FAREWELL WORDS.


IT'S vain TO hide too well know,
truth which words did not reveal;
But neglect and coldness often show,
Truths which deceiful lips conceal.
How have borne thy bitter wrongs, alone
This injured heart can tell,
How I've deserved them, let thine own
Fdlse-hedrted bosom answer well.
When first saw thy manly form,
(For manly it doth seem)
Ny merry heart was light and warm,
Ae morn's first golden beam.
Since then the years are few and brief,
But 0, the change to me,
knew but little then of grief,
And naught of misery.
My gladsome spirit woke as free,
AS wakes the morning MINISTRIES now,
Nor thought--how could it think to be
The victim of thy faithless vow
thought of the good, thou was purest and best
Thy vow truthful vow,
Nor dream't the serpent of deceit could rest
Beneath so fair brow.
But thou hast proved untrue to me,
Least faithful of thy name,
Hast filed my soul with love for thee,
Then coldly spurned the burning flame.
But the letters of love are broke,
And my heart again is free,
Free as it was ere it awoke,
To thy light words of iattery.
Thou hast slighted friendship which would
make
The greatest sacrifice for thee,
A confidence which naught could shake,
Faith unbendng, strong and free.
Friendship and confidence alike were vain,
My faith in thee has fled,
And never will return again,
Till am with the dead.
Go false one I'll e'er again court thy smile,
Nor bend, nor deign me to implore,
No one whose heart can be so ve
wish on earth to meet no more.
Go but ever will remember thee,
And Just Heaven will not forget
The wrongs which thou hast done to me,
Nor the tears with which my checks were
wet
Go thy decree or that of fate
Canst not another pang imp art,
I'm not too gentle now to hate,
Thou shall not freak this throbbing heart,

CAUGHT ON THE JURY.

The following, which we have heard told
as fact some time ago, may be beneficial
to some gentleman who has young un-
suspecting wife:
A certain man, who lived about ten
miles from K, was in the habit of go
ing to town about once a week and getting
on regular spree, and would not return
until he had time to "cool off, which was
generally two or three days. His wife
was ignorant of the cause of his staying
out so long, and suffered greatly from
anxiety about his welfare When he
would return, of course his confding wife
would inquire what had been the matter
with him, and the invariable reply was,
"that he was caught on the jury and
couldn't get off.
Having gathered his corn and placed it
in large heap, he, according to custom,
determined to call in his neighbors and
have a real corn shucking frolc. SO he
gave Ned, a faithful servant, jug and an
order to 90 town and get gallon of whis-
key-a very necessary article on such oc-
casions. Ned mounted mule and was
soon in town, and equipped with the whis-
| KEY, remOunted to set out for home, all
buoyant with the prospect of fun at the
"shucking."
When he had proceeded few hundred
yards from town he concluded to try the
"Suf," and, not satisfied with once, he
kept trying until the world turned around
so fast that he turned off the mule, and
there he went to sleep and the mule to
grazing. 1t was now nearly night, and
when Ned awoke it was just before the
break of day, and so dark that he was un-
able to make any start towards home un-
til light AS soon as his bewlderment
had subsided so that he could get to the
"point," he started with an empty jug, the
whiskey having run out, and afoot, for the
mule had gone home. OF course he was
contemplating the application of "two
year old hickory. as he went on at the
rate of two forty
Ned reached home about breakfast time
and "fetchcd up" at the back door with a
decidedly guilty countenance
"What in thunder have you been at, you
black rascal, said his master.
Ned, knowing his masters excuse to his
wife when he got on a spree, determined
to tell the truth if he died for it, and said
"Well, master, to tell the truth, I ,cas

YELLOW FEVER ITEMs.-The fever this
year is characterized by a new develop
ment-that of attacking creoles and old
acclimated people whose birth and CON
tinued residence in New Orleans has al
ways exempted them from its attacks. In
this respect, the fever is far worse than il
was in 1853. A number of creole citizens
having died, there is much alarm existing
in that part of the population, many Of
whom hold to the opinion that the fever
is not the ordinary yellow fever
The fever this year is conspicuous for
its fatality among young men and children.
Within the last fortnight there have been
more deaths of young men, aged from Is
to 25, than we can recollect in any prey-
Gus visitation of the fever.
The different benevolent and charitable
societies continue nobly at work The
Howards, who are doing the most, are
operating with a balance of s37 900, left
over from the last epidemic, and are con-
sequcntly not necessitated to appeal to the
public at present for assistance.-N. o.

Morphy, the American chess player, is
being put to his trumps by the foreign
players in England He is ahead yet, but
the English will not concede his superiori-
ty till he has fairly won it. The London
Sunday Times says:
"That he is one of the best chess players
is an unquestionable fact whether he is
the best still remains undecided We look
to his pending match with Mr.. Lowenthal
to settle the matter, and still more do we
look to the future engagement with a more
powerful combatant. The match with Mr..
Stanton will, unless we are mistaken, be
Mr.. Morphy's great undertaking, and
place the distinguished American in his
right position, Mr.. Morphys brilliancy,
learning, and capability of improvement
will then meet with worthy opposition
in depth, experience, and indomitable
energy.

PRIDE


A just pride is one of the most beauti-
full manifestations of human character-a
disposition to be cultivated and encouraged
at every age and in every condition
Pride in the maintenance of spotless
character and pure life-pride in the per-
formance of noble and generous actions
pride in all things that tend to elevate the
mind and heart, and that, however the
vulgar and vicious may regard US, ensure
to us more and more Of the esteem of the
virtuous. Fortified by such pride, we can
in the midst of poverty and trial maintain
the dignity of manhood, and rise by self
respect superior to every misfortune. For
after all the homage paid to external pomp
and possession, it is the man-the true
man-that counts in the great battle Of
life, and on the pages of history. What
has not such man accomplished, in spite
of o-called advantages and fortune--in
spite of obscure birth, ignoble caste, and
perhaps still worse inherited embarrass.
ments?
Look over the record of those who have
made our humanity illustrious, and see
how few were born and nutured in the lap
of worldly, sensual pride. The pioneers,
the leaders, the Savior of our race have
been chiefly of the humblest origin so far
as temporal surroundings were concerned
To the brave soul, proud of it's manhood
and of continuance in lofty aspiring, all
conquest is possible and easy, and in the
march of higher goals, without effort the
baser spoils of fortune and renown.
There is pride as mean, contemplate
and debasing, as its counterpart is eleva-
ting and noble. 1t is pride of birth,
without personal merit to back it-pride
of wealth, acquired or inherited, without
virtue or generosity in its use pride Of
dress and equipage, which knaves and
fools, and even felons may compass. In
deed, the lower the quality of pride, the
more offensive and ostentatious it's exhi-
bitions. Those are often the proudest, in
the common acceptance of the term, who
have the least to be proud Of Vain, shall
low minds, characterless characters, spread
ing their gaudy plumes to the gaze of
writings, and winning after all only sneefs
and contempt. How true the lines of the
peasant poet" Burns:
"The rank is but the guinea's stamp,
The mans the gold for all that"
False pride can never secure the esteem,
nor the respect of those who surround us
We may delude ourselves with the idea
that we are making grand impression on
society by its displays, but in the end we
shall find that we are only laughed at, and
set down as shallow masquers and con-
ceited fools.

LINES FOR NANNIE'S ALBUM.

BY EDNA CORA.
l would, Mamie, that could call
One bright blessing on thee now;
Like the dew from heaven, should fall
Its pure light upon thy brow.
'Twould ever cheer thee on thy way
That gift from heaven, divine,
And be to thee guiding ray,
Ever on thy path to shine
Yet let me give gem to thee,
A wreath--'twil never die
Till years have flown, that yet must be,
Nor then without a sigh.
Should time corrode the links Of love
That f lis our friendships chain
In search of other friends you rove,
Memory will each joy retain.
When from friends In sorrow parted,
When dark grief shall come to thee,
When are gone the loving-hearted
Then shall my gift immortal be.
When'ere thy heart is glad and gay,
Gliding like gentle stream;
Or dancing lightly on its way,
Filled with friendships brightest beam.
Oh then my simple gift will be,
One amid the many there;
Like wavelets on tn dark blue sea-
Or cloudlets in the air.
And yet twill ever be the same;
But should others fade away
You'd call it by another name,
And magnify its ray.
The wreath weave from flowers of love,
By friendships hand entwin'd,
VIII be immortal, and above,
viii bloom for age divine.
Oh when you scan this Album o'e-,
And read its pages fair,
Then turn to memory once more,
And trace my image there.
