CONCLUDED
Fourteen years more passed rapidly
away. Judge Cameron had resigned
his seat on the bench, sold his possess
IONS in County, and disappeared
from the neighborhood in wbic; his nc.
ire life had been passed. None knew
the reason for sll this change. 1t was
sudden and ex. cuted wits as much rap
idity as it was conceived. His place ~
the county and in public lite was occu-
pied by John Bromley, who by dnt Of
political management, had contrived to
be elected to Congress and almost, al
though not quite, to be appointed to the
judgeShip made vacant 10y the resigua-
tion OF Mr.. Cameron.
Bromley was in no respect the equal
Of the latter. He was in all respects
bis inferior. He was a man Of low in
stincts and low associations. Educated, +,
indeed, and accomplished rs the world

The Early Ages.

sY GENEVA.
In the carly ages,
When the world was young,
When no cares nor stages
Whirled our hills among;
When tent would answer
For dwelling place;
When to earn ones living
Was not disgrace;
When the whole creation
Did not go by steam;
When Of silks and velvets
Ladies did not dream.
Then mans tastes were simple,
And his cares were few;
Tnen old fashioned garments
Were as good as new.
Then nan was valued
For his sterling worth;
Then Of brainless dandies
There was quite o dearth.
II ua mar could relish
tttE.nf. ~bolesonic fare,
Thopgh II !, table offered
Nothing rich nor rare.
Williams were not angels
In those good old times.
Worsh;rped for their money.
Courted for their dimes.
Women did not barter
Comfort, health, and ease,
That their sunny apparel a.
Othereyes might please.
Then no stiffened sideboards
Murdered monkeys ears:
Hair dye was not thought Of,
In those early years.
All no foolish fashions
HoaIed the women then;
Rum, cigars, and dickies
Troubled not the men.
II man was minus
Sunday coat or hat.
Why, nobody thought him
Any worse for that.
He might 60 to worship
God. if he should choose,
Though his pants were threadbare,
And he had no shoes.
Rare old e,rly ages, ... .
Joyous times were they;
Would that had lived in
Such happy day.

NEw YonK, Jan. II, 1855.
DEAR SIR, The beautiful residence of
John Appleton Haven at Fort W,shinu,on
in this city, WAS entirely consumed by fire
on Saturday morning Last. The most mel.
ancholy circumstance attending the dcstruc.
ton OF this magnificent dwelling, is the
loss of three of Mr.. HAvcn's daughters, all
young ladies grown, who pcrished in The
ruins. a servant girl also prrshcd The
house cost over $4,000 Mr.. Haven is of

chants in Beaver street.
Money Is very scarce here, and the poor
oi Ne" York are suffering drcadful!y. A
petition has been sent to the Ma, or uud
Council for their relief To give you some
idea OF the extreme want of those even who
are able and willing to work on the oc.
casion of the Mayor giving them work, the
pulling down of oil buildings in the burnt
district, for which they would receive 81 per
day, 4 meeting of the iaborers was held. and
resolution WAS adopted, to the effect. that
one man must no, work more IN an one day
t':us TO give chance TO the others. This
resolution Was adopted, although I5o c,uld
be employed each day. This will show
you how difficult it Is to procure work, and
the great number seeking it. Mario and
1rlsl gave concert the Other night for the
benefit of the poor, the receipts of which
netted $4,000. By the by, speaking of
Mario and Grisi, it's said the great Miss
Couts who had fIIlen so desperately in love
with Mario, is no other than an old woman
Of this city, who IIlck t engaged to ccun.

might create n fIrorec, and attract Yisi,ors

The hard times have given rise to more

Notwithstanding the great scarcity OF
money, light literature takes exceedingly
well. Ruth Hill, by Fanny Fern, meets

Our Medical School are in qnite -four
ishing condition this winter. although the
number of students is not quite so great rs
it was last session. Between dissipation
and hard study the students have busy
time Of il. Cut loose from the restraints of
the guardianship Of the home circle aud ex.
posed at dangerous period Of life to all
the temptations Of city life, many buoyaut
spirit becomes the slave and too often the
victim OF dissipation, and the idol and hope
OF many fond parent Is wrecked on the
ocean of life, before he is even aware of the
presence Of danger. AS the period of ex.
animation preparatory TO graduation ap-
proaches, il Is amusing to note the terrible
anxiety under which tie candidates labor
The dread ,isage OF grim professor is al.
ways haunting them. They read and think
Of bones, sinews, muscles, nerves pbysic
and skeletons all day and dream of them all
night.
One Of the students Of the Jefferson COL
lege, met with a sad fate ihe other morning.
a FIRE occurred in the lower part Of his
boarding house at an early hour in fbe morn.
