AARON BuRR's WIFE.-The Paris Potric of
a late date has the following
At the last Tulcries ball, the brilliant to-
lette of a stranger, with an incredible number of
diamonds, attracted the attention of all present
In moment the attention changed to the
most intense curiosity, when Louis Napoleon
was observed to accost the lady, and remain
some moments in conversation. The enigma
was soon solved. The lady was the widow of
Mr. Aaron Burr, formerly Vice President of
the United States, with whom Louis Napoleon
was on terms of intimacy whilst i'll that country,
and that at the end of fifteen years he had re-
cocnized the widow of his old American friend
This probably aludes to Madame Jamel the
wealthy second wife of Col. Burr, who obtained
divorce from him a few years previous to his
deccase She owns large landed estate on
the Island of Malta.-Cin. Eng.

The ensuing parody upon the old and popu-
ar song of Ben Bolt" is not only very good
IS parody, but it includes lesson that may
reach the heart of some young inebriate, whom
more serious, sober counsels might fail to reach ::
Oh don't you remember the bays Ben Bolt,
The bows with noses red,
Who drank with delight whenever they met,
And always went drunk to bed?
In the old grave gard, in the edge Of the town,
In corners obscure and lone,
They have gone to rest, & the gay young sprigs
Have dropped off one lc one!
OH don't you remember the jug, Ben Bolt,
And the spring at the foot of the hill,
Where oft we've lain in the summer hours,
And drank to utmost fill!
The Spring is filled with mud, Bent Bolt,
And the wild hogs root around,
And the good old jug, and its whIskey sweet,
Lies broken and spilled OH the ground.
Oh don't YOU remember the karcrn, Ben Bolt,
And the bar keeper kind and true;
And the little nook at the end Of the bar,
Where we swallowed the rum he drew?
The tavern is burst to the ground Bent Bolt,
The bottles are cracked and dry,
And of all the boys who 'spreed it there,
There remain but YOU and l.

Weatern Wing
EDITOR BANNER: send YOU So for the Ban
ner- Il can't go with the Wings this summer for
Governor. If they had nomina ted a State rights
Wing, and one in favor of Free Sugrage, /
would have gone for him; but I won't go
-DOckery. / can't see what the Wings mean by
running such an old fogy, demagogne and fed
crals9t When such man is made the head of
~ I=sax farewell to it. It is strange that
the leaders 0f the Wing party think they car
keep the people in the dark. Scores of anti
Scott Wings will not go for Dockery, and l
must confess the Wing party is bound to go to
pieces.
A reform WIG OF THE WEST.
We were not mistaken in the opinion that
some of the more independent Eastern Wings
would not go for Convention to amend the
State Constitution. The Weldon Patriot, a
respectable Wing Journal, has thus far declined
to raise the name of Gen. Dockery; and we do
not see how Col. Joyner, with his opinions on
the subject, can support him. 1t is rumored
too, that Hugh Collins, Esq, of Chowan is
opposed to Convention, and will take ground
with his usual ability for the legislative mode of
amendment
The East has nothing to gain and every thing
to lose by going into Convention. Let the
people bear in mind that those who arc now
urging them to call Convention, and who pre-
tend to such regard for the basis of representa-
ton, are the very men, or the friends of the
very men who have signalzcd themselves by
assaling the basis.

about 100000. Boston, however, is
richer than either for with population
of only 10000, its property valuation
is no less than s2SO000000. The cx.
tremc wealth Of cities, and the causes
that contribute to this end, are many

pend yearly in dress alone from $4,000

lace veil that costs $500; cashmere
shawl that costs $500. a pin costing
$1,000 bracelets $500, anock lace
$500 and ct ceteras to make up her
entire costume; give us an idea of tho
extravaganza Of city fashionable life
Amid such afluence, pride, concct and
insoience spring up and grow with the
rapidity Of mushrooms in warm foggy
night. To all such, we would commend
for pcrusal the following by j. G.. SAKE.
Because you flourish in worldly affairs,
Don't be naughty and put on airs,
With inSolen; pride of station!
Don't be proud and turn UP your nose

But learn for the sake of the minds re

That wcalthS a bubble that comes and eocs

Turkish War Song.

4 French paper recently stated that a
Turkish poet, Half Entndi, had composed a
war song for his countrymen, somewhat in
the style of the "Marscillasc," creating a
great furore in Corstantinoplc. The London
Punch, however, has been examining the cilu-
sion, aid comes 10 the conclusion that it is
not in the least like the "Maiscilaisc" but
is, notwithstanding, very beautiful and spir-
tied affair, and here it is -

When II friend Of ours whom We call
Agricola, was a boy, lie lived on farm
in Berkshire County, the owner of which
was troubled BY his dog, Wolf The
cur killed his sheep, knowing, perhaps,
that his master was conscientiously OPP
posed to capital punishment, and he
could devise no means to prevent it.
IL can break him of it," said Agricola,
IF you will give me leave"
Thou art permitted" said the honest
farmer and We will let Agricola tell
the story in his own words.
There was a ram on the farm said
Agricola, "as notorious for butting as
the dog was far sheep stealing, and who
stood III as much need of moral suason
as the dog shut Wolf up in the barn
with this old fellow, and the consequence
was that the dog never looked a sheep
in the face again. The ram broke eve.
ry bone in his body literally.
"Wondcrfully uplifted was the ram a
forcsaid by his exploit; he was sure tc
pitch into whomsoever went nigh him
I'll fix him, said |, aud so | did.
rigged an iron crowbar out of hole in
the barn point foremost, and hung al
old hat on the end of it. You cant al
ways tell, when you see hat, whether
there is head in it or not how ther
should raml Aries made at it full
butt, and being a good marksman from
long practice, the bar broke in between
his horns and came out at his tail. Thii
little admonition efIoctually cured hin
of butting"

A FEARFUL WALTz-A correspon-
dent ofthe London Times, in giving an
account of the bonlbardment of Odessa,
says-"When within about 1000 yards,
each steamer delivered tho fire of her
enormous guns, then wheeled round in
circle of about half mile in diameter
each taking up the fro in succession
Thus they kept wheeling and twisting
about like SO many walters. One Of
the English steamers was set on fire by
tho red hot shot from the fortress, but
the fire was got under without much
damage. The dock-yard, which was
set on fire, burnt for two days and two
nights, and vast amount of naval
stores must have been destroyed. Du
ring the fight Russian frigate was sci
on fire, and blew up with, it is thought
a very great loss Of life"

children, upon their small annual sti,
pend. However strange, the fact is
unqucstionable. Ministers generally
have lived, brought up large families,
and been prosperous, upon very made
quate salaries. 1t las been truly
