Wopaaa's Rights.--A Louisville paper says:
"a young lady appeared in our Streets the
sole occupant of a conspicuous seat upon a
load Of wood, having driven the team a dis
lance of several miles into the city without
any assistance. She sold her wood very
readily, and, purchasing some family necessa-
ries, she threw them and herself into the
young man, and pursued her way home
to the rapid measure of "Pop Goes the
Weazle," which she whistled with masculine
taste and spirit. The young lady appears to
be about eighteen years of age, and does not
adopt the novel calling from necessity (for her
father has taxables to the amount of $l0.0O0D
but merely as q right.

q Ganne of Drnw.,s

The court is in session, the judges are on
the bench and the case Of Smith vs.. Brown is
called up.
"All ready" shouts the counsel for de-.
PENDANT; but the counsel for defendant does
not respond.
."Who's for the plaintiff" inquired the judge,
somewhat impatiently.
"May it please the Court said a rising
member of the fraternity, 'sPikins is for the
plaintiff, but | left him just now over in. the
tavern, playing a game Of poker. He's got a
sucker there, and he's sure to skin him if he
only has time. He's got the thing all set to
ring in q cold Deck in which case he will
deal for himself four aces and his opponent
four queens, 90 that your Honor will perceive
he must rake the persimmons."
The LOOK Of impotence vanished from the
face Of hia Honor at once, and an expression
more Of sorrow than of anger took its place.
At length he said with a sigh:
"Dear me, that's too bad! II happens al q
very unfortunate time, as | am very anxious
to get on with these cases"
A brown study followed, and at length q
happy idea struck the Judge.
Bill" said he, addressing the friend Of the
absent Pikins, who had spoken, "you UNDER
stand poker about as well as Pikins, suppose
you go over and play his hand"

The Spectre Ftre-ship.

Many, many years ago. a ship named the
Palestine sailed from Holland, with q large
number OF passengers, bound to q new home
in North America. Soon after leaving port it
became generally known that many of the
passengers were wealthy, and had q large
amount of gold and silver in their possession.
Three weeks elapsed, when the captain and
his crew conceived the idea of enriching them
selves by plundering and numbering the inof-
fensiye and u%nsuspicious persons in their
power. They first reported their provisions
spoiled, but managed to sell hard biscuits for
a guinea each. This process was at length
suspended, and then disease and famine had
full sway. The winds were favorable, all
were not yet dead, and 10! the ship was floats
ing off Block Island. The few passengers
who still survived might still live to tell their
tale Of woe, and SO the ship must be destroyed,
with all her living freight. The captain and
crew piled their ill-gotten wealth in their two
yawls, and having scuttled and set fire to the
ship, they embarked for the neighboring
island, and landed just as the great mass of
flame sank kissing into the deep. The pirates
told the islanders a plausible story, and for
many months they lived in a house which is
still pointed Out 10 the curious stranger, but
it is a mere ruin. The pirates quarreled,
separated, and left for parts unknown. For
many years thereafter the house was deserted
by all persons of flesh and blood, but thickly
peopled with g~hosts--with pale wonen in
white, old men reduced to skeletons, and
children with bloody faces, and whenever they
made their appearance at the witching time Of
night, there were heard the most frightful cries
of anguish: In process of time, however, the
SpeetPes all disappeared: but of late wears.
whenever a great storm is about to lash the
ocean into fury, the fre"ship is distinctly seen
in the oting her hull a mass of cinders, and
her sails sheets Of pure fame. Many old men
have looked upon this phantom many times,
and SEINE of them allege that they have seen
the sufferers imploriDg Heaven for succor, and
heard their shrieks of despair.-Lannsan's Ad.
ventures an the Wilds Of the United States.

MY LITTLE KATE.

Like the ~dew-drops to the flowers,
Breathing incense to the morn;
Like the memory Of hours
That ia happiness were born;
Like the evening star, which beameth
Where no other planet CLOVIS;
Like the things a fairy dreameth
AS she sleeps beneath the rose
Like the artists fairest vision,
Which he striyeth not to paint,
(Sinee the brush, unless EIysian,
Would its beauties only taint,)
Like the angels who are bending
O'er their harps of purest gold,
While their voices all are blending
In the "song that grows not old''-
Like the young fawn of the mountains,
With its heart so free and gay,
Drinking nectar from the fountains
Where the sportive waters play;
Like the sunny sky above me,
Like the sOng-bird on the tree
Yes, like every thing that's lovely,
Is my dearest KATE to me!
