POETRY.
CANNOT FORGET NE.
BY Mlss ROGERs.

Ye strive to forget me in vain
 My image win never depart; Through solitude, sickness, and pain,
 Its coll will De fixed in thy heart An! wherefore do ye seek to shun The mem'ry ef the injured enei Twill be spell to break thy peace,
 Twill be a spell to haunt thy rest, No human heart can s'sr release
 Its hold upon thy tortured breast; Strive oR~-strive on to dash it hence It still will mock thine impotence. Dost seek in halls of mirth to quell
 A little space thy dark despair, .'-< Thy haggafd eye and cheek will tell
 That m'ry's wand is busy there, Dost seek for rest in solitude Vain thought-e'sR there it will iEtrude. Dost call for wins-aye, to thy lip
 The ruby goblet eager press. Deeply the plenteous liquid sip
 Desm not twill make thee suffer less E'en as ye drink the sparkling foam, Dark thoughts of her you've wrong will coms Dost ask music--in Its sound.
 A thousand tortures will be found Dost praise some cheek that's passing fair.
 Thine eve will trace no beauty there, Dost whisper love--sick to It's core Thy heart will dwell on me once more. Hollow and cold each future shrine
 Thy heart may learn to form anew Thou It find no constancy like mine,
 No love so tender, or so true. The deadly blight of change shall rest On each new idol of thy breast. A phantom from the past shall cloud
 Even thy lightest gayest mood Twill haunt midst the busy crowd
 Or in the voiceless solitude. vainly ye'll seek to dash it by, Ye cannot from it's presence fly.

LIEUT.. KLINE.-The funeral ceremonies in honor
of this officer will take place on Sunday Lieut..
Kline belonged to company E.. Louisiana Mounted
Men, and was deservedly esteemed as one of the
most gallant officers in the army. He was killed
near National Bridge while bravely sustaining the
the honor of the American flag. He deserved better
fate than TO have been cut off in his career by the
murderous guerilleros. We are glad to that our
citizens do not omit to render to our officers who
have been killed in battle, the last honors due to
soldier who has died glorousy in defence of his
country. Even in death they should still be dear
to our hearts.

to Judge Saunders statement. His independent
friends will then act knowingly on matters which
at present they consider somewhat obscured.

sengers The body is supported by sixteen eliptical
springs, eight being placed Immediately under it,
Independent of nine others contained within the
trucks. The effect of these springs is such that the
car glides over the road with the easy motion of a
vessel upon the water doing away with that disa-
greeabe jolting and Earring so com0on in railroad
cars when travelling at a rapid rate. These cars
are all of the very best workmanship and materials
the seats are comfortably arranged and furnished
with splendid velvet cushions, while the other orna
ments of the interior are unsurpassed by any other
cars in the United States.
