SERENADING YOUNG LADY.-A
friend tells the following:
In my young days, I was extrav-
agantly fond Of attending parties, and
was somewhat celebrated for playing
the flute. Hence it was generally ex-
pected, when an invitation was extend
ed, that my flute would accompany
me. l visited splendid party one
evening, and was called upon to favor
the company with a tune on the flute.
l, of course, Immediately complied with
the request. The company appeared
to be delighted: but more particularly
so was young lady, who raised her
hands and exclaimed that it was beau
tiful, delightful, &c. I of course was
highly fattered, and Immediately form
ed resolution to serenade the young
lady on the following night. started
the next night in company with several
young friends, and arrived as sup
posed, at the lady's residence, but
made glorious mistake by getting
under the window of an old Quaker.
"Now boys,' said T, "behold the
sentimentality of this young lady the
moment strike up, the last Rose
Of Summer" I struck up, the window
remained closed-the boys smiled.
"Oh," said I, that is nothing, it
would not be in good taste to raise the
window on the first air. I next struck
up "Old Robin Gray" Still the win
dow remained closed. The boys snick-
cred and 1 felt somewhat fiat.
"Once more, boys said I, " and
she must come.'' I struck up again
"My Love is like the Red, Red Rose"
Still there was no demonstration.
"Boys," said I, (" she's humbug.
Let US sing ''Home, Sweet Home" )"
and if that don't bring her, will give
her up. We struck up, and as We fin
ished the last line the window was rais-
ed.
'.That's the ticket, boys, I knew we
could fetch her.'' But instead of the
beautiful young lady, it turned out to
be the old Quaker, in his night cap and
dressing gown.
Friend,' said he, "thee was sing
ing Of thy homeland if / recollect
right, thee said there was no place like
home if that is true, why don't thee
60 to thy home. Thee is not wanted
here-thee nor none of thy party
Farewell"
We and our hats went home.
THE SYRACUSE RESCUE CAsE.-Judge
Conkling, in his charge to the Grand
Jury at Buffalo, in order to demon
strate the outlines of the act with
which the accused are charged, re-
ferred
First, to the provisions respecting
fugitive slaves in the Constitution Of
1899.
Secondly, to the Act of 1898, and
it's operation and administration.
And thirdly, to the law of 1850, the
present Fugitive Slave law, the It'll
sec. of which he quoted at length.
He then gave clear, brief account
of the occurrences at Syracuse, and
said if there be we'll founded proof thai
the accused co-operated by overt acts
or by melting others, the Grand Jury
were imperatively bound to find bills Of
indictment against them.

Not Born to be Drowned.

The following touching incident is rela-
ted in private letter from Yarmouth,
England, dated the 7th instant, written by
lady, and giving an account Of the dis
astrous results of the late shipwrecks upon
the east coast:
"Last Friday, a dear little babe, sup
posed to be about four months old, was
picked up in the roads off Yarmouth. Its
long clothes prevented it from sinking; it
was fast asleep, and almost benumbed with
cold. There was no trace of any ship in
sight or Of any boat for miles around, and
it was supposed that the vessel from which
it had been thrown had sunk, and that all
hands had perished. The captain who
picked it up lives at Yarmouth, and intends
to rear it as his own.
"Hc allows the people, who come in
crowds, to see it, and l have seen it, among
the rest. It is sweet babe"

news of the accident spread through the
neighborhood, and mothers came rushing
to the scene by scores, all in anguish, but
all, at first, buoyed up by hope. Occasio-
nally mother would recognize the lifeless
form of her child, as it was lifted from the
mass, and then the piercing cry of agony
that would rend the air, oh, God may it
never again be ours to hear And now
the neighborhood was thoroughly aroused,
and crowds Hocked to the scene of the dis
aster. Many of the dead, dying, and
wounded, were taken to the station house,
where the entire lodging room of the police
men was turned into hospital, and their
beds all used as couches for dead bodies of
injured children. This was, indeed, sad
sight parents, whose children were miss
ing, came to confirm their hopes and fears.
Here might be seen lifeless body with an
agonized mother standing over Infringing
her hands in the excess of her grief. There
was father looking the picture of sorrow,
as he beheld the form of loved one that
he had so lately parted with in health, land
thcr further on was family standing
round the bed of little one, whose pain
full writings gave evidence of the patient's
sufferings.
One after another the bodies of the
dead were removed and at length litters
were provided, and the wounded were car
ried away also. 1t was a sad evening in
the Ninth ward. Nearly one hundred
families either mourned the loss of chill
dren, or watched anxiously over the forms
of the wounded The catastrophe was
almost the only topic of conversation
Small knots of men stood on the corners OF
the streets, and recounted the occurrence
of the afternoon. A pail seemed to have
settled on everything, and all Greenwich
village was in mourning.
