Beoare Of Oftce.-sOme one, who has EVIL
IDENTIFY seen not a little of the ways of the
world, gives the following wholesome advice
IN relation to accepting public Office. We
commendi its ~considetate perusal, says the Bat
on Rouge Advocate, to that large class of hun
cry expectants in every community that seems
to do snimmense business on very small intelv
lectual capacity:
When a wild animal once tastes human
flesh, nothing can ever after, says Button, dis
shade him from human slaughter. When a
politician once obtains a public Office, no per-
suasion can ever induce him to 60 10 work-at
anything but a nomination for another and an
other, during the term of his natural existence.
If you want to spoil a good citizen for ten
wears secure him a berth in the Custom House.
He never will be socially 8 well man after
wards. Send bin to Congress. and you ruin
him for life. He may carry around pIacards
and tickets at the polls, accept a subordinate
situation ii the police, or run errands for the
door-keeper Of political Westinghouse, but
he will never have independence enough to
emancipate himself from this morbid appetite
for the spells and go to work like 40 honest
man and a Christian.

The Girl with She calico press.

A fig for your upper-ten girls,
With their velvets and satins and laces,
Their diamonds and rubies and peaTls,
And their miliner figures and faces;
They may shine at a party or ball,
Emblazoned with half they possess,
But give me in place of them all,
My girl with the calico dress.
She is plump as a partridge, and fair
AS the rose in its earliest bloom;
Her teeth will with ivory compare,
And her breath with the clover perfume.
Her step is as free and as light Tpress
AS the fawn's whom the hunters hare
And her eye is as soft and as bright,
Ny girl with the calico dress.
Your dandies and foplings may sheer,
At her simple and modest attire,
But the charms she permits to appear,
Would set a whole iceberg On frei
She can dance-but she never allows
The hugging, the squeeze and caress,
She is saving all these for her spouse,
My girl with the calico dress.
She is cheerful, warm.hearted and true,
And kind TO her father and mother;
She studies how much she can do
For her sweet little sister and brother.
IL You want a companion for life,
To comfort, enliven and bless,
She is just the right sort for a wife,
My girl with a calico dress.
