Timothy SAT meditating by the cradle,
until, to his great delight, the baby opened
its eyes. 1t was now perfectly good-na-
tured, and smiled at him, and sucked its
thumo, as though it had quite forgotten
its late wrongs. He held out his hands
the baby manifested a decided disposition
to accept them--and the next moment, the
delighted Timothy, with the child tightly
grasped in highly novel and as onishing
manner, paraded up and down the room
with all the feelings of a conqueror. The
baby, was satisfied, and lsuked at him ap-
Provingly. .a .-.I ...t t..
1t seemed to be particularly fond oi
snatching at things, and, having cornered
Timothy somewhere near the Fireplace,
made frantic grasps at an ancient china
bowl, that had descended to Mrs. Cornwall
from her great-grandmother Every morn
II with q reverentai care; it was SO thin
as TO be almost transparent. and an objec
of especial admiration to all their visitors
Timothy gently disengaged the baby's
HANDS, and tried to divert its attentions; bu
the little tyrant twisted its lip in manner
that made its guardian shake in his shoes
= aRd he felt in very much the same pre-
dicament as does man who is perched or
fence with tiger awaiting him on ons
sde, and a lion on the other. The baby
struck the first notes, and Timothy, cowari
as he was, with anervous SSH" drew nea
again to the enchanted spot.

half crying, 81 almost wish that Martha ha
taken the baby with her-I had no idea q
its behaving in this way!'
"That's jist the tricks Of babies" observ
ed Sally, who had been drawn from tn
kitchen Sy the uproar, 'you never kno,

and then. as the flames had quite dissp-
tpeared,departed to their respective homes
Tinothy's wretched plight now called Tor
much sympathy from his wife, who put

both sat down and watched Sally, who was

down the chimney, and grumbling as she

The young mother burst in upon poor

A few days afterward, our friend Timo-

foot in pudding-bag, cJmpoused of wool
and flannel, the putting of said foot to the
ground being ap..issicaL impossbilily, and

A very strange game has been going on
at Washington for ter days past. Some
eight or Ten members, by no means dis
tinguished f. talent or weight Of charac-
ter, and in the face and eyes of the anti
Nebraska professions by virtue of which
they obtained their seats in the House,
have undertaken to dictate the choice o!
speaker. Against the sense Of an over
whelming majority Of that opposition Of
which they profess 20 form part, they
seek to impose upon the House Speaker
like hemseives-lukewarm and neither hot
nor coda Speaker such as in times like
these is fl only to be spewed out Of the
peoples mouth. Such 10 the secre: of the
delay in the choice Of a Speaker; such is
the nauseous doss which eight - ten polit-
icsi quacks are striving to pour down the
throa's of the House and the nation.
One hundred and FIVE members OF the
House have resolved not to submit to be
thus throt, ed. We give here their names

OCTOBER.
BY KATE HARRINGTON.

. .. BY KATE HARRINGTON.
1t is dreamy October.
Co The happiest time ..,
Il For artists to pencil . y,e
Or poets to rhyme; ,. .t...
The season best suited
d For those who still yearn
For the beautiful days
That can never return.
How oft, like wild truants,
f.sl Our thoughts will fly back,
To muse at the mile stones
On memory's track. ,..t. t.....
To chant their regrets
In a low, mourniul tune,
For the rapturous moments ..
That vanished too soon.
Thsre, the echoes of words
That were breathe in the past,
Seem the accents themselves,
Like the shadow that's cast
From that promise OF mercy
THAT great, bended bow,
Whose arrows, bright rain drops,
Fall harmless below. ...
1t is strange that such season
Our sorrow beguiles.
When natures bright face
Is all dimpled with smiles2
When the cold chilling north-wind
Forgetting to moan,
Has changed its shrlll voice
To the zephyr's soft tone?
When the birds OF the forest
Seem lost in amaze
To see the return
or these sun-sniny days? ,o..
When, with light wings extended,
They pause in their fight,
To wonder if spring time
Has burst on their sight2
