Running a Parallel.

Mr.. G.. Lewis the inimitable genius
Of the ".NorM Mississippi Union,"
runs the following parallel between
himself and Gen, Quitman, the dis
union nominee for Governor OF Mis-
siss;gpi 1t is rich decidedly, Read

Gen. Quitman and ourselves are
two full bIooded live Yankees, born
Yankees and are Yankees still. We
were born not great distance apart
in the State Of New York our fore
fathers fought in common in the Rev
olutionary, and ar Of 1912, and we
patriots like them, both fought in the
Mexican war.
At an early age our friend cmigrated
to the Great South which opened her
broad arms 20 receive all honest and
industrious men. How did he get
here, we know not:-as to ourselves
we Heated in on raft, first into the
State of Mississippi, next into the city
OF st. Louis, with pair of striped
trousers, dirty shirt and straw hat
on. Next day we were dressed like
gentlemen, With thirty dollars in our
trousers, At that era of our exs.
tence, We were II years Of age, if
our friend Ex-Governor was younger
than that when he arrived South,
then he has the advantage of us in
that particular.
Our friend the General, received
while in the Mexican war some $500
a month more or less, with peroui-
sites, honors, &c. We whi!e in the
same service received Sc month

The Yacht America.

Mr. Stevens yacht America is
creating great excitement in Eng.
land by the display Of her superior
sailing qualities. She has made
three races, and has, on each occa-
sion, left her competitors miles be-
hind. She of course attracts much
attention, and willie many of the En-
gish regard her with jealous eye,
large number readily acknowledge
that she is a gallant cralt aud can
beat anything in gland in the way
Of sailing. One of the handsomest
incidents connected with the career
of the America in English waters is
the fact Of Queen Nictoria's sending
the Yankee sailors five pounds to
drink to herself and their vessel, the
Queen Of England and the Queen
Of the Waters.
The America took honest John
Bull by surprise. There was no ex-
pectation that such phenomena was
coming and she was unannounced I'M
I'll she ran up the English coast. In
the frstrace in which the distinguish
ed herself, she had eighteen competi-
tors, and she ran across the bow of
each one ofthem with the greatest
facility aud then got back TO the star
ting point more than a mile ahead of
the fastest Of her competitors. The
intelligence by the Niagara, which
arrived at New York on Thursday,
is that in the race with the brag
yacht Titania, on the 9th ult the
america was victorious, beating her
adversary several miles. She will
scarcely meet with any more chal-
lenges, as she has already fairly dis
tanced the most distinguished sailing
vessels in England.
The America is not the fastest Of
American vessels. She made race
with a Graf. named the Maria some
time ago in the port of New York
in which the Maria came out ahead.
There will be no occasion for the
Maria to go to The rescue of the rep
utation of Ameriean shipbuilders so
long as the America beats all her OPP
ponents. When the America is sur
passed, then the Americas victor
must display her bunting and strain
her cordage in the English waters:-

a good Story Of an Old Hatoheior.

There was a fine old General
once who, having spent most of his
life in the field of Mars, knew very
little about the Camp of Cupid. He
was one of those rough and honest
spirits, often met with in his profess
sion, innocent as an infant OF almost
everything save high integrity and
indomitable bravery. lie was near
ly fifty years old and his tolls were
were over, when master Dan Cupid
brought him acquainted with wid-
ow Wadman, in whose eye lie began
TO detect something that made him
uneasy. Here was the result Of
leisure,
During hi; service lie had never
seen anyth,og worthy of notice in a
woman's eye. In fact, lie would
scarcely have observed whether
woman had three eyes in her cad or
one: for no matter where his own
eyes were lis thoughts were ever
among "guns, End drums, aud
wounds" and love was thing that
lived in lis memory just as lie re-
membered once reading visionary
story book, called the Arabian
Nights Entertainments" when
boy.
Well, the General had settled
down into an amiablc, gentlemanlv
old fellow, living alone with comfort
able wealth around him, and having
little to do save now aud then to en-
terrain an old comrade in arms,
which companionship afFol1ed op,
portonity foT him to fight his battles
DER again But alas! DER this calm
evening oftho old Generals day, a
dtal Of perplexity wac doomed to fal!
and he soon found himself in troubled
waters,the depth of which lie could by
no means understand. lie lloundcred
about like a Gagged rat under a pump
and such another melancholy fish
out Of water never before swallowed
the bait, hook aud all, Of the angling
god of love. The poor General.-
We must give him name or we
can't tell the story, and the best
name for such a story is Uncle Toby.
Poor General Uncle Toby debated
abstractedIy aboat his new position,
and never had seige or campaign
given him such perpIexity before.
AZ length, however, the blunt hon
esty Of his disposition rose upper
most among his conflicting plans,
and lis course was chosen. At
school lie had once studic d 'Othello's
Defence" to reci,e at an exhibition
but made great failure; and lie now
recollected there was something in
this 'defence very much like what he
wanted to say. lie got the book
Immediately, found the passage, clap

and posted off to the widow Wad-

arm.

THOUGHTS OF THE PAST.
by ROSA.

Bring music, for it fills my soul
With rapture and delight,
Let roses crown the flowing bowl,
And we'll be gay tonight!
Yes, cay! although a mournful tone
Is lingering in my heart,
And dreams Of joy, forever flown,
Within my bosom start.
On with the dance! yet oh, prolong
Each melancholy note,
For rs amid the glitterinG throng
Their plaintive numbers float.
/ feel wild, strange thrill Of joy
While yet my heart is sad,
Aud memory would the smile destroy,
Which seemed but now SO glad.
AS summer breezes lightly rest
Upon a calm, clear lake,
And scarce upon its placid breast
The silvery ripples wake,
These thoughts of sadness and Of bliss
Come sweeping gently by,
Soft as the THRILL OF LOVES owS KISS,
And mournful as its sigh.
But summer. breeze perchance may
The spirit Of the storm, wake
And every ripple on the lake
An angry billow form, at first
Thus saddened thoughts which seemed
So sweetly mixed with joy,
Within my heart now madly burst,
And every hope destroy.
For memory's tear Oft dims the light
rf pleasures radiant wing,
And sheds on every flower blight
Which in the breast may spring;
But oil! when every hope has fled,
What thoughts Of anguish start
AS TEARS we MUST not, DARE not shed,
Fall burning on the heart.
Yet once again-oh! softly trill
The notes love to hear,
And will dream of joy, while still
The echo fills mine ear.
On with the dance! from dreams Of bliss
Perchance my heart will wake
Nor be the FIRST, mid scenes like this
To linger OH and BREaK!
