When life is like a sunsets gories blended
With all the waking splendours of the morn,
And when dear love If some light showers descended

Soh, warm! oh. heautifuli oh, glorious season!
Like the frst blushing time of Casnme roses. q

And in thy lap Of languid joy epose,
In reveries delicious. j revisit

Where moments passed of pleasure so exquisite,

Oh fondly wildly loved one oh, adored (!
Again come back thy words OF tenderest meaning,
That once such rap,ufes through my bosom poured.

THE EXECUTION OF PAULINE

The slave Pauline was executed Yesterday, at half
past II o'clock, at the parish prison, in accordance
with the sent ence of the court, for cruelty to her
mistress, The spectacle was, all such spectacles
are horrd yet the street, in front of the prison,
thronged with the popuace who gathered at early
hour to see a human being launched into eternity
There were men and boys, & women oowith infants
in their arms, who while they uttered ordinations
of pity, stood still and gazed. Here and there were
carriages filled with female spectators; and all were
stretching their necks standing on tip-toe pushing
and jostllng each other, and they might get good
sight TIL, CO.. rse joke and brutal laugh might be
heard, too, as if hanging quite pleasant and
laughable afair-a sort of cheap amusement for the
people-they seemed so joval about it. While this
scene going on without, everything was prepar-
ing within. Shortly before IL o'clock the sheriff
waited upon the unfortunate cuprit, who had been,
In company with Priest Louis, her cell land announ
ded that all in readiness. She was then dressed
in long white robe, her arms bound with black
cord the white.cap placed upon her head and walked
accompanied by the priest, sheriff. keeper of the prs-
on, and officers of the Criminal Court, to the gaows
which was erected upon platform between the two
prisons, fronting on Orleans street, screened by
double gate She was perfectly firm, and apparently
Indifferent to her fate. After praying with the cer-
gyman upon the gallows-the crucifx was placed
upon her neck, and white pocket handkerchief in
her left hand-the rope adjusted on her neck by
one of the convicts, whose face was Biackened and
she took her seat upon the bench erected upon the
platform. The gates were then opened, and loud
murmur ran through the opened, and loud murmur
through the populace at the sight ofthe wretch
ed woman The party on the platform uncovered
the caps pulled over the culprits eyes, and the
galows slid out so that it projected few feet
unto the street. In few seconds the drop platform

dangled in the air: 1t painful terrible, to see
the struggles of the dying woman, for was several
minutes before all over as her neck was not bro

the expiration of about twenty minutes, she was ia
ken in, and pronounced dead by the physician. As
she was taken in and the gates closed sort Of
Unsurpassed shout from portion of the crowd
and gradually the whole assemblage broke up, and
went away.

Mr.. EDITOR: Taking up newspaper, few days
SINCE from the interior of Pennsylvania, gratied
to notice some very Just remarks by correspondent in
reference to the newly appointed Commissioner OF Public
Buildings, and other highly respectable government Off
Gers; and thinking you would be pleased to republsh
them, enclose them to you for that purpose.
In relation to the Hon. Mr. Beaumont, what makes
his appointment particularly acceptable to citizens in the
District well elsewhere is the known fact OF his
scruuo,s honesty, and inbred, undertaking moral prn-
oples In illustration of this point if felt AT liberty,
could relate incident OF recent occurrence, wherein
these traits in his character manifested in manner
to command the respect and admiration of every friend Of
virtue and moraltyno matter of what party in politics
in the land H.
My means of observation have not perhaps, been suf
cien to enable me to pronounce the suggestions to
the proprety OF increasing Colonel Hobbies salary alb
solutely correct and calling for early action the part
OF those who have the power to raise the salary but
they at least appear reasonable and the compliment TO
that interchangeable officer | am sure is well deserved
The following are the remarks referred to
"The recent appointment of Hon A. Beaumont to the
office of Commissioner of Public Buildings appears give
general satisfaction He is emphatcay democrat in
practice as well as theory. At any rate, this is his
character, so far have been able Judge from the
slight acquaintance have formed with him, and from
what have heard said of him out of doors His quail
hcations for the place are undoubted and is gratifying
to see men like him, of fine talents gentemantly deport
men and unspoted reputation, called into the public
service
