My Darling.
BY SARAH J. Z. wHITTLESEY.

Rosy, romping, dimpled darling,
Merry as the May;
White pearl in Il jewel life-wrcath
Woven far away:
Golden haired and lips of cherry,
Dropping honey words,
Gushing on the silvcry south breeze,
Glad as summer birds.
viii that little head. my darling,
Golden head of thine,
Ever crush its wealth of brown curls,
On this heart Of mine;
Nesting in the dew of childhood's
Fresh and rosy charms,
Spirit whispering with the angels,
In my folding arms
Shall ever part the ringlets,
On thy forehead white,
From thy shaded, sleepy, black eyes,
Shutting, half in light
Like the sunset and the twilight,
ora woodland spot,
Hidden in the rast's gray shadows,
Gone but uaforgot.
lie will take thee to his bosom,
In the years to come,
Tell thee many Simple story
. or that early home
How the thick vines crept and clambcrcd
Round the dim old caves,
Hiding many downy nest. home,
Mid the scented leaves;
How the starry roses scattered
On the low white sill,
Where we'd watch the evening shad lows
Settling on the hill:
And the red moon rising over
Ethcr's rim Of blue,
Making diamonds on the green leaves,
OF the whitc-round dew.
Thou wilt see the teardrop sparkle
In his azure eye,
While he tells thee, in the eve-light,
Tales of years gone by.
Smoothing Sack thy floating tresses,
With II trembling hand;
Dreaming of a glad re union,
In the ..Bctter Land -

Church DIFFICULTY. A suit has been
brought against the Catholic bishop of Ctca-
go, to recover undcra contract for building
church. The bshf denies the validity of
the debt. as it was made in his spiritual ca
pacity. The courts of Illinois will, probably
permit him TO pay in his spiritual capacity,
if the distinction is of consequence to him;

Than ksgiVtng Day.

This day Thursday, Nov. 2oth) has been
selected BY the Governor Of this State as
the anniversary of our national thanksgiving.
It is always desirable and appropriate that
zach State Of this great Confederacy should
unite in selecting the same day for its due
observance Yet, often as this desire has
been expressed, such unanimous observance
has been rather an exception than uniform
custom. Rarely, however, have the Gov.
crnors of the several States shown so great
degree Of unanimity in their appointments
as they have the present year, and which is
the more gratifying to observe at time
when the public mind has been SO agtated
by political dissens ions and sectional jeal-
ousies. The goth instant has been selected
by the following States:
Maine, Vermont, Connecticut. New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, N.
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia. Florida
Mississippi, Missouri, Kentucky, Ohio, Indi-
ana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa.
Minnesota territory, and Nebraska territory.
New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Massa-
chusetts have their Thanksgiving on the27th
In Delaware the day was appointed on the
9Th instant, though we understand the ma
jority Of the people of that State will unite
with the citizens of other States in obscrv.
ing the 20th. ....
We understand the day will be observed
in this place by general cessation Of bust
ness. The religious exercises will take
place in the Congregational Church--Rev
