| once heard an old Jour. remark, that a
printing office was no place for love-makng,
and have since experienced the truth Of his OBJ
servation-beng now perfectly convinced that
the flower of love can never bloom IN the midst
of types, stands and printing ink.
1t was my fortune once to sojourn for few
days in the village Of. Directly opposite
the office was pretty white cottage, with
rose bush clamberng around the easement, and
was not long in making the discovery that the
aforesaid white cottage with the rose shaded
window, contained a fair inmate-a flower
whose beauty far outshone the roses that clus-
tered around the windows She was little
blue eyed, saucy looking creature of some six
teen summers. She was the belle Of the viii
lage. Her name was Mary-sweet poetic
Mary.
'si have poetic passion for the name of Mary"
1t was beautiful summer morning, and
had raised the window to admit the cool breeze
from the hower-decked fields, and it was not
long before perceived that the cottage window
was also hoisted, and that sweet little Mary was
seated near it, busily engaged with her needle.

constantly wandered towards the cottage WIN

felt slight touch of what the poets call lOUe,
sliding IN at the corner fmy heart.
A few days passed away, and chance made
me acquainted with Mary. Heavens! she was
a sweet creature-she had form that would
have shamed the famous Venus de Medci-a
cheek that outblushed the richest poach-and a
lip that would have tempted bee from his hive
on a frosty morning. thought, as gazed on
her in mute admiration, that had never look

DREADFUL AND FATAL AFFRAY AT LOUIS
VILE. Another of those deeds of blood which
too often we are called upon to record, is thus
recorded in the Louisville Journal of Thursday
last:
"On Saturday night some angry words we
understand, passed between Mr., David NJ. Nc
Intre, of the firm Of McIntire & Brother, of
this city, and Mr.. Worden Pope Mercer, a
clerk at Gregory s. Co.'S lottery Office. Last
night a little after midnight, tha parties met,
accidentally we suppose, at the corner of Third
and Market streets, and Mr.. Mercer shot Mr..
McIntire in the head with pistol. Mr.. Mcln-
tire was taken to Walkers cof'ee-house, his
brain oozing in large quantities from his skull.
All possible aid was rendered him, but from the
first, his speedy death was obviously inevitable.
He was alive at | o'clock"
We do not feel authorised to state anything
that we have heard as to the circumstances of
the affair beyond the mere fact of the shooting.
Mr.. Mercer is now in custody"

For the American Republican,
POOR MANS DEATH BED AND BURIAL

HOS PITAL SCENE.
A saw him stretched upon his bed,
With languld lip aud eye;
No tears for him had yet been shed,
Tho he was dOOmd 10 die;
No friends had he, alas! no wife
To weep around him now;
Almost he was alone in life
Despair was on his brow.
One nom sought his bed, and OH
A touching scene wa there;
A scene that filled my soul with woe,
A scene Of dark despair;
A little gill, his only child,
Stood gazing in his eye;
Oft crying out in accents wild
"Dear father, will you die"
The dying father turn'd his head,
To gaze upon her charms;
tear upon her cheek he shed,
And clasp'd her in his arms;
He stove to speak in tender tone,
And while in grief she cried
"DCar father, leave me not alone"
He grOan'd-anl wept-and died,
To Potter's field | saw him borne,
To lie beneath the sod;
There was but one for him to mourn,
And three to break the clod;
No funeral pOnp, no funeral prayer,
No funeral emblems wave;
One little girl alone stood there,
And wept upon his grave.
Had he possessed Of gold a store,
He might have been a knave;
Yet hundreds would have found his door,
And followed to his grave:
And thus it is, and was of old
Disguise it as you cam
The maU has made God Of gold,
And money makes the man.

Friday, by MIR Jordan" if she had never been

said '.she had heard a great many jackasses

repartee turned the tables upon poor Jordan,
and created an outbreak Of laughter.

RIOT AND EXCITEMENT. We lean from the
st. Louis Republican that Major Curry was re-
Gently committed to Jail at Bowling Green,
Mo-, by the Circuit Court, for refusing to tes-
tify before the grand jury, in relation to gam
bling, which the court had undertaken to sup
press. In the evening the excitement among
the citizens of the town, and namber of per-
sons in attendance on the court, became very
great, and they threatened to demolish the jail
if MIR. Curry was not liberated. At length the
excitement became so great, and the demon
STATIONS so unequlvocal, tn at, to protect the
county property, he was liberated. The next
day two members of the bar had a personal con-
flict, growing out of the same matter.

SUDDEN DEATH OF A CLERGYMAN. The
Philadelphia papers announce the death of the
Rev. Mr.. Day. He died suddenly on Sunday
morning of bilious cholic. He was to have
preached that morning in Grace church, and
had prepared a sermon for the occasion, the
subject of which was ''the fear of death con-
quered." He was quite young man, and
preached his first sermon last Fall.
