TO MISS H-----.-.
IT'S thou alone who can beguile

TO MISS H-----.-,
IT'S thou alone who can beguile
My loneliness of heart;
Yet scarcely did the rainbow smile,
Ere clouds bid it depart.
We met upon summer eve
Within lighted hall;
Where Music mystic chains did weave
Around the hearts Of ALL
And yet did not hear the strain,
Nor feel its magic power,
The thought we should not meet again,
So gloomed that garish hour.
We parted on summer morn
Upon a crowded car;
My soul was saddened, dark and lorn,
AS thou vert borne afar.
And as the Hall where music rose,
And Beauty flowed along,
No more in festal splendor glows
Nor echoes back the song;
- So were my heart, of thee bereft,
An emblem of that Hall,
Had not thy angel beauty left
Its everlasting thrall.
And near me fondly cherished lies
The farewell gift of thine;
Tho withered now to others eyes,
'Tis beautiful to mine.
When friends shall ask in after years,
"Whose gift 80 priced by thee?"
Must then tell, with binding tears,
A dear one's-lost to me p
But hush the melancholy strain
Tho dark the prospect now,
Yet will hope to gaze again
Upon thy peerless brow;
To listen to thy silver tone,
To see thy flashing eye,
To hear thy lips Of ruby own
None love like you and I.
Adieu! My Beautiful, adieu!
Thy childhood's friends are round thee,
Yet oft will midnight dreams renew
The spell of love around me. 80

specially selected on account of good char
acter an. industrious habits, in the expecta-
ton that the person so assisted will not only
better their own condition, but will accord

emigrants, also send for, or otherwise great

The Ministry of the Interior in Rus
sia has recently published a statistical table
which is interesting on more than one ac-
count. The wear and tear of the imperial
armies in the late war may be imagined by
the number of men withdrawn from agricul-
ture in the year 1855, which attained the
enormous figure of 73s,955. Of these $685.
902 were drafted into the skeleton regiments
or embodied in the military, while 372,053
were created into reserve. In the same
year the Voluntarily gifts presented to the
State, in support of the expenses of war,
s72O,000 sterling. The Russian Empire
contains, according to the above statistics,
62s towns; it is inhabited by 10000 mobiles,
who possesses 100000 estates, II, 900 citi-
IONS of eminence, 100000 merchants, 49,
900 liberated crown peasants residing on
their own land, 100000 townsmen, $780,
S55 Jewish families. In the above year
1921 foreigners arrived in Russia from Eu-
rope and $40 from Asia. Only 779 Rus
sian subjects left the Empire during that Pc
riod. The estates owned by 10000 mobiles
are divided into 400, possessing above l.
900 peasants; 1000 possessing between 500
and 1000; 1850 between 100 and SOU !;
3O,1OO between 81 and 100, and $1,000
possessing under 81 peasants.
