NOBODY'S SONG.

From the New York Evening.
NoBODY'S SONG.
Swift never wrote anything better in verae
than the following lines, from an unknown
correspondent:
I'm thinking Just now OF Nobody,
Aud all that Nobody's done,
For I've passion for Nobody,
That Nobody else would own;
] bear the name Of Nobody,
For from Nobody sprung;
And sing the praise OF Nobody,
As Nobody mine has sung.
IL.
In life's young morning Nobody
TO me was tender and dear
And my cradle was rocked by Nobody,
And Nobody was ever near;
was petted and praised by Nobody,
And Nobody brought me up;
A nd when was hungry, Nobody
Gave me dine or to sup.
went to school to Nobody,
And Nobody taught me TO read;
played in the street with Nobody,
And TO Nobody ever gave heed
] recounted my tale TO Nobody,
For Nobody was willing to hear;
And my heart is clung to Nobody,
And Nobody shed u tear
".
And when grew older Nobody
Gave me helping turn;
And by the good aid of Nobody
begin my living to earn;
And hence | Gu ted Nobody,
And said nobody's I'd be,
Aud asked to marry Nobody,
And Nobody married me.
v.
Thus tru5ge along with Nobody,
And Nobody cheers my life.
And have love for Nobody
Which Nobody has for his wife.
So here's a health to Nobody,
For "Nobody's now in town."
And I've passion for Nobody,
That Nobody else would own.
NOBODY.

DEATH OF A VETERAN DEMocRAT.
The Maysville California; papers chron-
icle the recent death, in Quartzburg, in
that county, of Col. Gaines, aged eighty
years. The Colonel was known as an
ardent democrat, and was valuable cit
izen. He was carried on litter to the
polls few days before his death, and de-
posted his ballot in favor of Buchanan
and the Union. His desire was that he
might live to hear the news of the tri-
ulnph of the democratic national candi-
dates. Col. Gaines was native Of Vir-
ginia, from whence he emigratcd to
Texas at an early day, and went to Cali
fornia in 1850.

TERRIBLE AccIDENT-W Washington,
Jan. A most shocking accident oc-
Cured here last night, by which the wife
of Judge Daniels, of the United States
Supreme Court, was burnt to death. The
Judge and his wife had just returned
from party to his residence in Franklin
row, and had gone to his library whilst
Mrs. Daniels repaired to her sleeping
room and commenced disrobing prepara-
tory to retiring for the night Being
very near sighted, she did not perceive
a candle sitting on the hearth or the
flames which communicated to her clothes
until they completely cnvolopcd her
She then ran to her room, shrieking for
assistance, but her motion only added
strength to the flames, aud it is supposed
she also inhaled the fire. Before effec-
tual assistance could be rendered the I'M
fortunate lady was burnt almost to a
crisp, and died after eight hours intense
suffering. She was an estimable lady,
about 80 years of age. Her terrible
death has caused much regret among her
large circle of friends and the communi-
ty at large. Much sympathy is felt on
all hands for the Judge, in this his sad
! bereavement.
One statement says that Mrs Daniels
was in her night dress which caught
fire Another is that she was in bed
reading when the candle caught to her
sleeve.
Mrs. Daniels was the daughter of the
late DIR. Harris, of Philadelphia, for
merly Chief Of the Bureau of Medicine
and Surgery of the Navy She leaves
two children, the youngest about eight
months old. Judge Daniels was slightly
burnt in his efforts to extinguish the
flames.
