the neighboring counties of Maryland and Viz
gnia, and elsewhere, to give their children the
use of the opportunities which now present
themselves in this place, and of which we do not
doubt they will readily avail themselves The
high reputation already enjoyed by these semi.
naries. amongst those whose children, wards
and friends have been instructed in them, is an
evidence of the zeal and assiduity with which the
important work Of Education is conducted in
this place, and a guarantee that nothing will be
hereafter omitted to give permanence to a cha
racter so creditable to our community.
CHoLERA.-The New York Board of Health
report on the Goth instant, in the city, seventeen
cases and eight deaths; at Greenwich, three ca.
SEES and one death; at the Duane street Hospital
five cases and three Deaths at Bellevue, eigh,
cases and three deaths-making total ofthirty.
three cases and fifteen deaths. II will thus BE-
seen that the disease does not increase in tina.
city. From Albany, also, the accounts are more
favorable We do not hear of the progress Of
Cholera south Of New York at all.

the prevalence Of the Cholera, large assembly
