Military Park, in the centre of the city, recently
resolved to enlarge their edifce by addition in
the rear, which would be wholly built on the pub
for centuries has remained undsturbed, the park
being laid out in 1866. Advantage has been taken
by the church people of the fact that there is no
state chancellor, and consequently no injunction
ty of the Common Council to make the enlargement
but it is claimed that the Council has no power to
grant such privilege, and indeed that the church
has no right on the park at all. Some of our prom

hands, and this evening destroyed with axes fence

OF the city of Baltimore for the McDonogh estate
sent In on yesterday to the First Branch of the
City Council very elaborate report of their ac

to the credit of this city the sum of S503 66I 06
and property still remaining to be sold from which
will be realized over Sl57 900, which will make the
total amount received by this city exceed $500 000

this favorable result
AcCIDENT.-Last night about 81 o'clock a young
man named Octavius Daniels, from Kingston, North
Carolina, fell from of the balconies of Bar
NUNS Hotel to the pavement, severely, it is
thought, injurying himself internally although no
bones were broken. 1t appears that he got over
the balustrade and attempted to reach the iron
about the distance of eight feet. He was carried
into the hotel and every attention paid him.
ATTEMPTED BUEGLARY.--The residence of the fa-
mily of the late Rev. Dr. II. V. d. Johns, near the
corner of Lanvale and Bolton streets was burgla-
rlously entered yesterday morning about o'clock.
The noise made by the robbers in entering aroused
one of the inmates Of the house. and the alarm be-
ing instantly given, they were scared off without
an opportunity of accomplishing their designs.

THE IRISH POTATO.

We find the following clever parody on Wood

(old) spirit of the Times -
How sweet to the taste is the Irish potato,
As memory awakens thought of the plant;
Its dark yerdant vine-top and beautiful blossom,
In pleasing transition my memory haunt.
Ay, thoughts of the root in profusion once grow

On the broad sunny hill-slope adjoining the

For some were but small ones, and terc in The

The thin-skinned potato that grew on the hill.

For often at noon when returned from the field,

The best favored edible nature can Weld
With what eager appetite, sharpened by labor.

Alas there are none of the od-fashioned flavor,
None like the real Simons' that grew on the

The mealy pototo, the Irish potato,
The thin-skinned potato that grew on the hill.
How prime from the ul-heapen dish to receive it,
As poised on the fork it ascends to my mouth ;
Noappeal to the pallet could tempt me to leave it.

THE MOTHERS LAST LESSON.

. Will you please learn me my verse,
mamma, and then kiss me, and bid me good
night?' said little Roger L, as he
opened the door and peeped cautiously in
to the chamber of his sick mother " / am
very sleepy, but no one has heard me say
my prayers
Mrs l. was very ILL., indeed, her at
tendant believed her to be dying. She sat
propped up with pillows, and struggling
for breath-her lips were white, her eye
was growing dull and glazed, and the pur-
pie blood was settling at the ends of her
cold, attenuated fingers. She was q wild
ow, and little Roger was her only, her dar-
ling child. Every night he had been in
the habit of coming into her room and sit
ting upon her lap, or kneeling by her side
while she repeated TO him passages from
Gods Holy Word, or related to him stories
of the wise and good men spoken of in its
pages. She had been in delicate health
for many years, but never too i'll to learn
little Roger his verse and hear his prayers

prayers tonight; will put you in bed y
and as she said this, she came forward and
laid her hand gently upon his arm, as
though she would have led him from the
room. Roger began to sob as if his little
heart would break.
Il cannot go to bed without saying my
yers-indeed, l cannotp
The ear of the dying mother caught the
sound. Although she had been nearly in
sensible to everything transpiring around
her, the sound of her darling's sobs aroused
her from her stupor, and, turning to a
friend, she desired her to bring him to her
couch and lay him on her bosom. Her re-
quest was granted, and the child's rosy
cheek and golden head nestled beside the
pale, cold face of his dying mother. Alas,
poor fellow! how little did he realize then
the irreparable loss which he was soon to
sustain!
Roger, my son, my darling child" said
the dying mother, repeat this verse after
me, and never, neger forget it: When nsy
father and mother .fofSake me, The Lord
shall take NE up" The child repeated it
distinctly, and said his little prayer He
then kissed the cold, almost rigid, lips be-
fore him, and went quietly to his little
couch.

as usual, his mothers room, but he found

ing about the faith so beautifully exhibited
by his dying mother. 1t was not mis-
placed. The Lord has taken her darling
up.
My little reader, if you have God for
your friend, you need never tear; father
and mother may forsake you-the world
may seem to you like dreary waste, full
of pitfalls and thorns-but He can bring
you safely through trials, and give you at
last a golden harp and snowy robe, like
those the purified wear in heaven. He
can even surround your death-bed by an
gel visitants. He is all-powerful-an ever
present help in time of trouble. VIII you
not, then, seek His friendship and keep His
commandments ? Southern PRESBYTERIAN.

WATERING PLACES.
BY NNETTI.

9 And what are Watering Places?' the
uninitiated might enquire Little would they
suppose them to be places dotted about the
country, by seaside, or mountain and lake
side, to which the elite of large cities resort
in summer time for health and recreation,
preceded or followed always by another
class for employment or better pay an
indispensable to the very existence of a
Watering Place.
Why say these uninitiated, Water
ing Places we have always supposed were
places, where the herdsman waters his flock,
and the teamster stops, as he journeys to
water his team Not so, the term under
stood in fashionable sense is now classic
term, and refers to all the numerous places
throughout the country, of resort in sum-
mer by the fashionable of the cities, and by
some who are not so fashionable.
They derive the name of Watering
Places, either from the facilities for sea
bathing which some ofthem afford or from the
mineral springs furnished by others; which
are found, or considered to be, beneficial te
health. And yet, many places, popular
resorts in summer by rusticators from the
cities, and as deserted in winter, as thronget
in summer, furnish neither but they arr
all, nevertheless, Watering Places.
These fashionable places are as numer

ANGLO-SAXONS AND ANGLO-AF-
RICANS.

We are always amused with certain Re
form Orators Of the country, who are for
ever curing the wounds they themselves
inAict on the "Apostate American People"
by fulsome laudations of what they call
" THE GREAT ANGLo-SAxoN RACE. There
is such refreshing selfexaltation in the
thng-such an indirect, "We thank Thee.
Lord, that thou hast made us of better stuff,
than the poor negro, for whom we plead"
and withal such poetic license used with
the facts of history, that we wonder they
don't feel ashamed of the romance they so
often repeat.
The Angles and the Saxons-historians
tell US, were both barbaric German tribes,
who stole the country of the Britons, and
appropriated it to their own uses; and here
in is the only coincidence we see, that allies
the present conglomeration called the Ame-
rican people, with their claimed illustrious
ancestors. 1t does seem to prove one thing,
namely that it runs in the blood to steal.
And yet even this fact, significant as it
is, cannot establish an Anglo-Saxon rela-
tiOnship, any more than would the plea,
that because the Saxons were once Slaves,
and because millions of American citizens
are now Slaves, that therefore these citizens
are Saxons.-Indeed the theft-argument,
strong at it is, sheds not half the proof of
inherited consanguinity that is furnished by
the Slavery syllogism, for the pseudo
Saxons of America expose their children
for sale in southern shambles to-day, Just
as did the Angles theirs at Rome in the
time Of Gregory, the Pope. : Notwith-
