He comes not--I have watched the moon go down,
But yet he comes not. Once it was not so.
He thinks not how these bitter tears do flow,
The while he holds his riot in that town.
Yet he will come and chide, and shall weep;
And he will wake my infant from its sleep, 'a
To blend its feeble wailing with my tears.
Oh how love mothers watch to keep
Over those sleeping eyes, that smile, which cheers
Ny heart though sunk in sorrow, fixed and deep.
had husband once, who loved ms-now
He ever wears frown upon his brow,
And feeds his passion on wantons lip.
AS bees from laurel flowers poison sip.
But yet cannot hate. Oh there were hours
When could hang forever on his eye,
And Time, who stole with silent swiftness by,
Strewed, as be hurried on, bis path with flowers
loved him then--he loved me too. My heart
Still finds its fon lness kindle if he smile; -a
The memory of our loves will ne'er depart;
And though he often sting me with dart,
Vanomed and barbed, and waste upon the vile
Caresses which his babe and mine should share
Though he should spurn mel viii calmly bear
His madness ard should sickness come and lay
Its paralyzng band upon him, then
would with kindness all my wrongs repay,
Until the penitent should weep and say
How injured and how faithful had been.

SPAIN.

OPENING OF THE CoRTEs SPEECH OF
THE QUEEN-HER RELATIONS WITH MEX.
Ico.-The Queen of Spain opened the Cortes
on the 1st December. Her Majesty spoke
as follows:
Senors Senators and DeDaties-I have
come with feelings of lively satisfaction to
naugurate your abors. Surrounded by the
representatives of the nation, who at all
times have given me the most marked proofs
of their affection and loyalty, am strength
eued in the hope that under the shadow of
the throne, Spain will enjoy TRANQUILITY the
advantages of constitutional government,
aud will attain the power which once was
hers, through the courage and science of her
children, her religious pietY, and the wise
rule of her monarcbs. a
l have the satisfaction to announce to you
that our relations with friendly Powers are
ut this moment cordial and sincere.
have adopted all the means compatible
with the national dignity to prevent peace
being disturbed between two countries bound
by fraternal ties; but, if contrary to my
wishes and hopes, an immediate result is not
obtained by pacific negotiations, | will em-
ploy the resources already prepared in sup
port Of my demands with vigor and energy
equal to the moderation and temperance
shown in the long period Of the differences
existing with the Government Of Mexico
Some ships of the squadron assembled at
the Havana, are stationed in the river of
Tampico, and also in the waters of the
Island Of Sacrifcios with the object Of pro-
tecting the interests and lives Of my subjects.
The Emperor Of Morocco, recognizing, as
be has not done up to the present, princi.
Pile embodied in the treaties concluded with
Spain, in virtue of which he has agreed to
pay an indemnity for the ship captured BY
the Moors Of the Riff, more than two years
ago, | hope that he will continue to satisfy,
in like manner, my demands, that may no
longer be obliged TO have recourse to force
to insure respect to the Spanish flag, and that
there will be no repetition Of the excuses
committed against our fortresses and our
merchant ships by the MoOrs of the Riff, at
various periods.
The outrages of which our missionaries
were the victims in Asia, have obliged me
to send, in conjunction with the Emperor Of
the French, a military expedition to Cochin
China. The land and sea force will not,
should the occasion occur, be below the ira
ditions aud memory of the exploits which
always distinguish the Spanish soldier when
defending the interests and honor Of bis
country and bis sovereign. s

An IRREvERENT HABT.-The following
paragraph from the Presbyterian rebukes y
practice which, We are sorry to say, is much
too common in our own Congregations;
There is q practice prevailing in our
churches which should be at once corrected
| alude to the preparations which many
persons make to get out of church at the
earliest possible moment, by putting on
shawls, coats and cloaks, 81 as to lose not a
moment in getting out Many Of the mtles
rise to receive the benedction, with their hats
in their hands, ready for a start at the eari'
est possible moment. The beuediction should
be re- eiyed with composure and reverence
and at reasonable time after its close, the
members of the congregation may put Oh
their extra garments and look for their hats
and leave the church at moderate pace
It will possibly require taOo MINUTES to com
ply with MY suggestions,

MALE TEACHERS FOR GIRLS.

Fanny Fern doesn't think much of school,
masters as governors of girls-thinks the
damsels are "too many" for 'em:

impossible task Of making girls 'sbehave.!
| should pity them more, did l not know
that they keep them in school about four OF
five hours longer than they ought. Did ]
not know what they know, but still persist
practically in ignoring, that the fun has got
to come out somehow, or turn to poison ia
the blood, and that if teachers won't give il
shizzing time oat Of school, they must needs
have it fly in their faces IN school. There
must be discipline, that's certain but, iu

NATIONAL CONVENTION OF GAMBLERs.-
The strangest thing IN the way of convoca.
tons is National Convention Of Gamblers
which the Chicago Democrat assures us is in
session in that city. Although they are
" hard cases." they are said TO be fine look
ing fellows, sleek, fat and jeweled.
There will be two important matters to
come up before the Convention. One will
be tie revision of the old rules aud the
adoption Of new ones for the various games
The rules are construed differently in differ
ent States. Several lives have been lost il
broils arising from this difference in thei
interpretation. Uniformity Of construction
is demanded by the delegates. The othe
will be the non-interference Of professional
gamblers in politics. There will be YER,
war m debate upon this subject.

An intelligent writer upon the subject
says that the colored people of Jamaica are
not satisfied with the bare equality of civil
and religious rights, but aspire to their
exclusive enjoyment. Not content with ac,
quiring lands by free sale aud purchase, and
BY squetting on lands which twenty year,
ago we're valuable plantations, though now
abandoned to the first conner, they wish to
force the proprietors of estates still under
cultivation to dispose of the remains Of their
property exclusively in favor Of the colored
''sons of the soil, menacing the colony. in
the event Of continued recusancy, with the
fate of Haiti.

THE BEREAvRD HUSBAND.

lie sat within silent room
Deaths shadow had been there,
dis heart was filed with grief and gloom.
His head was bowed in prayer;
He strove to shut out memory,
So filed with bitter pain,
But close before his weeping eyes
Her glass was held again.
Again he stood beside his wife
And almost deemed her living
Again be took the farewell kiss
Which she had died in giving.
He half forgot that death had been
Within his pleasant home;
He seemed to feel her presence there
Beside him in her room.
There stood upon the mantel shelf
A vase Of faded flowers,
They had been placed there by herself
In happy, glowing hours;
There sat her vacant, crimson chair,
.t Her shawl across it lying,
1t had been folded round her breast
When lie had seen her dying.
b There was her basket and her books,
38 Her portrait on the wall,
The Bible where her last sweet looks
t On holy words did fall,
A few short years before and he
Had brought her there bride,
But now she was laid down to rest
With her infant by her side.
He did not dream how much he loved
The flower that he had cherished,
Or how she twined about his heart,
Until the bloom had perished.
