LOVE.

Every one has admired Parthsnies oenn'
ton Of love 10 Insomar:
"vbss Love d. Il thou would'st be taught,
Thy heart must teach alone:
Two souls with but . single thought,
Two hearts that best - one"
This has been parodied by some proiane
critic and cynic, thus:
"Love 10 nightmare with one foo';
Two children with one bum;
Two turnips with single root;
Two cabbage heads q one."

NEW YORK HERALD.-A corresp md.
ent of Virginia paper leads US into the
recent sudden change in this Infamous
paper of its sentiments with regard to
the Know Nothings:
You may have noticed recently, SAYS
the writer, that the New York Herald
has been rigged out in 'know Nothing
costume, and has become one of the
staunchest advocates of the order. In
will be remembered that the. Know
Nothings last summer had no more de-
nunciatory opponent than the Herald.
1t not only denounced them editorially,
but copied articles against their organi-
zation from all the leading papers that
spoke out against the movement. This
sudden change of tune, it is rumorcd
here lin Washington is the result Of q
bargain struck between Mr.. Hudson,
the head man at the Herald office. and
the head of the Grand Council in New
York city. The terms of the bargain
are, that in consideration of the SUI, Of
$40, 900 paid, cash in hand, the Herald
is to enlist under the Know Nothing
banner, and fight valorously through the
next presidential campaign. This. Of
course, has not been done without the
privity Of Mr.. Bennett. 2a
