rRoM THE GERMAN or EMANUEL GElBEL.
They said to hor, " lie loves thee not, he
speaks
False VOWS, he plays but with thee" Then
she gricvcd
And bowed her head, and tear, pearlcd from
her checks,
Like dew from roses. Oh, that she be-
lievcd
mood,
His heart grew hayward no. TO show his
sorrow,
lie sang, and played, and drank, and laughed
Then wcpt in secret till the morrow.
a. liz is not false, give him thy hand again -
Thus good angel still her heart doth move
He, too, yet feels, mid bitterness and pain
:" She loves you still oh, she is still your
love!
Speak one kind word let her speak one 10 you,
And then the srel that parts you will be
broken"
They wcnt-thcy mot-but What will pride
not do !
That single word remained unspoken
They parted, and as in the minister's choir
Doth die away the altar lamps red glow
A first grows DINNER, then the sacred fire
Burns bright once more, at length expires
twas 50;
Lamcntcd first, then longcd for bitterly,
And thrn-forgot.cn, love within them
persisted;
Till all illusion vain it seemed to be
That each the other eer had cherished
Twas only sometimes, in the moons pale
CLEAN,
They'd from their pillow start twas wet
with tears,
And wet with tears their face. They'd had
alrcam,
hardly know Of what, And then the
years
or bliss, long past, came to their memory;
And how they'd vainly doubted how they d
parted,
And now were sundcred SO eternaly-
o God forgive these stubborn hearted

o'cr the edge of the earth, and, at the

The Southern Literary Messenger contains
the following comic poem by Thackcray, writ
ten, VIC are told, one morning last Spring in
the Messenger office, during call made up.
on Mr.. Thompson by the author:
Sorrows of Werther.
Werther had a love for Charlotte
Such as words could never utter
Would you know how first he met her !
She was cutting bread and butter
Charlotte was married lady,
And moral man was Wcrthcr,
And for all the wealth of Indies,
Would do nothing that might hurt her
SO he sighed, and pined, and oglcd.
And his passion boiled and bubblcd,
Till he blew his silly brains out,
And no more was by them troubled.
Charlotte having seen his body
Borne before her on shutter,
Like well conducted person,
Went on cutting bread and butter.

BUrFALoEs-A member of Governor
Stcvens's party, now exploring for Il
Northern route for the Pacific Railroad
relates the following rs one Of the in
cidents already experienced:
"Onc day, after march Of some
ten miles, the Butialoos were reached
They were before and on each side of
the train. For miles ahead, it seemed
one vast drove-yard They were estim-
ated by some as high as 100000 200,-
600 is considered very low estimate.
Drawing up the train at our usual halt
at noon, We saw large herd about half a
mile ahead. The hunters, six in number
we're Immediately despatched, well
mounted ON spare horses reserved for
that especial purpose. and the whole
train had AN opportunity Of witnessing a
buffalo hunt. The hunter dashed in a
mongst the herd, picked out the fattest
of the COWS, aud then separating the Sc
lected ones from the herd, soon despai ch.
ed them. In less than All hour the wag-
ous were but small distance from the
route to receive the choice pieces Of the
buffalo
In the next two days march the hunt.
ers were kept some distance ahead tc
keep OFF the buffaloes it was the only
way safe passage of the train could be
insured through this sea of flesh. The
pack mules aud spare animals following
in the train, too numerous to be separate
ly led, were hard to control, and, despite
every precaution and care, one horse ant
four mules were lost, they getting min
gled with herd of buffalo. Every cf
fort was made to reclaim them, houri
spent in their attempted recovery Thes'
efforts were entirely useless"

PLEAsuREs OF TRAVEL IN AMERICA.
The philosophical patience with which
Americans take those moving accidents
by food and field, reminds one Of the
Stole Of olden time Fer instance when
the roads are bad it is usual for the pas
sengers to get out and walk until the
travel becomes better. and in case of the
coach getting fixed, lie, stuck up to the
hub in stiff mudrut, or keeled over,)
the common expedicnt is to get fence
rail, or two or three, and by Il judicious
application of the lover power and n
vigorous use Of the thong, the passscn-
gers and horses commonly get all right
again; but frequently the wheels require
to be pricd out SO often, that when the
stake-fcnce is not at hand, passenger
carries rail along on his shoulder as a
portable avail against an emcrgcncy
An instance, however, is mentioned
of IN over sensitive hoosior, who had to
walk ten or twelve miles with the mud
half way up his cowhide boots and who
had done good service with his rail, but
who felt little " riled aud kind Of dis.
posed to talk right out about the darnod
thing" and on coming into the village
and proceeding to the coach agents Of
fec. threw down his pole Indignantly.
aud addressing that functlonory said
You're agent, guess -
" YES. Sir
well, look here I'm passenger by
that stage, stranger, and | want to 60
back again to-morrow-but though |
don't object to pay my fare and walk
through, I'm consarned if believe in
having to carry rail Casen's 1ico
