The Beautiful Young Maiden and the
T0GthleSS Old Maid! :,

The following story was tod by Col.
Black at Elizabeth. t, illustrate, the posi-
lion of the few s.sore heads'' whohaye wed.
.ded themselves TO the abolitianiat or free
Fdrl'' party ''S 80
Colonel B said be once heard Of miser.
able cd BachelJr, who had spent the great.
er part of his life in in searching for a wife.
He was determined not to marry, unless
he should come across lady who would
be model Of perfection; and the aost es-
sental thing, in his estimation, for the lady
Of his love to possess, was perfect set OF
teeth. At length the cold coon" became
acquainted with beautiful young maiden,
who in all things appeared TO come up to
his standard Of excellence. Her form was
of mu'chless mould-Eer checks were as
fresh and beautiful as the blooming flowers
Of the morning-her eyes were Us bright
and sparkling as the stars Of night-her
breath was as sweet as the perfume from a
bed Of volets; and, in Short she possessed
what he doomed of more value than all,
perfect set Of teeth! He wooed and won
her heart and affections. The nuptial day
was at length determined upon-the guests
were invited, and all the "ponp and cir
cumstance" incident to such interesting e.
vents were duly heralded abroad. A few
moments before they were TO ssand before
| l1ymen's holy altar, the lady thought it
advisable to let her intended know that
there was very small spcck on one of her
teeth, which might possibly cause it to do-
cay. The horrible intelligence was as un.
expected as it was alarming to the old ex.
quisite! He saw that he was deceived, be.
trayed, cheated humbugged, sucked in;"
and would avenge himself by committing
some awful deed! Overlooking with ex-
element and indignation, he rayed aud rung
his hands, and AT length resolved that he
would either blow his brains out Or
marry Sally Scroggins, the aglicst old
mud in the rillage aOithout q t0o!A an
her head. This last alternative he per-
formed, out Of pure rerengs, on account
of the manner in which he had been SO
grossly deceived!
I" This (said Col Black, is good -exem.
pliIica1ion of the course pursued by few
individuals who oppose the election Of Gas s
and Butler. They acknowledge that these
distinguished statesmen have no superiors in
the country, in point of intellect or qualf-
cations-they are sound Democrats and
honest men; but these squamish politicians
have discovered, as they suppose, smal!
speck in their political opinions, which
does not come up to their standard Of per-
fection. Therefore, TO aYenge themselves,
they run right into extremes, like the old
bachelor, and embrace old federal abolition
ism. with its foul mouth and toothless gums!
They will be heartily sick Of that business,
said the Colonel, before they are welded
many months'-PiHsbWgh Post.

The Frozen Dead of St. Bernard,

The scene Of the greatest interest at the
HoSpce-a solemn, extraordinary interest
indeed-is that Of the Morgue, or building
where the dead bodies of last travellers are
deposited There they are, some of them
as when the breath of life departed, and
the death angel, with his instruments of
frost and snow, stiffened and embalm ed for
burial. The floor is thick with nameless
skulls and bones, and human dust, heaped
in confusion. But around the wall are
heaps Of poor,,sufferers, in the very posi-.
ton in which they were found, as rigid as
marble, and in this air, by the preserving
element of an eternal frost, almost us crum.
bling There is mother and child, q most
affecting image of suffering and love. The
face of the little one remains pressed TO the
mothers bosom, only the back part of the
skull being visible, the body enfolded in
he- careful arms-careful in vain, afec.
tionate in vain, to shield her offspring from
the elemental wrath Of the tempest. The
snow fell fast and thick and the hurricane
wound them up in one white shroud and
buried them. There is also tall, strong
man, standing alone, the face dried and
black, but the white unbroken tooth firmly
set and close grinning from the feshless
jaws-it Is most awful spectacle. The
face seems to look at you from the recess
es Of the sepulchre as if it would toll you
the story of fearful death struggle in
storm. There are other groups more in
distinct, but these are two never to be for
gotten, and the whole Of these dried and
frozen remnants of humanity are a terrif-
ic demonstration of the fearfulness of this
mountain pass, when the elements let loose
in fury encounter the unhappy traveller.
You look at all this through the grated
window; there is just light enough to make
it soemnly and distinctly visible, and to
read in it powerful record of mental and
physical agony, and of maternal love in
death. The little child hiding its face in
its mother bosom, and both frozen 10 death
one can never forget the group, nor the
7aemento naori, nor the token of deathless
owe.
