Addressed to the Baccllantc OF Gait'
BY A LADY OF NORFOLK.

Bright, Joyous daughter of the Song ana Lance
With vine leaves wreathed about tiny Iaoiai

We gaze upon thy beauty till a trance
Steals Ger us. and thy features seem 10 glow
With life. What magic power is thlne' 'ha'
thou 10. .a. ,r>.;'~ 80 :;
Shouldst thus eachain our senses with the mish'
OF thy surprising beauty, till We bow
Before thee, and the heart with found aenSn.,
Pays homage to thee as thine undlsPuteo rlgh''
Is it the smiles that round thy features play,
Wreathing with sun-b beams lip and cheek and eye =!
Or the light tresses which the zephyrs gay
Seem to dishevel as they whisper by
Is it the faultless neck and bearing high
Of the proud head ?-Or is it, Peerless One,
That Niodesty and conscious Beauty vie
On thy fair cheek to claim thee, each, her own
Neither prevails-and thou art Beauty's Paragon
Yet not to thee, fair Creature, but the mind
That did create thee do we bend the knee :
The Child of Inspiration that hath twlned
His dreams and visions into forms like thee.
Thou'st stol'n Promethean fire, and 1t may be
Thou'lt pay the penalty-yet struggle on,
Like the bold Titan apng Deity,
Breathing thy spirit into senseless stone,
And making thee name for ages vet unknown.

SHOWING THE DEAD.-There is q curl
Gus custom at Havana of laying out bodies
in state during the night before burial
They are placed close to the open window
fronting the street, on couch raised iour
or five feet from the ground. The corpse,
is surrounded with high wax tapers, and
the whole room illuminated. Frequently.
when returning from a tertulia, or ball, !
have been startled by seeing the affixed
and rigid features of some old lady or gen.
tleman, dressed in their best attire, and aP
parently reclining before the wlndGw. 1t
used to appear an unnecessary mocSery Oh

suit of clothes, with tight patent leather
boots and white neckcloth.

ANEcDorE.-Everybody who has read
the Pickwcl papers tand who has not ,
must remember the funny story of Sam
Weller concerning the jaior of the Fleet,
who, having long permitted prisoner to
spend his evenings without The walls,
threatened once If he didn't come in earli-
er to lock him ogt altogether. A similar
warn is told Of most worthy old gentle
man, whom we will call the Major, once
placed in charge of the Penitentiary Of the
District of Columbia. The appointment
was made by the President and the Major,
not little elated By his new dignity, IN
vlted some friends 10 witness his investi-
ture. which he proposed to signalize by a
speech to the. inmates of the establishment,
They accordingly accompanied the Major
10 the Penitentiary, in the inner court of
which these individuals Of secluded habits
were drawn Up in line, The Major step
ped, out, and with graceful flourish of the
hand. commenced his address. "Gentle-
men !-hem-No," SAID. he "you'rc not
Fellow-citizens !-hem--No
I,ll swear you're not fellow-citizena. Con-
victs have just been appo.ated.by the
President of these United States. Warden
of this Penitentlary. Now / wish to say to
you that 1t is my design to have everything
conducted here in the most orderly man

derstand that the first rascal of YOU that
makes a fuss shall be kicked out of the es-
iaJlshment-he shan't s'ay here at aH."

At the town of Derr got accidentally into
little adventure that might have proved
extremely unpleasant. Small as the place
was, l contrived to lose my way, and be-
came entangled amonga number Of garden
walls and narrow passages. Proceeding
along one of these fancied | heard female
voices, and presently emerging into sha-
dy court, beheld a young Circassian in the
bath, attended by. black female slave
In Christendom the lady would certainly
have shrieked and brought forth all the
household in moment; but her oriental
education had taught her great caution.-
Casting on me look of surprise, as she
stood upright in the marble basin, as white
almost as The marble itself, she asked me
how came hlther. replied that | had
lost my way, and knew not how | had come
nor how to depart. Perceiving my per-
plexity to be-, unfeigned, she replied:-
STRANGER, you are in much peril, but fol-
low the slave, and she will conduct you 10
a place of safety" So saying she waved
her hand towards a dark, corridors through
which, after bowiag to the lady, | followed
the negress, tilf we reached a. small door
opening into the street. AS it would have
been extremely awkward to meet any of
the gentlemen of the establishment within
the walls, as they might have shot me first.
and then inquired how came there, ! felt
considerably eased by escape.-Egyptian

AUTHORSHIP OF THE BIBLE.-There are
in all siXly-siX books, which comprise the
volume OF Holy Writ, which are attributed
to more than thirty different authors or wri-
ters of the whole.
Half oI the New Testament was compos.
ed by ST. Paul, and the next largest writer
is the gentle and beloved ST. John. With
the single exception of Paul, neither histo-
ry nor tradition has testified that these
powerful thinkers and writer's ever enjoyed
the benefits of education, or that they were
trained 10 scholarship and learning; YET
how ably have they written, what eminent
characters have been chronicled by them,
and what great events recorded-both fol-
time and eternity
Jeremiah is sorrowful Isaiah sublime
David poetical; Daniel sagacIous: Habak-
kuk and Hagai denunciatory; but they all
seem to have exercised their natural wits,
under the influence of divine direction and
inspiration. Moses, with his vast knowl-
edge and profound intelligence-the legis-
later, the relormer, the deliverer-com-
menced the work aud John, with Ills depth
OF feeling and exquisit tenderness and sim
picity, completed it,

THE, PEASANT AND his HoRsE.-A peas
ant had an old worn-out horse, which be
allowed to go about at his ease, taking care,
to put him into good grass fields; and when
in the stable, he gave him plenty Of hay
and fodder; in fact, he treated him With!
all the affection and respect that he would
an old friend. a neighbour blamed HIM
for this, and wondered that he should take
such care of an old worn-out animal. The
peasant replied, that a good man is merci.
tul to his beasts, and that his horse having
served him and his family for many years.
he felt it to be both duty and pleasure
to provide for the poor brute's comfort and
ease in his latter days.

DISTANCE TO THE SUS.-Imagine rail-
road from here to the sun. How many
miles is>the sun from us? Why, if we were
to send baby in an express train, going
necessarily hundred miles an hour, with
out making any stoppages, the baby would
grow to be boy, the boy would grow to be
man. the, man would grow old and die
without seeing the sun; for it is distant
more than hundred years from us. But
what is this compared to Neptune's distance?
Had Adam and Eve started by our railway
to go from Neptune to the sun, at the rate
of fifty miles an hour, they would not have
got there yet; for Neptune is more than
six thousand years from the centre of our
system.--Househ0M Words.

Origin of the Word Quiz.

Very few words ever took such run, Oh
were saddled with so many meanings, as
this monosyllable and, however strange
the word, It is still more strange that not
one of our photographers, from Baily to
Johnson, ever attempted an explanation,
or gave derivation of it. /. The reason Is
very obvious {; it is because it has no. mean
ing, nor is it derived from any language IN
the world ever. knowii; from the Babal
Confusion to this day. When Richard Da-
ly was patenise of the Irish theatres, he
spent,the evening of Saturday in compa.
ny with many Of the wits and men of fash
ion of;ths day betting was introduced,
when the manager staked large sum that
he would hear spoken, all through the prin-
cipal streets of. Dublin, by certain hour
next day, Sundays a word having no mean
ing, and being derived from no known lam
guage. Wagers were laid, and stakes de,
posted. Daily repaired to the theatre, and
despatched ali the servants and supernu-
meralies with the word "Quiz, which they
chalked on every door and every shop.
window in town. Shops being shut all next
day, everybody going to and coming from
their different places OF worship saw the
word, and everybody repeated it. SO that
"Quiz" was heard all through Dublin
The circumstance of so strange word be,
ing on every door and window caused
much surprise; and ever since, should
