OLD AIR, FROM cARoLAN.

la.'a.Isa OLD AIR, FROM cARoLAN.
The mornings FIRST 6a1 IN vas all glowing, .
And purp ana gold tinged the sky;
The SuMme.'s soft bre yes were blowing
& Aud waving the tree tops on hiah;
With music the srDyes were all rinoing.
The grass wa all spa gled with dew. q
By the side of the path sweetly singing,
Sat pretty girl milking the COW.
Like ihe morning her fair cheek was glowing,
With the roses most del. ca,e hue,
Her hair Ike the gol en- clouds flowing, tf
Her eyes like the drops of brig dew, -
Her lock- b. the morning breeze parted,
forehead disclosed white sn W t.--
AMI none were nor gay and H@bt hearted
han the pretty girl milking lie COW
The lark, his glad hymr to the morning,
Was singing aloft In The SKY;
And rob II. the carol returning, Er
Sat perch'd on the tee top hard by;
And spafrJws we're fitting so lightly
And chirpiug heir notes sweet and low,
But none oi Them sung mo e sweetly
Than the pretty girl milking The COW.
What cared she for wea tb or sple ndor?
The proud, the ri h. al The gaNI
And father and mot e. most tender
Were dearer, far dearer than they.
Content with their lev she despis'd not
Her stafion. Ih0ugh huInble and low,
But like the bright IN ornng all joyous -++
Was The pretty gil milking her COW.

PREPARATIONS FOR A GRAND CELs.
sRArIor.-From preparations now be
ing made, the celebration Of the 22nd
inst, will be on scale Of grandeur
and magnificence, to remind one Of
the ancient customs Of an early day,
Although Red Stick. has no martial
company Of Chas,eur., and no Wash
ineton, or other Guards still she makes
up the loss, 10 a formidable host of
moral reform societies, which after all
are perhaps best but We favor slight
sprinkling Of both, and lament that
the martial spirit Of former period
has entirely vanished. Among the
moral reformers may be enumerated
now extapt within the bounds of the
corporate limits" The Knights Of
Jerico" with q more formidable and
dangerous branch Of daughters. The
Knights Of Malta, the Sons Of Tempe
rance, the Lone Star, the German Be
nevolert society the Odd Fellows, the
Ousel Owles, the Masops, the Bar
Keepers Benevolent and others too
numerous to mention. The Fire Com
panies Washington" and 1ndepen-
dence" are making preparations for
. full turn out on the birth day, and
We hear it said that extensive prepa
rations are being made to Inagurate
The statue. Some Of the spirits ought
70 provide for Ball, at night, or some
thing Of that kind, without which tho
ladies who have yet left them some
rights. do not receive their share Of the
celebration.

CoMrArr.-An application was made

part Of Mr.. Barnum. to direct The words

on the docket Of = judgment obtained
by Orson y. Mum. aud other. aga;us.
the defendant for the sum Of e16,O74.
The effect Of this would be 10 remove
lien on his real estate. and enable
him to sell IT, The decision was reser-
we'd. We understand that Mr.. Bar
mum, is on the paper Of the jerome
Clock Company to the amount of
nearly 100000, but the payment Of
which II is supposed he could sue
cessfully resist on the ground Of fraud.
We learn. however, that a compromise
is contemplated with the holders Of
his endorsements, which probably will
be effected. The liabilities Of the
Company amount. it is said 10 nearly
$500, 900, while the assets will proba-
bly, not reach above $400 ,0oO.-New

The editor before commencing the
enterprise, asked publically the opin
ion of the editor of very considerable
magazine (literary) published here
yearrSgo. entitled "The Magnolia. y
The opinions were given, and freely
commented upon in the Mirror; with
remarks conclusive to this effect !:
1.-The Mirror, is TO be a permanent
institution and not to go the way Of
the Magnolia" Perhaps our neigh
bors in Church Street can tell US
something about the Mirror,
We feel very much As though we
we're indebted to somebody, having
received the first number Of the book
without paying--according to the
terms Five Dollars in advance"
Since the above was written we find
the following in the Concordia lntelli-
gencer:
Mr.. James Francis Harris, the edi-
tor and publisher Of Harris Mirror Of

. detention by ice on his way in the

frowns on any agitation, having for its
object "the weakening the brotherhood

like it was gotten up expressly for the

in this section Of the Union who wants
to be told that the Northern people

One thing in reference TO this mat

consanguinity, by song, by poetry, Ly
history, by science and by art. Be
