Herald closes q long article on the Douglas de-
lection, and the failure Of the Peace Commits
sioners from that city, to effect . reconciliation
at Washington, as follows:
"We have said that the opposltion elements
Of the country are drifting to . coalition. The
law of political gravitation is beginning to work
among them, and, from present appearances,
North and South, they will evidently coalssce
upon such broad and general issues as will suf-
fee for 1860. In the meantime, looking to the
other side OF the picture, neither sympathy for
Douglas nor hostility to Douglas, nor . little
| movement here for Gov. Wise, nor another there
for Slidell and Bright nor anything Of the sort,
will avail to unite the distracted, dismantlsd,
disordersd, dsjointed and divided democracy.
They can only unite upon the common basis of
Mr. Buchanan's administration-they can only
be saved upon that platform from that absolute
humiliation which they escaped with his cleo.

IAN hour in Havana, when the yomito reigns

Dor this morning, an officer Of the British
steamer said, And that ship you see BY itself,
it's sails all hanging loose, was this morning
towed from the wharf and moored there by the
authorities-all having died!' The poison was
never more observable than now; no one can
forget ito smell, nor the sinking fog which, as
the sun rises, shoots up and disappears from the
hot hArbor, like steam from locomotive Nth

death gives no warning. More than half the
sailors have died, and il no fresh ones come, il

Orr Adrice.--Girls! beware of young
men of the butter fly order. Remember
good steady farmer boy, or sober
and industrious mechanic is ninety
per cent. more than all the foppish trash
afioat The glitter of a dandy jack,
with a chain about his neck, an honest
tailors coat on his back, and brainless
skull, is not fair equivalent for the loss
of a good old fathers home, a kind old
mothers scare and counsel, and the prof.
table society of brothers and sisters.
Their affection will cling to you beyond
this gate ofthe grave--while that of dan
dy jacks is put out the moment your
patrimony reaches his pocket, as effectu-
ally as wad Of wet tow extingushes

France, once remarked to his Fool that
he thought they had better change pla-
ces. AS Jean did not look well pleased
at the proposal, Charles asked him if he
were not content at the idea of being a
king. "Oh, content enough" was the
reply, "but | should be exceedingly
ashamed at having such fool"

The Maid of Rock Creek.

Twas evening on the banks of the
beautiful Rock Creek. The silver beams
of Luna, which struggled down through
the branches of the trees, revealed a
scene Of transcendent beauty. Upon an
ancient stump, which had braved the
tempests of hundred winters, sitting in
an attitude of graceful repose, was can
angeiferous maiden, just bloomed out in
to sunny womanhood. She was radiantly
and peerlessly beautiful. Webster hides
his inglorious head in the dust, in the
vain attempt to furnish words descriptive
of her loneliness. Graceful as a duck,
wild as hawk, pensive as a setting hen,
with her curls Of tow colored gold stream
ing down over her shoulders, like some
bright swamp-angel she sat, while the
moonbeams rested like halo upon her
elegant head. Sorrow, and the mullen
stalks which grew around her. cast deep
shadows over her unrivaled countenance,
the wind, as it kissed the magnificent
cheek, bore TO her delighted ofactories
the fragrant breath of elder blooms
Her knitting work lay idle in her lap
Her eyes, which shamed the lightning
bugs, were bedimned with diamond tears.
She was listening with an air of sor-
rowful distraction to the passionate plead
ings Of noble youth who knelt at her
feet. Never yielded mother earth to finer
form than that which pressed the dande-
lion bank at Seraphina's feet. His fea-
lures We're such as ebuchadnezzar or
Apollo might have envied. His dark,
piercing eyes were like the waters of his
own Rock Creek for depth and clearness,
and were brilliants in which the truth
and veracity of his god like soul were
reflected. From his brow of vast and
ponderous proportions, the sympathizing
breezes swept back long hyacinthine
locks, whose hue in the shade was of
deep raven blackness, but when the light
fell upon it, it resembled a muddy pool
when the sunbeams strike ii aslant
The future history of this interesting
pair will be found in the glowing columns
