THE SPRAKERsnlP.--Thc New York Her.
aid Of the 9th furnishes the following OF the
contest for Speaker:
II will be seen that Pennington is dropped,
and that the Northern Ani.Nebraska and
Know Nothing forces are very tendcrly Hue
tna'ing between Campbell, Banks, and Fuller.
The party difference between the two leading
free soil competitors is exactly this:--
l.. ID. Campbell, Of Ohio, A. N. X. NJ; N. p.
Banks, Jr., of Massachusetts, X. NJ A. NJ
Anti.Nebraska and Know Nothing, or Know
Nothing and Anti.Nebraska-which is n
mighty nice distinction; Tor the whole issue is
now with the Northern majority whether the
Speaker shall be A. N. X. N. or X. N. A. N.
Everything depends upon the precedence
of the initials A. N. or X. N, in their combi-
nation; for while A. N. X. N. signifies fam
ing black republican with Know Nothing pro-
clvties, the order reversed 10 h. N. A. N.
means full bloodcd Know Nothing, with a
streak of the Ant. Nebraska coloring down his
back. The same initials in another shape-N.
a. X. N.-ilustratc the principles of Richard.
son observation-disclosures Anti.know Nothing.
Yet again, the same letters thus arranged--K.
N. a. N.--indicate the position of Marshall
Know Nothing Nebraska Absolutely. Thus
we see that this contest for Speaker hinges
upon this, that or the other combination Of
four cabalistic letters of the English alpha.

A DlFFERENcE OF OpiSloS.-Two preachers
were recently in the same pulpit in Georgia.
While one was preaching, he happened to
say, "When Abraham built the ark" The
one behind him s,rove to correct his blnnder
by saying out loud, "Abraham wrrni thar
But the speaker pushed on, needless Of the
interruption, and only took occasion shortly
to repeat, still more decidedly, 81 say, when
Abraham built the ark" "And say" cried
out the other, "AJraham warnl thar" The
preacher was too hard to be beaten down in
this way, and addressing the people, eyclain,-
ed, with great indignation, IL say Abraham
was thar, or thar abouis."

AN ACROSTIC.

The following beautiful acrostic was writ
ten to Miss CAROLINA PoINDExrEG n few weeks
before her marriage to Joseph w. Peace:
Congenal minds wheneer they meet
Amid the dense and giddy throng,
Remember well that friendships sweet
Once bound their hearts together strong
Long you have been away from here
In other haunts your footsteps strayei-
Now you've returned to friends most dear,
And will remain, trust dear maid.
Perhaps you will reserve for me
; One place yet in your memory;
| with delight remember well
Near you my bosom used to swell.
Dear Miss, hope you'll ever see
Ecstatic bliss-felcty
Nerxes, the great, shall guide my steps
Till his fame shall proudly ascend
Even now, sweet girl, these lines accept
Remember that am your friend.
This amiable, excel lent and useful lady, on
whose name the above was written, is now
sleeping with the dead. Her sweet voice is
no more to be heard among us. She has left
vacuum hard to supply, and number OF
friends to weep over her silent tomb.

The GREEN LAKES OF UNoNDAGA.-The
number for this month of Pulnam's Monthly
contains short interesting article on the
above subject. Near GAINESVILLE, in New York
State on n plateau, there sinks abruptly a
huge circular basin of about seventy acres
area, surrounded on three sides by u precpice
one hundred and fifty feet high. The waters
down in this huge natural bowl are of clear
green color. 1t is said to be so deep that
although many efforts have been made to
plumb it with very long lines, all have failed
to reach the bottom. No wild fowl are ever
seen sporting on its waters, and no hreezes
ever rouse it into waving pillows. Near to
Fayetteville-three miles distant from this
is another lake of similar character; it is
about three hundred yards in diameter, circu-
lar in form, with high precipitous banks,
sweeping round and round one hundred and
fifty feet above the dark green waters. Near
its margin, MS far MS the eye can reach, it is
filled with sunken trees, on which are depos.
tied white marty coating. 1t is lao feet
deep, ard the waters ut its bottom are I'M
pregnated with sulphur. Fish sport in It, but
noieathercd creatures ever dip their wings in
its silent waters. The people in its neigh
borhood call it "l.ake S0dom."

Too GENEROUS BY HALF.-Thc ease Of

arms were broken. He received other inju.

ages. The company offered five thousand,
and with that excessive generosity for which
it is SO eminently celebrated, n free ticket to
ride over their road during life. 1t is unne.
cessary to say that Mr.. Taylor declined the
generous offer. He never desires to 90 on
that route again, and free ticket 'ior life"
would make him shudder every time he saw
it. A free ticket for death would be more
correct,

IyFLUENC. on ASrI-KNow NOTHING WmGs.-
The Montgomery Mail says, quite number
of the American party-especinlly of those
who, aforetime, were members Of the Wing
party-are disposed, at times, to be little bit
ter towards those Wings, who, taking service
under the ant-American party, have at once

Not so, vel Whenever we '"ea~ of the

is true, must he Democrats, in name; they
must worship and minister at the altar of De-
mocracy, in the robes that are familiar to the
eyes of the throng who stand in the vestibue
but silently, surely, steadily their influence
will be felt in moulding the principles of the
party, and in the substitution, by a gradual
process, of new men for its old leaders,
Gradually, ime.honored imbecility will dis
appear; q new and more vigorous race will
take the places of honor; and the country
will be benefited, in proportion as one of its
great parties improves in its principles and its
men.

"They are exhibiting n bear woman
up in town." said Mrs. Sled. and she dropped
like kedge anchor into Mrs. Par.ngtons
big arm chair. Mrs. Darlington looked pain
fully at Ike, who was pegging atop by the
door, to the danger of sundry jars of preserv-
ed pums. "a bare woman indeed" said she.
81 wonder what they will exhibit next!-
Though the baroness isn't the shnme-'tls
the Knowing of it. There was Eve, now,
wasn't thought any worse of, and moved in
the first society, till she fouLd she was na-
ked.' "My dear Mrs. p" said Mrs. Sled, in
terrupting her, "this is woman that is thought
to be, in some respects like the animal called
a bear" "Oh, ah," said the old lady, swell
don't know which would be the improperest
to make a public thing of, for corrupted
taste is as bad MS visecrated mortal" This
was profound remark, and the old lady
stood holding her box long after she had ut
tered it, looking abstraclcdly at a picture of
Susannah and the elder over the mantle
piece.
