FIRST Love.

Scarce the breath of fifteen summers had famed
. my grlish brow,
When Love came tripping round my path, and
- DER me gan to throw
Her strange, sweet, witching magic, making all
the future bright,
And painting all the flowers along, with her gay,
mystic light.
! Yes, all along my path seem'd touch'd as with a
a fairy'swand;
The birds sang sweeter music, and the air was
mild and bland.
The bright, green foliage OF the trees, each shrub
and beauteous flower,
Seemed brea,hing incense pure and sweet, as
from heavenly bower.
But something whispered, "Loys Young ereaEais
but 4 lspey bright, 4. \.
soon lis sweet, enchanting will vanish
from your sight
And leave your heart as lone and cold, as II Il
meier had known
The hopes and joys that THIS bright dream hal
round your pathway strewn."
But mol that syren's voice was false, its rays arr
still as bright,
As when they FIST Shone on my heart with snci
bewitchiLg light; tl
Yet sometimes Doubt, with sable wing, has fow1
across my sky,
But never once, within my heart I've though

The Verdict,

After hearing all the testimony which could
be procured; the Coroncrs jury rendered the
following verdict:
"After duly considering the evidence in the
late collision case, the jury ind-lst. That the
special orders issued to conductors running ex-
curson and other trains between Baltimore and
a point on the Susquehanna rail road, known
as Riders Switch on the day of the 4th of
July last, should have been more explicit on the
