B1~ IN old gentleman travelling some
years ago, inside the Bath mail had two
ladies, sisters, for companions. The
younger, an invalid soon fell asleep and
the old gentleman expressed his regrets
to see so charming young lady in i'll.

"Ah yes, indeed" sighed the elder
sister, ga disease of the heart"
"Dcar me-" was the sympathetic re-
sponse, " at her her age! Ossi6cation,

Life--A Gem.

"Life we've been long together
Through pleasant and thro' cloudy weather
IT'S hard to part when friends are dear;
Perhaps twill cost sigh, tear,
Yet steal away, give little warning,
Say not, /" Good Might" but in some happier

Bid me " Good Morning"

Drink from the dark and mantlins pool,
With fostering weeds bcgirt,
A deep black draught to the lazy rule
or poverty's king-kfNG DIRT!
Though stoop my head, and trail the skir,
or nv robe in the miry way,
All know that the ragged and old King Dirt
Hath potent and patent sway.
laugh to see
How all devoted my people he,
Groyelling low, and bcpraisins me.
And many friends, wealthy and steadfast
haveI,
Though they oft look askant as they pass me
by;
And many purse. proud burgher, wise
In his generation, on me relies
And many town councillors seeing no hurt;
Sheer down my enemies-proud Of Ming Diit
And laugh on still. while they let me be,
And extend my realm increasingly!
Opponents of Progress, who love the inert,
who claim for inanity Visions desert,
Loving friends. round me cling!
Fill high the bowl, and sing
Long live your lazy king, squalid King Dirt |!
There's iow-roomed house in ruininous
street,
Where filth and penury lovingly meet;
And the cobwebbcd roof, and the rottins
wall,
And the rag -stacd easement dark and small,
Are unheeded there, among many more
So rrctched the homes of the wrctchedly
poor!
A poor worn weaver there works for his
bread
Working on, working on, far in the night
His daughter brcathcs hollowly, lying a-bcd,
And the wasting clay
Lets the spirit play
Over her face with pickering light!
The clock of a neighbor ticks solmemn and
low :,
On the neichboring side Of the crazy wall; /;
And the loom clicks on with an answer SLOW,
And the shuttle flies silently to and fro.
Asit weayes the robe for bridal or ball.
But the loom is stopped; and down by the bed
The father knecls by his dying child;
But yainly he speaks-her time is sped;
No answer there comes to his outcry wild
Fer the child starcs out with her glazed
Till the eyes turn back-and she silently
dies!
And they call it Fever,
Putrid or low;
But and the weaver
Both of us know
That the fetid wcll-watcr, and stcaming
styes,
And the choked drains gases. that unseen
rise,'
Subtle and STILL
Sure and slow,
Certain to kill
with an unheard blow,
Are the f.nds who poisoned that inaidens
breath,
And cling to her still as she sleeps in death
And the weaver, haggard, and worn to the
bhnc,
with ciasped hands and despairing moan,
Rno,ring the poison that turks in the room,
Still doggardly stays till he meets his doom
laugh to think,
How they greedily drink
or the poisoned cup
TIN they drink tup!
And ever to time honorcd filth revert.
And love TO the death their old King Dirt!

OF when 81 DC JJJ Was III BOiu.
There is quite an active demand at pri-
vate sale for State Stocks and Railroad Bonds, Of
first. class, for investment.
Messrs. Barring, Brothers & Co, in their circular
afford the following information on Americ an stocks
TIE year which has just expired has been one OF
regular, but not OF very large investments IN Anerl
can Stocks nor could II be expected tnat tne sunGen
and extraordinary demand produced oy the contl-
mental events Of lsie should be continued On an
equally large scale for many years, unless some esn
stimulus were given TO IL while the high Prices aud
limited duration of the Federal stocks and OF those
of some leading States, have checked ooth specuIa-
ton and the temptation Of nigh rate OF interest
These high prices have been maintained by Inc
more general appreciation of the principal American
securities, as well as by the cessation OF re1ucnoh
in the issues. Our fresh supplies nave mostly con-
sisted OF Maryland Sterling Bonds, virginia per

been 20 attract 10 more less degree, Pennsylya-

range of prlces will be moreicependen, on the sIdIe

The Bonds of American Railway Companies nave
not yet obtained much currency IN the LONDON mar
ket ard where investments are desired the orIers
have been transmitted 20 the United states. Capt.
tasts here, although they often take shares IN Tor
eign Railways, have never seemed TO Ike the de-
bentures at fixed interest Of such companies, and
even in this country the debentures only OF entirely
