on whom your regards will confer the in
esiimabe style and prerogatives Of Queen
Of Beauty and Of Love. Alltrue knights
are required to respect your choice, and
render due homage to its fair and honored
object"
The band Of music pealed its loudcst
notes and all hearts leaped with sympa-
lhetic pleasure, and as the knight thus
addressed rode forward, and gracefully
laid the wreath with which he had been
provided, at the feet ofthe lovely Miss j..
G. of Washington. Three other knights
were privileged, in like manner to name
the ladies OF their first and loyal estima-
tion-they having been adjudged to have
borne off the prize of skill and horseman-
ship-in the order and degree in which
their names are here given, viz: Mr.. j.
L. S. Of Moble-Mr J. S. G.. of Kappa.
hammock, and Mr.. ]. S. r. Of Alexandra.
The choice OF these knights fell respect
lively on the fair Miss M. of Fauquier-
the lovely and interesting Miss J. n. NJ.
Of New Orleans, (lhan whom the sunny
South has revealed nothing brighter or
purer to the dazzled North, and the love-
ly and engaging Miss II. T.. of Alexan-
dria.

hannock-,he Misses +. end H.. and G..

contributed eminently to the witcher-
les of the evening. But what, perhaps,
il more imports tho public to know, and
what am sure--wil he hailed with de.
light by all those to whom
"Ladye-love and war.

DEATH.
BY PERCY 3. SHELLEY.

There Is no work, nor device nor know ledge
nor wisdom, in the grave, WHITTIER thou goes,."
The pale the cool and moony smile
Which the meteor beam of a staress night
Sheds on a lonely and sea-girt isle,
Ere The dawniug of fnorn's undoubted light,
Is the flame Of light so tickle and wan
That fits around steps Till their is gone
. man hold thee on in courage of soul
Through the stormy shades of thy worldly way
And the pillows of cloud that around thee roll
Shall sleep in the light ofa wondrous day,
Where earth and heaven shall leave thee free
TO the universe of destiny.
This world is the nurse Of all we know,
This world is the mother of all we feel,
And the coming Of death - fearful blow
10 brain unencompassed with nerves Of steel
When all that we know, or feel. or see,
Shall pass like an unreal mystery.
The secret things of the grave are there,
Where all but this frame must surely be,
Though the fine wrought eye and he wondrous ear
No longer will live to hear or See
All that is great and all that is strange,
In the boundless realm of unending change.
Who telelh tale of unspeakng death
Who lifeth the veil Of what is to come 4?
Who printaih the shadows that are beneath
The wide winding Of the peopled tomb
De uniteth the hopes OF what shall be
With the tears and the love for that which we see 7
