MIR. LOTHARIo,s APOLOGY.

We have not lately seen anything moro deliciousy
impudent and excellent than the suboined which er
plains itself 1t is not every man who caught in tn,
same act, could explain himself quite MS well as doe
the author.
Your coming in last night, my love,
Was something sudden. was helping Nell
10 tie the ribbons of her rgolette;
She put the crimson Of her mouth up--well,
I'm flesh md bood--and then you, singing, came
Into the room and tossed your head for shame.
Isaw sort of maiden Northern lights
Shoot up your cheeks and tremble in your eyes;
! like such things. like to see the wind
Drive frightened clouds across the tempestuou!
skies;
like the sea, and, when it's easily had
pretty woman-very mad!
/ like the dangerous and regal air
.lfou bear Queens name and Queen you are,)
With which you donned your Thibet opera cloak,
And casped it with diamond like n star.
Twas charming in my mistress. But, my life,
IL would not be so charming in my wife,
I like wild things, rs have said, but then
should not like to own them Who would be
Proprietor of earthquakes or loose hurricanes,
Or comets plunging in celestial seas2
Or wed maid that could, if she should please,
Give him touch Of one and all Of these2
Not I. Don't let female thunder storm
Brood in your eyes, with every nod and then
A flash Of angry lightning iou have had
Your March and April now be June again,
And let your fine cut eyebrows sken span
BE bows of promise to your favorite man.
I've had my laugh, and You your pout. and
(iou'll spoil that rose bud il you twist II SOY
Give me both hands that | may say "Good Bess.
The good Queen Bess,' and kiss you ere go;
The good Queen Dess whose heart and mind aud face
Teach me to love ALL wOncn-as n racel

Some years ago, in the New Hampshire Leg
islature, a new member, somewhat noted for
"pumping thunder" made speech-it was up
on a bill for taxing bank dividends-in which
he attempted to be very pathetic in favor of
widows who owned bank stock. "Yes, Mr.
Speaker" he exclaimed with indignant energy,
"the gentleman from Dover, who introduced
this bill, deaf to the cries of her orphan chill
dren, would strip the widow" but before he con-
cluded the sentence he was interrupted by a
laugh. Astonished, but undaunted he exclaim-
ed, with profound -feeling'I1"Gentlemen, it is
not subject oi not you
ping. Put on this tax, and you will drive the
widow to her last shift" Shouts of laughter
here petrifed him in his place, and he spoke no
more during the session.

AN IMPORTANT ApMIssIoN.-A recent mn

AN IMPORTANT ADMIssIoN.-A recent num-
ber of the Revue Des Deur Mondes, Roman
Catholic periodical of Paris, contains this un-
looked for (but true) admission:
"Much may be said on Protestant diversities
and sects, but one fact remains certain; it is,
that nations where the Bible circulates and is
read. have preserved strong, deep, and en-
during religious faith, while in the countries
where it is not known, one is obliged to deplore
a moral superfciality and want of principles,
for which a splendid uniformity of rites cannot
compensate. Let the learned theologians dis
cuss on certain passages,-on the authenticity
of such and such text,-what are such mseries
compared to the healthful and pure atmosphere
which the Bible spreads wherever it is read,
whether in low or elevated classes"
"This," adds moral Protestant writer, "is a
most precious avowal, and shows progress in
opinions, even here, which blind man alone
can deny"

REToRT By HORACE MANN.-In the Dray-
ton trial, which occurred at Washington, De-
cember, 1913, Mr.. Mann, who was counsel for
the slaves, made the point that the servtude Of
the negroes ought to be proved by something
else than the claim of the master; and likened
it to the case of an Indictment for stealing fox
es, which held by nature must be shown to have
been caught and subjected. While he was ex-
ercising this illustration, Mr.. District-Attorney
Key, the same who was shot last February by
Daniel E. Sickles, wrote the following squib,
and handed it over to the opposite counsel;
"To illustrate the point he's making:
In larceny there must he Il taking
a fox, he says, cannot he stoer,
Be he young, or be he an old 'un;
Pursuing hounds, saws he's mistaken,
AT least so far as to the taking
1t was not long before the following bitter re-
tort by Mr.. Mann was written on the back of
the same paper, which was left on the table for
the consideration of the District-Attorney.-
The allusion to 'ten dollars bill' regards the
the fee advice Mr.. Key received on each of
three hundred and forty indictments which
he caused to be filed against the prisoners of
the Pearl:
"Fox-hunting abroad, and slave-huntine in doors
| beg leave to suggest do not run all-fours
Foxes do not eat foxes-brute natures have bounds,
But Mr.. District Attorney, out-hounding the hounds
Hunts men, women and children, his pockets to fill,
On three hundred indictments at ten dollars a BILL"
