PLAT YorR HAIR, LADIEs.-The Galvesto-
nan says that lady while bathing in The Gulf
of Mexico, suddenly found that she was float
ing out on the waves. Her garments buoyed
her up, and the under tow was drawing her out
pretty rapidly. She Immediately cried out'
ond gentleman who was bathing with her
swan to her::rescue. On reaching her, she
cluched him by the throat, and il was with
some difficulty that he disengaged himself.
Luckily, the lady had plated her hair previous
to going into the water, and the gentleman
seeing this, caugh!is, placed il, between his
teeth, and thus managed to tow the ssfair one
ashore. Well bet six radshes to sweet po-
taloe that he marries her.

And shake the dew which hath fallen by night
From its throne the lilys pure bosom of white
Awake thee, when bright from my couch in the sky,
beam DER the mountains and from on high
When my gay purple banners are waving affair."
When my herald gray drawn hath extnguished each star
When smile the woodlands and bend DER the lake.
Then awake thee, O maiden, bid thee awake.
Thou may slum0er when all the wide arches of heaven
Glitter bright with the beautiful fires of even;
When the walks in glory and looks from on high
Oer the clouds floating far through the clear azure sky
Drifting onward-the beautiful vessels of heaven,
To their Ear away harbour, all silently driven, .,
Bearing on in their bosoms the children of light,
who have fled from this dark world of sorrow and night:
When the lake lies in camness and darkness save where
The bright ripple curs meath the smile sofa starr
When all is in silence and solitude here,
Then sleep. maiden sleep, without sorrow or fear!
But when steal silently over the lake,
Awake thee then, maiden, awakel oh awake
