CURIOUS FAcT-The National lnteligencer
in remarking on the fact of the gradual change
OF the character of the United States Senate, from
a mere privy counsel of the President to dec-
ded deliberaive body, says, that in the first ses-
sion of the first Congress, President Washington
came personally into the Senate, when tney
were engaged in executive session. and made
his nomination himself. He took the Vice Pres
ident's seat, and frequently addressed the Sen
ate on the executive business they had before
them, and often exercised an influence, and
almost control, that would be considered
highly improper in our days. This practice,
however, did not long continue.

By WILLIAM ALLINGHAM.

Up the airy mountain.
Down the rushy glen,
We daren't go a hunting
For fear Of little men;
Wee folk. good folk,
Trooping altogether;
Green jacket, red cap,
And grey cocks fealhear'
Down along the rocky shore
Some make their home;
They live on crispy PANCAKES
OF ye low tide foam
Some in the reeds
Of the black mountain-lake,
With frogs for their watch-dogs,
All night awake.
High on the hilltop
The old King sits
He is now so old and grey
He's nigh lost his wits,
With bridge of white mist
Colunlbkill he crosses,
On his stately journeys
From Siievelcague to Rosses
Or going up with music
On cold starry nights.
To sup with the Queen
OF the gay NortAen Lights.
They stole little Bridget
For seven years long;
When she came down again,
Her friends were all gone.
They took her lightly back.
Between the night and morrow.
They thought that she was fast asleep.
But she was dead with sorrow
They have kept her ever since
Deep WI hin the lakes,
On bed OF flagon leaves,
Watching till she wakes.
BY the craggy hillside,
Through The MOSES bare,
They have planted rhorn-trees
For pleasure here and there.
Ifa man so daring
TO dig one up in spite,
He shall find the ihornles set
in his bed at night.
Up the airy mountain,
Down the rushy glen,
We darent go bunting
For fear Of lille men,
Wee folk, good folk.
Trooping all together;
Green jacket red cap,
And grey cocks feather!
