The F1irtation

'Tis true that Last night adored thee.
But twas moonlight. the song. and the wine,
The cool morning air has restored me,
And no longer deem thee divine.
1conf,ss thou art pretty AID tender.
And when thou can'st catch me again,
As last night. desperate bender.
Once more I'll submit to thy chain.
The fact is, dear Fanny, I'm human.
Very weak, 1 may say, On spree
And no matter what sort the woman,
I'm her slave if she ooisons to me.
But this cursed sobriety, ever.
Undoes every chain of delight,
And my msmory. by daylight. has never
Any sense of what takes place by night.
I'm man of most regular habit
When daylight comes round, on my word /;
And though loving. by night. a rabbit.
With the sunrise, I'm cool a curd.
I'm quite willing in moonlight for capture,
But she's bright woman whose skill
Having spelld the short hours with rapture.
With the daylight can fetter me still.
OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES the doctor who gives
people fts-of laughing, sent letter to the post
office Of a Ladies' Fair at Pittsfeld On the first
page he wrote:
I" Fair lady. whosoe'er thou art.
Turn this poor leaf with tenderest care,
And hush. oh hush thy breathing heart
The one thou lowest will be there"
On turning the " poor leaf" there was found a
one dollar bill, with some verses beginng
Fair lady, lift thine eyes and tell
If this is not truthful letter
This is the one Q) thou lowest well,
And nought(0 )can make thee love it better

In point Of admirable scholarship, profound and
genial discussion and acute cnticism, the Christian
Examiner can hardly be surpassed by any periodical
in this country. Even when the reader has occasion
to dissent most widely from its opinions or statements
he must always acknowledge the richness Of its
learning the Judicial emperatenes Of its tone, and its
spirit Of reverence and humanity. The present num-
Der s largely theological than ts usual issues
and touches several topics which lead at once into
the depths Of reg gious controversy. The articles en-
titled " Imagination in Theology, and The Two
Religions, will be recognized as possessing this char
scter. Among the miscellaneous papers, those on the
"Morsvian Brethren" and Carlyles Frederic" are
especially attractive.
