POETS CORNER.
A Pretty Little Maiden.


A pretty little maiden had pretty little dream,
And pretty little wedding was its pretty little
theme;
A pretty little bachelor to win her favor tried,
And asked her how she'd like to be his pretty
bride.
With some pretty little bushes, and pretty
little sigh,
And some pretty little glances from her pretty
little eye,
With pretty little face behind her pretty lit
tie fan,
She smiled on the proposals of this pretty lit
tie man.
Some pretty little Cloves" and some pretty
little .'dears."
Some pretty little smiles, and some pretty lit
tie tears,
Some pretty little present, and a pretty little
kiss,
Were the pretty little preludes to some pretty
little bliss.
This pretty little lady and her pretty little
spark
Met the pretty little parson and his pretty lit
tie clerk;
pretty little wedding-ring united them fol
life,
A pretty little husband had pretty little
wife.

PRosrEcrUs-This work is conducted in he
spirit of LittelpS Museum of Foreign Literature
(Which was fatorably received by the public for
twenty years') but as it is twice as large, and
appears so often with not only spirit and fresh
ness to it by many things which were exclu-
ded by months delay, but while thus extern
ding our scope and gathering crater and more
attractive variety, are able to increase the solid
substantial part of literary, historical, and
political harvest, as fully to satisfy the wants
of the American reader.
The elab crate and stately essays the Edin-
burgh Qu0rerty, and other Reviews and Black
goods noble criticism on Poetry, his keen DO
litical Commentaries, highly wrought Tales,
and vivid descriptions of rural and mountain
scenery; and the contributions OF Literature
History, and Common Lie, by the sagacious
Spectator. the sparkling Examiner, the judi
tious An thenGum, the busy and industrious
citerary Gazette, the senSive and comprehenS-
LIE Britannia, the sober and respectable Chris
ivan Observer, these are inermixed with the
Military and Naval "reminiscences of the Uni
ted Services, and the best articles of the Dub
lin University. New Monthly, Fraser's, Traits,
Ainsworth's Hoods and Sportings Magazines,
and of Chambers admiral Journal. We do
not consider it beneath our dignity to borrow
wit or wisdom from Punch; and when we think
It good enough to make use OF the thunder o.
The Times. we snail increase our variety by
inportations from the continent o. Europe, and
and from the new growth OF the British colo
MES.
The steamship has brought Europe Asia. and
africa, into our neighborhood: and will great
ly multiply our connection, as Merchants,
Travellers, and Politicians, with all parts OF
the world; so that much more than ever it now
becomes every intelligent American to be in
formed OF the condition and changes Of foreign
countries. And this not only because of their
nearer connection with ourselves, but because
the nation seems to be fastening through rap
id progress OF change, to some new state Of
things, while the merely political prophet can
not compute or foresee.

A LA BLooMER.-The lady of one Of
our most respectable merchants. Mrs. J.
L. Michner, has adopted the new style
of dress-short frock and trowscrs-and
on Saturday last, having occasion to cali
upon relation, appeared, unattended,
in the streets and trasersed the city, ar
rayed in this novel attire. She met with
no annoyance, except being stared at by
persons on the street, which was no more
than she expected. The lady has no de-
sire for display, but she regards the
change in dress as most desirab bic in eve-
ny respect. and will hereafter wear the
new style whenever she has occasion to
make calls or go shopping. Mrs. M. de-
serves great praise for her courage in thus
acting as pioneer in this movement.
We expect to see these costumes plenty
enough on our streets before many weeks.
