Mary's Lips are Red with Roses.

BY MAI C. w. PArrES, U. S. ARMY.
Mary's lips red with roses,
Yet how cold The words they say
Joy on Mary's cheek reposes,
Yet that cheek is turned away.
Still. for all this careless seeming,
Maiy's eye serenely beaming, ling,
Shines like starlight through my dream
Night and day.
Mary lips may learn their folly
When the hour is past for bliss;
And her cheek of melancholy
Nainy turns in search of this.
When she finds how humors vary,
Then. perhaps. may frugal Mary
Mourn the hour she was so chary

u We see in the English papers curious
anecdote OF Wellington, quoted from the New
Quarterly Review:
g Some years since. the duke was sitting at his
library table, when the door opened and, with
out, any announcement. in stalked figure of
sir gularly i'll omen. Who're you = asked the
duke, in his short. dry manner. looking up with
out the least change of couptenance, upon the
intruder. Il am Apollyon.' What want 2 L

Bhged 10 do it to-day | am not told the dav

inconvenient-very busy-great many letters to

correspondence. The maniac appalled, proba-
bly, by the stern. unmovable old man, back ed

SERMON FOR MODERATE DRINKERs.-A Scotch
parson once preached long sermon against
dram-drinking-a vice very prevalent in his par
ish-and from which, report said, he was not
himself wholly exempt. Whatever We do, breth-
rem, do 1t with moderation, and above ALL be
moderate in dram-drinking When We get up
ye may tack dram, and another Just before
breakfast, and perhaps another just after, but
dlnna be always dramdrinking. If you are out
IN the morn, ye may just brace yourself up with
another dram, and perhaps another before lun-
cheon, and some, fear, tack another after, which
is very blameable, but dinna always be dram
ming away. Naebody can scrupe for one just
before dinner, and when the desert is brought
IN, and after it is tame ava, and perhaps ane and
1T may be twa, in the afternoon, just to keep you
drowsng awa-but dinna be always dram,
dram, drumming. Afore tea, and after tea, and
between tea and supper, is no more than is right
and good but let me caution ye brethren not
TO be always dram, drumming. Just when We
start for bed, and ye ready to pop into it, and
perhaps when We wake in the night to tack a
dram or twa is no more than a christian man
may lawfully do; but, brethren, let me caution
you not To drink more than | have mentioned, or
maybe ye may pass the bounds of moderation

Alleged Bribery,

j. B. Packer, Esq, DIR. Geo. Weisel
and Charles Weaver, the latter one of the
present Commissioners of northumberland
county, were arrested on Friday last, on
a charge OF attempting to bribe Christian
Albert, one of the Commissioners of the
same county, for the purpose of inducing
him to give his official sanction towards a
subsc ription of $500, 900 by the county of
Northumberland to the stock of the Sus-
quchanna Railroad Company.
The above paragraph originated in a
communication in the Danville papers,
but as we find it travelling the rounds, it
Is the merest act if justice to state, that
this prosecution is utterly groundless, and
originated in personal malevolence and
in dishonorable efforts to create and excite
hostility to the Susquehanna railroad
The warrant was issued by Rush town
ship magistrate-Which township, living
opposite to DanyilIe, Mr.. Packer, when
IN the Legislature, had prevented from
becoming part of Montour county-and
contrary to established usage, required the
defendants to be brought before himself
and no other justice. Commissioner Al
bert was himself the only witness, yet the
most searching and point blank interrog-
atorieS failed to elicit from this willing
witness any testimony whatever to Grim
nate the defendants, or even furnish
grounds of suspicion against them, yet the
justice held them in 50, 600, to appear and
answer at the August Court in Sunbury.
Some few Courts ago, bills of indictment
were sent up against the same defendants,
for the same alleged offence, and suppor-
ted by the self-same testimony, but were
promptly ignored by the Grand Jury for
want of evidence
Some cowardly, anonymous CORES
pondent Of the New Berlin Times, makes
similar insinuations against the Union
County Commissioners, evidently with
the design of reviying the exploded Re-
pudiation excitement. A call was made
at our last Court for the alleged brtber and
bri5ed to meet face to face in public, which
they did in the presence of large num-
Der of persons, but the accuser utterly
failed to show any proof Of the truth of
the charge.-Le1ciSbwg Chronicle.
