JoNATHAN AND HIS LADY LOVE.

We heard rich anecdote the other day,
which we think will bear publication;
Jonathon loved Sallie, and after many mis-
givings, concluded to ask her to have him.
So bracing himself for the occasion, he called
to see her. just as the .old folks were retiring,
preferring to pop the question when mono were
near to witness his confusion, save his love.
Jonathan-Mss Salie, as you love me, and
does the same thing, I've 'cluded to pose toyou
for us to hitch teams, and if you love me, you'll
not say anything else but 'Yes, nothin' shorter
Al that moment, Sallies's countenance dark
ened her whole frame trembled with great e.
motion, then resting her elbows on her lap, the
big tears trckled from beneath her long lashes.
.Jonathaa-( (Supposing the intensity of her
love to be the cause of her violent emotions y
sWhat in the name of all nature makes you
carry on so? If you love me and want to
marry me, why on earth don't you say just
that one thing p
Salie-( Casting at him fond, lovieg glance
and fairly shriebing: y Look a-here Jonathan,
gosh, if you'd eaten them green apples,
what 1 did, last night, you'd known what's
the matter with me. Gosh how it hurts?

ROCKAWAY.

On old Long Islands sea-girt shore,
Many an hour I've whiled away,
In listning to the breakers roar,
That washed the beach at Rockaway,
Transfxed I've stood while natures Tyre
In one harmonious concert broke,
Till catching Its promethean fire,
My inmost soul to rapture woke,
Oh, On old Long Islands dc.
oh how delightful t is to stroll,
Where murmering winds and waters meet
Marking the billows as they roll,
And break resistless at your feet,
To watch young Iris as she dips
Her mantle in the sparkling dew,
Till chased by Sol away she trips,
Der the horizons quivering blue.
Oh On old Long Island &c.
To hear the startling night winds sigh,
As dreamy twilight lulls to sleep,
While the pale moon reflects from high,
Her image in the mighty deep;
Majestic scene where nature dwells,
Profound with everlasting love-,
While her unmeasurcd music sweiis,
The vaulted armament above
Oh On old Long Islands, dc.
