was staring each in the face, the GOODNESS and
fortitude of one of the lady passengers amounted
to herOism. While the passengers, divided into

RAIsENGTHE CENTRAL ANERICA-The New York
Post says it reported that negotiations going
on between the Boston Submarine Armor Compa-
ny and the underwriters of the Central America, to
raise her hull which is supposed to lie in about %
fathOms water. The specie in her alone would fur
nish ample inducements for the experiment, if her
position be accurately fixed and that it can, is
probable, from the fact that Capt HerndOn was re-
ported to have given her position to the vessel
which refused to come to his relief Should the
work be undertaken promptly, there is thought to
be a reasonable chance of success.

The Pistol shooting match.

The great match for 81, 900 side between Capt
Paul, of St. Louis, and John Travis, of New Or
leans, was had in st. Louis on Friday. Travis was
the winner. The following is the summary:
The fourth string placed Capt. Paul in the de-
feated position by 3-I6 inches, on which the
money was awarded to Capt. Travis.
The match was equally shot up to the last, when
Captain Paul shot by accident before FULLY leveling
his pistol, committing the same error that Travis
did in his FIRST shot, thus losing the match
The aggregate shooting was follows:
Paurs 20 shots 81 Gle inches.

CkOite Yittraturt,
TWICE IN LOVE.


In a drawing-room of one of the best
houses IN our commercial metropolis, two
girls, from eighteen to nineteen years of
age, were sitting one morning, engaged on
some piece Of embroidery-that delicate
occupation of delicate hands. One was a
blonde, with long, curling ringlets, and with
eyes of deepest blue-so exquisitely lovely,
and yet so fragile, you would have hardly
dared to,say whether she belonged most
to heaven or earth. The other, on the
'contfafy. ssflk afd reslnsdant hair
witb bgIIliant eyes, andlips Of rosy redness,
had that transparent complexion of olive
so often found under an Italian sky. Life
and health sparkled in her; gayety shone
in her countenance or if she looked sad
for there is no physiognomy always unclou-
ded-her sadness could not entirely obscure
the habitual joyousness of her features
They were embroidering, and as if they
would reveal even in their occupations their
different dispositions, the blonde created
the lily and pale hyacinths, while the other
represented, in lively colors, tulips and ro-
ses.
The door suddenly opened, and young
man appeared on the Threshold, and stop
ped to admire the scene The girls turned
on hearing the noise, and at his unannoun-
ced appearance could not repress a slight
exclamation of surprise An instantaneous
but fugitive blush mounted to the cheek Of
the blonde, while her companion became,
though almost imperceptibly, pale.

gentleman, as he approached the blonde
81 have done wrong in presenting myself

"And l hope" replied Florence, ''you
will always consider yourself as such.-
Besides, you could not forget in moment
if you would, the eighteen years during
which you have been almost constantly with
us. But you have not spoken to Fanny
He gave his hand, with smile, to the
brunette. pardon me, dear Fanny" he
said !; "but thought ought first to apollo
gize to Florence for the fright my sudden
entrance had caused her. I heard hel
exclamation, and ran to her without ad-
dressing you"
Fanny smiled, though with slight shade
of sadness, as she gave her hand to theil
friend, for she thought to herself that she
had started with cry of surprise as wei
as Florence, which he had either not heart
or neglected. She remained moment un
decided, and then, instead of returning t.
her embroidery, went and sat herself dow
at the piano, and was soon lost or scenes
! to be SO, in some difficult fantasia.
