the western poet:
"The s hot lhot passed through Shields breast,
Instead of him killed Breese."
The late controversy between the two

an eastern poet to distinguish himself.

10, that mine head were waters--mine
eyes fountain of tears that might weep
day and night for the slain daughters of
ZiOn."-Solomon's Song,
There are crying times in Washington
about these days. The Union brings the
must sickIy accounts Of whole depart
ments assembling and joining in gener-
al bo0-hoo at the fate which has over
taken them. The old man Ritchie is
chief crier. His heart is full las well as
his pockets) and overhows like the inun.
dation of the Nile. He knows no democ-
racy but the pap-suckers at Washington,
and he thinks by publishing their tribula-
lions the whole nation will be mel:ed to
tears. Poor man! His time to below
for himself has yet to come. He has been
stuffed To repetition with pap, and his pa
per, the exclusive organ of the South. has
teemed with government provender and
abuse. On its merits as NATIONAL PA
PER it could not have lived a month, but
on the good will ofa southern administra-
tion, backed by the treasures Of the peo-
pie. 1t has grown insoent ard fat.
The last crying assembly officially an
nounced by the Union, was that of "Old
Cave" and his loving deputies. 1t must
have been an interesting sight to see this
tesly old tyrant, whose heart, if he ever
had any long siuce turned into hail stone,
trying to raise a tear. 1t would take e1
tcr7aL applications, such as onions, smoke

$1,000 and $4,000 clerks may have felt the
titiiIIalons upon the pocket nerve to such
degree, as to really boo.hoo. Very
likely! They had to whine themselves
into place and it is very proper they
should whine themselves out.
| Now if Father Ritche supposes that
the people care one fig about such kind
oftroubIes at Washington. he is greatly
mistaken. They do not spend their mon.

TuE EXTENSIVE ROBBERY AT ST. LOUIS.
The daring robbery Of the Banking
House of Messrs. Nisbel and Co, at ST.
Louis, was stated in our ieIegraphic ne ws
The papers furnish u more particular
statement:
The general suppesiIon is that the
thieves affected their entrance into The
house between midn ght and the hour Of
two in the morning. Proceeding To the
door al the further end of the hall, with
chisseIs and other necessary Instruments,
they pred of'the lock and succeeded in
opening the door. They then proceeded
to the trap door which leads to the low
er apartment, containing the vault aud
safe; aud attempted, in The first place, to
effect their object by entering from the
top.
Failing to accomplish their object as
soon as desirable, they attempted to force
the door of the vault, and here, again, they
met with effectual resistance. AS a last
resort we presume, they commenced ope.
rations on The back part of the vault, and
after removing about TWO feet thick of
brick, they succeeded in reaching the safe.
In this safe of Messrs. Nisbei they cut a
square hole sufficiently large TO admit the
passage of mans body.
The safe contained bank bills to the a
mount of about $4,000 or $50 900; sill.
yer 1000. and 50 1000 worth OF gold, be
sides special deposit of gold from a

were found yesterday morning about the

came across a miserable howell which was

poor biped was the only thing eatable TO

his companion that they should spare their

would have the chicken which was "a
