And sometimes strong heart has broken on
account OF some fair lady, who wasn't worth a
single throb Of the faintest kind of heart;
though strong hearts seldom break of love- but
of an excess of bitterness.
We are of the opinion that lady, fair or
otherwise, who cannot be won without extraor>
binary exertion or pcrtinacity, can never be won
at all. Love goes where it is sent and cannot
be forced in any direction.
"a Bird in the hand is worth two in the
bush, " is summarily disposed of by saying that
the truth Of this depends altogether on the
character of the 'bird in hand' or those in the

specimen of the "inimitable Prcntician style

a moral and adorns tale." In explanation,
and as sort of guide to its popularity, we may
say that the beginning and ending of the story
of DR.. johnson and his fiddle, and the applica.
ton of it to u.s. is contained entire in the above
clip. We submit the point, pith, perlinency,
briiilancy and perspicuity of it, to discsimi-

4 her Majesty would undertake the journey She
seemsto be good sailor, from the frequency of
/ her journeys in the royal yacht and n voyage
across the Atlantic would be nothing to one
accustomed to the cross currents of the channel.
! Being on the American Continent she could
hardly escape visit to New York-perhaps to
Washington-and the result would be IN every

clever for John Bull-and il a collision should
ever happen between these powers, very much
believe Nnpoleon's navy aud army will prove
to be the most formidable also You will, in
