But whea the lightnings woke II up,

When married folks get clashng,
There was heavy Sigh or two,
Before the FIRE was flashing
A little stir among ths clouds,
Before they rent asunder-
A little rocking oftne trees,
And then CRIME on the thunder.
Lord! how the ponds and rivers boiled:
they seemed like bursting craters;
Ana oaks lay scattered en- the ground
AS ii they were potatoes;
AND all above was in howl
And all below a CHATTER;
The earth was like a ying.pan,
Or some such kissing matter.
IL CHANGED TO be our washing dav.
And all our things wee dr. ing:
The storm came rsaring through the lines,
And setth-m all a fl ying;

farewell, fareweil!" family cried,
My sre eches! o, my breaches !"
That night saw them ia my dreams;
How changed from what ] knew them.
The dews had STEPPED their faded threads:
The winds had whstled through them
saw the wide and ghasly renIs
where dc mon claws had torn them

As il an imp had worn them

And TAI ors Mind and clever;

Forever and forever!
And not till fate has cut the last
Ok all my earthly stitches.

1t said that 10 threw himself from the second story
window Of Palmo's. This is impossible Had he
done So he must have fallen upon the iron railing.
The circumstances Of his death should be further in
vestigated We have received more than dozen
communications On the subject, many of them blam-
ing the Coroner. This is UNJUST The duties of the
Coroner are most arduous, and most unpleasant; no
mans are more so. And no man that we ever knew
has discharged those duties more correctly prompt
", mparually and effectively than Ira B. Wheeler.
He is republican in the truest sense of the word.
Kind hearted, honest industrious, oblgng, but un-
bending We never did have and we never shall
have better coroner He did all in the premises
that he could do. But STILL mystery hangs over
the matter which the public wish TO see cleared up
A statement has been published that Mrs. Bonfantl
was the sister of Sammy Woodwork. This is not
true. His wife was the niece of Captain Taylor
Sammy Woodworth-a Sammy, used to
write verses for Bonfanti, when he kept little store
in Chatham street. Sammys two sons kept store
for Bonfanh whilst he was in Italy. They cleared
$4,000 in that time; he gave them $4,000 between
them, and kept $1,000 for himself. After he came
back he offered them one half the profits TO manage
the business he was TO find stock, and receive the
other half he appointed o'clock in the afternoon
for friend and countryman 10 call on hlm to advise
and arrange relative to the matter; his Trend DID
call; Mr. Bonfanh was not to be seen. That same
night ne was found dying on the side walk, close to
Broadway. Again, we say, the circumstances OF his
death are most extraordinary, and require thorough
in vesg cation the hands of Justice Lowndcs, for
we think him the only man capable OF searchlngit
out.
