WHAT IT CosTs TO BoMDARD CRY
That war is an expensive occupation the
British Government and People are be.
ginning to understand by means Of aug
mented taxes, and the opening of the
fire of the Allies suggests calculation
as to the cost of the iron balls whi@ have
been thrown into Sevastopol by the FIVE
hundred cannon which have yomited
them in what Gortschakotf called /" an
internal fire." The accounts BY the Asia
represent that each of these guns fired
one hundred and twenty rounds a day,
which gives a total for the five hundred
of sixty thousand rounds. This FIRE had
been continued for thirteen days, making
an aggregate ofseven hundred and eighty
thousand missiles rained upon the city.
The weight of the shot fred from the
guns of the Allies varies probably from
nineteen to one hundred and forty
pounds, and of the shells from fifteen to
one hundred and ten pounds, and forty
five pounds would probably be a low es.
innate for an average. This would give
daily delivery Of iron to the Russians
amounting to two million seven hundred
thousand pounds, and a total for the
thirteen days Of thirty:fue million one
hundred thousand pounds-the prime
cost d which, in the rough, at the ave-
rage price of pig iron in England for the
last year, was not less than three hun
dred and thirteen thousand three hun
dred and eighty dollars. This is, o.
course, without any regard to the enor-
nous cost oftransportation to the Crimea
Ifthe cannon balls fired from the All
led lines during the thirteen days, were
rolled into rail bars, weighing sixty
pounds to the yard, the bars would ex
tend three hundred and thirty two miles
or if laid as railroad would suffice fol

THE MAY QUEEN.
by MARY E. SHREDDER.

by MARY E. SHREDDER.
The May Queen danced upon the hills,
Rob'd in spring hued attire;
Her voice laugh'd many lovely thrills,
Imbu'd with poets fire.
Her curls were like soft mists Of gold,
As in the suns fair light,
They glcam'd in many an airy fold,
Upon her shoulders white.
Upon her head a gaudy wreath
OF flowers sweet and wild,
'T'werc gathcr'd on the sloping heath,
In the break of waters mild.
Crimson and white and red and blue,
Bedeckd her sunny head
Pluckcd where the cooling zcphyrs blew,
And playing fOunts were fed.
Her cheeks were red, and very red,
As sweet she laugh'd and sang,
Her twin lips like RUBIEs WE'D,
The twittring music rang.
Those laughing eyes with rougish gleo,
She glanced out DER the plain,
And in their azure depths sea
Dane'd gladly forth again.
Her little feet in slippers cas'd,
How delicate and small;
How taper in their tiny form;
How light their dewy fall
Little sister faires in their fawn
Their step was like the night,
Which dances on from dark till dawn,
In ever noiscless flight.
How light she wav'd upon the green,
Tripp'd DER the verdant plain;
Her shining locks like golden sheen
Showing their light again.
Thus trippd she gaily as she sang,
Upon the rolling green;
One year Wen gaze upon the past,
Then greet again our queen.

nT A lady of fashion will sooner ex-
cuse freedom, flowing from admiration,
than slight resulting from indifference.
The first offence has the pleasing apology
of her attractions; the last is bold and
without an alluviation. But the mode in
which she disposes of the two, only shows
that The love of admiration is stronger than
her sense of propriety.
