WASHINGTON, Dec. lit is now pro-
bable that not only the Presidents Mess
age, but the reports of the heads of the
departments will be supplied to the press
in the principal Atlantic cities and news
papers elsewhere when the reading of the
message shall have been commenced in
Congress. The same well be telegraph
ed at the proper time with the view.
The propriety Of such an arrangement
is apparent from the fact that it will avoid
Geographic blunders and secure correct
publication in the newspapers distant
from the capital at the earliest possible
time.-Although the utmost care has been
taken to prevent redundant language, the
message is unavoidably long, owing to
the prominent subjects of Kansas, Utah,
Central America, and the currency.

GOING TO BED.

Going to bed we have always consid-
cred one of the most sober, serious
and solemn operations which man
can be engaged in during the whole
twenty-four hours. With a yonug
lady it is altogether different thing.
When bed time arrives, she trips up
stairs with candle in her hand, and
if she had pleasant company during
the eveuing-wi;h some agreeable
ideas in her head. The candle on
the toilette, and her luxuyiant hair is
speedily emancipated from the thraul-
dom Of combs and pins. If she US
ually wears curls, or uses the ''Iron,
her hair is brushed carefully from her
forehead and the whole mass compact
ly secured; if not why then her lovely
tresses are soon hid in innumerable
bits Of paper. This task accomplish
ed nightcap appears, perhaps edged
with plain muslin, or perhaps with
heavy lace, which hides all, save her
own sweet countenance, As soon as
| she ties the string, probably she takes
peep in the glass, and half bushes
at what SIZE sees. The light is out,
her far delicate form gently presses
the couch, and like IA dear, innocent
lovely creature, as she is, she falls
gently into sleep, with sweet smile
on her still sWeeter face. A man, Of
course, under the same circumstances
acts quite differently. Every move
ment in his chamber indicates the
coarse, rough mould of his sulIel na.
ture. When al is ready, be snulfs
out the candle with his fingers: like 4
caunibal, and then jumps into the bed
like q savage. FIR few moments
he thinks of all the paecadillos he
may have committed during the day,

My Early Love.
If was an ardent borish love.

If was an ardent boyish love,
That faded out, as life grew older,
Ny heart fed to her like dove,
And lighted on her beauteous shoulder:
Or slipped the honey from her lips,
Or in her eyes found heavenly graces--
loved her to her fingers tips
1loved her very Footprint traces.
Her features were a rapturous charm.
Her smile made all within me flutter:
La rounded beauty was her arm.
Her little hand was fat as butter.
No wonder that loved herso,
But she was false as she was pretty,
And soon she sacked her little beau,
And took big one from the city.
